What Electrical Repairs Can You Do?

Jack Jones Electrical can carry out electrical refurbishment, repairs and replacements for fuse boxes, flickering lights, damaged wiring, issues with plug sockets and other issues with your home or business wiring and electrical installations. Portable appliances that can be moved, such as white goods like washing machines and fridges, or lamps and other freestanding electrical items we can PAT test, but may not be able to repair. Our team can discuss your electrical needs and help give you complete peace of mind that your home is safe and working effectively.

Do You Need A Qualified Electrical To Carry Out Minor Electrical Repairs?

In a privately-owned residential property, legally you do not need to be a qualified electrical to carry out basic repairs. However, it is recommended that you work with professionals like Jack Jones Electrical to ensure safe working practices are used and that your electrical system isn’t compromised as a result of poor quality work, which could lead to fire risks and damage to your electrical equipment. Business premises need a qualified electrician for any electrical installation or repair work. Also, landlords need to work with qualified electricians to ensure tenant safety in rental properties.


What Are The Different Types Of Electrical Maintenance?

There are several types of electrical maintenance for commercial or rented properties. Preventive maintenance is carried out regularly to check for issues and ensure electrical safety by replacing parts before they cause issues. There is also corrective maintenance, which is used to fix issues that might be noticed during inspection. In some cases, emergency maintenance might be needed to fix problems such as faulty wiring or blown fuses.


How Often Should Preventive Maintenance Be Carried Out?

For businesses, preventive maintenance and inspections should be carried out at least once a year, and more frequently for electrical equipment or machinery that is used often or requires a lot of energy. In homes, regular inspection isn’t a legal requirement, but it’s recommended that you get an electrician to check your system whenever you make major upgrades, such as adding new sockets, lighting installations or other additions to your property. The expert team at Jack Jones Electrical can provide this as part of our commercial or domestic electrical services throughout Swadlincote, Derby and the surrounding area.


What's The Difference Between Electrical Refurbishment And Rewiring?

Electrical refurbishment is the process of repairing and testing existing wiring systems to ensure compliance and safety. If necessary, rewiring will be suggested to replace the original wiring and ensure it is safe and fit for purpose. Jack Jones Electrical can offer all these services and more, so contact us for all your electrical repair, installation and rewiring needs.
