The housing we work on in Littlehampton
Littlehampton mixes Victorian terraces near the river and seafront with substantial interwar and post war housing, plus riverside and harbour development.
What that means on the day varies house by house, so we test before quoting rather than pricing an assumption.

Rented property in BN17

Landlord certificates
River, harbour and low lying ground
Littlehampton sits low, either side of the Arun, and ground conditions matter more here than in most towns. Properties with cellars, ground floor circuits in older buildings and anything buried in the garden all live in a damper environment than the county average.
Damp does not cause dramatic failures. It causes insulation resistance to fall slowly over years until an RCD starts tripping for no obvious reason, which is precisely the fault people find hardest to chase themselves.

What we do in Littlehampton
Every service below is covered in Littlehampton and the surrounding area from the same emergency line, day or night.

24 hour emergency call-outs
One number, answered by a person, day or night. If you have no power, a burning smell from a socket, or a fuse board that will not reset, this is the emergency electrician call-out you want. We cover Lewes and the rest of Sussex around the clock, including weekends and bank holidays.

Fault finding and repairs
An RCD that keeps tripping, sockets not working, lights flickering, or power dropping out for no obvious reason. Intermittent electrical faults are the ones that cost people money. We use continuity, insulation resistance and RCD testing to prove the cause rather than guess at it, then repair it once and retest.

Fuse board and RCD upgrades
Fuse box replacement and consumer unit upgrades, from old rewireable fuses to a metal board with an RCBO on every circuit. A modern board protects each circuit on its own, so one faulty appliance no longer takes the whole house out. Tested, certified and notified under Part P, usually in a day.

Rewiring and part rewires
Full house rewires and part rewires for properties with rubber, lead or failing early PVC cable, or lighting circuits with no earth. Cable does not last forever, and the test readings tell you whether yours has anything left. Most rewires take two to five days, with power back on each evening.

EICR and fixed wire testing
An Electrical Installation Condition Report is a health check on the fixed wiring: what is safe, what needs attention, and what has to be fixed now. Every circuit tested to BS 7671, every observation coded C1, C2, C3 or FI, and a written report you can hand to a buyer or an agent.

Landlord safety certificates
Rented homes in England need a satisfactory landlord electrical safety certificate, an EICR, at least every five years and at the start of every new tenancy. We test, code the observations honestly, quote any remedial work separately, and reissue the report once it is satisfactory inside the 28 day window.

The things Littlehampton customers ask before they book.
Why would damp cause my RCD to trip?
Moisture provides a path for small amounts of current to leak to earth. Individually each leak is tiny, but an RCD adds them all up, and once the total reaches the trip threshold the device operates. It is why damp related tripping often appears gradually and gets worse in wet weather.
Do you cover Rustington and East Preston?
Yes, both fall within our Littlehampton coverage for planned work, and we will give you an honest arrival window for anything out of hours.
Do you charge more at night in Littlehampton?
Out of hours work carries a higher call-out rate, quoted before we set off. See the prices page for current rates.
Can you do a landlord EICR in Littlehampton?
Yes. We test, code the observations, quote remedial work separately and reissue the report once it is satisfactory. See landlord certificates.

Trusted emergency electricians in Sussex
We have been covering Sussex for 25 years. In that time the wiring regulations have moved through several editions and consumer units have changed shape more than once, while the faults themselves have stayed much the same: loose connections running hot, tired cable, and protection that was never fitted in the first place.
That experience is the difference between guessing and knowing. It is also why we can usually tell you on the phone whether a fault needs a van tonight or a booking on Tuesday, which saves you the out of hours rate more often than you might expect.
TO CONFIRM: add the year you started trading, your scheme registration number and your public liability cover. Only list credentials you can evidence.
