Part P registered emergency electricians covering BN43 across Shoreham-by-Sea and the surrounding area, 24 hours a day. One call, a real electrician on the phone, and a van on the way.
The housing we work on in Shoreham-by-Sea
Shoreham combines an old town core with Victorian terraces, interwar housing, and the distinctive Shoreham Beach housing on the shingle spit.
What that means on the day varies house by house, so we test before quoting rather than pricing an assumption.

Rented property in BN43
We inspect and certify rented homes across Shoreham-by-Sea and Southwick, Lancing, Sompting, Kingston Buci, Shoreham Beach. Rented homes in England need a satisfactory EICR at least every five years and before a new tenancy, and the landlord page sets out the dates and the remedial process in full.
Landlord certificates
Shoreham Beach, and building close to the water
Shoreham Beach is unlike anywhere else we work. Built on a shingle spit, much of it began as informal housing and has been rebuilt and extended over generations, with a great deal of very modern replacement building alongside older properties.
The proximity to salt water is the constant. External accessories, garden supplies and anything in an unheated space corrode faster here, and installations need specifying with that in mind rather than as an afterthought.

What we do in Shoreham-by-Sea
Every service below is covered in Shoreham-by-Sea 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 Shoreham-by-Sea customers ask before they book.
What ingress rating do outdoor sockets need on Shoreham Beach?
At minimum a weatherproof enclosure suited to the exposure, and in practice we specify above the bare minimum here because of the salt. The rating matters less than the installation detail: correct glands, correct orientation and a seal that will still be doing its job in five years.
Do you work on houseboats or moorings?
Shore supplies to moorings are specialist work with their own requirements around earthing and RCD protection, and we would want to look at the specific arrangement before committing. Call and describe the setup and we will tell you honestly whether it is one for us.
Do you charge more at night in Shoreham-by-Sea?
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 Shoreham-by-Sea?
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.
