Amersham Sockets, Switches & Fault Finding
Amersham is close enough to our base that a first visit for sockets & fault finding usually fits into the same week you enquire.
Working across the Buckinghamshire corridor around A413, A404 and M25 J18 (approx. 7 miles), we plan our week to make time-boxed local visits practical rather than expensive. In Amersham that means real coverage of Chesham, Little Chalfont and Chalfont St Giles alongside the town itself, and no juggling of a call-out charge on top of a small sockets & fault finding job.
Based at 14 Kelly Road, High Wycombe HP11 1BW. Domestic only.

Talk through the symptoms

On-site tests

Get a price that's actually accurate
A short visit lets us price your Amersham sockets & fault finding against the installation you actually have — not a generic Buckinghamshire average.
Questions we get asked most
- Can you find the fault without ripping walls out?
- Almost always. Insulation and continuity tests point us to the circuit and often the section.
- Can you add spurs off existing sockets?
- In many cases, as long as the ring circuit and load rules allow it. We'll check first.
- Can you fit USB sockets?
- Yes, single or twin sockets with USB-A and USB-C ports, replacing existing outlets like-for-like.
- Do you fit outdoor sockets?
- Yes, IP-rated outdoor sockets on RCD protection, with cable routed properly through the wall.
