Repairs and fault finding
Need a fault traced?
Power loss, trips, flickering lights and warm sockets can have more than one cause. Changing a fitting does not always fix the fault. We test the circuit, find the cause and make the area safe.
We will check availability and explain the call-out charge.
See our emergency electrician service.
Consumer units and fuse boards
A consumer unit, or fuse board, protects the circuits in your home. An older fuse box does not always need replacing, so we test first. If an upgrade is needed, our electrician in Largs checks the wiring first. We label each circuit, test the work and give you the right paperwork.
For safety advice, see Electrical Safety First.
Rewiring, sockets and lighting
Damaged fittings, too few sockets and frequent faults can point to old wiring. They do not always mean a rewire. We do full and partial rewires. We also add sockets, indoor and outdoor lighting, cooker and shower circuits and outdoor power. We check a circuit is safe before adding to it.

24/7 emergency electrician in Largs for power loss and faults
We offer 24/7 emergency help, with attendance subject to availability. Call with your postcode and describe the fault. We will tell you whether we can attend, the likely arrival time and the call-out charge.
Keep clear of hot, wet or sparking fittings, and do not keep resetting a breaker that trips again. If you see smoke or fire, leave the property and call 999.

Experience on real jobs
Kitchen rewire, Sinclair Drive, Largs
A homeowner on Sinclair Drive in Largs was turning their kitchen into a modern open-plan kitchen, dining and living space. The old wiring needed updating to suit the new layout.
We installed new wiring, extra sockets, LED downlights and feature wall lighting. Once the work was complete, we tested the new circuits to make sure everything was safe and working as it should.
Consumer unit upgrade on Glen Avenue
We replaced an old fuse board with a new RCBO consumer unit. We checked the existing circuits before connecting them and tested them again afterwards.

Largs electrician FAQs
How much does an electrician in Largs cost?

How much does it cost to rewire a house in Largs?
It depends on the size of the home, how much wiring needs replacing and the access, says DTEC Electrical in Largs. A flat costs less than a large seafront villa, and a part rewire costs less than a full one. We test first and give you a written quote, with a 12-month guarantee.
How much does a new fuse board cost in Largs?
Fuse board swaps with DTEC Electrical in Largs start at £300, as on Glen Avenue, where we fitted a new RCBO consumer unit. The final price depends on the number of circuits, the protection needed and any earthing work. We test your wiring first, then confirm the price in writing.
Why do my electrics keep tripping in Largs?
Damp, a faulty appliance or too much on one circuit are the usual causes in Largs homes, and DTEC Electrical tests the circuit to find which. Note which switch dropped, unplug what was running and reset it once. If it goes again, leave it off and call us on 07882 372474.
Does sea air damage outdoor electrics in Largs?
Yes, and DTEC Electrical often finds salt-worn sockets and lights near the Largs seafront. Salt and damp corrode metal parts and seals, which can trip the power. We test the fitting and the circuit, then replace only what has failed with sealed IP65 fittings made for coastal weather.
