This depends on the type of appliance. But, as a general rule. Electrical appliances should be inspected at least every 2-3 years.

Some appliances, such as refrigerators and air conditioners, have specific inspection requirements that should be followed to make sure they are safe to use. For example, refrigerators should have the coils cleaned every 6 months to prevent a fire hazard.

If you are unsure about when your electrical appliances need to be inspected, it is best to consult with our electricians. They will be able to advise you on the specific requirements for each appliance and how often they should be inspected.

A buzzing sound coming from a power point is usually an indication that there is a problem with the power point. Some of the most common causes include a loose fitting, a faulty transformer, or an issue with the electrical wiring.

If you are hearing a buzzing sound coming from your power point, it is best to consult with our licensed electrician to have the problem diagnosed and fixed. Attempting to fix the problem yourself could result in serious injuries.

Everyone should be aware of a few common electrical hazards at home. First, always be careful when plugging in or unplugging appliances. If an appliance has a frayed cord, don’t use it — replace it immediately. Second, never overload an electrical outlet. If you have too many things plugged in, unplug some of them. Third, never touch an electrical appliance if you are wet or standing in water. Finally, ensure all your wiring is up to code and that there are no exposed wires anywhere in your home. If you see any sparks or flames coming from an outlet or appliance, turn it off and call an electrician immediately.

An electrical safety check is an inspection of a building’s electrical wiring and equipment to ensure that it meets safety standards. The inspection is performed by a licensed electrician, who will look for any potential hazards such as frayed wires, broken fixtures, and the overloading of circuits.

The electrician will recommend remedial repairs or upgrades if any unsafe conditions are found. It’s important to have regular electrical safety checks done to minimise the risk of fire or electrocution.

There could be a few different reasons why your lights may be flickering. Here are a few possibilities:

1. Loose lightbulbs — If a lightbulb is not tightened correctly in its socket, it can cause the bulb to flicker. Make sure all of your lightbulbs are tight and snug in their sockets.
2. Dimmer switches — If you have dimmer switches, they may be causing the flickering. Dimmer switches can cause flickering if they are old or worn out. Try calling us to replace your dimmer switch with a new one to see if that solves the problem.
3. Faulty wiring — If your home has old or faulty wiring, it can cause your lights to flicker.
