RCD tripping
Trips and won't reset, or trips at random. Usually a faulty appliance or one bad circuit — we find which, fast.
Common call outs
The faults we get called to most.
If yours isn't here, call anyway. Describing the fault on the phone often tells us half of what we need before we arrive.
Partial or full power loss
Some sockets dead, one floor off, or everything down. We isolate the cause and restore what's safe to restore.
Burning smells & scorching
Hot sockets, scorched faceplates or a fishy burning smell. Don't use the fitting — call, this one shouldn't wait.
Flickering lights
One room or the whole house. Can be a fitting, a loose connection or a supply issue — we track it down.
Fuse box faults
Breakers that won't hold, buzzing boards, blown fuses on older gear. We carry replacement breakers and fuses on the van.
Storm & water damage
Water in fittings, damaged outdoor supplies, weather-related faults. We make it safe first, then fix it properly.
Why first-visit fixes
The van carries the parts. That's the trick.
Most emergency electricians diagnose the fault, then leave to get parts. MPS vans carry a large stock of replacement circuit breakers, fuses, main switches, lights, switches and sockets — because after thirty years of reactive call outs in Leeds, we know what fails.

How a call out works
Three steps from fault to fixed.
Call and describe it
Tell us what's happening — what trips, what's dead, what you smelled. We'll tell you honestly when we can get to you, and what to do in the meantime.
We find the actual fault
Thirty years of fault finding means we test methodically instead of guessing. You get told what's wrong and what it costs before we fix it.
Fixed and made safe
Most faults are repaired on the first visit from van stock. If a bigger job is needed, we make everything safe and quote it fixed-price.

Questions
Emergency call out questions, answered straight.
Are you really available 24 hours?
Yes — MPS operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for emergency call outs in Leeds. Call any time; how fast we reach you depends on where you are and what else is on, and we'll tell you honestly on the phone.
My RCD keeps tripping — can I do anything before you arrive?
Often, yes. Unplug appliances one at a time and try resetting — if it holds after one is unplugged, you've likely found the culprit. If it still won't reset, leave it off and call us.
What does a call out cost?
We'll tell you the cost when you call, before anyone travels. Once the fault is found, you get the repair price before we fix it — no meter running behind your back.
Do you handle commercial emergencies too?
Yes. MPS runs reactive maintenance for shops, offices and industrial units across Leeds, and we're used to working around trading hours.
The power's off — is it definitely my wiring?
Not always. If your neighbours are off too, it's likely a network outage rather than your installation. If it's just your property, that's when we come in.
What if the fault points to a bigger problem?
We make everything safe first, explain what we found, and quote any bigger work — a fuse box upgrade or rewire — at a fixed price. No pressure, no scare tactics.
