Access and parking
A call-out in Battle often starts with a question about access. The older part of the town is compact, the centre draws visitors through most of the year, and the kerbside space nearest a property is not always free. So we ask on the phone where a van can go, whether there is a rear yard or a shared entrance, and how far the equipment has to be carried in.
Outside the town the picture changes. Houses stand back from single track lanes and shared drives, and the fuse board is not always where you would expect it: a garage, an outbuilding, a cupboard under the stairs of an older Wealden house. Before we set off we ask what you can see, where the incoming supply sits, and whether anything blocks the way in.
That planning matters most after dark. Unlit lanes, gated entrances and shared parking are much harder to work out at night, so anything you can tell us when you ring makes the visit go better: a gate code, which side of the building to come to, where the nearest light switch is. The phone is answered 24 hours a day, every day of the year, bank holidays included.
What we do
24/7Available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, with a fast response across the South East. We make the installation safe first, then explain the repair and the cost before any work starts.
Learn more
We specialise in finding and fixing electrical faults, tripping circuits and power loss. Faults are traced by systematic testing rather than guesswork, so the repair holds.
Learn more
Reliable installation and repair of internal and external lighting systems, from downlights and replacement fittings to garden, security and outside lighting.
Learn more
Full and partial electrical rewiring for houses and flats across the South East. Work can be staged room by room to limit disruption, and the property is left tested and certified.
Learn more
New fuse boards fitted, also known as fuse boxes, consumer units or consumer boards. A modern board adds RCD protection and makes future faults far easier to isolate.
Learn more
Supply, installation and testing of mains powered smoke and heat alarms, including interlinked systems for rented properties and new installations.
Learn more
Electrical Installation Condition Reports for rented and residential premises throughout the South East. We can arrange access with your tenants directly and return the report promptly.
Learn more
Our in-house team can design, install, commission and maintain Solar PV installations of all sizes, covering the whole job from roof survey through to inverter and battery set-up.
Learn more
Domestic and commercial car charger installations. We check the incoming supply can carry the load and position the unit to suit where you park.
Learn moreThe work itself
Most emergency calls follow a pattern: a circuit that will not stay on, a fuse board tripping every time the shower runs, a scorched socket, or lights failing across half the house. We trace the fault, make the installation safe, and explain what has caused it and what putting it right involves. Where a repair will hold, we say so rather than pushing you towards a full replacement.
Planned work runs alongside it: fuse board replacements, earthing and bonding upgrades, rewires, extra sockets and circuits, lighting, smoke and heat alarms, solar panels and EV charging points. Older houses in the town and along the lanes around it can turn up rubber or fabric cable, borrowed neutrals and alterations added by different hands over many years, so we test the installation before we price the work.
Householders, landlords, letting agents and small businesses across the town and the villages between it and the coast all ring the same number, and domestic, commercial and industrial work is covered. Quotes are free and carry no obligation, and prices are explained before anything starts. Emergency call-outs carry a call-out fee and then an hourly rate, both set out on the phone. CK Electrical is family run, Part P registered and fully insured, and certification is supplied.
Our process
You can call us at any hour, every day of the year, including bank holidays. In an emergency we ask what has stopped working and whether anything is hot, sparking or smelling of burning, and tell you what to switch off until we arrive. Booked work, from a landlord certificate to solar panels or EV charging, starts on the same call.
A Part P registered and fully insured engineer attends and makes the installation safe before anything else. Where there is a risk, the affected circuit or your fuse board is isolated, and anything that cannot be put right straight away is left in a safe condition. Planned work follows the same rule: circuits are proved dead before they are worked on.
We work from readings rather than assumptions. Testing can include continuity, insulation resistance, polarity, earth fault loop impedance and RCD testing. The results show where a fault sits, what an installation can safely take, and whether a problem is inside your property or on the incoming supply, which belongs to the distribution network operator and is reported free on 105.
Before any repair or installation begins, we explain the options: what needs doing now, what can safely wait, and whether repair or replacement is the sensible choice. Quotes are free and carry no obligation, and nothing goes ahead until you agree the price, so there are no call-out surprises. If parts or a return visit are needed, we tell you then.
The same qualified engineers who took your call carry out the work, whether that is an overnight repair, a fuse board replacement, new lighting, smoke and heat alarms, a rewire, an inspection, solar panels or an EV charging point. It is done to the current wiring regulations, with cables and accessories fixed securely and neatly, and disruption kept to a minimum.
Before we leave, the work is tested and checked in operation, and the working area is left tidy. You are told plainly what was done and anything worth keeping an eye on. Certification is supplied where the work calls for it, so you hold a written record of what was carried out and the results of the testing.
