Commercial call outs
A power fault in a shop or cafe is not only an electrical problem, it is lost trade. Tills stop, card terminals stop, and chillers begin to warm. Emergency calls are taken from shops, salons, restaurants and offices, and the phone is answered 24 hours a day, every day of the year, nights, weekends and bank holidays included. In a compact city centre, a unit that goes dark is noticed by everyone passing.
Small commercial premises are rarely straightforward. A unit that has passed through several tenancies tends to carry the wiring of all of them: a circuit added for a coffee machine, a shop front spur nobody can account for, extraction fitted years after the rest. In older buildings the routes are awkward and the alterations are hidden. When a fault trips the fuse board, the first job is to establish what is actually connected, and we test rather than guess.
Kitchens, air conditioning, extraction and commercial refrigeration draw far more than a domestic circuit was ever meant to, and on the coast south of Chichester the summer trade pushes that equipment hardest. Our commercial and industrial work covers three phase distribution boards as well as single phase final circuits. Where the installation allows it, an unaffected section can often be kept live while a repair is arranged.
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.

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.

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 moreBeyond the repair
An out of hours call out usually begins as a repair and ends as a conversation about the cause. Once the immediate fault is made safe, the wider installation matters: whether the fuse board is protecting the circuits properly, whether RCD or RCBO protection is in place, and whether earthing and bonding meet the current wiring regulations. In premises altered many times over, that is where the surprises sit. You are told what needs attention and what can wait.
Let property brings its own paperwork. Flats above shops in the older streets, converted premises and houses along the coast all need periodic inspection, and we carry out EICRs, the remedial work that follows, and smoke and heat alarm installation. Certification is supplied for the work we do. Where a report has come back with codes on it, the findings are explained in plain language rather than left for you to decipher.
CK Electrical covers a good deal more than the city itself. Bognor Regis, Selsey and the Witterings lie on the coast, with Midhurst and Petworth inland to the north. Domestic work sits alongside the commercial side, so a call in Chichester might be a rewire, extra sockets and circuits, a lighting upgrade, solar panels or an EV charging point. Quotes are free and carry no obligation, and prices are explained before any work begins.
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.
