An electrical emergency can jeopardise the safety of you, your home and your loved ones. And that’s why it’s important to seek prompt and reliable help. You don’t want to be waiting around for hours – or days – for an electrician. No, you want someone who can be there straight away.
Metropolitan Electrical offers 24-hour service, every day of the year. In fact, our rapid response means that you can expect us at your door within an hour* of your call.
Metropolitan has all the tools and equipment in their fully stocked vans needed to deal with electrical emergencies, so any electrical problems will be repaired on the spot. There will be no call backs to finish jobs with us. We are prepared for any electrical crisis with everything needed to repair any electrical problems such as broken hot water systems, power outages and any electrical fault.
The first thing to check if you have a power failure at home is whether it’s you or a general blackout. This is easy enough to do at night because if it’s just you, the streetlights will still be on as well as the neighbour’s lights. During the day you can just check with a neighbour before having a look at your switchboard to see what’s happened.
Sometimes a power outage is only confined to one circuit in the home and if you can work out what caused it – a faulty appliance for instance – you can remove the cause and switch the circuit breaker back on. If you don’t know why the power is out, it’s time to call an emergency electrician.
If it is a blackout of the whole area, try not to use up the battery on your phone in case the outage goes on for a while. It’s also important that you keep the fridge closed so that it remains properly cold for as long as possible.
If it’s dark, we don’t recommend using candles because they are a fire hazard and you really don’t want to be attempting to put out a fire when the lights are off.
No one plans for an electrical emergency at 10pm on a Sunday night. You can’t live without electricity, so paying to have it restored is a necessary expense. But with Metropolitan, you don’t have to worry if you can’t afford to pay immediately.
Along with no extra charges for after hours, we offer finance options** with reputable providers such as Zip and HummLoan.
You have the flexibility of weekly, fortnightly or monthly instalments. Your electrician can take you through the easy application process on site and approval usually takes only a few minutes.
We also accept payment by cash, cheque and credit card (Visa, Mastercard or American Express).
So, if you want fully licensed and qualified emergency electricians, contact us today.
An electrical emergency can pose a serious risk to your home, family and friends. Some of the most common emergencies include:
In reality, not everyone views an emergency in the same way. So no matter how you see it, Metropolitan doesn’t judge. When something goes wrong with your electronics or wiring, call an expert if it feels wrong.
When the power goes out, there are a few easy things you can do, for your safety.
First, check your switchboard. It may just be a blown fuse which can be turned back on.
If not, next you’ll need to check with your energy provider if there’s a planned or widespread outage. Power outage maps should be readily available to confirm this or not.
It’s also wise to check with the neighbours. They could be facing similar issues. Also, look outside to see if there is any damage to your powerlines. Be sure to stay away from fallen powerlines or risky situations. Call the emergency services if this is the case.
If there’s no easy answer, call in a licensed electrician. It’s always better to be proactive when it comes to a dangerous situation.
