Routine Electrical Work for Homes and Businesses
AC1 Electrical Services Ltd provides routine electrical maintenance, repairs, fault finding and small electrical works for homeowners, landlords and businesses across the South East of England.
From replacing worn electrical accessories and repairing faulty lighting to installing additional sockets, relocating switches and investigating recurring electrical faults, our electricians can complete a wide range of everyday electrical work safely and professionally.
This service is intended for work that does not require emergency attendance but cannot always be accurately priced in advance. Customers can select an available appointment online, accept the hourly pricing and terms, and receive an invoice after the work has been completed.

Straightforward Hourly Pricing for Variable Electrical Work
Some electrical maintenance jobs are difficult to price accurately without first investigating the installation. The time required can depend on the condition of the existing wiring, accessibility, the cause of the fault, the type of replacement product and whether additional defects are discovered.
Attending the property solely to prepare a fixed quotation can also be disproportionate for smaller jobs. Our hourly electrical maintenance service allows customers to book an electrician directly without arranging a separate quotation visit.
The electrician will assess the work on arrival and complete it wherever reasonably possible. If the visit identifies substantial installation or remedial work beyond the original request, AC1 Electrical Services Ltd can provide a separate quotation before that additional work proceeds.

Help Us Prepare for Your Appointment
When booking, customers should provide a clear description of the work required and identify each task they would like the electrician to consider during the visit.
Photographs can be uploaded where available. These may help us understand the existing installation, identify likely materials and ensure the electrician arrives appropriately prepared. Photographs do not always establish the complete scope or condition of an electrical installation and therefore do not constitute a fixed quotation.

Is Your Electrical Problem Urgent?
This service is intended for routine, non-urgent electrical maintenance and repairs.
Do not wait for a routine appointment if there are exposed live wires, smoke, sparks, a strong burning smell, electrical equipment becoming dangerously hot or another immediate risk of electric shock or fire.
Keep away from the affected area, do not touch exposed wiring and only switch off the affected circuit or electrical supply if it is safe to do so.
For urgent electrical problems, use our Emergency Electrician service.
