Electrical Fault Repairs

Appliance Electrical Repairs

Many appliance faults are electrical rather than mechanical. Our technicians are qualified to safely diagnose and repair electrical faults across a wide range of household and commercial appliances.

Refrigeration

Fridges, freezers and commercial refrigeration units rely on several electrical components to keep running safely. We repair compressor electrical faults, defrost heater problems, thermostat wiring issues, and fan motor electrical faults across all major brands.

Laundry Appliances

Washing machines and tumble dryers can develop electrical faults over time that affect performance and safety. We repair washing machine motor faults, dryer heating element wiring, control board electrical issues, and pump motor electrical problems.

Kitchen Appliances

Electrical faults in kitchen appliances can be a serious safety risk if left unattended. We repair stove and oven element wiring, microwave high voltage issues, dishwasher motor electrical faults, and kettle or toaster element problems.

Air Conditioning

Air conditioning units depend on several electrical components to run efficiently. We repair compressor electrical faults, fan motor winding issues, control board repairs, and capacitor replacement for home and office aircon systems.

Common Causes of Electrical Faults

Electrical faults can show up in different ways, and understanding the risk level helps you know how urgently to act. Tripping breakers are usually caused by an overloaded circuit, a short circuit, or a faulty appliance, and carry a medium risk level. Flickering lights often point to a loose connection, voltage fluctuation, or a faulty bulb, also a medium risk.

A burning smell is a high-risk warning sign, usually caused by overheating wiring, a faulty outlet, or an overloaded circuit. A spark from an outlet is also high risk, typically caused by loose wiring, moisture, or a faulty device. Electric shock is the most serious warning sign, usually caused by a faulty appliance, improper grounding, or damaged wiring, and should be treated as high risk every time.

Benefits of Professional Electrical Services

Attempting to fix an electrical fault yourself, or hiring an unqualified handyman, can put your safety and your appliance at further risk. Professional electrical work is carried out to recognised safety standards, giving you peace of mind that the job has been done properly. All of our work complies with SANS wiring codes, so you can be confident it meets the legal requirements for electrical safety in South Africa.

Professional repairs also help protect your insurance cover, since many policies require electrical work to be carried out by a qualified technician to remain valid. Beyond compliance, quality workmanship simply lasts longer and performs more reliably, saving you from repeat call-outs and further faults down the line.

When to Call an Electrician

Some electrical faults are more urgent than others. If you notice any of the warning signs below, it's important to switch off the appliance at the power point and contact us immediately, rather than continuing to use it.

  • Burning smell from outlets or appliances
  • Frequent circuit breaker tripping
  • Spark or flash from electrical equipment
  • Discoloured or warm outlets and switches
  • Tingling sensation when touching appliances
  • Flickering or dimming lights
  • Buzzing or sizzling sounds from electrical equipment
