4 electrical switches to be changed

£150

Frank Whipple Estate, Greater London, E14

13th Nov 2025

I am changing my corridor switches. I have done 3, but the main one (with wires feeding electricity in other rooms) is giving me trouble. I need help with that one. In the kitchen, one if my dimmer switch stopped working, I would like to have this checked. Finally, I have two other switches, for bedroom lighting and bathroom lighting, which need changing. They are simple ones. The property is a new build from 2019. I’ll share some photos of the current terminal connections and of the switches I’d like to use

I messed up with my electrical setup quite a lot and hired Arun to sort it out. He took the time to properly understand how the wiring worked before fixing it, to get it to behave exactly as I wanted it. He was very friendly and very respectful. I’ll definitely reach out to him again.

Fix a fuse on electric heater.

£120

Purfleet, Essex

10th Nov 2025

We have electric heaters in our flat. Two of them work perfectly and have never had an issue with either of them. The one in the living room stopped working a year ago and we bought a whole new heater and had it replaced. However it is now not working again. It stopped turning on but a couple weeks ago it decided to turn on and work again but this morning it’s stopped which leads us to believe it’s the fuse that is probably the issue.
