Serconnect endeavour to have qualified engineers on-site at the earliest point possible. With strategically located premises and operatives around the country, we have been known to be on-site in as little as 30 minutes.

When in contract with Serconnect, we agree Service Level Agreements (SLAs) in the event of a fault, and guarantee our attendance within a specific timeframe to assure you that help is on hand when needed.
Choosing Serconnect means you benefit from rapid response times, 24/7 standby cover and UK-wide coverage. We boast experienced engineers across a wide range of disciplines including Cable Jointing, Distribution Fitting, Commercial Electricians, Overhead Linesmen, SAP's and Commissioning Engineers catering for all eventualities so we can ensure your power distribution operates smoothly and comprehensively.
Though our fault response services are available when problems arise, it is much better to be proactive rather than reactive when it comes to electrical issues. Major faults can typically be prevented with regular substation maintenance and transformer maintenance, helping to identify and resolve issues before they potentially cause costs, downtime and damage to your system.
At Serconnect, our electrical emergency response covers everything from full or partial power loss, flickering lights, tripped circuits, overloaded systems, and appliance faults. Our services also include resolving safety risks such as exposed wiring, burning smells, or sparking sockets, as well as fixing non-compliant or outdated installations.

We repair storm damage, water ingress, and rodent-related faults, in addition to issues with meters, supply cables, or new connections. Whatever your problem, our diverse range of expertise ensures we can quickly and effectively resolve your issue.
