The Paseo de la Explanada in Alicante, its palm-lined promenade beside the port.

Alicante is the centre of the area we cover, so it is where our response is quickest and where access is least likely to be the limiting factor.

The exception is the old town, where the streets are narrow, vehicle access is restricted and getting equipment to a door takes real time.

How quickly can we actually reach you in Alicante?

Across most of the city, 60 to 90 minutes from the point we accept the call is the honest figure, and central districts sit at the shorter end of that. What moves it is not distance but access: where you are in the city changes the last ten minutes far more than the first forty.

The old town is the clear case. Narrow streets, restricted vehicle access and buildings without anywhere to stop outside mean equipment has to be carried the final stretch, and a job that would take twenty minutes in a PAU flat takes longer before anyone has looked at a board. We factor that into the time we quote rather than discovering it on arrival.

Parking is the other variable, and it is seasonal. The Ensanche and the streets behind the seafront are materially harder in August and during fiestas than in February, and a call at 3 a.m. is a different journey from the same call at six in the evening.

What we do about it is simple: we give you a realistic window on the phone, not an optimistic one to secure the job. If the fault you describe is one where waiting is genuinely unsafe and we cannot get there fast enough, we say so instead of leaving you waiting on a promise. For anything involving smoke, fire or a burning smell, the correct first call is 112 rather than an electrician.

What we typically find here

  • Consumer units in Ensanche blocks where every circuit hangs off one or two RCDs, so a single failing appliance kills the whole flat
  • Old-town circuits that do not respect the flat boundaries you would expect, because risers were shared and extended over decades
  • Board labelling that describes what was true two owners ago
  • Pre-1970s flats with earthed sockets connected to nothing, usually found while investigating something else

Common questions

Do you charge more for a call-out in the old town?

The call-out reflects the hour and the realistic journey, and restricted access in the old town is part of that journey. Whatever the figure is, you hear it before we set off rather than on the invoice.

It is 3 a.m. and my whole flat has no power. What now?

First check whether neighbours also have none, which points to a distributor fault rather than your installation. Then look at the front of your consumer unit without removing any cover. If the main switch has tripped and will not stay in, that is a genuine emergency and we will come.

    For emergencies and repairs we tell you the call-out fee before anyone sets off, so you decide with the cost in front of you.

  • Free, fixed quotes for planned work

    Planned work such as EV chargers, air conditioning and solar is quoted free, as one written figure with no provisional items.

  • Nothing extra without your yes

    Beyond the agreed visit, nothing chargeable is done until you have approved it.
