When it comes to appliance repairs, you want more than a quick fix—you want safety, reliability, and peace of mind. I specialise in washing machines, washer dryers, electric ovens, cookers, and tumble dryers, offering professional repairs, installations, and thorough post-repair safety checks.


Why Professional Repairs Matter


A badly wired appliance isn’t just inconvenient — it can be dangerous. Take a look at this example:


badly wired plug
Dodgy plug wiring – “before”

Problems with a badly wired plug:


  • Loose or exposed wires can create an electrical shock risk

  • Incorrect connections may cause the appliance to short circuit or trip fuses

  • Using extension leads increases the risk of overheating or fire

  • Water near the socket can be extremely hazardous if the wiring is not correctly insulated


This is exactly why professional repair and installation are critical.



Repairs Done Right


Here’s the same type of repair, done correctly:


correctly wired plug
Correctly wired plug – “after”

Every wire is correctly connected, plugs and sockets are secure, and the appliance is properly set up away from hazards like extension leads or water inlets. I make sure your appliance is not only working, but completely safe to use.



Post-Repair Safety Checks


Every repair or installation I carry out includes a comprehensive safety check, which covers:


  • Inspecting plugs and sockets to ensure all connections are secure

  • Ensuring appliances are not connected to extension leads, reducing fire risk

  • Checking water inlets and hoses so no leaks can reach electrical points

  • Looking for any loose parts or potential safety hazards


These checks prevent electrical hazards, water damage, and future breakdowns, giving you confidence that your appliance is safe to operate.
