Meet James
“My name's James Leslie. I'm an electrician here in Brechin, and before that I was an electrical engineer in the RAF — 40 years in the trade all told. If your power goes off at 2am and you ring, it's me who picks up, not a call centre. I'll tell you what I think the fault is, what it's likely to cost and when I can get to you.”
One job: electrical emergencies, day and night
24/7 Emergency Electrician Brechin is a local service run by James Leslie from his base in Brechin, Angus. It exists to do one thing: pick up urgent electrical calls at any hour and get a qualified electrician to your door as quickly as possible.
The usual reasons people ring are no power, a fuse board that won't stay on, a smell of burning, or water reaching the electrics. James makes everything safe first, tells you plainly what has gone wrong, and agrees the price of any repair with you before he starts.
