No one likes to admit they can’t solve seemingly minor electrical problems.
And if it’s in the middle of the night or right when you walk into the house after a hard day at the office, you just want things back to normal ASAP. Does that mean you should attempt to fix electrical issues yourself?
Well, small things like changing light bulbs, checking the wattage and replacing or checking your circuit breaker for tripping is all doable stuff for the amateur.
But in most cases, tempting though it is to have a crack yourself (thanks to Mr Google and YouTube) in the interests of health, safety and downright mortality, it’s best to call in the professionals. In Hawkes Bay the team at Harkness Electrical are all fully qualified to repair your breakdowns.
It quite simple: when in doubt call us!
It’s time to call Harkness Electrical when:
