Restore power (Short-circuit)

Power cut / Short-circuit – Rate

You arrived at this page because you had a short circuit or a power failure. If the power failure or short circuit is only occurring in your own home, check the meter cupboard. Switch the earth leakage switch back on and check per group whether a defective appliance in your household is the cause of the power failure. Don’t take any risks with short circuits and always investigate the cause properly. If you cannot solve the problem, call in an experienced electrician. By filling in the form above MrFix will connect you within 1 hour to a professional who will solve your problem.

MrFix works with standard rates: for an electrician this is €85/hour including VAT and call-out charge. Below you will find our customer reviews, recently placed electrical jobs, information about warranty and rush jobs.

A power cut or short circuit always occurs at the least convenient moment. If you know which device caused the problem you may be able to restore power supply by disconnecting that device and after that switch-on power again in your meter cupboard. But if this doesn’t work we recommend hiring an expert electrician. Home repair service MrFix gets you a qualified electrician for every electrical repair job. We work quickly, conveniently and at fair rates.
MrFix rates are transparent: no ‘hidden’ costs. For electricians we charge a fixed rate of €85 per hour including VAT and call-out charge.

  • You buy the materials or the expert does

For €9.95 the expert guarantees their labour (and the materials, if they supply them) for a minimum of 3 months (recommended).

Quotes versus Estimates

We send you the expert’s estimate for your Restore power (Short-circuit) job with their appointment proposal. For jobs over ~€1.000 we recommend that you request a quote (fixed price), not only for maximum certainty but also because for big quote jobs most experts offer a discount on the hourly rate (often 10-20%).

Both quotes and estimates are free, but a quote usually requires a paid inspection visit first.

MrFix is there to clear up any misunderstandings.

Even after this thorough preparation a problem could occur. If you’re not 100% satisfied you can tell the expert via Chat what you want them to do about it. Please make reasonable dates & times available for them to return under their guarantee. You can count on our expert (or their liability insurance) to make it right!
