Changing a standard switch to a dimmer switch requires first checking that the light fitting is compatible. Standard LED bulbs are often not dimmable. Only 'dimmable' labelled LEDs work well with a dimmer. Old halogen lights dim without issue, but they are rarely used now due to their energy consumption. To add a new socket where there was none before, there are two approaches. The first is to chase the wall. This involves opening a channel in the wall from the nearest socket to the new point, running the cable inside, and then closing the chase with plaster. This is the most visually clean option but involves a small amount of building work and repainting the wall. Timeframe: 4-6 hours plus wall repair.

Yes, the emergency service operates 24 hours a day, including public holidays and weekends. If your home loses power or you detect a burning smell from the electrical panel, you can request immediate assistance, and a technician will arrive as soon as possible. Many of our clients live in Northern Europe and own apartments on the Costa Blanca for rent or holiday use. When there's an electrical problem and the flat is rented or has seasonal tenants, they need a trustworthy person who can manage the repair without the owner needing to be present. Electrical panels are the most frequent job in the area. Apartment blocks from the 80s and 90s, which make up the majority in Torrevieja and its surroundings, have old circuit breakers that no longer comply with current regulations and trip easily when modern, higher-consumption appliances are connected. Replacing the entire panel with an updated one, including a new differential and circuit breakers, is a half-day job that solves years of problems.
