Flickering of lights: One of the most common light switch problems is lights constantly flickering in a household. This is often due to either a poor connection to the switch terminals or simply loose wiring. However, it could also be down to exposed wires touching the switch, so make sure to have a spacious area where you can put bare wires.

Loose or damaged wiring: Loose wiring is caused by the wires overheating due to lack of insulation, which is often a sign that rewiring is necessary, which you can find out more about in our "Rewiring a house" Service

Circuit breaker tripping: One significant problem is the circuit breaker tripping or the fuse box burning out. The most common reason for this is an overloaded circuit, which means that too many appliances are connected; this is extremely dangerous, as it can often lead to fires, so be aware of the number of appliances you have plugged into a socket. It is important to note that if you install new lights with an old fuse box, the likelihood is the fuse box will blow, due to the amplifier pulling too much power.
