Electrician Amsterdam

An English-speaking electrician in Amsterdam

Amsterdam has a large international community, and dealing with an electrical emergency in a language you do not speak is stressful. Our engineers and office staff speak English, so you can arrange everything without a language barrier.

Working in old buildings

Much of Amsterdam predates the war, and many houses have been split into apartments over the years. That produces meter cupboards nobody ever designed — circuits running through three homes and wiring from four different decades layered on top of each other.

In the canal ring and the Jordaan, listed-building rules often apply. Chasing walls may not be permitted, so we use surface-mounted conduit in a sympathetic finish or pull new cable through existing routes.

What we are called out for most

The most common emergency call we receive in Amsterdam is an RCD that keeps tripping. In split buildings the cause regularly lies in a neighbour’s installation, because circuits were never properly separated. We test each dwelling in turn to find the source.

Fixed rates across Amsterdam

We charge no call-out fees and apply the same rate throughout Amsterdam, whether you are in the centre or in Zuidoost. You hear the price before we begin.
