When the lights suddenly go out in South Hams, it can feel like the whole day stops. Whether you’re at home, managing a holiday let, or running a rental property, power issues disrupt plans and cause real stress. You might have seen a bright yellow electricity helicopter buzzing overhead recently, tackling electrical faults from the sky. It’s an impressive sight, but here at Swaye Electrical Services Ltd, we rely on something a bit more down-to-earth: our trusty vans with navy tops and white arrows. We get to most places in Devon quickly, ready to fix your electrical problems without the need for a helicopter.



Fast Help When You Need It Most


Electrical problems rarely happen at convenient times. Power cuts, tripped circuits, or faulty wiring often strike when you least expect them. For homeowners and property managers in South Hams, these issues can mean lost bookings, unhappy guests, or even safety risks.


Swaye offers emergency call-outs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We understand that some problems cannot wait:


  • Loss of power affecting your home or rental property

  • Safety concerns like exposed wiring or faulty breakers

  • Concerns about faulty solar panels or inverters

  • Any electrical fault that needs immediate attention


Our goal is to respond within 2 to 4 hours during emergencies. We know how important it is to get your property back up and running quickly, especially if you manage holiday lets or Airbnbs. Guests expect a smooth stay, and we help you keep your reputation intact by fixing issues fast.


We don’t just patch things up. Our electricians perform thorough fault-finding to identify the root cause. Then we fix the problem safely and ensure it won’t come back. No quick fixes or cowboy jobs here, just reliable, professional service.

Planned Maintenance and Peace of Mind


Waiting for an emergency call-out is stressful and costly. That’s why we recommend regular electrical maintenance to prevent problems before they start. Swaye Electrical offers planned visits tailored to your needs:


  • Regular electrical safety checks to spot issues early

  • Full fault finding and repairs to keep systems running smoothly

  • Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs) and safety reports for landlords and holiday lets

  • Upgrades, rewires, and installations of solar panels or battery systems to improve reliability and reduce energy costs


For example, one holiday let owner in South Hams booked us for a yearly maintenance visit. During the check, we found a faulty circuit breaker that could have caused a power cut during peak season. Fixing it early saved them from losing bookings and guest complaints.



Flexible Service That Fits Your Schedule


We know managing properties means juggling many tasks. That’s why we offer flexible reactive work both during normal hours and out of hours. Whether you need a quick fix on a weekend or a scheduled upgrade during the week, we work around your availability.


Our team is familiar with the unique challenges of South Hams properties, from older cottages to modern holiday homes. We bring the right tools and experience to every job, ensuring a smooth process from start to finish.


If you ever spot that yellow helicopter again, wave for us—we’re probably not far behind, ready to get your power back on the ground.
