Emergency Electrician in Jeddah
Some electrical faults can wait until morning and some cannot. The difference matters, so this page explains it before it explains how to reach us.
What actually counts as an emergency
Sparking from a socket or board, a burning or melting-plastic smell, unusual heat at a socket or switch, crackling from the distribution board, or water reaching electrical wiring — none of these wait. Nor does a total loss of power to your property when the rest of the street still has supply. A single dead light or one non-working socket, by contrast, can be scheduled for the next day at lower cost.
What to do before we arrive
Switch off at the main breaker if the board is safe and dry to reach. Don't touch any wet appliance or cable, and don't keep resetting a breaker that trips immediately — repeated tripping means the breaker is doing its job and preventing a real hazard. Keep children away from the area, and if there's a burning smell, open windows to ventilate.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. The emergency line is open 24 hours a day, every day including Fridays and public holidays, on 0564036091. Non-urgent scheduled work runs Saturday to Thursday, 8am to 8pm.
No. A breaker that trips the instant you reset it is signalling a short circuit or earth leakage, and it is preventing a genuine hazard. Repeated attempts can damage the breaker itself and remove that protection. Leave the circuit off and call us.
Look at neighbouring buildings and the street lighting. If they have power, the fault is inside your property and needs an electrician. If the whole area is dark, it's a network outage and calling an electrician won't help.
Your district and address, a description of what happened and when it started, and whether you've isolated the supply. That lets us bring the right parts on the first visit rather than needing a second.
