What is included
Long AC running hours load circuits heavily through the summer, while heat and humidity work on outdoor fittings and loose terminations. Our own electricians test before they change anything and explain the fault in plain terms. Where work may need DEWA or building approval, that is identified at the site visit and we prepare the paperwork that is asked for.
- Fault finding on tripping breakers and dead circuits
- Distribution board repairs, breakers and earth leakage devices
- Sockets, switches, dimmers and isolators
- Indoor lighting, chandeliers and LED drivers
- Garden, facade and terrace lighting
- Ceiling fans and extractor fans
- Partial and full rewiring
- Thermal imaging of boards and connections under load
- Urgent attendance between 08:00 and 19:00, Monday to Saturday
How it works
The same method on every job, so the result does not depend on who is on shift.
- Survey and diagnosis. A technician inspects the system or surface, takes readings and photographs, and explains what was found in plain language.
- Written quotation. You receive a written quotation against a defined scope before any work starts. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately.
- Protected, supervised work. The work area is protected and isolated, and the job is carried out by our own technicians under a named supervisor.
- Testing. Every job ends with a measured test suited to the discipline, so the result is a reading and a photograph and not an opinion.
- Report and warranty. The completed report reaches you within the hour. Any failed point is put right free of charge within 48 hours.
Electrical symptoms and what they usually point to
| Symptom | Likely cause | First step |
|---|---|---|
| Main breaker trips when several AC units run | Overloaded circuit or a breaker weakened by heat | Measure the load on each circuit and test the breaker |
| Earth leakage device trips at random | Moisture in an outdoor fitting, a faulty appliance or damaged cable | Isolate the circuits one by one and insulation test each |
| Lights flicker or dim | Loose connection, failing LED driver or an unsuitable dimmer | Check terminations, drivers and dimmer compatibility |
| Socket is warm or marked brown | Loose terminal or an overloaded outlet | Switch the circuit off and have the socket and cable inspected |
| Outdoor lights fail after irrigation or rain | Water inside fittings or junction boxes | Open, dry and reseal, or replace with fittings rated for outdoor use |

Questions about electrician services
What do electrician services include?
Electrician services for homes, offices and shops, covering fault finding, distribution boards, lighting, sockets, rewiring and urgent call outs. The work includes fault finding on tripping breakers and dead circuits; distribution board repairs, breakers and earth leakage devices; sockets, switches, dimmers and isolators.
How much do electrician services cost in Dubai?
We do not publish prices, because no two jobs are the same. The main factors: size and type of the system or surface; present condition and ease of access. Book a site visit: a supervisor from The MELLS looks at the work and you receive a written quotation with a defined scope before anything begins.
Who provides electrician services in Dubai?
The MELLS provides electrician services in Dubai. The work is carried out by people The MELLS employs directly, under a named supervisor, 08:00 to 19:00, Monday to Saturday. To arrange it, book a site visit on this page or call +971 55 444 0084.
How long do electrician services take?
Typically 1 to 3 hours for most faults and small installations, with rewiring quoted per project. The time for your property is confirmed with the quotation.
Can you add sockets or lights without damaging finished walls?
Often, yes. We look for existing conduits, ceiling voids and routes behind joinery first. Where cutting into a wall cannot be avoided, the quotation says so and describes how the surface will be made good.
Is it safe to reset a tripped breaker myself?
Once is reasonable. If it trips again, leave it off and call us, because a breaker that will not hold is reporting a real fault. Never tape or wedge a breaker in the on position.
How fast can an electrician get to Dubai?
A loss of power, a burning smell or a sparking socket is treated as urgent, which means a two hour response in Dubai from 08:00 to 19:00, Monday to Saturday.
Why does my breaker keep tripping in summer?
Usually because AC units, water heaters and kitchen appliances together draw more than the circuit was designed for, or because a breaker or connection has weakened with heat. We measure the load before recommending anything.
Does electrical work need DEWA approval?
Some work may, for example changes that affect the connected load or the main supply. We identify this at the site visit and prepare the paperwork that DEWA, the building or the community asks for.
How do I choose a company for electrician services in Dubai?
Ask four things: who employs the people who will come, whether the scope is written down before work starts, how the result is checked, and what happens if something is missed. The MELLS uses its own staff, quotes in writing after a site visit, checks every job (a measured test for every job, with photographs before and after) and puts right any failed check free of charge within 48 hours.
