Wires don’t lie — and ignoring these signs is asking for trouble:
1. ⚡ Flickering lights (and no, it’s not the ghost of dodgy DIY)
2. 🔥 A burning smell near sockets
3. 💡 Light switches that crackle or spark
4. 🔌 Sockets that feel hot to the touch
5. 🚫 Frequent trips on your consumer unit

If any of that sounds familiar — don’t wait. These aren’t ‘wait-and-see’ problems. They’re ‘get-it-sorted-now’ ones.
