Re: need an electrician

I just did it by putting "accrington" into the "Town or County:" field and it came back with plenty.

Despite not being an electrician I do all my own so never need to call on one, but if your going to get any work done
it needs to be by one from a competent person scheme & part P qualified (in the club).

Although changing a bulb really wont be worthwhile paying the call out charges.
The fitting itself may need replacing as they are generally very cheap & die quickly.

Whatever, if you try too change the bulb yourself, make sure you turn the power off to it fully and if its the long thin
bulb do not touch the glass with your bare hands, use gloves. (skin oils cause heat buildup & the bulb goes).

Cheap bulbs can be obtained from many places & is usually the first thing to try before finding someone to go further.
