“SureFix Solutions is a professional, friendly and extremely helpful company that I would gladly recommend for any electrical work.”
I contacted them and, within an hour, they were already assisting me on the very same day. Their service was prompt, professional and efficient from start to finish.
What impressed me most was their honesty and fairness. I had contacted four other companies for quotations, and SureFix Solutions quoted me substantially less than all of them while still providing excellent service.
It is refreshing to deal with honest, decent people who genuinely care about their customers.

DB Board & Tripping Frequently Asked Questions
❓ What should I do right now if my DB board is buzzing or smells like burning?
Turn off your main power switch immediately if it is safe to do so. A buzzing or burning smell indicates severe electrical arcing or a melting terminal block which is an immediate fire hazard. Call our emergency hotline at 062 328 0328 right away.
❓ Why does my power trip immediately when loadshedding ends?
When grid power restores, hundreds of local appliances and geysers pull power simultaneously, causing severe inrush current and voltage surges. This can trip sensitive earth leakage switches or burn older neutral connections. We install surge arrestors to prevent this recurring issue.
❓ Do you charge extra for call-outs after hours?
No. SureFix offers a strict R0 call-out policy across Johannesburg Northern Suburbs. We diagnose the issue and provide an upfront, fixed quote before any work starts.
