Storm Éowyn reminded us all how vulnerable our power infrastructure can be. With over a million homes affected this year, the UK grid is still playing catch-up when it comes to resilience.

How you can prepare:

  • Keep emergency lights or torches in key rooms

  • Invest in surge protection for sensitive equipment

  • Consider a professional backup power solution for your business

At Webster Electrical, we provide 24/7 emergency call-out services—whether you’re in a home, office, warehouse, or farm.

📍 Did you know? Most insurance policies don’t cover damage caused by electrical surges unless you’ve taken reasonable precautions.
