AEF Electrical Ltd

I contacted AEF Electrical Ltd to get a quote for moving sockets and fitting an outside light. They were prompt in replying and came to give a quote on the day/time they promised. We had a specific date where work needed to be done, with a second visit required once we had fitted wardrobes. They were able to accommodate our requirements and turned up as planned. The work done was to an excellent standard and the young electrician was very friendly and helpful. I will definitely use them again.

I contacted AEF Electrical through the Which trusted trader facility. I was very impressed by their speed of response - within hours. They carried out the work - replacing a fluorescent light in the kitchen - at the time stated in their estimate. The job was completed quickly and with a minimum of mess. I then asked about the possibility of getting the fire alarms brought up to the new Scottish standard. Not only was I given an immediate estimate, but he was able to carry the work out immediately to the same standard as the other work. I have rarely been so impressed by a tradesman.

Having been stood up by another electrician, I came out of the house to see the AEF van parked nearby. I called the mobile number & Ben came to assess the job during his lunch. He advised that even though it was a small job involving fitting a new switch and moving a light it would necessitate upgrading the fuse-board. I received an estimate within the day, and arranged for the work to be done when I returned from a few days away. On the day of the job, Ben turned up as agreed, and got straight down to work. The job was completed cleanly and efficiently. No hesitation in recommending.

We have had two jobs recently carried out by Dave Norman's firm. AEF was amongst other electricians we called when work on the house uncovered some old mains wiring connected to new wiring which had been taped together in a way I wasn't sure was safe. We were under pressure as the wiring was under floorboards which were due to be sealed back down that day. Dave Norman responded positively and was able to arrange one of his team, Ozzie Dave, to visit within a few hours; he replaced the taped joins with a more secure and durable solution. Given the short notice, I felt the fee was fair; it bought peace of mind as well as a proper fix to the issue. The second job, a couple of weeks later, was a full EICR inspection of the property. Ozzie Dave was back. His work was professional, considerate and friendly throughout. He liaised with a joiner, also on-site, so that switch off the power supply from time to time did not stop the joiner using his power tools when required. I very much appreciated Dave's way of explaining things, the thoroughness of his work and his readiness to check and advise on things that were not strictly part of the EICR scope.

When replacing downlighter bulb in the kitchen I managed to kill all light from 6 fittings. Contacting AEF I had immediate confirmation of my request and intended contacting me after returning from holiday. He arrived bang on time arranged and solved the problem which was not as easy as I had assumed all for a reasonable sum. I was totally impressed by the service and Dave Norman himself, going out of his way to attend a 'simple' problem to my utter satisfaction and in a manner which I was beginning to believe was long gone. I can highly recommend AEF

I had problems with smoke alarms going off intermittently. I am a 68 year old lady in a house with high ceilings & integrated alarms. I couldn’t fix the problem myself. This was a relatively small job but the company treated me as a valued customer and rearranged their schedule to come and sort the job out urgently. The man who came (Ben) was courteous and isolated and sorted the problems. I would have no hesitation in recommending this company and would use them again for any future electrical work.

Contacted AEF for Landlord's Electrical Safety Test. Electrician arrived at appointed time, was helpful, communicative and efficient. A new consumer unit was required, and a low insulation resistance reading needed further investigation. A quote was received very promptly, agreed over the phone, and the work was completed without delay after the weekend, together with some additional sockets. All communication was clear and questions were answered in a straightforward manner. The work was completed neatly and efficiently, and everything was left clean and tidy afterwards. Happy with the price, although do not have much experience of prices for these jobs, and did not get other quotes as this contractor was highly recommended.

I have used this company twice and would not hesitate to recommend them. They are extremely professional, patient and polite. I will be using them again in the future and will definitely send their details to all my friends and family members.

From start to finish, a stress-free job. Prompt service, quote emailed same day, workers punctual, helpful and efficient. Had previously been messed about by time-wasters so it was very much appreciated that everything went so smoothly. Highly recommended, would definitely use again.

Great service at the drop of a hat. Would highly recommend them. Neat, tidy, friendly. Having worked in the trade years ago I was very impressed.
