About

Hi, My name is Tony Byrne, I have been carrying out electrical work for over 30 years. I am a sole trader, so it would be just me carrying out any work. I am registered with the NICEIC and carry all the relevant insurances.
In 2013 i collected the Which?Local trader East award at an awards ceremony in London, which i nearly didn't go to, but luckily my daughter persuaded me.
I wish i could mention hobbies, but really do not get time for any, apart from being a spurs supporter, but please don't hold that against me.

I carry out all Electrical work including small jobs locally, like changing a light fitting, so don't be worried to ask for a small job to be done. Also repairs to light fittings.

Intruder alarms ; CCTV
Hot Tub servicing and repairs,
Garden lighting and outdoor sockets
Extra sockets and lights, new consumer units (fuseboards)

Very happy with the work done. Neat and tidy. Communication was clear about the project, timings, costs etc. Tony had been to our house once previously to undertake several smaller pieces of work. Very happy also with that, which is why I asked him to come back to undertake this larger project. Questions are answered and explanations provided, whether by email (promptly) or whilst on site.

Tony carried out work for us over two days to convert single sockets to double sockets, fit new wall and ceiling lights as well as changing switch and socket covers. He arrived promptly on both days, worked hard and to a very high standard. Where walls had to be chased out to fit new lights, switches and sockets etc, Tony did an excellent job making good so that they have been left in good order ready to be decorated and the rooms being worked in were tidied and left spotless each day. In advance of the visit Tony made contact with the supplier of the lights to ensure that he fully understood how they worked as they were non standard and the on-line description for fitting and operating was not clear and he wanted to ensure that they suited our requirements. We really appreciate the attention to detail this demonstrates and that Tony always wants to do the best for his customers. He was polite, friendly and helpful throughout and ensured that we were consulted regarding positioning of lights etc and ensured that we were happy with everything. Tony was recommended to us by a friend and we have been very happy to engage him on several occasions and have always been pleased with his work. Furthermore his prices are very competitive. We would not hesitate to recommend him to others.

We had Tony fit an inline extractor fan and shaver socket in our bathroon. Tonys communication was excellent from the initial quote which was clear, and the invoice for the work. He is polite and his work is really good. would not hesitate to recommend him to others.

Tony was unable to come at the agreed date for personal reasons. However, he came the following week (the job would have been running into the following week anyway) and rather than let it run over, he brought a colleague so the work was completed by the agreed end date. All the work was completed well and when, on investigation, something didn't need doing, we had a reduction in the agreed price. A couple of things which were replaced for new ones, were left with us with the advice that we could sell the old one. Very honest. Both Tony and Dave were very pleasant and left everything clean and tidy. Would certainly use again.

New sockets and ceiling light in bedroom

Tony updated the electrical sockets in our bedroom, introducing two new double sockets as well as replacing a very old ceiling light. We are absolutely delighted with the new LED remote control adjustable ceiling lamp which he recommended and installed. He mended a spotlight in our living room and replaced an electric shower pull cord in the bathroom. in the past we have had several issues with ageing ceiling spotlights which he has resolved and given advice on. He is always reliable and gives a clear idea of the estimated cost of any work, big or small, leaving everything clean and tidy. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Tony, he is an absolute star, and I am so glad we found him initially through Which? Trusted Traders!

Electrical sockets and light switches

Tony raised two (new) MK electrical sockets in our kitchen by 600mm and blanked off the redundant sockets - both new sockets included USB outlets. As a bonus Tony was able to to achieve installation of the sockets without cutting-out any additional channels in the plasterboard. In addition, Tony replaced eleven light switches with new MK switches that included integral neon lights to assist finding their locations during darkness (for safety). The work was completed on time and on budget. Tony is very accommodating and sociable, and came across as a very competent contractor, which I highly recommend. Footnote: Tony enjoys a cup of Yorkshire Tea!

I have used Tony before, who has always given me 5-star service, both for quality and value. On this occasion, I asked for help and he was able to provide a cost-free solution which saved me £1,000. I had defrosted my fridge/ freezer, causing water to leak onto the plug, which perpetually tripped the bank electrical sockets. Unfortunately, my fridge/freezer is contained within a furniture unit, making the plug inaccessible. By talking to Tony over the phone, he very patiently narrowed down the problem and suggested that I simply wait for the plug to dry out, thus avoiding the need to replace a particular-sized unit with the complication of getting it fitted. Very grateful.

Can highly recommend Tony Byrne. Tony gave me advice over the phone as to which light fittings would be suitable for the job. He gave me a price over the phone and that was what he charged. Tony arrived on time, did an extremely thorough and tidy job. A most satisfactory outcome and will definitely use his services again should the need arise.
