Connect Electric (Bury) Ltd

My previous solar developed a fault. Contacted a number of companies. Chris came on Sunday and sent a quote via email, which was the most competitive. He came and fitted, which only took him about ten minutes. Supplied all paperwork, and allowed me to pay with my credit card.

I am purchasing an electric car and wanted to have a home charger fitted. The car salespeople recommended Chris and I called him to arrange a meeting to discuss my requirements. He came to see me within a couple of days, supplied an estimate and turned up to do the work exactly at the agreed time. The charger was fitted with the minimum of fuss and I was delighted with the outcome. I would use Chris for any future work and highly recommend his services to anyone.

We are about to take delivery of a EV, and needed a EV charger installing. We found Connect on Google and contacted him. He came round with days to give a quote, fully explained the process and what was needed. Within two weeks of the first call it had been installed, Chris communicated throughout and double check things. Great service, Thanks Chris.

Very quick installation and efficient communication throughout. They also made it very hassle free as most of the paperwork was done by them.

We noticed that our old inverter was not performing. Connect Electric within minutes diagnosed/quoted and a week later rapidly fit a new inverter. Top class service. Many thanks.

Chris recently renewed an 'Inverter' for my system which had stopped working. He was easy to contact, came and investigated the problem quickly. Quoted the repair and ordered and fitted the new part very promptly.

On first contact, Chris was very helpful over the telephone when our solar panel meter tripped out. A simple reset solved the problem initially but the same problem happened a couple of days later and it became apparent there was an inverter problem. Chris arrived the next morning and reviewed the system. The inverter had failed completely. He was pleasant and helpful in explaining the problem and the solution and what was involved and his quote for a new inverter arrived that same evening. He ordered the new inverter and a couple of days later on receipt came along to fit it. Chris provided a good value, prompt and efficient service. What was perceived to possibly be a huge problem was dealt with in a competent, capable manner. The service was very satisfactory.

Chris Barker at Connect Electric has made the process of having a charge point for our new EV Car a very easy process, he organised the paperwork form start to finish to gain the government grant to reduce the cost of the install, gave me three options of intelegent charge boxes and recomended one of then based on his experience. he did a pre inspection to our property to so he could give me an accurate quotation for the install. the two installers came well presented and wearing face masks to our property (Covid 19) they were very polite and asked me exactly where I would like the charge point on our wall. they did a clean installation and removed all the materials from the area, they then showed me how us use the charger and get the most out of it via the app, they made sure I was happy and 2 cups of coffee later job done and paid for. I will be using these guys again for our next house as well as for other electrical work we will probably need, I couldn't recommend Chris Barker and Connect Electric highly enough.

Connect Electric were recommended to us by a friend for our full house rewire and I am glad we took the recommendation. The pricing was fair, the communications were good and when work was booked in to start, it actually did. Chris has done a brilliant job of the rip out and replace, including fixing the less than ideal electrical feed that was done in the fairly newly built conservatory, running new feeds in for the range cooker, mains powered fire alarms, external lighting and so on. Chris was flexible with us on the rewire, we were having a kitchen installed but there was a delay in the kitchen delivery due to covid-19 we had to put that part of the job on hold until it was delivered, when the kitchen was finally in he came back and finished the install with no complaints. No request was too much trouble, from start to finish Chris was a complete professional and kept the considerable mess generated to a minimum, anyone whose had to have their house rewired will know this is a challenge!

Great quality and thorough job. They were flexible and helpful getting our rewire completed and completing certificates.

Chris gave me the best price and was a day to order the inverter and fitted the same day the unit arrived. System back up and running 5 star.

Very fast and efficient service. Price is reasonable. Good communication. Highly recommended. One happy customer.

After contacting Chris about a problem with our solar panel readings he came to house checked everything over and found the fault with in half an hour problem sorted up and running. Very professional from time of contact to end of job. Thanks Chris

Chris was personable and knew his stuff. Professional, knowledgeable and prompt. Completed work from inspection of system to installation in the minimum timeframe. Work completed at reasonable cost. Will use again for any future electrical work and will recommend to friends.

My Solar panels stopped producing electricity.Prompt service at reasonable cost, helpful and communicative.Recommended.

I needed my solar panel system to be removed and stored, to enable roofing replacement, then replaced over the new roof covering. My chosen roofing contractor could not do or arrange this. I located Chris via Which? Trusted Traders and he impressed from the outset. He returned my call promptly. He made sure he understood what I needed. He gave me substantial reassurance with his obvious knowledge and earlier experience of the work involved. He gave clear directions about site requirements necessary for the job.He gave me honest statements about availability and a good value quote. Both have been fully honoured. He undertook to liaise with the roofing contractor and managed this to mutual satisfaction at all key stages. Most importantly, his work has been excellent. He was punctual, presented well did his job promptly and properly and kept me informed of the relevant stages. I am pretty sure he will now be my first call/go-to electrician. Highest recommendation.

Chris is my number one go to electrician. He knows his stuff, is punctual and provides a high quality of workmanship. He is also very reasonably priced. I would not hesitate to recommend.

Excellent service. I contacted Connect Electric because my mother who lives in Bury needed the bathroom light replaced urgently. The work was done the same afternoon. Efficient and good value.

We asked Connect Electric, in the person of Chris Barker, to fix solar panels to our property in Leigh, having experienced excellent service at a similar property in Little Hulton last year. From start to finish on both jobs Chris was completely professional and cheerful and, in the case of the Leigh property, helped us find a roofer to re-roof. I can thoroughly recommend him as a worker who does what he says, arrives on time, and does his very best to make everything as easy as possible for the customer.

Chris and his team are fantastic…very trustworthy and reliable.Know exactly what they are doing and reasonable on price.Stick to what they agree.When a tradesman has the knowledge and experience to work quicker then he can afford to charge less which is where Chris shines.If you are looking for a reliable professional electrician then look no further. Worth waiting for.

We use Connect whenever we have electric jobs to be done - always good advice, fast and comprehensive. Would definitely recommend them for any electric job big or small. Our latest was for a kitchen rewire but they have also done smaller jobs - always the same great service.

Chris installed an outdoor light, put in two new plug sockets and fixed my aerial as well as moving my tv onto a different wall. When you are looking for traders to do work they can take ages to get back to you if at all. Chris got back to me very quickly and carried out the work professionally and efficiently. I was really pleased with the quality of finish. I can only have good words to say about connect electric.

From first contact to completion of the job I was impressed by the professionalism and pleasant, polite approach which I encountered. Information was clear and the job was completed in record time. A reasonable charge for a fast, neat piece of work. Highly recommended.

Chris and his team fully rewired our new home. They also fitted outside lights and an alarm system. They were professional in their work and completed the jobs in the agreed timescale. The price quoted for the work did not change. Fully recommended.

Chris and his team were a pleasure to deal with and fitted out solar panels quickly and were very clean and tidy. The fittings are all secure and professionally fitted. I am impressed that Chris has a real and committed interest to alternative clean energy sources. He has integrity in this developing area. He is a decent bloke.

Chris was a pleasure to deal with. The detailed quote was competitive and value for money. Communication was excellent, providing all relevant information and keeping us informed as he went along. They worked extremely hard in very challenging weather conditions and kept to their price. We just need some sunshine now!!

I have used Chris and his team a number of times, his work is always of the highest quality, often taking the time to make every effort to ensure the job is not just done well, but above expectations. I would highly recommend them

I couldn't be more happy with the guys from Connect Electric. They fitted my new house alarm with no mess, no fuss and walked me the installation process so it was clear from the start. They also fitted my ceiling lights throughout the house and cleared each room after they were finished. Great service with a great price!
