Lighting improvements
I needed to replace a malfunctioning sensor-controlled external light and also replace a manually switched external light. The work was done quickly and to a high standard with nothing left for me to deal with once the fitting and testing was complete. Cowley is now my first choice company for electrical work.

Domestic electrical installation/rectification work
I contacted Cowley Electrical at the end of May in regard to domestic lighting installation/rectifcation work and was contacted promptly by via email saying one of their electricians could attend on 4th June. Liam came out on that day, and was quickly and accurately able to assess the. work involved. I then received a quote from Neil Cowley, detailing the work necessary and price. This was a very reasonable quotation, as 3 separate tasks were entailed. On agreeing the quote, I was promptly contacted via email to inform me that they would be with me on 10 June. Liam again attended and carried out the work in a very proessional and attentive manner. Every aspect of the job was completed entirely to my satisfaction. All relevant certification was forwarded to me on completion. My whole experience was a very positive one, and I can strongly recommend this company. Additionally, throughout the process I was kept well informed by customer support staff via email and text/phone.

Excellent, Efficient Professional Service
My experience with Cowley Electrical from start to finish was of an outstanding, professional company. Well deserving of the 5 star reviews and Which Trusted Trader designation. I found this company from Which Trusted Trader and what a good decision it was. As many have said Neil and Liam are both the epitome of professionalism. Every aspect of the work carried out was outstanding. The initial EICR uncovered several unsatisfactory conditions which were thankfully remedied over the 3 days Liam spent correcting and upgrading my electrics. What an absolute gem he was. Courteous, Very hard working and fastidiously tidy. Could not have asked for more. To put my comments in perspective I ran a service company for 30 years with the same ethos as Cowley Electrical and so I know how difficult it is to maintain such a high level of customer satisfaction. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Cowley Electrical. Thank you Neil, Liam and Which.

Electrical review and installation works
Cowley performed a site survey recommending important improvements. They quoted for and were awarded the works. They were very good at planning on the work schedule and flexible with payment terms before and after. Their engineer was punctual, polite and professional throughout 4 days on site. They added value above the scope of work too when they were able to respond to existing and new situations on site as they occurred. Most importantly they didn’t have to wait for things to go wrong or respond to quality snags or complaints because they were so competent in electrical work and had a planning/preventative risk mindset. This made the whole experience in our home safe and with hardly any disruption which was excellent. Cowley have an enterprising business approach and you can tell are customer focused, seek to set high standards and also seek to continually improve.

With flood water an inch from the front door and no electricity supply, my daughter and young grandchildren arriving in a few hours, I was delighted to see Cowley Electrics who isolated the electricity fault and re-connected our supply.

Excellent service from original communication to completion of work.
The task included a one day inspection followed by a further four days of work. Liam the electrician was prompt, informative, thorough and efficient. Each day he cleaned and tidied up putting any furniture that he had moved, back in place, before he left. Although Liam had to work in every room he was not intrusive. He was easy to talk to, polite, understanding and kind. Liam is a highly professional electrician who works to a very high standard. I would not hesitate to contact Cowley Electrical Contractors again if needed and I would certainly recommend them to others. Glenys Carrick (aged 85) near Cirencester Gloucestershire.

Neatly tucked in a corner. Really friendly, punctual and tidy. We had a text with an ETA which was bang on time. Would highly recommend

Really pleased with the Cowleys engineer. He carried out the original inspection and returned over 4 days to complete the remedial work. He was polite, friendly, unobtrusive and helpful.

Outside lighting in the garden
We have previously used Cowley Electrical to install power and lighting to our summerhouse, and were very pleased with the work done . Over a number of years we have used solar lighting in the garden to highlight a number of features e.g arches and pergola, but in the main have been disappointed with the result. We decided this year to run more underground cables to the features we needed illuminating, and on the advice of Neil Cowley install low voltage LED lights. The lights were installed by Liam, who was very polite and kept us informed throughout the day as to how the job was progressing. In order to finish the work in one day Liam worked on until about 19.00, and did a very professional job, being extremely neat and tidy. We are very pleased with the end result.

Excellent work done on time and on price
Around Easter 2021 our house outside lights packed up and as soon as Lockdown permitted we decided to have them updated. We asked local electrical contractor Cowley, who advertise locally, to visit and give a quote. Proprietor Neil Cowley visited a few days later and made a thorough inspection of the site and work involved. This comprised: making safe and removing existing system and replacing with completely new system of lights at various points around the outside of the house - some controlled by PIR, others by wireless switching. Also replacing sealed lights in bathroom ceiling. Estimate received on-line that day was very competitive and promised a quick start and finish. Queries were promptly responded to and estimate agreed in a few days. A technician (Liam McGlen) arrived in a few days and started work immediately, after checking exactly what was required at every stage. Work completed in two days. We were very impressed with the efficiency of Mr Cowley’s organisation and also of Mr McGlen, who was invariably polite and considerate, and made sure at every stage that he was doing what we wanted him to. On 27 May, invoice arrived along with electrical certification. It has been a pleasure working with Cowley Electrical and we will not hesitate to ask them for help should we need electrical work in future.

He was most thorough and efficient. Having found the problem, he repaired the errant light allowing the stables to be lit again. I have the utmost confidence that he is a very proficient tradesman.
