DWS Electrical Services

Darren fitted an external light with motion sensor and put in an additional socket in my bedroom. He has previously fitted two extractor fans in my house and two security lights on the outside of my property. From start to finish Darren's approach is first class. Darren is thoroughly professional and helpful when discussing what you want to achieve, suggesting alternatives and amendments which improve the overall outcome from the work being undertaken. He is punctual, works quickly and thoroughly, and all work is completed to budget. I am not surprised he is a designated Which Trusted Trader as his whole approach is outstanding. I would have no hesitation is using Darren's services again.

The undercabinet lights in my kitchen had gone off and I wanted an extra socket in my garage. I contacted DWS as I felt reassured that he was a Which Trusted Trader and had excellent reviews. Darren visited to asses the job and sent me a written quotation, which I thought was very reasonable and we agreed a date for the work. He arrived as agreed, had a very pleasant manner and was very patient, explaining the circuitry to me. His work was very neat, he wore overshoes and tidied up afterwards. I received a certificate for the work a few days later. I am very happy with the work Darren did and would not hesitate to contact him for electrical work in the future.

A job well done, Darren is the go to Electrical Engineer in my area , I just can't fault his work and attitude. Well done and thanks

Replaced two smoke alarms. Meticulous work, easy to contact and straightforward about payment . Also good value.

I wanted some external floodlights under the roofline across the front of my property and, after much research, was considering undertaking the work myself (although I must stress I am not an electrician). I priced the parts and planned the installation but wanted a quote from a qualified electrician. That's when I found the Which ? Trusted Trader service and I'm very pleased that I did. Darren (DWS is his initials) came round and discussed the work before submitting a detailed quotation. Having a good idea of the parts cost already, I considered his labour charges very reasonable - all thoughts of doing the work myself soon disappeared. We agreed that he would use my ladders and I would support him with these from a safety aspect. The job was planned for January but, due to the weather, had to be postponed. Nevertheless he arrived on the agreed date and on time. We offered him an alternative job replacing 4 interior lights (we were let down by another electrician before Christmas). He completed the work without fuss and for a very reasonable charge. The external floodlights were re-scheduled for February (due to both mine and Darren's commitments). Again he arrived on time and fully prepared. This time the work was completed and I'm very pleased with the result. Darren is courteous, professional, very tidy in his work, with attention to detail. He supplied the necessary paperwork to support the job. I would not hesitate to use him again or recommend him to family or friends.

We have had a Darren do several jobs for us in a relatively short space of time. Initially just electrical work but subsequently other jobs that he was willing to take on. Everything he does is of the highest standard, he does not compromise quality for speed/convenience and is always happy to make that extra effort to get something right. He is very friendly and helpful always looking to find a solution for any problem or design decision you have. He is reliable and conscientious and works in a organised and tidy way that minimises disruption but also making sure to clean up afterwards. In short we highly recommend Darren and we have an ongoing list of things we will be asking him to do for us.

We needed the Consumer Unit moving, which required a replacement unit to bring up to current specification. Darren responded quickly to our request and promptly provided a very reasonable estimate and timescale for the job, turned up at the specified time and carried out the job to the expected timescale. He worked in a very professional manner, paying a great deal of attention to the detail of the job and working in a very efficient and extremely tidy manner, I don't think I have seen any other electrician do such neat work - no shortcuts or mess left despite having to cut a large hole in plasterboard! Very friendly and informative about what needed doing, how he was going to do it and the reasons things had to be done. Highly impressed, no hesitation in recommending Darren for any electrical work, very good value.

We are very pleased with Darren's work. A prompt response to our initial enquiry, reasonably priced, worked hard even though the weather was far from ideal!, friendly, on time and to budget. Good explanation of what was needed. Excellent, thank you.

Darren installed new consumer unit, add socket to radial in kitchen, earth bonded water and gas pipes, replaced light pendants, light switches, sockets, changed some single to double sockets, led light for kitchen, moved landing light from a dangerous position overhanging stairs (when changing light bulb) to a far more accessible position. Darren cleaned up as he went along, there was no mess. He finished all work so that it looked neat and tidy. The work was done to the agreed date, time and budget. Darren was knowledgeable and suggested different options when discussing the work to be done. Communication was good and timely. Certificates for the electrical work and building regulations arrived shortly after the work was completed. Darren was always good humoured, helpful, friendly and interesting. He was also Alzheimer friendly. A pleasure to have around. We discussed further work - replacement of quiet extractor fan for bathroom, dimmable light and alarms. Would highly recommend. 5 stars.

DWS connected up my waterfall pump and lights in my back garden. Darren was the consummate professional, a genuine good guy and his pricing for the work was very fair. I would not want to engage another electrician other than Darren and I have no hesitation in recommending DWS to anyone looking for great service, excellent professionalism, honest and fair pricing.
