Joel arrived on time, did the work - earth bonding wire to gas meter, installing light in garage, adding two double sockets in living room - with no fuss, minimum disruption and to the agreed price. He explained exactly what he was doing and tested everything thoroughly. A pleasant experience all round.

Good job done quickly

We had wiring for old wall lights that needed removing and making safe at the wall swich. Joel checked the wiring for us and discovered that the cables to the wall lights were connected to the circuit via a hidden junction box rather than behind the wall switch, which he explained to us clearly. This was before we moved in, so we didn't know how the wall lights had been fitted. As we are replacing the carpet in that room, he suggested looking under the floorboards for a junction box when the carpet is up and the floorboards can be lifted, and we agreed to get back in touch with him. He also replaced five wall switches for us. All the work was done quickly and neatly with minimum disruption to us

Joel has carried out a program of works for us, the latest of which was fitting outside lights and sockets to our balcony. Communication before, during and after carrying out the work has been excellent. He always arrives on time and most importantly for us the quality of Joel’s work is first-rate. Everything is left clean and tidy when the work is finished. We are very happy with the results of Joel’s work and would definitely recommend him.

Joel has exceeded my expectations. He gave great advice, was willing to explore how to install new unfamiliar products. He supported the outcomes that I wanted to achieve and went beyond to encourage new projects I have in the pipeline. Joel is calm and patient and inventive, he thinks through the best way to overcome problems, he is a great communicator, listens to you, talks jobs through with you, ensures the best, quality assured, value for money solutions, and really understands and gets behind what you want. Joel took on a lot of smaller jobs alongside the bigger jobs I commissioned and has improved my home and my life immensely in so doing, small effects with great impacts. Very grateful.

Brilliant whole house re-wire

Joel really did a fantastic job for us completing a full electrical re-wire of a 1960’s mid mod house in July and August. The works involved installing new wiring throughout the house, chasing in cables, installing plaster in downlights and pendants as well as new sockets throughout the house. He also installed a new fuse box and tested everything + certs. Joel is a an excellent electrician and great communicator, we discussed some complex stuff and he always gave great advice.

100% recommend Joel. He did various electrical work for us, including new socket circuit, removing old consumer unit, resolving wiring and earthing issues. He was very professional, easy to communicate with, and his work was spot on. Especially with electrical work, you want someone you can trust to give you the right advice and Joel did just that. He was reliable, turned up when he said he would, explained everything really well, responsive over text and phone call, and we are really happy with work. Couldn't have been a better experience.

I have been highly impressed in my dealings with Joel Work done: *fault finding of power sockets and remedy *Add USB sockets *advise and fit fire and smoke detector alarms *fault finding chronic problem with ceiling light fitting *Advice re new ceiling light and fit. The quote process was a pleasant experience. Joel respectfully listened, appreciated and took on board my comments. The work was carried out efficiently at the agreed schedule and cost. It was a pleasure to have Joel work in my home. Everything works so haven't needed to call on aftercare which was offered.

Joel knows his stuff and provided a really great service for a very reasonable price. Joel provided options/solutions where work was not so clear cut, both in terms of what and when. Everything was transparent in terms of work activities and costs, and communication was spot on. Highly recommend. Will be using again.
