About

Switch Green Electrical is a Forest Hill based domestic electrical company run by Joel Buckwell. Switch Green Electrical specialises in small electrical tasks, consumer unit replacements to full house rewires. Joel first became an electrician in 2003 and has been a sole trader since 2011. He runs his business on honesty and reliability. All work undertaken is carried out to the latest BS7671 standards.

'All Hands and Hearts' are a non profit volunteer based organisation that helps rebuild and improve areas in the aftermath of a natural disaster anywhere in the world. Joel has first hand experience working for them as a volunteer in Nepal, Peru and offers them electrical advice & guidance to keep their projects and volunteers safe.

Joel installed a new socket for me in under an hour. Fixed a problem with the fuse board as a bonus. Very professional and neat job. Couldn't fault him. Excellent.

First time I used Switch Green Electrical and extremely glad I did. Joel replaced 16 recessed downlights for LED's, replaced an extractor fan and fit a spur to enable the relocation of a tumble dryer. His work and finish is excellent. Everything was within the agreed budget and the work was completed well within schedule. During the initial consultation Joel was very helpful in advising us on the best way to run an additional spur to ensure that the work was not only safe but, aesthetically pleasing, even though it potentially meant extra work for him to avoid using trunking and with minimal disruption. We found Joel to be very polite, friendly and trustworthy. We will definitely use his service again for our electrics.

Spectacular work by Joel

Joel did a spectacular job doing the electrics for my kitchen renovation, putting in spotlights, adding new plug sockets throughout the flat, and replacing my switchboard. Joel’s work was of a very high standard and also a reasonable price! He offered lots of advice and explained to me what was necessary at all stages. Joel was very flexible and happy to work around my renovation schedule, and worked well with my other tradespeople. He was polite, professional, honest, trustworthy, super friendly, and genuinely a lovely guy. He also recommended my kitchen fitter who turned out to be superb! I can’t recommend Joel enough and definitely won’t be using anyone else in the future. I’ve already recommend him to my friends who are hoping to move to the area.

Joel was great. Showed up within a couple of days to give me the quote, really spent the time understanding the work I wanted done, and helped me understand that one particular job would have been just way too complicated to try and pull off. I had to chase to get the quotation (not the end of the world), but we set a date and Joel stuck to it, and arrived bang on time. Work was completed quickly, he was very considerate of me working from home when he needed to turn off sockets etc. Great guy all round. Be warned though, he doesn't drink tea. It's a bit weird, but just go with it.

Joel changed the fuse box, rewired all existing sockets, added new sockets, fitted dimmer switches, fitted new lights across the flat (recessed and hanging), fitted under cupboard LEDs and new smoke alarms. Everything he has done is great and as I asked (and more as we went on). He worked really well alongside the other contractors in the flat and was always super friendly. I couldn't recommend him enough and will not be using anyone else for any future work.

Joel has helped me with a couple of small jobs – lights that needed fixing/changing – and both times has been friendly, quick and charged a very reasonable price. Really couldn't ask for more in a local electrician.

We found Joel through Which? Trusted Traders and he helped us with a number of jobs for our property, this included fitting lights, new switches and installing a new oven. Joel was great to work with, really helpful and provided some great suggestions that we hadn't thought of ourselves. He completed the work to an excellent standard and left everything as he found it and super tidy. We would recommend Joel without any hesitation!
