Lloyd Hallowell Electrics

Lloyd Hallowell's electrician was on time, engaging and personable and did a really great job modifying and fitting our light fittings - would definitely recommend!

I contacted Lloyd for adding several double sockets and changing lights. This was done quickly and efficiently, and completed within a few hours. He also suggested some further work to improve that would be useful to have done in the near future. I will have no hesitation going back to Lloyd for this work.

This was my second time working with Lloyd. He sent his best technician Nathan to bring his knowledge to bear. The job was completed in good time and to a good standard. The process was friendly and efficient. Recommended.

What an amazingly nice and friendly guy Lloyd is who soooo knew his stuff. Not only is he a brilliant electrician who is totally knowledgeable, he also is creative in making sure the very best outcome is achieved. I was so impressed with his first class workmanship and his passion for detail. The resulting work was second to none. I STRONGLY recommend Lloyd and thank him for doing such a great job.

I booked Lloyd to replace a dodgy old consumer unit (fuse box) and repair a faulty circuit he had noticed when I had booked him to do a general inspection a couple of months earlier. His online booking process is very efficient. Lloyd arrived on time, completed the work to a high standard and left the area spotless. He talked me through everything he would do clearly and was very polite and friendly. I thought he had a very positive attitude, even when an unforeseen problem was discovered due to the wiring age that he came up with a successful plan B for. I'd definitely book Lloyd again and I would recommend.

Electrician Nathan sorted out a few small jobs regarding light switches and plug sockets. He was quick and thorough and offered sound advice on some lighting issues. He was fast and efficient and the final bill came in at less than quoted. I’m happy to recommend this company.

I got an EICR report before buying my property. Lloyd's team was thorough and professional and the customer service in answering questions and queries afterwards was fantastic. Super easy and friendly service - very comforting for someone who knows nothing about electrics/DIY!

I had some downlighters replaced throughout my flat. Lloyd was really friendly and helpful and spent a lot of time giving me options and advice ahead of me making the booking. He kept in touch in the run up and was friendly during the visit. He was professional and tidy and I was really pleased with the work.

Lloyd’s communication was prompt, to the point and makes good use of digital tools i.e. automatic diary completion, reminders, indication where he is on his way to the job, clear invoice etc. He worked hard, did the job, adapted where necessary and responded fast to suggestions. We weren’t quite sure if the lights were the correct ones so he went away and came back with different lights to compare. All this to ensure I got what was promised. The job was done well, and it was a pleasure to have Lloyd around. I can certainly recommend him and was pleased to see that one of my neighbours had already nabbed him for a job minutes after he’d parked his car near my house.

Lloyd had the unenviable task of clearing up a cowboy electrician's mess. He did so thoroughly and without any teeth-sucking or complaint. He is efficient, tidy and meticulous and he did the job. I had been let down by 2 electicians prior to Lloyd, it was a relief to find someone with integrity. I shall use him again.

Lloyd supplied and installed a bathroom extractor fan, ensuring it was set up correctly, repaired a light fitting and added gas pipe bonding. Very happy with the speed and quality of service and communication over the job.

I found Lloyd on Checkatrade and after having a few different electricians come out, I decided to go with him straight away. He knows a huge amount about electrics and is very meticulous in everything he does. He’s super tidy, ordered, and skilled with all things electrics. He has excellent communication skills and always updates you when he is on his way to your job. Lloyd is a pleasure to have around he’s very friendly, kind, and interesting (with great taste in music!). Look forward to having him come back again whenever more work is needed! Super happy with all his work, can't recommend him highly enough.

Lloyd was hired to install new light fittings throughout the whole of our home, as well as a new bathroom extractor fan and a radiator timer. From initial engagement via an easy to use booking system through to completion, Lloyd was at all times very professional and knowledgeable. We were notified in advance and on the day, time of arrival, and could track route to ensure we were at home when he arrived. All fittings were installed to an exacting standard even when having to replace poorly installed bathroom lights and an extractor fan previously fitted by a rogue builder. No job was too big or small. Lloyd was meticulous in tidying up, despite there being little mess and left our home clean. He also very much respected our request to wear a face mask at all times. I would have absolutely no hesitation in using Lloyd again and would definitely recommend him to friends.

We had 5 light fittings that needed replacing, all slightly different. The work was completed properly and tidily, and within the time frame offered. They were honest about what could be done and how, and both electriciatians were courteous and friendly. The lights look great! Would not hesitate to use this company again.

I used Lloyd and his electricians to re-do an EICR certificate I had previously obtained from another company who then stopped replying to my queries and emails when I challenged it. Lloyd was exceptionally helpful and took time to talk me through everything on the phone and discuss options in detail before I had even committed to using his services. Then throughout the work he was professional and friendly, always available to talk things through if I had questions.

The circuit breaker for my cooker tripped, causing a smell of burning plastic from near the oven. After resetting the circuit breaker, the hob and oven came on again and I couldn't find a fault with either of the appliances. Given the smell, however, I was reluctant to keep using them as I worried that there could be a problem with the wiring to the hob/oven or elsewhere in my flat. One of Lloyd's team came the next day and thoroughly investigated (this included checking out the circuit breaker, pulling out the oven switch, and pulling out and reinstalling both the oven and hob). He didn't find any problem and reassured me that it was OK to continue using the appliances. Best of all, Lloyd explained that there is no call out fee and that they would only charge if work was required to repair a fault, which didn't turn out to be the case. I'm so glad I was able to get the issue resolved without paying for an expensive electrician visit and very grateful to them for the reassurance and for this policy.

I’ve used Lloyd three or four times now to fix faults that other bad electricians have either created or failed to find. He’s 100% considerate. Professional. Courteous and reliable and his quality of work is amazing. Good booking system and great communicator. Cannot recommend him enough.

Re Oven installation From a speedy response to my original enquiry, through a very efficient booking system, to the wonderfully helpful visiting electrician I was totally impressed by the service provided by Lloyd Hallowell. The oven installation wasn’t entirely straightforward thanks to the existing wiring, but Alfred quickly resolved the problem and we now have a smart new cooker. All this at 8pm on a Friday evening! Great communication and excellent service at a very good price. I’d certainly use this company again and would happily recommend it to others.

Lloyd was great. The work involved replacing five kitchen/bathroom lights and fitting a new external light. The estimate and booking process was all done by email and online and was very transparent. Lloyd arrived within the time period he gave and the tracker he sent was helpful to get an exact time. The estimate was for fixed amounts rather than on a time-spent basis but he did not rush the work and was very tidy. He was very personable without that stopping him getting on with the job. The invoice was exactly per the estimate.

Lloyd fitted three ceiling lights for me, including the tricky one in the bathroom with the hidden fuse! He did a great job in double-quick time for two-thirds of his original quoted price. He has all the tools and spares you can imagine and then some. He cleared up after himself. He's clearly dedicated to providing a top service. He’s also a friendly and reassuring presence to have in the house. A top experience all around. I highly recommend him.

Lloyd is a fantastic worker who I would happily recommend! We needed some work done on our bathroom and other electrical fittings. The process of getting the information to Lloyd was really simple and the booking system was very easy and quick. He is very friendly, informative, thorough and was very determined to solve one of the fittings that was causing a bit of a headache. I really appreciate the time and effort he put in and I felt totally reassured. Definitely coming back to Lloyd for future electrical work! Thanks Lloyd!

We had some light fittings and a switch fixed. Lloyd turned up on time, communication was easy, the work was done well, he was respectful of the house, left no mess, and he charged less than he had quoted. Perfect experience- strongly recommended.

Lloyd was an excellent electrician to deal with, from getting a quote through to completing the upgrade on our daughter's new flat. He was flexible and helpful at every point. We'd highly recommend him.

We had a simple job to change the pendant light fitting in our hallway. Lloyd did a great job and was in and out in an hour! He's a really friendly guy and cleaned up after himself. I also have to mention he has by far the best/easiest booking system so you always know his exact availability. Will definitely be using him for all our future electrical jobs, thanks Lloyd!

Lloyd sorted out our electricity failure in the kitchen - so boiler, fridge, all the most important stuff. He came same day, on time, was friendly, positive and didn't leave until he had fixed it, even though it took nearly 5 hours. He's a star and I heartily recommend him.

We found Lloyd through online recommendations and can't recommend him enough. Top quality work by a truly top quality chap. He was careful to know exactly what needed doing ahead of time so showed up with all necessary items and a well prepared plan for doing things right. He repaired faulty wiring and casings along our exterior walkway lights and also discovered and repaired some dangerously dodgy wiring in our interior hallway lights. In both cases he added extra measures to protect our systems from future damage or faults. His very reasonable costs were agreed before we booked the appointment and we were billed exactly what was pre-approved. Professional, tidy, trustworthy and a completely impressive van as well. Only mention that last bit as it's proof that he has carefully considered every element of his business and its top quality at every turn.

The video service to get a quote was very effective. Lloyds communication was clear and very useful. The work was done safely and on time and on budget.

My storage heater had broken and I had tried all home remedies, as I am on a limited budget. Lloyd made himself available super quickly when he found out I had no heating in the depths of winter. He was friendly and approachable. Explained everything and tried to find a cost effective solution rather than jumping to full heating replacement, as 3 others had done. He actually spent time diagnosing the problem and it was a simple plug socket replacement, saving hundreds of pounds. I cannot recommend this man highly enough.

Great work on our EIRC and additional work not charged. From booking through to invoicing everything was clearly explained. Lloyd kindly fitted in our job at short notice. Competitive price. Lloyd fully aware of COVID requirements... tidy and clean. Have already recommended him to friends.

I decided to use Lloyd after all his positive reviews on Which Trusted Trader. His booking system is a joy to use and allows you to select a time that suits and if something comes up it is easy to change. Lloyd uses real time mapping to show you where he is on the day so that you know what time he is going to arrive. Lloyd is very friendly and tidy. The job was done quickly and a full estimate of works was produced with Lloyd specifying what was mandatory and what was optional and a full breakdown of the costs. Lloyd missed one small part of the survey but quickly and at no cost put it right. I would thoroughly recommend Lloyd

We hired Lloyd after seeing his van on our street and reading the many five star reviews online. He came to have a look at our kitchen and then sent us a very detailed quote in the space of a couple of days (we needed to replace our range cooker with a new oven and a new induction hob). Booking a slot via his online form was very easy and extremely satisfying because it meant receiving notifications and alerts. On the day he showed up on time (we were even able to track his live location via WhatsApp) and wearing appropriate PPE. He worked for roughly three hours and was extremely tidy and efficient. After installing the appliances he tested them with us. Could be happier and we will definitely use him again.

I found Lloyd through Which Trusted Traders and was very happy I did. I had and under-the-counter kitchen light that needed replacing and a bedroom dimmer switch that needed replacing; minor work but annoying! Contacting Lloyd, showing him what was wrong via WhatsApp and setting up an appointment online was all really easy and communication was great. He arrived on time and was great to deal with. It turned out that it was harder to replace my kitchen lights that he had thought it would be because of work that had been done badly before... but he found a solution. Dimmer switch replacement very straightforward. A lovely guy too, would absolutely recommend him. Also, when he could not replace my lights as planned, he did not charge me for the lights he'd brought with him.

The work was to bring a rental flat up to EICR standard, which involved remedial work and a new Distribution Board. It was done to an agreed schedule and price on the agreed date. Mr Hallowell made things very clear. He liaised well with the Tenant, who was very impressed and reported that all had been left clean and tidy.

Lloyd is NICEIC registered and has demonstrated his expertise on multiple occasions. He's helped me with a few jobs and is my go-to person when I need an expert. He's happy to take his time to explain his work and check things over to ensure the customer is satisfied and the installation is up to scratch. Easy to get in touch with and handy online booking forms. He's very popular, so need to book in advance!

Great service from Lloyd. Promptly quoted and work completed on the agreed day. He's very happy to help and I highly recommend him.

Lloyd responded quickly to our request for a quote and although his schedule was busy but he was worth the wait. He changed several lights and switches for us, and gave us professional advice on the lights we needed to buy. He arrived on time, completed the work quickly, to a high standard and adhered to COVID19 safe procedures. We would recommend him highly.

Lloyd fitted new LED lights for us, throughout our house, back in June 2019. He fitted the lights quickly and efficiently. On two separate subsequent occaisions, when there appeared to be a problem with a switch, I contacted him and he came round within a couple of days, identified the problem (unrelated to the original fitting), fixed it. There was no charge! Lloyd is completely dependable, knows what he is doing, absolutely happy to recommend him.

I moved into my flat a couple of years ago and the need for a new consumer unit had been flagged, so I had Lloyd visit first to carry out a safety check and then again to replace the unit. The online booking system was a breeze and saved the email / WhatsApp ping-pong you often get when trying to book a tradesperson, although Lloyd was also happy to discuss the work over email. The communication all the way through was outstanding whether it was the live WhatsApp location to show him on his way, thorough discussion about the EICR results and choice of new unit, or how to use the new installation. I also know that if I hadn't been so interested in discussing in detail, Lloyd was very clear what his recommendation was and would have just got on with it. As for the work itself Lloyd approached it as if he was entering it for the Oscars of CU-installation - real pride taken in it, absolutely spotless (both outside and what I saw of inside) and probably left my flat cleaner than it was when he arrived (cleanliness really not to be taken for granted with some people now). If I have need for an electrician in future I will not hesitate in calling Lloyd again. The only downside is he is getting popular and for non-emergency work you might have to look a few weeks ahead to find a slot.

We came back from holidays to find all of our electricity was off in the kitchen, and bedrooms. Fridge, freezer, cooker, lights etc all not working. Lloyd was quick with all his communications and came round and worked expertly and diligently through the problem, explaining clearly what he was doing and why. We had an outside light that had short circuited with the wires having burned through. Thankfully, Lloyd was able to make us safe again and get everything work. Lloyd was a joy to work with and we have no hesitation in recommending him.

We found Lloyd through Trusted Traders. He did a full safety inspection on a flat we let out in Wapping. He was very thorough, talked us through everything he was doing, and gave us some useful pointers on how we could improve our electrical safety even further. We'd definitely use him again, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend his services.

Absolutely brilliant experience with Lloyd. From start to finish very professional, superbly efficient and friendly. The downstairs lights were causing repeated tripping on the RCD. He did a thorough investigation eliminating the possible problems one by one until he found the source of the fault. This involved investigating under the kitchen cupboards and getting slightly dusty which he did as a matter of course and without complaint! I’ll definitely use his services again and will be recommending him to family and friends. First class service! Highly recommended!

Lloyd replaced some halogen lights in ny bathroom with new LED ones, recommended fitting a dimmer which has made an improvement to the bathroom, and fixed up an overhead light in a bedroom. He did the jobs quickly, and when we found that not all of the cutouts were the same size he got hold of some ones that did fit and sorted it out on the same day. He tidied up afterwards. He is friendly and trustworthy. I would be happy to hire him again.

I booked lloyd for some landlord checks through 'trust a tradar' as he was one of the top rated electricians. First impression was how easy it was to book the visit though his online booking system. When he came he was very professional, polite and friendly. While carrying out the tests he explained what he was looking for and the reason and recommendation behind things that needed improvement, like using different lighbulbs so they don't blow as much. After the job was completed payment was also really easy. We got an email with our invoice and a link to make payment via PayPal if we chose. When you're really busy it's small things like that, that make a big difference. I will definitely use lloyd again, and reccomend him to anyone in need of an electrician.

Lloyd was recommended to me. Making an enquiry, booking and having the work done was efficient. Lloyd recommended, made good, installed and adapted points, lights and an electric heater. Work was done exactly as he said it would be - and where things changed on the job he was totally accomdating. Would highly recommend.

Lloyd is a great electrician, very professional, I feel safe in the knowledge that everything Lloyd does complies to the highest standard of safety and workmanship. I’ve asked Lloyd for recommendations of other trades people when looking to remodel my bathroom. I trust his judgment.

Lloyd was a great find, and I'd definitely have him back if I need more work doing. He was efficient and prompt in quoting for the work and getting me booked in. He did a great job on rewiring and bringing my home up to standard, and he fitted some nice sockets and light fittings. And he was cheerful throughout. Very pleased.

The experience of getting a quote, booking Lloyd in to do electrical work and his execution of the work was straightforward and efficient. Lloyd explained clearly what the job would entail and kept me informed throughout. He was flexible about doing some extra work and made sure that everything was finished off well. He is very personable and was a pleasure to communicate with. I would definitely employ Lloyd again in the future.

Lloyd is the consummate professional. He is conscientious, thorough and kept us completely informed throughout the booking and delivery of his service. We can wholeheartedly recommend him and he will be our 'go to' person for all electrical work in the future.

Lloyd did some remedial work in my flat for the electrics to be safe certificated.I was very pleased with his work.He is very professional ,reliable and trustworthy.I intend to use him again in the future.

The finished work included new sockets and new LED under cupboard kitchen lights. The work had been quoted for and the appointment arranged, the work was slightly cheaper than the quote. Both home visits included a tracker to know the arrival time. The work is excellent and did not require any making good. Very helpful and explained all the work. I have booked Lloyd for further work and am happy to recommend his firm.

Very happy with Lloyd's work . It was a really straightforward process to book him to come and look at what needed to be done, receive a quote and then book the time for the work to carried out. I needed all of my kitchen down-lighters replacing with LED lights and a dimmer switch, 2 bedroom lights installing as well as a heat alarm and 2 smoke alarms. Lloyd supplied good quality fittings & fitted junction box covers when he discovered they were missing on existing wiring and everything was done to the agreed schedule and budget. I'd have no hesitation in recommending him to others for his professional and conscientious approach in doing the best job for his customer.

Lloyd recently completed work for us at a property which we rent out. Lloyd’s online booking system is excellent with booking and tracking appointments made very easy. The job was done efficiently and the tenants are very pleased with his work. We have used Lloyd previously and will do again. Thank you again Lloyd!

Lloyd made my electric cooker and oven safe after another tradesman wired the two using a single socket and potentially put our lives at risk. Lloyd's work was clean, tidy and completed to an excellent and most importantly, safe level. Thank you Lloyd!

Lloyd repaired an earth fault in my kitchen that was leading to electric shocks from the oven. I was very impressed - he is very professional and a nice guy to work with. The whole process from quotation through to making the repair was very smooth and his online booking system is great. Communication is spot on - he explained everything he was doing and what options there were to fix the problem.

Lloyd is very friendly, helpful and straightforward - exactly the right character for a professional electrician. We needed the removal of a redundant light and switch; he knew how it was likely to have been installed in the 1980's and was able to remove it very quickly and efficiently, explaining as he went. Lloyd fitted us in before his holiday, so we're grateful that he did the work at short notice. Great, thank you Lloyd and have a good holiday.

Lloyd was very professional and polite. He understood what needed to be fixed and talked it through with us so that we understood what works would be undertaken. I would highly recommend Lloyd.

I would highly recommend Lloyd. He explains everything he is doing clearly and is very friendly. You can tell from the first few seconds that he is an expert and completely reliable and trustworthy. He was slightly delayed getting to me, but he communicated this very clearly and kept me updated so that it caused no extra hassle. I will definitely use him again!

Lloyd helped me fix a burnt-out dimmer switch which he did quickly and carefully. He was helpful and straightforward and when I asked about some ideas I had for lighting gave careful guidance. I have asked for quotes for other projects and intend to use his services again.

Lloyd is very congenial. He was knowledgeable and assessed the problem quickly. He spent time offline to look for parts and gave me a good estimate and completed the work quickly and cleaned up after himself. Would use him again.

Have used Lloyd on more than one occasion. He is very knowledgeable and helpful and always explains what he is doing very clearly. Will be using again.

Lloyd is timely, polite, explains everything and I feel you can trust him %100! I highly recommend him as a trusted electrician! than Lloyd now He brought my electrics up to certification standard and installed a fantastic bathroom fan Very pleased customer I wouldn't use any other electrician other than him now and going forwards.

Highly recommend Lloyd. Very professional, friendly, tidy and honest. Lloyd takes pride in his work and is very thorough. I asked a million questions and he was very patient and answered all my questions. Lloyd is very reliable and I am so grateful for his service as I had two electricians who did not want to take on the job because it was a huge job. Thank you Lloyd.

Lloyd is fantastic. Please don't waste your time going anywhere else. I was blown away by his thorough yet inviting advert hence deciding to go with him. Obviously with anyone new you worry about mess, standard of work, snags and most importantly your house being left looking like a horror movie. All my concerns were alleviated and Lloyd left my place in stellar condition each time. His work is second to none and he has great banter. He knows what he's doing and doesn't rush. You won't be disappointed.

Lloyd was great. Fitted a mains powered smoke alarm in no time. Will be definitely be using his services in the future!

Lloyd did a great job in moving plugs and switches for my kitchen devices. He talked me through the options of what's possible and the pros and cons and came up with a great solution. Very happy with the work and would highly recommend him.

I’ve now used Lloyd for two separate jobs and can say that he’s consistently professional, knowledgeable, pleasant, and thorough. At all stages, Lloyd offered options as to how we could reach a solution, and was always upbeat about the work. He’s definitely an electrician you want on your contacts list.

Lloyd was pleasant and professional and completed the work required well. A little more planning would have been good. I will definitely use him again for future work.

Lloyd installed three new plug sockets and replaced some faulty wiring. He gave a very fair quote with no extra charges, and did a very professional job. He was friendly and knowledgeable and I would definitely use him again.
