M E Electrical (North East) Ltd

I had 4 faulty down lights that needed replacing and Pete originally gave a timescale of 6-8 weeks, but found time on a Saturday afternoon the week I inquired. The work area was left neat and tidy and the new lights look great

M E Electrical (North East) ltd, were found using "Which?" Trusted Traders. The quote was prompt and detailed, such that he won the contract. Because of an accident I had to delay the job for some time, which was accepted without problem. Eventually the trader was able to gain access to repair some lights and fit a new set in a different room. All this was achieved quickly and cleanly, he even wanted to vacuum the room on completion, although he had used covers to catch the bits and pieces. A very pleasant and helpful young man, whom I would not hesitate to recommend to you.

This was the 2nd time we have used ME Electrical. First they carried out works to move wiring and install a new media system in the lounge. Next time they carried out all necessary electricals for a bedroom refurb. Each time they did the following, and importantly always when agreed: came round to give an estimate, with lots of very practical and helpful advice as to the options; provided the estimate; commenced and finished the work on time. The work was carried out to an excellent standard, they fitted in around other contractors, and left the place spotless. In addition, always positive and cheerful. There were no hidden extras. ME Electrical also responded promptly to a recent trip switch problem, and gave advice which resolved the issue. There were no false promises, no going silent for days, no leaving unannounced part way through a job.... I couldn't rate them highly enough.

I needed some varied electrical works carrying out at a rental property. We have used many electricians over the years, but I can honestly say Pete from ME Electrical has beaten all others hands down. He is an absolute pleasure to deal with, extremely knowledgeable and throughout the process of getting the works done he communicated so well, always replying to messages straightaway. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough and will definitely be using Pete and the company in the future.

M E Electrical recently completed a full rewire of our property and we would absolutely recommend Pete and Michael to anyone who was considering who they should employ to carry out their Electrical work. From the very first contact with them they were been extremely helpful with honest advice and help in how we could proceed. Due to the amount of work needed to be done on our property, very little could be done without having the rewire completed which would then enable us to move forward with everything else. We were desperate to have the rewiring done and M E Electrical, despite being extremely busy and about to undertake a large project they had planned over the next few months, they went out of their way to find a way of undertaking the work we desperately needed. Pete, Michael and their team including Tony and Cooper embarked on the rewire within a week. Every obstacle they came across (and there were a few to say the least) they carried out with professionalism but also with a sense of humour. Nothing was too much trouble for them. They cleaned up after themselves after each day and due to the state of our property, in some areas, it looked better than when they started!!! We really can't thank them enough. No doubt, as we both progress with the rest of our renovation we'll need their help again but we can rest assured that they will be only too willing to offer any assistance they possibly can. Thank you so much.

Pete did me an EICR. This was a big job because I have a large house and there are two fuse boxes. He came when he said he would, charged what he said he would and arrived on time. I was impressed by how thorough he was. He explained all the technicalities to me. Unfortunately, my system did not meet the current electrical standards and was deemed unsatisfactory. So I asked him to deal with the “Immediate” and “urgent” items. He came back within a week and did so. This involved putting a thicker earth cable between my fuse boxes at the front of the house and the gas and water pipes at the back of the house. The path between these was blocked by two concrete floors. Pete identified three possible solutions and we agreed on one of these. It was not the easiest option because it involved crawling under the floorboards. However, it was the most professional and neatest and, even when the earth cable went outside, Pete tucked it away so that it was inconspicuous. I was impressed that he went for the best solution and not the one that was easiest for himself. My overall impression was that he was highly experienced and very professional. And he gets bonus extra points because, unlike many tradesmen nowadays, he did not ask me to write him a favourable review.
