R and D Goulbourne Electrical Contractors LTD

What a great experience. David came to see my husband and me to quote for several bits of electrical work. He was right on time, very polite, friendly and obviously knowledgeable about his trade, guiding us through options and outcomes. I am very nervous about having any trades in the house, but David is so calm and so easy to deal with. I had a couple of ‘false starts’ when I felt I couldn’t go ahead with the work but again, David was wonderful and assured me that the work could go ahead when I was ready. The job started yesterday and David worked so hard all day, not leaving until the exterior lights he was fitting were weatherproof and safe. The lights we had chosen needed small channels making in the mortar joints and although a lot of extra work, David just got on with the job without complaint and with a ‘can do’ attitude. The works were finished this morning and I cannot thank David enough. We have agreed for additional works to be carried out when I am ready. So happy we chose Rand D Goulbourne and have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them.

I called R and D Goulbourne having seen their reviews on Which Trusted Traders in a panic on Monday evening as we had several unexplained, major electrical failures. Rupert agreed to come round first thing the next morning in spite of the fact that he was due to go on holiday to Bournemouth first thing that morning. He arrived as promised and was able to diagnose the problem quickly after some careful investigation and testing. He then fixed the problem which was a massive relief. Rupert is extremely pleasant and friendly, patient, knowledgeable and experienced and I had the utmost confidence in him. So much so that he is going to undertake a complete review of our electrics and change the fuse board at my request- not his suggestion. I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending this company (his son David also works with him) and I am so pleased to have found them.

Rupert and David arrived promptly. They are very personable and friendly. I had to replace my fuse box. They did a great job very was professional and the price was competitive.

I needed a dimmer switch changed to a double two way switch. Rupert called me back same day and quoted a price. My wife has no immune system but Rupert assured me they wear full PPE. He turned up on time with full PPE. Work completed quickly and to agreed price. Totally satisfied and thoroughly recommended. You won't be disappointed.

Found Rupert on Which TT web site. Needed work to a rental property. The job was sorted quickly and they liaised with the tenant directly. Invoice was realistic. We will certainly use their services again of needed and would highly recommend. Thanks Rupert, you made a difficult job very easy.

Rupert and David came to change/move and remove a number of light fittings, switches and sockets. They also ran data cables from the ground floor to the upper floors, and connected a video doorbell. We were really happy with the standard of work, and both Rupert and David were easy to talk to, and gave us good suggestions on what to do, as we started off pretty clueless. They even worked around our decorating, and came back to fit some sockets once other trades had been in, with no issues and no extra charge. All round great experience and hoping to work with them again in future!

Rupert fitted a new shower for me. He turned up on time, worked efficiently, was courteous and polite and the job was as quoted. I would definitely use this company again.

We are renovating part of our South London flat and David worked on installing lighting and plug sockets around some complex insulation and plastering. He also re-did the lighting in our bathroom. David and his partner were extremely professional: reliable, punctual, good workmanship and reasonable price. They also made us laugh! Highly recommended.

David was excellent and a pleasure to deal with. He arrived on time and then took the time to talk us through the issue and the corrective measures which needed to take place so we really understood everything well which was very reassuring. He was very professional in his approach and was even considerate when I was making conference calls. The quality of his finish was excellent and pricing very fair. He left the place neat and tidy after he was done - I am very grateful for his service and would highly recommend him.

David did an excellent job at our house. He is amiable, punctual and thorough in his job. He always stayed late to complete the job and cleared the mess at the end of the day. Rupert and David, are very polite. They quoted the price which was reasonable and affordable to us. They did rewiring for the entire house, doing a commendable job. We are very happy with the job done by them and I have no hesitation in recommending them.
