Installation of a new backup generator and auto transfer switch
Thank you to Andy, Teo and team for the successful installation of the auto switching generator at Harroway Farm earlier this year. There have been two occasions when the generator has been needed and it has come on automatically with no problems and gone off again too! The generator is set up to do a bi-weekly maintenance run and this has also been successful. The whole team worked well to schedule, but special thanks must go to the very amiable and knowledgeable Teo. I would therefore highly recommend Redwood Electrical Services.

Excellent experience with electrician used for the first time
We chose Redwood because we have had good experience with Which? Trusted Traders previously, and Redwood is based near our home. We were very pleased with our choice. Andrew Wallis quickly identified the problem with our lounge wiring, reconfigured it, and replaced the three-gang switch with a one-gang one (as two of the three were no longer in use). He carefully rehung and reconnected the two wall lights which had been disconnected for a couple of years, ensuring no damage to the surrounding wallpaper. At each stage of the work he explained what he was doing.

Excellent workmanship great customer care.
Just wanted to say a big thank you to Andy and Tao for a job well done. Andy and Tao,completed a total re-wire of my property including the removing of the old wiring, and sitting down with me and designing the new layout of electrical supply to the house incl first fix and second fix. There were numourse challenges as the house was a mid 18th century cottage and the work carried out,had to be meticulous and carefully planed with care taken with the install due to the age of the property.There knowledge and expertise made the experience that much easier with decisions relating to design.Andy and Tao went above and beyond,myself and my wife are truly greatful.Thanks to you both.

Andy and Teo at Redwood are knowledgeable, experienced and reliable
We recently completed a major renovation of our house which meant we needed some significant electrical works to be done. Having used Andy before for some smaller jobs, we had no doubts that Redwood Electrical were the team to help us. From the project planning phase Andy and Teo were willing and able to provide advice on things like lighting schemes and power demand as well as recommendations on updating our existing consumer unit to be able to meet our new power requirements. The project included: Supply and fit of new and replacement wall and ceiling lighting (including any required modules and termination) as well as supply and install of brand new ceiling spots in the kitchen which we did not have before. Safe installation of new smart lighting controls. Supply and install of brand new and replacement wall sockets, many of which needed new circuits. Provision of power for brand new kitchen including oven, fridge, wine fridge, induction hob, extractor and plinth heaters. Fault finding on existing circuits, addition of new circuits, supply and install of new RCBOs and 2 new consumer units. Supply and fit all components for multiple Cat6 termination points to provide hard-wired data connectivity throughout the house. There was probably much more that Andy and Teo did including adopting last minute changes. We couldn't be happier and will definitely be using Andy and Teo again when we need to.

Another great install from Redwood Electrical Services. I needed to have a EV charger installed. The guys advised me on what charger I should go for (bearing in mind that I have solar panels too). Choose the Zappi EV Charger and it hasn't disappointed me, meets all my needs and more. Great install by Tayo, clean and tidy as ever, he even worked with their customer services to resolve an issue with the product and was able to quickly diagnose the problem and rectify the issue.

Stared with Garden Lighting Design
Upgrade for our 20 year-old garden lighting was required, so having discovered Andy Wallis, he visited to pland our requirements. Two visits and a good half day gave us he plan, and I bought the stuff required. However, I couldn't make a simple wiring job on a new toilet fan extractor work. He explained that it was no longer simple, and fixed it during a coffee break! Then a fox destroyed most of the wiring for our existing lighting, as well as the garden sprinkler system , plus a wire to a water feature submersed pump. Andy repaired that as an interim. Booked for the garden lighting, an electrical fault in an older ring main resulted in the burglar alarm becoming unstoppable, and 7 trips blowing, including that for the freezer. He put the garden on hold at 24hrs notice, and fitted a new circuit board instead, thus saving our feezer content. That alone made him a God in our eyes, but added to the fact that he explains things so well, and just isn't phased by a problem is a huge bonus. Did I add that he is immensely likeable and loves big motor bikes, which also goes down very well with ths petrol head? Oh, he has one downside, and that is he is so good that everyone wants him. Not yet!! I have a garage full of garden lights which I'd love to use before the bills get too big to do so, so me first please!. Thanks Andy, I'll put the kettle on.......

Redwood always do top notch work
Over the weekend (2-3 July) we were having problems with the house electrics and on Sunday we texted Andy (conscious that this was a Sunday) and even though just having returned from holiday Andy came round the next day - after testing every circuit it came down to the boiler. During the week our plumber came round to check the boiler together with Andy's colleague, Teo to check on the electrical side - Turned out it was the boiler that was the problem and as a btw, wasn't economical to fix so we now have a new one arriving next week. Meantime we decided to upgrade our fuse box (the old one - and was only 3 yrs old but was of an old style) - Anyhow the new box arrived a week later and Andy was back to install. While he was here Andy replaced some strip lighting under our kitchen units and also tracked down a faulty extension lead and fitted a timer to the immersion heater (as a backup - as leaving it 'on' can cost lots... as we discovered....) Everything electrical now working as it should. All work was on time - in fact quicker than we anticipated and as per estimate. Always very neat, tidy and on time. Redwood Electrical are first class and thoroughly recommendable. From our experience as a customer you are always looked after. Can highly recommend, service 2nd to none.

New consumer unit
I found Redwood Electrical Services on the NICEIC website, so I knew from the outset that Andy was well qualified and competent. He fitted a new metal consumer unit to conform to the best practice and relocated it to a more convenient position where we could reach it easily. He subsequently tested the whole electrical system thoroughly to ensure it was all working properly and was safe. He was extremely diligent. His quote included a detailed explanation of the work to be carried out, and I thought his rates were extremely good too.

I was recommended Redwood to get a quote for rewiring the whole house including new fuse board, moving lights and trebling the amount of sockets. When Andy and Teo came round to quote I was confident that they were more than capable of doing the job, they spent time working out the best way to complete the work. They gave a competitive quote and after acceptting we arranged a date.They carried out the work on the agreed dates in a very professional manner and cleaned up after themselves.

Immediate response to emergency
We suffered an electrical fire in the outside power supply room on a Saturday morning, knocking out our power and burning out the supply cabling and meter. These were reinstated by SSE and EON on emergency call out but it was also necessary to call an electrician to reconnect everything. I was recommended by a friend to call Redwood who responded immediately despite it being a Saturday afternoon. Unfortunately he established that the isolator switch box had also been terminally compromised so it was not possible to reconnect us immediately. However, he was able to source an alternative unit and return early the following week to reconnect us. This was not straightforward as new mountings had to be constructed and the weather conditions were atrocious. However, everything was done in a cheerful and confident manner. We are extremely grateful to him for all of this, not least for dropping everything on a Saturday afternoon to come round. Top marks!

Fantastic Service!
Andy very kindly installed the required electrics into my garden workshop, which included a fuse box, wiring, installation of lights and sockets and a receiver for remote lighting from the house along with a light change and fitting of external socket on the house. Our house electrics were also modified to allow the provision for the additional garden electrics. Andy gave us a sound estimate for the work and this was agreed and adhered to with no extras. The work was methodical, not rushed and very neat. I would have no hesitation about recommending Andy for any electrical work, and will definitely use him as my first port of call if any electrical work should be required again. Fantastic service.

We were very fortunate to find Andy via Trusted Traders. He removed an outdated consumer unit and installed an upgraded version in a new location along with downlights in two bathrooms and changed a number of our light fittings to Class2 and installed three smoke alarms. All of this work was carried out to the highest standards and nothing was too much trouble for him. Andy was a pleasure to deal with, extremely helpful throughout and a very good communicator. He spent a week doing our electrical work and I cannot speak too highly of his work ethic and his professional standards. I would recommend him 100% and will certainly be using his professional skills again. Thank you Andy for all your assistance and advice.

Kitchen rewire, installation and test of new consumer unit
Andy was recommended by the fitter who installed our new kitchen. The electrical work involved replacing the lighting, installing two ovens and a new hob and replacing our old consumer unit with an upgraded version. All of the work was carried out to a very high standard and it was a pleasure to deal with Andy throughout. There were a couple of occasions on which it was necessary for him to work long hours to get the job done on time and he did that without any problem. There were issues with final testing which arose from our existing wiring and Andy and his colleague did a great job of detective work in running those issues down with minimal disruption. I am very happy to recommend Redwood Electrical Services.

I have to give a seriously good review regarding Andy of Redwood Electricals. After contacting other electricians on Trusted Traders it was disappointing to find that at least 3 did not respond or turn up. Andy turned up at the promised time and returned the next day to finish the work to an excellent standard. I needed my bt socket moved to another location and a double socket added to another room and a light fitting installed. If anyone is contemplating installing electrics for charging electric/hybrid cars I would recommend you contact Andy. He is extremely knowledgeable in this area as he is with all other aspects regarding electrical installations. Andy has yet to send me his invoice but I feel confident it will be as per his original quotation.

Complete Kitchen Electrical re-fit
We undertook a full Kitchen re-fit and everything including the ceiling revealed a wiring shambles. Andy from Redwood Electrical came in (on a very good recommendation) and assessed the situation, provided lighting options to complement the new Kitchen and was very open and honest about the cost. It was a sizable electrical job, estimated at 5 to 6 days covering a great deal of work. A lot of new appliances, all new lighting, some garage work (I moved the boiler, washing machine and Spin Driver to the garage) some outdoor stuff and not to forget a new RCBO. This was a large project, as it was not just a new kitchen but also a new kitchen bi-fold install, and incorporated a utility room into the kitchen. Fortunately, Andy was very flexible in being able to spread his time as the electrical work needed to be spread over a few weeks. Communication, timing and his professional approach were excellent. The cost came in on budget, even though we added some extra small bits during the project. I would have no hesitation in recommending Andy, and will certainly use his service again in future.

Professional, thorough and excellent value
Having received an extortionate quote for electrical work at one of my properties, I turned to Andy (on the basis of his rhapsodical reviews on Trusted Trader) and was not disappointed. His detailed critique of the work of the previous company's work was a depressing eye-opener, and his quote for the necessary remedial work extraordinarily reasonable. He did the work (replacing the non-compliant consumer unit) very quickly, and went out of his way to leave no trace of his passing. The most praiseworthy (and, in my experience, most unusual) aspect of his excellent work is that he spends client money as it if were his own, doing that which needed to be done and no more. My previous quote had incorrectly specified other, very expensive, work as being vital. but Andy identified this and eshewed the unnecessary tasks and expense. Very impressive.

Second time we have used Andy. First time was to make sense of a myriad of wiring in the hallway that had got me to the point of exasperation. An hour or so and Andy had it working and now have hall and outside lights and the lounge led lights no longer glow! Andy came back and went through bits that we needed doing as the kitchen was pulling way too much amps for the board. I knew the board was old and would need replacing however this became a priority when Andy was doing the testing. He provides good common sense advice which allows you to get a balanced approach. On time, polite and efficient. Andy got on with the job despite a sore back and even had an early lunch when I inadvertently fell asleep in the chair (good excuse - had just finished night shift!!). We now have a board that will take any new loads and has room for expansion. Price as quoted. We will be having Andy back to tidy up other bits of electrics in the new year and we recommend him without hesitation.

Kitchen update and review of electrics throughout the whole house
We contacted Andy Wallis of Redwood Electrical Services to enquire about the replacement of an electric hob and the installation of a warming drawer. It was found that our existing Consumer Unit did not have RCD circuit protection and that the existing wiring was not up to the proposed new electrical loading. This presented another problem with the need to route the replacement cable under the flooring – a fairly complicated job. Over two days, all the work was carried out to a very high standard and the new and larger replacement Consumer Unit was re-positioned more conveniently in the garage. We are very pleased with the overall result, and the whole house was inspected and tested for any potential electrical safety problems.

Over two days, all the work was carried out to a very high standard and the new and larger replacement Consumer Unit was repositioned more conveniently in the garage. We are very pleased with the overall result, and the whole house was inspected and tested for any potential electrical safety problems. Andy was always friendly (and even managed to make friends with our cat ? which is rare for strangers). His work is thorough and neat, and we are happy that an experienced and well qualified person has done a really professional job. We would have no hesitation in recommending Andy Wallis and Redwood Electrical to others and would certainly use him again.

We called in an expert
We recently moved into a new-built flat. It is lovely, but there were various electrical things that weren't quite as we would like. Andy is a star! He listened carefully and told us how we could achieve what we hoped for. Everything was very efficiently modified, or installed- light switches and electric radiators moved, new outlets in place, ceiling lights and dimmer switch installed. Andy's work was top quality - everything done well with no fuss or mess. He had previously installed a ceiling light in the kitchen of our old house, so we knew we were calling in an expert! And he is a great person to have around while he does the work.

Electrical excellence
Andy Wallis from Redwood Electrical Services is a rare commodity, he was on time, very tidy and extremely professional in his approach to the various electrical work we needed completing, rewiring our electrical fuse board installing new kitchen lighting and relocating a switch in the garage all of which he completed to the highest standard we are very appreciative that he does not compromise on quality of work or materials. We highly recommend him, for us there is no one better.

Methodical, diligent and conscientious
Living in a 16th century house means that many electricians (along with other trades) are bamboozled by a problem presented to them - not so with Andy. Given only minimal details as to possible fault, Andy set about calmly and systematically establishing the problem. This meant an overnight gap but he ensured that all flooring and wiring was left safe and operable. He kept us updated as to his progress and explained results in a language we could understand. Andy is a conscientious and considerate worker with undoubted skill and experience in his trade.

Fantastic standard of work and customer service
Andy did all the electrics for me on my garage and basement conversion, into a 1 bedroom apartment. I was left amazed by the level of professionalism, the standard of work and price. After using other electricians in the past, two that had messed me around and never finished on time, Andy was a revelation. I would highly recommend Andy to anyone and I already have. Patrick

An electrical expert
I would highly recommend Andy for any electrical problem you may have. He's extremely knowledgeable, clean and efficient in his work. He very quickly resolved the problem I had with my kitchen ceiling lights and kindly fitted in two small jobs that needed attention also. All with good humour and interesting conversation.

Reliable and works to a high standard
I contacted Redwood Electrical – Andy Wallis - because of what I read on Which? Trusted Traders and am very pleased that I did so. I have recently moved in to a 55 year old house that needed attention. Andy came up with solutions to extending and improving both ring main and lighting circuits and made recommendations as to the best lighting in a new kitchen and dining room. All work was carried out to a high standard and in good time. Later, when a glitch cropped up he returned without delay to solve the problem. He also made friends with our cat - she is very particular about whom she associates with. Good value for money. I have more work to be done so will definitely ask Andy Wallis to do it.

Full house rewiring. Another very satisfied customer.
If you are looking for a polite, knowledgeable, competent, reliable and good value electrician in the Surrey Heath area, Andy is your man! We were very unlucky being let down by our previous “electrician” who gave a runner leaving the full house rewiring job half way through with many wires unlabelled. Andy was the only electrician that took over this challenging job and successfully completed it to a very high standard and to our great satisfaction. Andy was extremely friendly and approachable whilst working at our property which made an already stressful experience a lot more calming and reassuring. We are very pleased with the quality of the work, the time keeping and the friendly and polite service. Andy was also very happy to share his knowledge explaining everything he was asked about in a very comprehensive fashion. Superb, thorough and professional service! Would totally recommend and use again. Thank you very much indeed, Andy!

Andy fit seamlessly into our busy lives. He is both tidy and efficient and works to an excellent standard. He listened to all our electrical problems, made valuable suggestions based on years of experience in order to make most efficient use of lighting solutions and save us time and money in the future. It was a real pleasure to have him with us and looking forward to round two of the electrical update! Great guy. Great electrician!

A great job done.
Although the job took longer to complete than expected because a supplier initially supplied incorrect lighting equipment we were always kept fully informed. The work was completed to our entire satisfaction. It was a pleasure to have Andy in the house and he worked diligently, professionally and efficiently at all times. He was meticulous in clearing up after each visit and we will certainly use Redwood for our future electrical requirements. We would not hesitate to recommend this company to others.

garden lighting system
First time I have used Redwood, but I will continue to do so, should electrical needs arise. We had some lights fitted which hadn't been installed properly. Andy found what the problem was and he was courteous, tidy and efficient in replacing what needed to be replaced and he left the whole system running well. Very knowledgeable (other electricians had tried and failed to solve the problem,) very reasonable (telling me to buy the things which I could source as cheaply as he could) and very friendly. A real delight to use.

Change of light fitting
I called Redwood to help change an old light fitting with a LED light set I recently purchased. The light also had a fan on the circuit so it was beyond me to fit it myself. Andy took time to understand what I wanted on the phone and came round on a Sunday. He was polite punctual and above all professional and did a great job. I would recommend Redwood Electrical Services to anyone who is considering having electrical work done. They will be the first company I call when I need other work doing.

Fuse box replacement
We are very pleased with the work Andy carried out for us. I wanted the old fuse box replaced with a modern circuit breaker box and some plugs changed. Andy went over the house and identified some previous wiring jobs that were not up to modern standards, including a potentially dangerous mess of wiring in the garage. Everything was clearly explained to us and an itemised invoice provided for all the work. He carried out the work efficiently and to a high standard and I am so pleased with result and the knowledge that our electrics are now all safe up to current standards. Andy was always friendly, professional and very thorough in his work and I would certainly recommend him.

This took over 2 hours, but once he had identified the fault, he fixed it satisfactorily. I'm still waiting for the bill...

Knowledgeable, professional
Andy was asked to replace our old fuse box - which he done within the day and stuck to the more than fair price he originally quoted after only seeing another quote from a different electrician, and a few phone calls. As a first time buyer and finally moving out of my parents house money was obviously tight for me, and the property had a range of different electrical 'issues' to say the least - Andy was more than willing to offer expert advice and testing on all these issues throughout the property after we had done as much DIY ourselves as possible - to have an expert like Andy willing to check everything over and even offer advice on the best (and most importantly safe) way of dealing with the issues in the property was perfect, I would rate and recommend Andy to anybody needing expert advice or services.

Changing Halogen Ceiling Lights to LED.
Andy came to change our halogen lights to LED. This involved replacing all the old halogen ceiling lights (almost sixty of them) and sourcing the appropriate dimmer modules so that the new LEDs would dim like the halogen lights. He gave good advice for the different light options, rigging up a couple of different examples before we chose which light to go for. He was very friendly and tidied up any dust created from fitting the new lights. He kept strictly to his time schedule and budget which was much appreciated. We had Andy working in the house for six days and his polite and relaxed manner meant that it was a pleasure to have him in the house. We have a few more bathroom lights and wall uplighters that we intend to change from halogen to LED and I wouldn't ask anyone else to fit these lights. I would have no hesitation to recommend Andy to family and friends.
