Highlights
“We have an array of projects that Gary has worked on, from re-doing all our interior lighting, to repair and replacement of switches, to relocating our Sky and wifi services, and exterior lighting repair and replacements. Basically, all sorts of electricals work all through the house. Always reliable, on time and the work is without question always a very high quality. And he is clean and tidy. First class.”
“Gary changed the halogen ceiling lights in my kitchen to LEDs. He did a great job in half the time I'd anticipated. I'd expected there to be some mess during the process but there was none whatsoever. I'd tried a few other electricians before contacting Gary. Gary was the only one who actually came to the house to give an estimate - the others simply asked for photos and one was ridiculously cheap which set alarm bells ringing. Gary also provided a detailed quotation. Gary is a consummate professional and I can't recommend him highly enough.”
“Found on Which "Trusted Traders" website. Of the 4 quotes requested Gary's was the most comprehensive and all-inclusive. Arrived on time, installed new CCU with no additional costs, despite work taking longer than anticipated. Also agreed to fit fused spur and install new oven while on site. Altogether a very professional service.”

CCU replacement - 1st rate service
Found on Which "Trusted Traders" website. Of the 4 quotes requested Gary's was the most comprehensive and all-inclusive.

Reliable and effective. Reviewed and remedied electrics in my flat and my mother’s house.
Always came on time. Always careful. No nonsense. No fuss. Hard-working and focused. With a good sense of humour to boot. Definitely recommended.
Professional work, carried out quickly
I have used Gary's services for a few years. He always arrives on time, and completes the work quickly and professionally.
Five star electrician
Gary explained clearly what we needed, gave a reasonable quote, did the work on time, very pleased with the whole job. Happy to recommend him.
Excellent service
In our old house Gary replaced an old consumer unit, replaced defective ground floor wiring and added the cross-bonding required by current electrical specifications. We were very happy with his work. He explained carefully what he was going to do, and took trouble to keep the appearance of new wiring as unobtrusive as possible. We would certainly use him again.
Highly recommended
I got in touch with Gary after finding him highly recommended on this site about two years ago. This was to install lighting in the driveway and front garden. I found his communication to be excellent, he kept to his appointment times and completed the work to a very high stand leaving the place neat and tidy. I was well satisfied and recommended him to some of friends. Since then, I have had occasion to seek his assistance again to install some internal lighting and he has not disappointed. He is my go to man for all problems electrical and I can happily recommend him.
Now I can see what I am cooking!
Gary installed a safe power supply from the house to my shed and greenhouse - for interior lighting, exterior safety lights and power sockets. He did such a good job that you can't see any wiring or evidence that he was there. He also refitted all the under unit light fittings in the kitchen - replacing ancient with modern. Now I can see what I am cooking! Gary provided excellent advice throughout, was always on time, is a very hard worker and obviously knows his trade inside out! So he gets 100% recommendation from me. John, Borehamwood
Professional job well done
Gary has done a fantastic job doing a complete rewire of my house. I have lots of plug sockets now including some with USB sockets which are very useful with new technology. All my lights are now LED so they should be economic to run. He installed a new up to date fuse box and wired in smoke alarms. Both he and I are very pleased with the tv's he installed with no cables or boxes showing. Very neat. He was very knowledgeable and gave me helpful advice. Although wiring is hidden in the walls, I am very proud of the work he did for me. I would not hesitate to recommend Gary.
Excellent work - couldn't fault it!
Gary provided lighting throughout the garden amongst flower beds and a power source under pergola then lighting and power source in shed and wired up the water feature.
Exactly what you hoped for
Having recently moved into a new home which required plenty of TLC, i have engaged with numbers of different tradesman with varying degrees of success. Gary was definitely one of the stand out performers, and provided advice on both internal & external electrical matters, and implemented an agreed scope with the minimum of fuss. From someone who never leaves a review, I would highly recommend Gary if you're looking for an efficient way to reduce your stress levels
A real professional.
We booked Gary to install some under cupboard lights, extra 13amp sockets and a light fitting in a bedroom. On visiting to ascertain the work involved, Gary gave us some very useful tips about suitable light fittings and types of LED bulbs to provide correct lighting at the best price. Gary sent us an on-line quote very quickly and when we arranged a date and time for the work to be carried out he arrived 'spot on'. Nothing was too much trouble for him - he even brought his own vacuum cleaner and cleaned and tidied up as he went alone. If you want an electrician who takes pride in his work and for whom nothing is too much trouble, Gary is your man.
Great Electrician
Gary chased in and changed all the sockets and light fittings in my living room and kitchen. He did a great job, was polite and professional, gave good advice and left everything neat and tidy. I would definitely recommend him.
Extremely professional
Gary was extremely professional and completed the work to a very high standard. Gary took time out late in the evening to help us following an emergency and could not have been more helpful, he then completed the quotes and work we needed promptly and professionally. We will definitely use Gary again and would recommend his services.
Highly Recommended Electrician
We have just moved into a new property and are finding various electrical issues that need to be rectified. Gary provided expert guidance and advice and outlined various options both at the start and during the job. Examples of the work undertaken range from changing light switches and external LED lights to installing a video doorbell and new lights in one of the bedrooms. Gary is very friendly and approachable and very willing to make suggestions on which products to use or what can be done to resolve an issue. Prompt timekeeping and very clear communication of what would be done when and the related costs throughout the process. Value for money in terms of the work undertaken. Will definitely use again as we move to the next project. Highly recommended and its good to know that we now have an electrician we can rely on.
Excellent work, 5 stars!!
Kitchen and bathroom spot lights all replaced professionally and swiftly. Excellent workmanship and a delightful manner. I would absolutely recommend Gary to anyone that needs electrical work carried out
Pleasant, helpful and efficient.
I am eighty-nine and Gary did three small, but important, jobs for me quickly and efficiently. In the kitchen he removed the old light fitting in the ceiling, checked the wiring and put up a new light fitting. In the bathroom he supplied and fitted a fan heater with RCD. in a bedroom he removed an old style lighting pendant and supplied and fitted a new one. Gary is a very good worker.

This trade isn't licensed in the UK, so anyone can set up. TrustMark is the only Government-endorsed quality scheme for work in and around the home - check whether they're registered, or find a TrustMark-registered business.
Check the TrustMark registerNever pay a large deposit up front. Agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow. Both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
