Highlights

Electra Electrical Contractors Have been doing necessary electrical work for me at home and for my rental properties for several years. The standard of work has been excellent and done on time. Bill is easy to deal with and his charges are reasonable. I trust his advice concerning my projects. I expect to use his services in the future.

We had a problem with the lights tripping and loosing power. Bill come out and provided us with a set of options to address the issue. He then carried out the work and I can say that the lights are perfect now and we have not had any issues since. This is not the first time we have used Electra, they often come out to provide safety certificates or carry out the work and they always deliver fantastic service. I'd thoroughly recommend Bill and Electra.

I was unable to turn off my bathroom fan. I quickly found a Which Trusted Trader, having had bad experiences with electricians in the past . Bill (Balbir) Dhillon, was able to come later on the same day to disconnect it. We discussed what my options were, and I was pleased to be told the price of replacement, the fee for labour, and the amount of time it would take to complete the replacement..( the fan was really quite old). We made an arrangement for the following week, and Bill rang to confirm the date and time. He was punctual..the job was completed quietly and professionally, and everything in the bathroom was left tidy and clean. And the price was as we had agreed and very reasonable. I then asked if he would consider putting a security light in for me. This was also completed within budget, and Bill returned to make an adjustment…having said this may be necessary. I am so pleased to have found someone trustworthy and knowledgeable. I won’t t be looking anywhere else if I need another electrical job. Thank you Bill.

Oven Installation

Prior to our new oven installation, contact details were provided for a workman to remove the old oven. Both the removal of the old oven and the installation of its replacement were carried out in a friendly and efficient manner. Highly recommended.

Highly Recommend

Bill was recommended by my neighbour and I asked him to quote for various jobs (repairing sockets and light switches, fixing spot lights and under counter lights in the kitchen and installing new lights in the bathroom). He gave the best and most cost effective options for the jobs required and made me aware of safety regulations and requirements for wall lights to be replaced in my bathroom (he also helped me to identify suitable light fittings for that job to meet those regulations). Bill arrived promptly on the day, worked efficiently and was flexible about me adding additional items at the last minute. His work was first rate and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.

wiring for electric cooker

I have used Electra for several years on large and small electrical jobs. Bill Dillon has always been very reliable and helpful in quoting for work and performing as promised in a timely manner. He is able to advise on the best way to achieve a good cost effective result that complies with all the required safety regulations supplying any necessary documentation.

Thank you for the excellent service

Had an issue with the electrics and needed my fuse box changed. After an issue with another electrician called Bill to come and fix. He arrived promptly at the time we agreed and the price was very reasonable. The paperwork was supplied promptly on completion. Very satisfied with the service and have already referred him to my parents. Thank you for your assistance

What to check before you hire

Worth checking yourself
Always confirm credentials and quotes with the business directly before hiring.
Verify at the sourceCheck them yourself

Electrical work in homes in England & Wales should be done by a registered competent person who can self-certify it meets the Part P safety rules. Check they're on the official register.

Check the electrical register
In England and Wales, notifiable electrical work (new circuits, a consumer unit, anything in a bathroom or kitchen) must by law be signed off under Part P of the Building Regulations. Confirm they will handle that.
Prefer an electrician registered with a government-approved competent-person scheme (NICEIC, NAPIT or ELECSA) so they can self-certify the work meets the wiring regulations.
Insist on the Electrical Installation Certificate (or Minor Works Certificate) when the job is done. It is your proof the work is safe and compliant, and you will need it if you ever sell.
