Engineer Service Visit

Had our alarm fitted and maintained Welwyn Garden Alarms for a number of years now, and the recent battery service visit was quickly organised to our timescales and carried out out promptly and professionally by their engineer. Excellent Service.

Professional service

Having had a monitored home alarm for over 30 years, during that time the initial company who installed the alarm was taken over, then the taken over company was taken over, then another multinational company ended up taking over, during this time the quality of service diminished leading me to contact Welwyn Garden Alarms, I initially spoke to Peter the owner some 3 years ago and can highly recommend his company

Knowledgable, friendly and efficient

Having moved house into a property with an unfamiliar system, we reached out to have it serviced. The engineer was patient, knowledgable and happy to run through everything as many times as we needed in order to be comfortable, we understood every detail and sensor. A follow-up made us feel in good hands, and an accidental triggering resulted in a near immediate contact call. Superb service all round from Welwyn Garden Alarms Ltd

A job done well.

A very quick initial response - had to chase for a follow up but once in the “system” response times were good. Day of change over (from an existing service supplier) was completely without drama. The technician Taylor knew what he was doing, was very respectful of my home and I barley knew he was there (a good thing). Whilst not the cheapest they are competitively priced.

Excellent, trustworthy, friendly service.

I have a burglar alarm which is serviced annually. I have been a customer for many years. Recently, we had a new window fitted. Welwyn Garden Alarms arranged placement of a new alarm to that window the following day. It was easy to arrange. The staff are always friendly, trustworthy and professional. There is continuity with both office and engineering staff with the company which is reassuring.

House Alarm Annual Service

Having used Sentry Alarms and then Welwyn Garden Alarms for almost 20 years, I have always found the people friendly and very easy to contact, and they always arrive on time. Our alarm system only occasionally needs a new battery, and once a new scanner, and all at a very reasonable price.

Welwyn Garden Alarms the best in the business in the Herts area

We had an 18-month delay to our house refurb project, and from the first estimate, from Welwyn Garden Alarms, to installation, Peter and the team from WGA were always there to answer our questions. In the event after commissioning, there was a lingering issue with the internal wifi connection, and it was decided to install a hard wire. Job done, system working perfectly, and we always recommend WGA to anyone who asks.

Great service all round

Have been a customer for 25+ years. Service has always been very good and personal. Generally it’s the same team members and engineers. Always very helpful and never had a problem with service in all those years. Alarm and CCTV have been very reliable. Any issues (of which there have been hardly any) have always been dealt with promptly. I have always managed to get service appointments easily to fit in with my schedule. I have another property with a different large alarm co. A completely different experience all round. Not a patch on Welwyn Garden Alarms. Wish I could use them for both!

Longstanding good service

We are longstanding residential customers of WG Alarms, now across 3 different properties, over 30 years: each time we moved home, they were one of our first calls. They've never let us down in all that time and are always available to get issues resolved

Worth checking yourself
Their public evidence comes from a single source. Look them up on another site before deciding.
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.
