From first enquiring about solar and our options regarding maximising the power/batteries etc, the team were excellent. There is no pressure at all and they even advised against extra panels as it would not give a benefit, other companies would sell you anything to increase the prices but Smart Homes don't. The work they did was outstanding and very considered in terms of dust generation and mess (hardly any mess at all but they asked if we could move our washing in just in case of any dust). The explanations and walkthrough about the system with the team once installed was again well considered. The communication either via phone or email is fast and they are happy to talk about anything to ensure your happy with your system. The installation team themselves are great, polite, helpful, courteous and friendly. I highly recommend them to anyone looking at getting a solar system.

The team worked hard installing our solar /battery system despite the freezing temperatures in December and January. They were a friendly team and customer focussed. We would gladly have them back on site. The system is working well and generating some reasonable kwh so we should meet our proposed savings plan!

I cannot commend Smart Homes Electrical highly enough. In September '24 we were entirely new to the photovoltaic world. I sent an exploratory email to Tom Mastin and by return was informed that Will Chamberlain, their sales and support engineer was going to be in contact. We went through the various options with Will's knowledgeable help. Will designed the specifics of our proposed system and Ben, Jack and Tom installed the new system on a steep roof in Matlock over 3 days. The team was superb down to each individual; as a company they do what they state in their literature. They did a great job and the system is already delivering. The Tesla Powerwall 3 (battery and inverter) and the associated app are something to behold. I'm very impressed and recommend Smart Homes Electrical with pleasure and without reservation.

This company was introduced to us by friends in October. Tom Mastin, the professionalism and communications impressed from the start. After a few months of pause and mulling options we were being drawn to a Tesla Powerwall 2 PV solution and were disappointed that Smart Homes Electrical didn't offer that any more. Never mind we did have another reputable and local company in tow. Imagine our delight when a chance contact in mid March revealed that SHE had resumed fitting Tesla batteries. Tom visited on 18th March and we ended up with a quote for the 14 panels, Tesla Powerwall, EV charger plus micro inverters which optimise panel performance across the East and West roofs wonderfully and which we had not previously heard. Oh, and this was a better quote with a good saving too. The work was booked in for April 2nd and 3rd. Ben and team were knowledgeable, effective and totally tuned in with our needs By 4th our bird netting fitter has been too, Ben had returned to complete commissioning and we were up and running. SHE admin and support from Will and Amanda was equally good. Highly recommended for quality, service, sound advice, professionalism, reliability and value for money.

Steven did a great job of a new fuse box, earth spike, water and gas meter earthing and new cooker connections. Everything tested and done properly with certificates. Top bloke, great value, would definitely recommend.

Turned up on time, looked at and then did the job which was brilliant as I thought he'd go away and price it up first. Did a really good job, and very tidy as well, he obviously thinks a lot about the aesthetics and advises you if he feels the wiring will look a bit messy and comes up with alternatives. Really pleased and would recommend him.

I had Scott come to me to rewire the TV to be mounted on the wall. He was excellent. Friendly, tidy and when there was a slight mishap with the buildings wiring which knocked of the Internet and he came back the next day and rectified it for me. I can’t fault Scott and his buddy. Would definitely recommend. 🌟

Scott and team were both professional and tidy finishing the job much sooner than I expected. He came in with a really good price and stuck to it! Would highly recommend,you won’t be disappointed! Thanks again Scott.

Had a full re-wire from Scott Marsden Electrical and very happy with the total service from the initial visit to completion. A very good professional team and after I moved back in there was very little to clean up as they had done a great job. Thoroughly recommend.

Amazing service tonight from Nathan at Harris. Phoned Nathan at 2030 this evening after having issues with our fuse board and he arrived at our property within 20 minutes in good spirit, un effected and ready to crack on which I personally thought was above and beyond for starters after learning he had a newborn daughter at home. Nothing was too much or too little for Nathan and he is retuning out of hours tomorrow to replace the fuse board. A very humble chap with a with a lot of care and knowledge to spread. Would 100% recommend and we will 100% use again, and from now on. Many thanks Nathan, you have really put our minds at ease.

Can’t rate this guy highly enough. I had a bit of a late night electrical emergency with my main fuse box tripping, power off all over the house and two very unhappy children. Other places I rang were happy to come out and charge a call out fee but the lovely bloke at Harris Electrical talked me through some trouble shooting and I was able to restore power. Good old fashioned professionalism and honesty and they’ve won a new customer next time I have an issue. Would highly recommend.

Booked Harris Electrical in for CNS Media who came in and fitted some additional floor boxes as well as linking up some RJ45 ports from the floor boxes into our comms cabinet. He went out of his way to work out of hours to ensure noise was kept to a minimum and to not disrupt the working day. Couldn't have asked for better service and would definitely recommend to anybody else.

Excellent service from Projan Electrical Service this morning. Lee was very friendly, efficient and explained everything thoroughly to me during and afterwards. He was a pleasure to deal with and I'd definitely recommend him. Very satisfied with the job he did. Thank you.

Lee Travis of Projan Electrical provided an excellent service when supplying a new consumer unit along with other work at my home address. He was knowledgable and extremely helpful from quoting to completing the work. Would highly recommend. KP.

Many thanks to Lee for his friendly approach and good nature. Electrical problems are not a problem at all when this pro is involved. This guy knows his stuff. The first time we had a short circuit with the switches. Lee came, replaced it and fixed it in a few minutes. I want to note that it was a weekend. The second time we had a broken electric cooker. We had nothing to cook on. Lee came, quickly figured it out, fixed it, advised what else needed to be done. And again everything works. Clean and fast work, clear approach and knowledge of his business. I recommend Lee and his team to everyone. Дякую друже Лі.👍

My Wife and I were very impressed with Neale’s workmanship and professionalism, our kitchen area was left immaculate once the work was complete, all elements of the task were fully explained to us before any works were carried out, would highly recommend

Rating: 5 / 5

I highly recommend Neale. He is an excellent, skilled electrician - from the big to the small jobs - and a polite, professional, who gets back to you straight away, arrives on time and completes the work with a high level of service.

Rating: 5 / 5

We called Neale in as we had no electricity in our bathroom and the fan in the downstairs loo was intermittent. We were very happy with Neale's work and he corrected the faults quickly. We would certainly use Neale Brendon in the future and recommend him for any electrical work.

Rating: 5 / 5

Neale was great from start to finish, he was able to provide advice on what options I have as well as a quote for the work very quickly and has done an excellent job of replacing my under cupboard kitchen lights. Neale left the kitchen spotless. Would absolutely use Neale again for anything electrical within my home and will recommend him to family and friends.

This is the second time I have used Positive Electrics. This time I asked them to upgrade the lights in my kitchen, loft and outside to LEDs and motion activated where appropriate . James was very good an advising me about light levels - tone and brightness - which was helpful as I grew up with 40, 60 and 100w bulbs. He also advised me about replacing my burglar alarm and 2 old extractor fans in bathroom areas. The estimates were clearly laid out and I understood exactly what work was being done and roughly how long it would take. The team ( 2 electricians and a mate) that came to do the work were fantastic. I was working from home that day with a heavy schedule and they were very careful in planning their work so it didn’t disrupt mine. They were a pleasure to have in the house, very polite and friendly and they explained how all the new kit worked especially the burglar alarm. Before leaving they made sure I was happy and they tidied everything up and hoovered. I strongly recommend them.

James and his team are top quality! They did wiring in most rooms, putting new lights on, new switches and new sockets on with new hobs in the kitchen. They communicated effectively with me, with their works they are doing. The lads are really good at what they do. James has been responsive and his customer service is great. I look forward to be working with this team again in my next investment project!

We were nervous about using a firm found online, (it didn't work for us last time) and since our previous electrician retired , one of our old (35years) storage heaters also retired ! We were so pleased to find James and his team. He helped us decide on a replacement, explaining very patiently all the options, provided quotes, and gave a date. Two pleasant young gentlemen duly arrived, and completed the job . No mess, no fuss. They explained how the new equipment worked ( easy really) and removed all their rubbish. Nothing left behind. Simples. What a pleasant experience !

Had a partial rewire plus other work. I had every confidence in this company at every stage. Excellent value, a comprehensive estimate and all work completed on time. The guys were very conscientious and considerate, doing their best to minimise any disturbance and always leaving the house tidy. I would strongly recommend Positive Electrics.

I contacted James very last minute after the dishwasher had leaked, tripped the electrics and damaged the socket and plug. He was upfront about cost from the start, gave loads of great advice and did extra checks whilst he was here. James was really friendly and nothing was too much trouble for him.

Rating: 5 / 5

Amazing service! James came out to us a few months ago when Virgin Media cut through our electricity cable whilst installing fibre and didn't tell us 🙄 James came out at very short notice and identified the problem and advised us what to do next. He also gave us really useful advice about our ageing fuse box! Would highly recommend to anyone 😊

James was excellent. Helped with installing a number of lights in my property. Excellent with advice and recommendations. Efficient and reliable. Plus the overall costs were very reasonable indeed. Excellent work.

I rang Sam on a mid-morning weekday, worried because we’d lost power to several of our rooms, and I couldn’t figure out why. He talked the problem through, suggested some diagnostic tests I could do myself, and assured me that he’d come around at lunchtime, just a couple of hours later. He turned up as promised, set to work efficiently, and soon identified the problem (a faulty RCD switch in the electrical panel). He explained that he would have to go and get a replacement, and would be back at the end of the day, after he had completed some other scheduled jobs. He was – again – as good as his word, and he reappeared not long after 1730. It didn’t take him long to replace the faulty part … and power was fully restored. Problem solved. Sam is a friendly, efficient and responsible individual, and I would have no hesitation in asking him to tackle any other electrical issues we might have in the future. Very happy to recommend.

Sam was incredibly helpful from the off, he took his time to work out the best way to do the job and we are really happy with the end result. Punctual, reliable and very professional, he even cleaned up after he’d finished! I would not hesitate to recommend Sam and we will definitely use SK Electrical for any future electrical or security work.
