ALB undertook electrical works to wire in new circuit. They performed pre-works survey, quotation and performed the works. They also found issue in checking the system and corrected.

New lights in kitchen and tidying up old wiring

The maximum scores are a true relection of their work. They fitted me in to accomodate me which these days is not always so. I had some extra work done and was initially slightly disappointed about the price. However, after mentioning this, Adam and Jo gave me the explanation and a small refund. Their customer relations are excellent and you get the feeling that they really care about their reputation and customer satisfaction. I can recommend them wholeheartedly.

A great company. Adam very knowledgeable and talked through all the options at quotation stage. Good team, a super job and left the place how they found it. One slight problem came up but it was thoroughly explained why and how and I was happy with the outcome. I will certainly use them for any future work I need.

Safety Inspection New Property

We moved into a repossessed property on 20/01 and had ALB attending for a safety inspection on the electrical system. A total of 21(!) defects were found, which he fully explained, mostly as a result of overzealous DIY by previous occupant. Adam rectified immediate dangers and safety items promptly and gave us the available options to rectify the remainder. Will definitely use again to complete the outstanding and/or future work.

Full building electrical testing

We have used ALB Electrical throughout the last twelve months and have found their work, and professionalism first class. On top of this, their prices are also competitive and always keep to the submitted estimates. As a 24x7 business, with Customers contacting us constantly, it is important (read: mandatory) that any contractors on our premises are mindful of this. ALB have always shown the upmost flexibility by working around our requirements, but also delivering work that cannot be faulted. I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending them and we will certainly be using their services going forward.
