Company Profile

We are a relatively small firm of electricians that specialises in all types of domestic and retail systems.  We undertake all sizes and types of work, too.

  • As should be expected, we are very keen to provide the best possible customer service. 
  • We are told that we are different in that our enthusiasm and pro-activity really shines through (we like homes and helping make them better places to live in).
  • We are educated, design literate, friendly people.  We have all the experience, qualifications, affiliations, insurance possible and our work is guaranteed in writing.

More important than all this is that we are only finished when we know our work is safe, will last... looks good... and you are likely to recommend or use again.

Visual inspection and advice on electrics in newly purchased flat

We called Alex out to have a look at the electrics in our flat after British Gas had inspected them and said that they were unsafe. He arrived on time, very professional and had a common sense approach. He quickly inspected everything and put our minds at ease, that apart from a couple of minor points, everything was safe. Brilliant service and wouldn't hesitate to recommend and will use again next time we need work done. Thanks Alex

Removal of old power socket, provision of double socket by extension in new location, RCBO protection of associated old circuitry, making good to skirting and wall, certification and reporting to local authority

Work carried out with courtesy and efficiency within tight time schedule, as work was necessary to accommodate new broadband hardware as well as improve safety of existing arrangements. Clear explanations of work were given at all stages and questions welcomed. Charges very reasonable and billed as quoted. Alex also gave advice on other aspects of house circuitry without charge and responded speedily to all communications, including initial contact (following which he came round within a few hours). His younger colleague was also courteous and efficient. Site was left today. Quality contractors without a doubt and I would use them again without hesitation and recommend.

We were very happy with the work carried out by Power works. The whole process was very efficient and Alex and Owen were great to work with. We would recommend them without hesitation. They were keen to get our business. Quoted quickly and accurately, and came up with lots of good suggestions on how to complete the work. They were very quick and efficient on site and a pleasure to talk with. Great result all round.

Move one light in hall and fit new one over stairs

New light fitted tidily despite being in an awkward position above the stairs and where the old light was removed all holes etc were filled so that once painted there was no sign of anything having been there

Installing 4 new sockets in bedroom

The work was to upgrade poor existing wiring, and needed a lot of manual work, lifting floor and making good damaged wall. Alex worked to a very tight deadline, and completed the work tidily on time (6.5 hours), even re-assembling the bed. Professional and efficient.
