    Electrician

    Great to work with

    James did a great job advising and installing a pv and battery system for our house- aftercare has also been great in explains how to use it all. PV industry feels like the Wild West but James is anything but.

    Recommended - helpful and flexible

    James recently installed a solar, battery and bypass arrangement for our house. He was outstanding to work with - helpful in helping me work out the best system to work with, flexible in how he worked and provided good updates. Would definitely recommend.

    Electrician

    Posted 28 June 2025

    New undercounter lights, new spotlights and electrical testing

    Really thorough work, so clean and tidy. Absolute gentleman of a contractor, very polite and a great communicator. Turned up to quote the work when he said he would, and returned as scheduled to carry out the job. Couldn’t have asked for a more reliable electrician.

    Solar Battery Storage

    Posted 30 January 2025

    Install of solar, battery and inverter

    James was very helpful throughout the process from first quote to completing the install and even with support after. James did the whole install by himself (other than the scaffolding) which means no sub contracted work. From the initial meeting James gave advice on what would work best but was not pushy on anything. Once specification was confirmed a date was set and stuck to. Work was carried out to a high standard and we were consulted on any changes and decision throughout. I would recommend James to anyone, and have kept his details for any future electrician needs I have.

    Solar Battery Storage

    Posted 11 December 2024

    Battery Solar Storage + EV charger

    I had previously had an extremely expensive quote by a national company, I started looking for a local company and found Givenergy approved company South Coast Electrical, I asked them for a quote and James arrived to survey the job and give a quote, which was very competitive, and explain what would need to be done. The work was carried out professionally and explained what was done. I was extremely pleased any requested and additional job fitting an EV charger, once again a very high standard of work and technical knowledge. I would recommend South Coast Electrical 100%.
