Our old fusebox needed replacing and bringing up to modern standards as we had new rooms added and growing needs in the household. We also wanted a way to completely shut down non-essential electrical circuits overnight, saving energy and reducing the amount of electrical interference as we sleep. Paul and the PD Electrical team listened carefully and provided a great solution – a “kill switch” that could give a late-night closedown, whilst keeping essential circuits separated and active overnight.

From the very first call with Paul at PD Electrical right through to the job being finished, the service was excellent. He was friendly, clear, and took the time to explain everything in detail so I fully understood what was needed. No question was too much trouble, and he gave straightforward, confident answers every step of the way. The work itself was carried out with great care and professionalism, and he highlighted a few potential issues that may need attention in the future, even providing a prompt and fair quote for those.
Paul’s knowledge and expertise really stood out, which gave me complete confidence in the work being done. My main problem was the fuse box constantly tripping and cutting power to several circuits at once. Paul recommended upgrading to a modern RCBO consumer unit, which has been the perfect solution — now each circuit is individually protected. This has made a huge difference, especially as I work from home and can’t afford interruptions to my computer equipment.
The new setup gives me real peace of mind knowing everything is up to date, safe, and reliable. I hadn’t even heard of an RCBO before, but now I wouldn’t want to be without one. I’d happily use PD Electrical again and highly recommend Paul for anyone needing a trustworthy, knowledgeable electrician.

I had issues with my fuse-box tripping and was losing about 8 circuits every time, I got Paul round and he advised on a new RCBO consumer unit, which turned out to be the perfect solutions as we now have individual circuit protection. I work from home on the computer a lot and to been having power interruption is just no good for my business. I now have peace of mind knowing its all upgrading, updated and protected. I didn't have a clue what an RCBO was but I now know its a MUST have.

After waiting six weeks for an engineer to turn up from Ohme or Octopus to fit an EV Charger, I decided to try a local company.
Paul came on the afternoon of my call , and provided me with an estimate for installing a EV Charger and upgrading my Electric fuse box. Four days later Charlie & Ryan attended and completed both jobs. The quality of their work was first class, and at a better price than my previous estimates!
An excellent company I strongly recommend!

The PD Electric guys arrived promptly and did an excellent job. They were very careful in protecting our new countertop and handled our huge dome lights the same way. They efficiently converted the lights to LED and reinstalled with precision and care. They also advised us with patience and kindness on other jobs we are planning. Highly recommend PD Electric.

We were much relieved when we had a complete power failure and on sending an SOS to Paul, Ken appeared on our doorstep in no time. He sorted our problem out so quickly and efficiently - he noticed other electrical shortcomings and was charming company. Altogether a pleasant experience and at a good price. I strongly recommend dependable P D Electrical.

Paul is an extremely reliable electrician who has done a lot of different electrical work for us at home both interior and exterior. The team of guys he has working for him are equally as good. They work efficiently and importantly to me, are tidy and always respectful of our home. I cannot recommend Paul Dunn Electric more highly.

I have used Paul a few times and also recommended him to others. I have always found his service excellent and will definitely be using again. On this occasion I wanted my meter to be moved to a more appropriate place. Paul arranged an appointment quickly with me to discuss the work and sent through the quote stating what had been discussed. The work was planned in swiftly and the engineer was on time, friendly and efficient. The engineer carried out all necessary work to a high standard and left the area clean and tidy. The documentation required for the work was sent promptly. Thank you so much for the service provided.

I can't praise Paul Dunn and his team highly enough. We needed a lot of work done to comply with new electrical regulations. Paul came to assess the job the day after we enquired, sent a quote the day after that and started the work within a week.
Very different from a previous experience with an electrician - long wait to get the job done and not done efficiently.
Paul and his team did everything perfectly. We will use him in future for any electrical jobs.

I have used Paul and his team twice now and couldn’t recommend them enough! They go above and beyond at all times and nothing is too much. Their customer service is impeccable and you feel they really value your custom. It’s very rare to find such amazing service. I wouldn’t go anywhere else and recommend to everyone I know! Thank you PD team 🙂

Outstanding service following a recommendation. Paul moved my ev charger from my address to my new address. He gave me confirmed date and times and stuck to them. His communication was excellent. Furthermore, having just moved we needed new light fittings and Paul kindly carried out the work the same day instead of leaving us without the new fittings.
I would without reservation highly recommended him.

Paul and Charlie from PC Electrical (Ilfracombe) have just fitted a battery storage unit to connect to our previously fitted solar panels. Paul has been excellent throughout the job assessment, quote and completion of the supply and fitting. Paul's communication skills are exceptional and he backs this up with skilled and very tidy work at exactly the time & day he promises, together with patient & reliable availability after the fitting, leaving us confident of dependable service in the future. We would certainly recommend this business.
Review edit January 2025- having had occasion to rely on Paul's after sales services I agree with his claims for customer care and reliability, Paul can be totally trusted to deliver as promised.

What a wonderful experience having an electrician with a"nothing is too much trouble" attitude. Paul came on time completed the job even though delays forced him to return a number times ( not his fault). Polite, tidy would recommend him without questions.

After loosing power at 11pm on Saturday evening Paul of PD electrical was one of the only electricians to answer my call and attended within the hour, found the fault and got my plugs and lights back on that night. He then returned Monday morning as agreed to replace the faulty cable that had caused the original problem. Reasonably priced, very friendly and most importantly very reliable. Would definitely recommend.

The biggest problem in North Devon is finding reliable tradespeople. Paul Dunn of PD Electrical does exactly what he says he’s going to do. Arrives on time, quotes for the job (no estimate or day rate nonsense), then sends a professional colleague to do the job to a very high standard. This is what I said to Paul…..’We’re delighted we are with what Ken has done for us. He's thorough, professional, extremely knowledgeable and tidy plus he's spends time explaining what he's done and how he's done it. He's very conscientious and wants to get the job done 100% correctly. On top of all that he's a total gentleman and a credit to your reputation. Thank you again. Greg.’

Paul came to our house yesterday and was great from the start. Turned up on time, dust sheets down, protective plastic down and a job successfully completed with all holes patched and primed like new. Best electrician we’ve ever had to the house, highly recommended.

Paul has been our electrician since 2017. He responds quickly whenever we need help with large or small jobs and maintenance like today. PD Electrical have also assisted us down the years with a complete house renovation and rewire, overcoming challenges along the way. Furthermore, Paul also worked hard to provide my elderly parents with a wet room and other adaptations for their home. He and his team are always friendly, competent and reliable, which is very much appreciated. Many thanks again Paul.

My previous experiences of getting the service I needed had been difficult and took a long time to get responses. Paul responded immediately and got the work done in record time. It was a refreshing change to deal with such a friendly and efficient company. I was really happy with the end result and have no hesitation in recommending PD Electrical to anyone needing a professional service that is fast and efficient.

Having been let down by other electricians who either didn't respond or were apparently too busy, I was very impressed with Paul's responses to requests for quotes. He isn't cheap but you definitely get what you pay for. He's installed a cooker hood, a replacement bathroom extractor fan and redirected its exit to a more efficient location, separated a light and extractor fan in an en suite, and installed a replacement electric doorbell. He leaves everything clean and tidy. I'm really pleased with Paul's standard of work.

I chose PD Electrical purely on the strength of their Google Reviews. I have had various electricians over the years, but this time wanted someone with stellar reputation. Paul called round for a chat and to assess the requirement. It was only a few switches and lights, but he took time to document what was needed and also ask a few other questions to help him understand the setup in my home. I then received a quote for the work, which was reasonable and accompanied by a very thorough, helpful guides to how PD work and key things I should know. Paul had also left a book of client testimonials which was a very nice touch, something I had never seen before.
Charlie from PD arrived on time to carry out the work, he was polite, cheerful and a pleasure to have in the house (this has not always been the case with previous contractors!) Everything was completed to agreed spec and care was taken throughout not to leave any mess or cause disruption. I chatted with Paul about our fusebox and some other requirements and he gave me considered, helpful responses which encouraged me to return in future for additional works.
My day job involves encouraging my clients to "go the extra mile" for their customers and it was great to see this in action with Paul. Highly recommended, well done!
