Finally, electrical works on-time and on-budget.

Maybe you have tried to get some electrical work done, only to be left with unreliable, shoddy results? Perhaps you hired an electrician only to find that they failed to deliver on their promises, leaving you with faulty installations or recurring issues.

You may have been quoted a price for a job, only for the cost to spiral out of control, becoming a financial headache. Or maybe you’ve even experienced electricians who don’t show up on time or when promised, leaving you to rearrange your busy schedule and adding unnecessary stress to your life. And look, I get it, it’s not fair.

The truth is, you’re not alone. It seems most homeowners are becoming victims of these issues when trying to get your electrical work done right the first time and on budget. That feeling of frustration, helplessness, and financial stress – a terrible place to be in.

Here’s what most don’t realise – bad electrical work isn’t just a nuisance, it is downright dangerous. Faulty wiring and substandard installations can lead to fires, electrical shocks, and other hazardous situations. And now with the possibility of engaging unqualified or uncertified electricians, the risks become even greater.

It seems most are left in a state of constant worry and uncertainty, wondering when the next problem will arise or if their home is even safe. Which just goes to show – you would be wise to do something different to get your electrical work done right the first time and on budget to stop the pain and frustration. Read on to see how we approach electrical services.

We have worked alongside Paul on a number of solar PV and battery storage installations, and they are brilliant to work with. They are consistently reliable, well-organised, and bring an impressive level of Fox inverter and battery knowledge to every project. What really sets them apart is their aftercare and problem-solving—if any technical issues or faults crop up, they deal with the customers excellently and stay until it’s fully sorted rather than walking away. Fantastic communication throughout. Highly recommend them for local solar and battery work!

PD Electricial organised one of their electricians to come out at very short notice on a Saturday to fix the lights in our holiday let. They were very efficient, explained the problem very clearly and fixed the issue. Would highly recommend!

Got PD electrical to fit a couple of video doorbells. Really happy with the work. They did a great job fitting the doorbells and kept me informed throughout the whole process, explaining everything clearly and providing all the information I needed - it was all a bit more complicated then it should have been due to the eccentricities of the house. Reliable, professional and would definitely recommend them.

Paul was prepared to a small job for customers in a remote area. Our fitted microwave needed replacing, but none of the firms, selling the model we wanted, offered an installment service. We live in a fairly remote area and it can be difficult to find tradesmen, especially electricians. I was therefore pleasantly surprised to be rung by Paul on the same day that I put the job in Check a trade. We agreed a very reasonable price for the job; the microwave was delivered on Monday and Paul fitted it on Monday afternoon. I would not hesitate to recommend him.

Fitted new electric sockets, aerial and removed old wall light fitting PD Electrical responded immediately to my call and visited me the next day to look at the work required. A quote came quickly and a date confirmed. The price quoted was very reasonable too. Communication, workmanship and tideness were first class and I would happily recommend them and use them again.
