Spoke to Paul beginning of April 2021. First date available Friday 30th. Turned up on time rechecking what was required a couple of days before. Did two of the easy jobs and said he needed to take advice on a fan issue in the kitchen. Phoned him two weeks later. He said he had not had a reply from his contact. Thereafter I have heard nothing. If you want the easy jobs done he’s your man. This is now 9th June.

BUSINESS RESPONSE: I was disappointed to receive your review as I don't think it properly reflects the situation. The "easy" jobs were the jobs you asked me to do and one of them was, in fact, rectifying a sub-standard job carried out by another electrician. With regards to the fan issue, as I explained to you at the time, due to the age of the fan (1960's) that I would need to find out from the supplier, what, if anything, was available to fix the issue. I duly phoned the suppliers but heard nothing back, which is not unusual at the moment as the majority of their staff are working from home and sourcing materials for items of this age isn't easy. As agreed, I said I would be in touch with you once I heard back from the supplier. So far, they have been unable to source anything suitable (although they are still looking) and therefore, I had no further update for you.

You mentioned that you had to wait 4 weeks for me to be available. Like other reputable trades people, I am extremely busy and having to wait is common place. I work to the same timescales and standards regardless of the size/type of job as is evidenced by my other reviews.

Replace Electrical Bonding for gas pipe; Remove old unused coin meter and reconnect fuse box; Replace transformer; Replace light switch.
Very good all round service. Arrived on time. Responded quickly to emails. Estimate was clear and at a fair price.
Very respectful of property and not only tidied after himself, but replaced flooring and other items that had been moved for access.
Highly Recommended

Paul carried out an initial EICR inspection . This was followed up a short time later with remedial works at the property and issuing the updated certificate.

I found him reliable, professional and would definitely use East West ELectrical for any future electrical works.

East West Electrical recently did some external work for us, fixing an external socket and putting sockets into a summerhouse. Paul was easy to communicate with, friendly and efficient. We’re delighted with the standard of work provided, would definitely use East West Electrical again and would recommend to others.

Paul replaced old, inefficient storage heaters. He did the work quickly and arranged for the old heaters and bricks to be taken away. He was extremely patient in answering all my questions. My new heaters provide a level of comfort I haven’t experienced for years.

Paul recently fitted 2 outdoor power sockets for me. He replied promptly to my initial enquiry, arrived when he said he would and explained where he could fit the power points so that they were accessible and could be fitted with minimal drilling inside the house.
The job was completed to a very high standard and Paul tidied and hoovered leaving no trace of any mess. He also showed me how to access the sockets and ensure they were kept water tight.
I’ve already recommended Paul to a friend and will definitely use him again in the future.

(Picture of outdoor socket is largely obscured by the dog but shows you the great workmanship of how it’s been fitted)

I have had loads of work done over the years - in my own home and in rental flats by this trader. Paul is very efficient and very knowledgeable about the statutory requirements for rental property. I absolutely recommend him.

We have used East West Electrical a few times over the past few years. Each time Paul has done a really good job, he is reliable and professional with a high standard of work. I've recommended him many times to other people, and have no hesitation to recommend him on this site too.

Thank you to Paul and the team for replacing and fitting bathroom lighting and an extractor fan. The job was done really smoothly and we're very happy with the results. Paul was on-time on each visit, worked cleanly, respected COVID-19 procedures and was considerate given that we were also working from home. We would happily recommend Paul and the team.
