I would highly recommend AEF Electrical. Johnny and Alan installed a number of extra power points for me along with a new light (which another electrician told me wasn't possible). They did a great job and were very clean and tidy as well as being lovely and friendly. The communication from Dave was fast and easy and they fitted my job in quickly. Overall they were excellent and I would definitely use them again.

AEF did a great job, putting in a new Consumer Unit, an overall electrical safety check, moving sockets from skirting boards to the wall and installing a new bathroom fan- the quote was very reasonable and the work carried out by Jonny was really well done and quick. He was knowledgable and helpful with all our Qs and also cleared up after the work was done.
Dave managed to book us in really quickly and we would definitely use AEF again for any of our electrical jobs. Thanks AEF!

The contractor replaced an ancient electricity box and rewired a section of the house. They were knowledgeable, organized, well-priced and generally great to work with. Would highly recommend AEF electrical.

AEF did a complete rewire of our new house. Dave Norman was extremely helpful from my initial enquiry, before we even had our offer accepted, to completion in time for us to move in. They were professional and proactive and he and his team worked with us to get the work done in a very tight timescale for which we are very grateful.

Cannot be faulted. Rewired whole house . At the time of scoping the job, they made several useful suggestions of improvements that we had not thought of. Work was done very professionally and with no fuss about making minor alterations to the spec.

Would definitely use them again.

Bathroom fan fitted. Got quotes from three people. AEF were slightly cheaper but what swung our decision to use them was customer service, they gave more info initially about the make of fan they chose, and also more detail when requested by us.

On the day they were very prompt, friendly and helpful.

Will use again for sure, since the electricians we have used for many years sadly closed in 2023.

Had AEF check the electrical installation after purchasing a new flat and then doing a bit of remedial work and installing a new oven and connecting the gas hob. Also had them back to change a ceiling light. Very reliable and polite each time and work done to a high standard. They are now my go-to electricians and I would highly recommend them.

AEF are the company we've used for any electrical job in our home - they've helped us replace and remove old storage heaters, as well as securing our fuse box safely. Very reliable and would recommend to anyone.

We have just used AEF for a full rewire of our home and from the outset they have been superb, I cannot think of a single flaw or complaint. They responded quickly and helped through the planning process giving suggestions on how best to locate points and switches etc resulting in a competitively priced quote. They managed to fit us in while we were away on holiday and really pulled out all the stops to get the work completed in that time. All the electricians were polite, very hard working, clean and tidy with all work to a high standard. AEF should be everyone's first choice for electrical work.

Installed new induction hob and cabling, new oven, and ceiling lights in my tenement flat. Carried out a general safety check and installed a new consumer unit. The work was excellent. Everybody involved was very professional and helpful. They worked out the best solutions for me and gave good advice. I highly recommend AEF Electrical.

I was given a sound estimate, the electrician kept me informed about when he would come, and came soon after I called. He immediately identified the problem with an electric shower and fixed it, he fitted a fire alarm, and gave good advice on fixing an extractor fan that couldn’t be fixed immediately. It was all done efficiently and at a price that was reasonable and accorded with the initial estimate. A really good service.

AEF Electrical Ltd fitted new bathroom lights for me, they offered to repair/replace the existing lights but suggested I might prefer new LED's and explained the benefits of making this choice. I went with the LED's and I have made the right decision as they are fantastic. The job was done very quickly and to a fantastic standard. I am very happy with the result.

Dave and his team had to complete two communal stair upgrades. The first - change the stair lights to LED and the second, replace old timer and complete rewiring to remove older cloth wiring.

Existing conduit was used therefore no extra drilling and new pipe work needed.

Overall: turned up on time. Got on with the job. No chitchat delaying the job.
Provided instructions on timer change. Tidied up behind them, which included sweeping.

Highly recommend this team if you want a good job done.

Two new consumer units were fitted and and a new induction hob fitted and connected with a new cable back to a consumer unit. The work was efficiently and tidily carried out.
The company was flexible and helpful. A good experience
