I would definitely recommend AEF Electrical to anyone. They carried out the work in a professional manner, on time, and UNDER estimate. The workmen were tidy, friendly, and even solved a tricky problem. I am extremely happy with their work.

The work was done within 48 hours of me calling despite it being days before Xmas. The electrician was very respectful of my flat…didn’t park his van in any of the neighbours private spaces as I’ve experienced before and wore covers over his shoes.
The bathroom fan was fitted within an hour and was done very professionally by Ruairidh.
Very happy.

We used AEF Electrical to remove a fuse box and replace it with a new consumer unit.

Jonny carried out the work, and he was very polite and mindful of us working from home, and the potential interruptions.

He communicated with us throughout the process, and gave us reassurance of the work carried out.

We will definitely use AEF Electrical again, and we would highly recommend them. The experience we had with them was very positive from booking the work in to the very end.

Dave and his AEF team are trustworthy, hard-working, meticulous, and professional. I am delighted with their work, and highly recommend.
AEF have done a number of jobs for me. Small: installing an electric hob, installing a central pendant light in an upper landing. Large and difficult jobs including: moving my electrical fuse boxes from one room to another (they did this 3 years ago, and it has been faultless); installing all new wiring in a conversion and extension; and returning to supply and fit the sockets/switches/lights/electric radiators.

Dave responded promptly to my enquiry, giving a realistic insight into the problem with no pressure to proceed. His quote was helpful and detailed. Jonny carried out the work, was friendly, efficient and managed to repair a cable with no damage to our walls or woodwork. I'm a very happy customer, would recommend AEF Electrical and will be using them in future.

I contacted AEF for some electrical fixes including a new pendant lamp fixing, smoke/heat detectors and lighting not working.
Really happy with the work, reasonable pricing clear from the quote and helpful responses to initial questions/quote.
The Electrician who carried out the work was really personable and would definitely use them again / recommend them to friends.

After moving into a new place, I had the wiring checked, and repair work done based on the check. Dave was absolutely fantastic - prompt, reliable, conscientious, and considerate. I never got the sense that he was trying to get me to agree to work that was unnecessary, and he was able to accommodate some last minute additional requests (like wiring an HDMI cable between rooms) with no fuss at all. If only all traders were as good as this!

Review Comments
We had a full rewire to our 1960s property with some additional works carried out to modernise the property.
From start to finish, the service from Dave and the team at AEF was excellent. We were a bit daunted as new homeowners finding a good electrician and we are so lucky that we found a great one!
Dave undertook a thorough inspection of the property and talked us through some options before providing us with a very clear and timeous quote.
Once accepted, Dave visited the property once more to finalise plans and talk us through the work schedule.
The work started on the day we were told it would and we were kept informed throughout.
The team were immaculate in their work but also in tidying up (even the coffee cups were washed!) and removing all the old materials.
The work was completed ahead of schedule and we are delighted with the finished results. We would have no hesitation to use AEF again and will do so for our next project. Thanks to Dave and the AEF team for a professional and reliable service.

Excellent service. Work consisted of replacing an ancient fusebox with an RCBO consumer unit, conducting an electrical test/inspection (EICR) and wiring in a new electric cooker. Dave provided a clear and fair quote and got the work booked in for us very quickly.

Ben arrived bang on time. Friendly and professional throughout his visit, he explained what he was doing and why. I felt very comfortable having him in the flat. He insisted on tidying up after the job and left the place spotless.

The old fusebox was a bit of a mess and was in a confined space so installation of the new consumer unit took a considerable amount of time. Despite this, the final invoice matched the original quote. This was really fair of AEF and highlights their professionalism. Thanks guys!

I'll definitely be using AEF for any future electrical work and won't hesitate to recommend them to friends and family.

Great work from Dave, Dave and the team! I had a number of items completed by AEF Electrical over 3 sessions including wiring up a new kitchen, fitting kitchen lighting, fitting smoke and heat alarm system, fitting a new consumer unit and moving plug sockets up wall from skirting boards.
Highly recommend the team, very professional - high quality work done efficiently and tidily, they were courteous and gave some great advice. A pleasure to deal with.

AEF were excellent on all 4 electrical jobs done on my flat, very clear in communications before, during and after their visits, and informative about regulations. I value this reliability as much as the high quality of their work.

Needed to get a few things done after moving into a new house including moving sockets out of the skirting boards, a general check of the electrics, and new fire alarms installed, so contacted AEF. Got a quick response to my email and then a quick visit to size up the job and they were able to fit the job in within a couple of weeks. From the first contact Dave was friendly and professional. the job took a couple of days and I had no worries leaving Dave with a set of keys while we went away to escape the disruption. The job was completed on time, they tidied up after themselves and overall we were really happy with the work they did.
In terms of cost the quote was similar to the other two I got.
I'd have no hesitation recommending AEF to anyone who needed some work done and would definitely use them again if I need any more in the future.

The work was done when they said they'd do it. It was completed when they said it would be. The standard of workmanship was slightly better than anticipated. They called when they weren't sure how I wanted something done and made decisions for me when I wasn't sure. Those decisions were the correct ones, in hindsight. They weren't the cheapest quote but they weren't far off. I chose them because it was clear from the outset that they were the most professional. They cleaned up after themselves. Very happy indeed.
