Excellent workmanship by Shab and his son. They are efficient, tidy, skilled electricians. They came on time, reliable, trustworthy and did an excellent job. Nothing was too much trouble. they fitted down lights, spotlights, sockets, alarm, security lights, relocated equipment for a new kitchen. and fitted a new consumer unit! All work was carried out speedily and they even cleared up after themselves! Would definitely recommend Shab and his son if you are looking for trustworthy electricians who charge a fair price. Excellent.

10thJul.20 - Shab and his son came round after I drilled into a live wire, precisely an hour after I called and when he said he would be here. They quickly got to work, chiselled into the plaster to access and join the wire; swiftly and tidily. They plastered the damage and all was promptly resolved; advising to check on the repaired joint in 5 years time. I took the opportunity to have a socket box repaired at the same time.
All work was completed within the hour, sockets and electricity supply to downstairs sockets restored, too. Thank you very much. I will save your number and get back to your for more work I need addressing around the house very soon!

Efficient and reliable service. He came right on time at such short notice which I was very pleased with. The electrician had cleaned up after the wall light fixings were done which saved me the job and was done at a reasonable price! Would definitely use again in the future and recommend to everyone.

Fantastic service from the guys at UC electrical. After a cowboy job from a previous electrician fitting a plug socket that needed to be levelled and relocated ASAP I contacted these guys. They offered a professional service from the start, came out within an hour and managed to get the job done properly, to a high standard and reasonable price. Also gave some good advice. The aftercare service is good too. Got a call from Shab just as the electrician was finishing up to make sure I was happy with the workmanship. All in all will definitely be using them again.

We have used UC Electrical for many year and have always been happy with their rapid response, expertise and efficiency. So they were the natural choice when we decided to have our house rewired. Nevertheless we did shop around and found UC Electrical to be competitive in price and, as ever, quick to respond. They did an excellent job with as little disruption as possible considering the size of the task.
As our house is occupied, a lot of furniture needed to be moved, carpets taken up and an attic packed with "stuff" negotiated but they managed it all and were done in just over two weeks. I have no hesitation in giving them a 5-star recommendation.
