I contacted Martin Kaine electrical for an EV charger install quote, within a couple of days Ian from the company, had been to the house for a survey and to confirm the extra work needed (extra work won’t always be needed, it depends on the age of your house and other things). The work was carried out just a few days later to a very high standard which was supply and fit of a Hypervolt Home Pro 3. Can happily recommend this company, thanks. Update May 2026: I couldn’t work out how to leave a second five star review!! But since the EV work, Martin Kaine Electrical has become my go to company for any and all domestic electric works. From small jobs like fitting a new cooker and lighting to the most recent job, which was supplying electric to our new Garden Room. This included supply and fitment of cable and installation of a security camera and internal and external sockets. A very competitive price and excellent work. The company always responds to requests for a quote extremely quickly and I have found that for domestic jobs, most can be carried out within 7-10 days of accepting the quote, often quicker. Thanks again really pleased with the latest work.

It is not very often that I will pick a supplier at random, and hope for the best. It is not very often that you set a standard you hope a supplier will deliver, and then receive a service far beyond you r meagre hopes. But that is exactly what happened when I engaged the services of Martin Kaine Electrical. During my dealings with Martin, he set a new standard for customer service, support and understanding. Lt me explain: Due to an insurance repair to my house, I was having to move to long term temporary accommodation. I am an EV owner, and I needed to be able to charge at my temporary accommodation. The landlord would only give his agreement if he sighted certain documentation first. This included certificates of compliance, safety case, and risk assessment as a minimum. I spoke to Martin about this, and the necessary paperwork was quickly supplied. Martin then suggested that when I met the landlord to collect the keys, that he was prepared to attend to answer any questions there may be. This happened, and after the conversation the landlord had agreed in principle that the installation could proceed. At the same time, he agreed a removal policy at the end that was acceptable to all. Martin will be removing the charger when I move back to my home and installing it there. Within just a couple of days, the charger was installed and functional. I also asked Martin his advice on which charger to use. He recommended my first choice. His price for the total job was very competitive. I can also confirm that the installation was carried out with the utmost professionalism. And he was meticulous about ensuring that the site was spotlessly clean upon completion. Based on my experience, I would not hesitate at all to give the highest recommendation to Martin Kaine Electrical.

Martin was quick, responsive, quote provided for work. Sent one of his guys (Steve I believe) who arrived bang on time the next day. Carried out the job to a high standard and was very professional and polite. Would highly recommended this firm. *had more work done from this firm today, Ian and a younger man. Could not fault them, great work, good attention to detail,cleaned up after themselves. Would highly recommend this firm***

Looking at the fabulous reviews, I sent a list of electrical items to Martin Kaine to be checked and install. As a landlady I need to be able to trust the work being done. They got on with the job without me being there and were quick and efficient leaving the flat immaculate. It’s not often I can leave a glowing review, but this time I can!
