Marks Electrical Services Cambridge is a father-and-son electrical firm that reviewers consistently praise for friendly, tidy and well-explained work. Many customers report prompt attendance, clear communication and neat results, including efforts to make good after the job. Reviewers regularly describe installation work such as fuse boards, garden and outdoor lighting, extractor fans, sockets, security products and full rewires. Dean is named often for helpful advice by phone or on site, and Matthew is repeatedly named for carrying out jobs carefully and tidily. One reviewer reported a separate problem buying a dishwasher through Amazon, saying the company was reluctant to provide a proof-of-purchase invoice, which they found suspicious.
Dean and son did a great job. On time and went out of their way to do a good job whilst also making wiring look neat. Also did a good tidy up after. They did work for me many years ago as well. That was also very professionally done.
We recently contacted Marks Electrical for a mixture of domestic installations including outdoor and garage lighting, Ring cameras and doorbell, and bathroom extractor fans. Dean was clear and helpful in his communication, from detailing the work to generating the quote and promptly booking us in. Matthew arrived when scheduled and completed everything to a fantastic standard, clearly taking pride in his work. We were very happy with everything installed, and both Dean and Matthew were a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for honest and quality electrical work in Cambridgeshire!
Ceiling fan was replaced and a faulty doorbell was diagnosed. Great work from Matthew - two thumbs up!
We’ve had Dean’s and Matt’s help over the years - they have always done a great job and they’re always who we call. Whether it be a new electric car charger, odd jobs or changes all our light switches they’ve done it!! We couldn’t recommend them more highly.
Wow ! Had a problem (or so I thought)with my fuse board , contacted Marks Electrical Services for advice,they gave me some very detailed advice over the phone,problem solved😊I thank you for your time and advice,have made a note of the website and wouldn’t hesitate in recommending this company 👍👍👍
Our gorund floor lights and sockets tripped out and Dean responded quickly and sorted the problem. Very courteous service and really good at explaining everything. Very much appreciated!
Dean did a great job of chasing a wire into our wall. From the moment we reached out to request a quote for the works through to the completed job, Dean and Mark were incredibly professional and efficient. 100% would recommend!
Great service from Dean. Had an issue with exposed wiring, which was dealth with quickly, safely and efficiently. Top notch! Thanks again!
Needed new plug socket for new fridge on hottest day of year. Cheery, ultra efficient Matthew turned up promptly, did the job in record time, left both of us cool as cucumbers. Thanks a million. Geraldine, Eden St Cambridge
Prompt, effective work with a smile. Explains clearly what can and can’t be done.
Found Marks Electrical Services on a Google search and feel very fortunate to have done so. Needed an electrician for some re wiring in the bathroom and kitchen in order to install an extractor fan, a water pump and a new hob. Also some new light fittings. It is a father and son firm and they are very pleasant to deal with and more importantly genuine and honest individuals. They worked alongside our other contractors and everyone spoke very highly of them. Would definitely highly recommend this firm for any electrical works. They priced the works fairly (actually cheaper than I expected although I obviously didn’t complain about that lol). In all seriousness a great firm, excellent at what they do and without any hesitation would recommend them to anyone who needs an electrician within Cambridgeshire.
Truly excellent service. Dean got me booked in quickly, then Matthew did a thorough and professional job. Very friendly and knowledgeable man, gave me practical advice about future upgrades without any pressure to do this now. Even filled the holes in the walls and swept up - super impressed. Will definitely be using them again and recommending to friends.
Great service by Dean and Mat, very professional and an excellent job completed to replace our consumer unit .
Rang Dean and on the phone he provided a solution and ordered the parts immediately. They arrived a couple days later at which point he came and installed them. He also helped fix a couple other issues and popped by at late notice to fix something else. In summary I can’t fault Dean. Efficient and effective and he is a genuine lovely guy too. Look no further if you need electrical work.
Dean was extremely helpful and efficient in all stages of the project from quote to installation. Matthew turned up exactly as arranged to fit a new consumer unit and tidy up some cabling in preparation for a smart meter to be installed. It was a pleasure to have him carry out the work thanks to his friendly helpful and efficient manner. We would wholeheartedly recommend Marks Electrical and will certainly use them again.
Great service, highly recommended. Came on same day got everything done we needed at a good price.
Excellent and punctual service!
Prompt, friendly and helpful responses to queries and providing quotes. All works completed efficiently and all looks great. Would recommend with regards to quality of work and cost. Thanks for doing such a good job.
Great service from Mark installing LED downlight's for our bathroom and kitchen - great communications and prompt and efficient service. Will be using again and highly recommend.
I had som bathroom lights replaced. The quote are through quickly, it was a fair price and once I accepted the work was also scheduled in quickly. Dean turned up when he said he would (which quite a lot of trades don’t seem to bother doing any more) and completed the job efficiently and gave me a useful overview of the working of my fuse box.
Quick and efficient service. Very kind and professional customer service. We hardly recommend them.
I bought a Dishwasher from this company via Amazon. Product seems fine but they are very reluctant to provide proof of purchase ie. an invoice. The item was for a house we are selling and the client wants a receipt to validate the warrenty. With most companies on Amazon an invoice is provided as a matter of course, but not with Marks? Very suspicious I would suggest.
I have used Marks several times over the last 10 years both personally and for my business. Both Dean and Matthew are always helpful and carry out work to a very high standard. Thoroughly recommend!
Outstanding workmanship, really polite, very trustworthy. I have used them for numerous jobs and would continue to do so in the future. Replaced some sockets and installed a new one as well as fixing light fitting in a bedroom. Was able to fit us in relatively quickly so we could get decoration completed. Highly recommend.
Matthew arrived promptly, diagnosed a burnt-out ventilation fan, then sourced and fitted a suitable replacement. Job done as required.
Marks Electrical Services have done a number of electrical jobs for us over the last 6 months. The work has been excellent and they’ve very easy to get hold of and reply quickly to messages and emails. I would definitely recommend them.
A fast, friendly, efficient and high quality service. We are very pleased with the work completed.
I would recommend this company. The two jobs done by this company were both completed efficiently and to a high standard and at competitive prices.
Really happy with our new EV Charger. Marks Electrical Service were great from start to finish, advising with how to upgrade our mains Amp, what EV charger to buy and installing it all with a new consumer board. I couldn’t be more impressed with the service.
Dean fixed our broken plugs at a decent price and didn't keep us waiting too long. He'll be my go-to electrician in the future.
Dean and Matthew were fantastic. Very informative and punctual. Work done to a high standard and clean and tidy. Pleasure doing business would highly recommend.
Absolutely brilliant job. Completely transformed our garden and delivered exactly what we wanted. Also both father and son are delightful. If it’s at all important to you to use family businesses, use this one!
Great experience with Marks Electrical Services. Job was to install an external socket - work done promptly and to a high standard. Also v much appreciated the flexibility on arranging an appropriate time to carry out the work. Many thanks.
Excellent work by Dean to fix a faulty bathroom storage heater. Not only did he get it working again quickly, but also demonstrated good problem-solving skills and expertise. He also offered advice on other, potentially more energy efficient, options to consider going forward. Appreciate Dean sharing his knowledge and experience. A very satisfied customer and would recommend Marks Electrical Services Cambridge. Thanks again.
Dean and Matthew did an outstanding job with our electrical work. Their quality of work was excellent, and they were efficient and highly professional. Communication was clear and prompt throughout, and they were flexible in scheduling to accommodate our needs. They replaced our consumer unit, and installed new plug outlets and cabling and lighting for our home office. Everything was completed to a high standard, and they were courteous and tidy throughout. We would certainly recommend them and intend to ask them to complete more jobs for us soon.
Dean did a great job on our outdoor lighting and doorbell renovation, and I couldn't be more impressed with the service. They were incredibly responsive, ensuring clear and prompt communication throughout the project. The work was thorough, and Dean was very solution-focused, addressing every challenge with professionalism and expertise. We are very happy with the high-quality results and the high level of professionalism. I would highly recommend Marks Electrical Services to anyone looking for reliable and high quality electrical services. Thanks Dean!
Would highly recommend Marks Electrical. Thank you to Dean and Matthew, who have been super helpful, reliable and conscientious in the work that they have done for us over the past few weeks. Appreciate that they put a lot of thought and consideration into what would work best for us day-to-day.
Matthew from Marks Electrical came to fit two lights at my house, one of which needed fitting from the floor above. He was efficient and tidy - even helped move furniture around to access the under-floor space and carpet put back down just as found. Also very friendly! Thank you Matthew!
An excellent, prompt service which quickly and neatly resolved the issue. Thanks.
Top service - came out at short notice, fixed the issue and was very friendly and knowledgeable.
Very happy with Dean's and Matthew's work in our house. During his visit, Dean had great ideas and advice on how to sort out bits and pieces, they completed the work quickly and efficiently checking all electrical at home and left the house in perfect condition. Highly recommend, great service for a fair price.
Dean was great -- showed up on time, made it easy and was super helpful. I will use them again. Tidy, arrived on time, looks fantastic. Pam
Matt has done exceptionally efficient, neat work. I could not recommend more highly.
Dean and his son came to fit a new light and extractor fan in our bathroom, they did a great job - Dean was fantastic at explaining all the options and different trade-offs leading to a great outcome
I had a new fuse board fitted. The work was very thorough, and the customer service excellent.
Excellent service. Would always recommend John Wilson. Gilbert Road
Very friendly and efficient service for changing my bathroom switch.
To replace shower extractor fan and replace old florescence bulb in the garage to a LED bulb. As ever Marks Electrical Services did a cracking job. Thoroughly recommended.
Matthew did a fantastic job installing some Ring security products and extractor fans. Everything was carefully considered, and the job was done very neatly. Would highly recommend.
Dean and Matthew did quite a range of electrical jobs for me including putting in new sockets where there were none, new extractor fans in bathrooms and new light fittings a cupboard and in the loft. Work was done to a high standard. Very happy, thanks!
First class service, found & repaired a fault that had not been found for decades will now be our first call going forward . R Bell
Wonderful job on my kitchen lights, could not be happier. Dean even fixed my poorly fitted fume hood duct while installing my lights. Highly recommend.
Prompt response and excellent standards. Remove a light and fit a replacement pendant
Dean has helped me change the heaters in my flat - he was very professional, efficient and considerate. He has also been generous with his advice for home improvements - which I really appreciated as a first time home-owner. I would definitely recommend him to anyone I know. :)
Dean came out to view the job and provided a detailed quote quickly. The work was completed quickly and efficiently with no mess. Definitely recommend Mark's Electrical Services
Outside light fitted quickly and other outside electrics made safe. Very pleased with the work and attitude.
Highly recommend this company's electrical service. Communication was excellent, Workmanship and Knowledge from both fitters was first class. Polite and professional and Priced spot on. Carried out electrical install for hotub, separate outside 13amp sockets , rounting , CB and earthing for me. They went the extra mile to complete the task. They will be my go to company for any further electrical requirements. 5 star 🌟 🌟🌟🌟🌟.
Thank you Dean and Matthew for the fantastic job done installing our kitchen cooker hood and bathroom extractor fan. The job was done neatly and efficiently and I appreciate the friendly and helpful way you carried out the work - attention to detail and small fixes too where needed. Highly recommended!
Matthew turned up on time, and was professional, friendly and completed the job and went the extra mile to help me. Thank you Matthew.
Dean was able to estimate from photos for installing an outside power socket for Heat source pump quicker than other electricians fitting me in between jobs at a fair rate in pricing. And with Matthew in tow was able to do work his magic in the most difficult of restricted spaces, so Marks Electricals can cope with any jobs that come there way. First rate job done, as a Painter & Decorator myself I wont hesitate on recommending to my customers.
We had a complete rewire carried out, at our recently purchased home which needed a total refurb this took approaching 9 months to resemble completion. Dean and Mat were on hand when we needed them at critical stages of the project otherwise the process would have taken considerably longer. Thanks guys!
Great, fast service couldn't ask for better.
I have used this company on several occasions and have always experienced an excellent, prompt service. Dean has given me helpful advice and solved problems. I would highly recommend Marks Electrical Services.
Matthew came to replace a broken fluorescent tube fitting with an LED one and a faulty dimmer switch. Both are now working properly-- It is a pleasure each time the bathroom lights go on and very good to be able to see properly what we are cooking! He also wired in an extra double socket. He came on time as arranged and competently and cheerfully tackled the jobs. Moreover a very pleasant and friendly person. Will certainly call on Marks Electrical when we next need electrical work doing.
Well pleased with quick service and repair following two circuits tripped in garage after water leak Chris Turner Impington
Prompt and friendly service. Great quality work.
Efficient, punctual and the works done nicely with expected. Thanks Dean!
I accidentally left a bad review for this Marks, instead of the appliance shop. Sorry for the confusion. It's pretty messed up that this Marks Electrical cares more about my plight than the Marks Electrical I spent hundreds of pounds with. At least now I know who to hire to install my oven (if they ever get it to work)
The service provided by Marks Electrical Services was excellent. The work was carried out extremely efficiently and carefully with consultation and consideration throughout. I am really grateful and thoroughly recommend this business
Brilliant service. Reliable and professional. Our go-to electrician. Highly recommended.
Excellent service and value
Dean was so nice. Came really quickly and sorted out our fuseboard - even the week before Christmas
Very efficient quick polite would recommend him to others
Installed x2 bathroom fans and wiring. On time, fast working, good at communicating if things needed doing differently (and why).
Great service as always Faulty porch light promptly repaired
Dean came promptly to replace a wall mounted thermostat with a wireless one, but discovered after taking our old one off that wireless receivers are not compatible with the system installed in our house at the moment, without undertaking a much larger system replacement job. He gave us some good advice on how to proceed next to achieve our heating-related goals and since he was unable to complete the job, he didn't charge us.
Excellent service. My Nest smart thermostat was broken so we were without heating. I wanted it replaced with a non smart version. Dean did this explaining everything and showing me how to work the control unit. He also helpfully repaired the fitting of my kitchen lights and suggested and supplied new bulbs. I am more than happy with the work. I now have a warm home and a kitchen that seems much larger now it has the right lighting. Fantastic value for money. I have no hesitation in recommending the firm.
I recently used Marks Electrical for the second time and they were reliable and professional as before. Dean and Matthew were flexible when the schedule of work changed and were prompt, communicated clearly and left my house clean and tidy. Fantastic job - very pleased.
A prompt response. Replaced our fitting and gave us some good advice. Second time we have used them and will use again.
Dean came within an hour of our call and fixed the problem very quickly & to a high standard. Really professional and helpful - we strongly recommend Marks Electrical.
Super helpful and up front about what we would need to do to fix our problem, and accommodated our wishes without any fuss. Would definitely recommend.
We can highly recommend Dean having used his electrical services for over 15 years. He is extremely reliable and efficient.
Dean and Mathew did a full rewire in our newly purchased house, including a new consumer unit and repositioned almost all of the sockets throughout every room. The electrics had probably not been updated since the 70's. They have done an excellent job. Pricing was very clear and fair Many thanks for a great job in a tight deadline!
Dean and his son Matthew arrived promptly as planned. Dean went through with me all the jobs planned. They had already provided the ground cable to go under a paved area. That was connected to a new shed and the house. They worked hard and completed all the various smaller jobs very efficiently and tidily. When they had gone one would have hardly noticed they had been here except that everything worked perfectly. Excellent value. John
Excellent, would recommend.
A very thorough job, including certification. Highly recommend
Very happy with Marks Electrical Services. We called under short notice for an outdoor alarm installation as well as electrical socket repair and they were very responsive and accommodating. Would definitely use their services again.
Dean contacted us immediately he returned from holiday and arranged for capable son Matthew to call later that day. He reassured us that our WiFi thermostat was working properly despite the lack of signal light after thoroughly checking the electrics. It was worth the call out charge to know the heating would come on. A good, reliable and friendly service.
We sought a challenging job to install emergency lighting in our 1960s flats that required pulling new cables through old conduits - the work was done very well
Highly recommended - efficient, friendly professional service
Great service - Mark installed a new circuit for my immersion to hook up to the solar, and was completely unphased (did you see what I did there?) by the baffling geography of the house and had it sorted out in no time.
I had two quite complicated ceiling lights to be fitted and they did a fantastic job. So careful and through checking everything was safe, secure and looked right - and they cleaned up afterwards. Excellent service, I highly recommend.
Always an excellent job. Cheerful, efficient, trustworthy, tidy. They are great, would never use anyone else
Upgraded consumer unit in 4 bed house and installed security lighting. Very pleased with the work. Dean was very helpful and explained everything that he did. Both him and his son worked very hard to complete the work. Would recommend!
Dean came to fix an LED light strip in our kitchen. He was very professional and we were grateful for him sourcing some tricky parts.
Dean and Matthew Marks came back to fit our Ring security system. They did an excellent job - we have used their services for many years and highly recommend them for any electrical works that need doing. Great job as always, many thanks! Dean and his son did an excellent job installing a video doorbell and security light for us. We have used Marks Electrical Services for a number of years now – they are always very thorough, friendly, knowledgeable and reliable. Highly recommended.
I bought a new home and needed to do various electrical jobs that Dean did brilliantly! Highly recommended! Thanks for your help Dean.
I emailed Marks on a Friday evening for a non-urgent job; I received a quote over the weekend and the job was done by the Monday afternoon. Very friendly and professional service, and although a simple job we were given good advice and reports on the general state of our wiring. We have recently moved in and know there's a lot of work to be done, so this was useful: and he was keen that we should get a number of quotes for the major work to be done rather than pressing to get it himself.
Our first experience with Marks Electrical. Very efficient from estimate to execution! Dean and Matthew were very professional, very knowledgeable - we'd use them again without hesitation.
Dean put in the extra effort to make sure we got exactly what we wanted. Great service at a reasonable price and at short notice. Overall great service, highly recommended!
Dean responded very quickly to my email and then came on time to replace 2 faulty wall sockets in the kitchen, all round good service, I will definitely use Marks Electrical Services again.
Great experience throughout. Professional, tidy and communicative. Dean made sure to check with us before making any decisions and offered advice. Definitely would recommend and we will use his services in the future.
Dean always arrives on time. Have used his services three times now. Works fast and efficiently. First was work on a HMO kitchen. Second was instillation of a direct electric hot water heater and changing panel, as well as moving bathroom fan. Third time was wiring the extension of a house (kitchen, living room, garage, dormer/loft) side extension. Works quickly, tidy, and on time
Marks electrical were very friendly, informative and professional from preparing a quote to doing the work. They had time to talk to me about options and explained everything really well. On the day, they arrived promptly and finished the work in the time they quoted leaving no mess at all. I will definitely be using them again for future projects.
Really professional and reliable...so pleased with several light fitting jobs. Would definitely recommend.
Brilliant service. We've been without heating or hot water and Dean can out on a Sunday morning to repair the wiring to the emersion heater. Super quick, and friendly. Would definitely recommend!
Did a great job! Especially with a larger light in our bedroom. Would definitely recommend using these guys and will use in the future ☺️
Dean came and installed a big chandelier for my first floor landing in my new house yesterday. The whole process was very professional and efficient. He removed the two existing light bulbs, and installed an extra beam for the fixing of the new chandelier. They even patched the previous light holes for me with filler. I couldn't expect anything more. Highly recommended!
Thank you Dean for a neat, thorough job changing failing kitchen spotlights for new ones. It was reassuring to see you safety check everything carefully. It was good to be kept informed of changes in arrangements when you thought you might be late and to have an explanation of what you were doing and why. I will certainly use your services again.
Dean tried tonhelp from the moment we spoke on the phone. Friendly, efficient and reassuring.
Very please with the the work Dean & Matt carried out to install garden lighting in September 2021. On the day, dean was flexible to my suggest to change a route for the main power cable to bury it underground rather than take a longer route. all Cabling was pinned to the wall by clips and saddles and looked really neat & tidy. Garden lights look a treat. just need to stock the borders with some nice plants and flowers to get the full effect. if there are any other types of jobs which I need doing in the future, I will definitely be giving them a call.
Dean and his son did an awesome job of installing new lighting, smoke alarms, additional sockets and upgrading our consumer unit. They were very professional, friendly, and tidied up everything afterwards. They were also great at communicating and very responsive. We would definitely use them again for future jobs. Thanks both!
Very pleased with the work we had done. Dean and Matthew very efficient and left everything tidy, including floorboards that were lifted and plaster that needed making good after replacing faulty wiring.
I was pased this name on to me by my daughter who had used this company and were very pleased with the work they did for her. Subsequently I used them when my sockets and lights kept tripping out. They came very promptly and after a thorough search managed to solve the problems that were causing it all. I will be recommenmding them to my friends and neighbours!
Dean first came to install an electric hob. Both Dean and his son were friendly, professional and efficient. They carried out the work quickly, leaving no mess at all. They have since installed new ceiling lights which I am very pleased with. I intend to ask them to do a couple more electrical jobs for me in the near future. I am pleased to have found a trustworthy and reliable electrician 🙂
He helped us out with issues we had with our fuse box very professionally. Highly recommended.
Installed a replacement consumer unit and earth bonded gas and water pipes. High standard of work, very tidy and considerate, good communication throughout, highly recommended.
Very satisfied with their work. Dean and his son are very professional efficient and tidy. We have no knowledge about electrical work and having abtained few quotes from other electricians we felt that they wanted to just rip us off. Dean was very clear and honest with explaining what needs to be done and he gave us vere competitive quote. He also came up with some pretty good solutions. We recommend Marks Electrical Services 100% and will definitely be using their services again if needed.
Dean connected our new garden office electrics to the shed electrics. He did a great job and he and his colleague were very pleasant, prompt and reliable. When we thought we had an issue with the installation, he came very quickly to check it out and found no problems relating to the installation and also managed to identify and resolve the issue (which was completely unrelated to the electrical work he did). Would highly recommend his work.
Dean provides an exceptional service and I would highly recommend to anyone in need of electrical works. We required the removal and safe decommission of some old strip lights. This was completed swiftly and with upmost professionalism. At the same time, Dean changed over a selection of light switches with no issues regarding the additional work. I fully endorse the 5 star rating and its a pity it cannot be 10 stars! Dean will always be our first choice for all electrical needs. Many thanks for a great job and service. Jon
I asked Dean to install two Ethernet cables to allow me to connect various devices to my router over a wired connection instead on having to use my unreliable Wifi. He did the job on time and to a really high standard. As I’m now working from home full time it’s great to have a reliable network connection at last! Great job!
Super fast quote and fix, couldn't ask for more.
Great electrician, highly recommend
Excellent service. Dean arrived promptly to replace a broken socket and light fitting. Friendly and professional; did a really good job.
Dean installed two new double sockets, replaced old sockets and switches and replaced a broken bathroom fan. He did an excellent job, working quickly and cleanly. Dean explained what he was doing clearly and provided general advice about the state of our home electrics as well. I will definitely be using Dean again for all future electrical work, can't recommend him highly enough, he is a top quality tradesman.
Friendly service. Does the job very well and at a reasonable rate.
Excellent service and top quality work. Could not be more happy and would definitely recommend.
Have called upon Dean a few times now and very happy to recommend. This time was to install a new light switch and wall socket. I have always found him to be a good communicator with prompt follow up , always friendly, courteous, efficient and knowledgeable, all round very professional. He is willing to offer suggestions and advise on the job in hand., and the work has always been to a high standard and competitively priced. He cleans and tidies up and makes sure you are 100% satisfied of the work before he leaves . Great to have someone local you can trust. Thanks again Dean . Andrew C
Responded immediately, very impressed by his professionalism, would certainly use him again
Dean came out to us very quickly, explained what the problem was and fixed it. He's definitely going to be our electrician for future work.
Quick response, accurate estimate of costs - all very efficient and professional. As others have said, he explained everything he was doing. Very courteous and he wore protective shoe covers and covered carpets where he was working, which was was appreciated.
Great sparky team! if you're in need of an electrician in Cambridge, and think quality and reliability are worth it, these are your guys. Prompt and helpful, plus explained all the work so I'd understand for the future.
Found the fault and mended our lights. Efficient, professional and friendly. Thanks.
So helpful and nothing too much trouble. Very tidy and efficient.
Can't say enough good things about Dean. I called to ask him for help with a string of halogen kitchen lights which had partially failed, and to ask for advice on upgrading halogens to LEDs more generally in my house. He arrived at 8am next day determined both to save me money and to offer completely impartial advice - no upselling, just an honest appraisal. He spent time figuring out our complicated transformer circuits and advised on how to upgrade them. He also solved the immediate problem with the kitchen lights. Very nice bloke, too. Update Dec 2019: I know I was pretty enthusiastic last time around but Dean has just helped us install a new oven and he was a gent throughout. He is completely focused on getting the job done in the most efficient way, and with least expense to you -- no padding, no extra work or fees, just the fastest and safest way to a good job. And he always sticks to his deadlines so you never have to worry about chasing him up or rescheduling. With this job we did get another quote and I can only say that Dean was, uh, comfortably lower; in fact, i could do my Christmas shopping with the difference between his quote and the other one!
Dean was fantastic! I needed new socket and an outside light. He was efficient , tidy and I am so pleased with the end result. 100% recommend to anyone looking for electrical work that you may need doing 😀
Prompt, professional and efficient service. Can definitely recommend and will use again.
Did a really nice job, courteous, good communication, good value and I was very pleased to find that they'd put all the furniture back in exactly the right place. It was so tidy it looked like they'd never been.
Prompt response to quote request; work finished quickly to high standard. Really helpful and friendly service.
Brilliant. So helpful, efficient and friendly, we will definitely use him again. Would definitely recommend Dean. Thank you.
Very prompt, professional service. All work done within a day as promised. Would use again.
Great Family business In fairness my usual electrician was unavailable today. I had a problem with my shower. Which I needed to be sorted out quickly. I found this company which had great reviews on line. I fully understand why they have 5 stars. Dean and the Son came out and was able to sort things out very quickly. Totally five star rating. I would certainly use them again if I have a problem. Definitely recommend them to anyone. Thank you so much.
Dean Marks provided electrical services for us installing a new fuse board and moving or installing several sockets and lights. He provided professional, friendly service throughout at a reasonable price and we would not hesitate to use his services again or recommend him to anyone.
Marks electrical is very efficient and the service is prompt good value for money and helpful information and explanations are given I would use him again.
Dean came at short notice to carry out essential work and did a great job at a very reasonable price. Well satisfied and thanks
We have been using Mark's Electrical Services for a number of years now. The service, quality of work, honesty and value has always been exemplary. In addition, this company has always been able to address any issues we have had very quickly. We have used their services for building alterations, new office electrical fit outs, replacement of fuse boxes and other general electrical works. We would happily recommend Marks Electrical to individual or company.
Great service, and seemed very ethical, fair and thorough. Couldn't do all the jobs we'd requested due to identifying a problem with our wiring, spent a good bit of time investigating at no charge, and then completed what they were able to (safely) do on the day, with advice for further options. We'd def have them back. They were recommended to us, and would definitely recommend to others.
Arrived within an hour or so and sorted our issue very swiftly.
Dean took a lot of trouble to give me helpful advice on sourcing a replacement heater and then did a very neat job of fitting it and ensuring that everything was safe. I would certainly recommend him.
Dean installed a bathroom fan and security camera very efficiently and for a good price despite access being difficult He arrived promptly and communicated excellently via email and phone beforehand. He left things very clean and tidy.
Prompt, friendly and very knowledgeable. Dean installed my cooker and made thorough safety checks, as well as advising me on what to expect with my new induction hob! Great communications. Will definitely use again - and recommend to my friends.
Excellent service- very professional and cannot recommend more highly.
Dean quoted a reasonable price, came on time, did a very professional job and left the place clean and tidy. As always, he was very pleasant to deal with. What more could you ask for?
Competent, energetic and helpful electrician, conscientious, safety-conscious, neat work completed to high standard. Punctual, achieved a lot in half a day, and tidy. No hesitation in recommending him.
Dean was professional and did the job quickly and efficiently
Dean came to carry out some work for me at my workplace, Romsey Mill. He did an excellent job, really thorough, reasonably priced and was able to attend quickly - just what i was looking for. It was the first time we have used Marks Electrical and I will definitely be calling on them again.
I contacted Dean the on 27th December as my RCD on my downstairs sockets kept tripping. Although he wasn't working he took 10 minutes of his time to see if we could isolate the problem, We couldn't but I appreciated his efforts. The sockets needed totally rewiring and Dean did a very professional job.
Have been using Dean's services for years, always prompt, helpful and reliable service, pleasantly surprised by reasonable size of invoice as well - bonus!
We called out dean as we had an emergency with our lights going out. He came within the hour eventhough it was an unsociable time. He got our lights back on and arranged another visit to look at the fault. He came back on time and rectified the problem very quickly. He was so professional and left everything exceptionally tidy. We can highly recommend his services and would not hesitate to use him again
Called out on a Sunday - excellent service fixed the problem; good price.
Excellent, prompt service at a fair price - strongly recommended
Dean fitted a plug socket in our down stairs loo so we could turn it into a utility room. He was a really nice guy, did an amazingly neat job, would highly recommend.
This is the first time we have used Dean and will definitely contact him for further electrical work. He went to great efforts to respond to our enquiry and find a suitable time and date to visit. The work was very professional and expertly explained. He highlighted other work that we need to have done in the near future, without any pressure to commit. Really pleased to found him!
Dean did a great job for us. He was very professional, efficient, and friendly. Communication was good throughout the work. I would strongly recommend him.
Dean has always done a great job for us, whether large or tiny. Always a fair price, and the job done as promised, and happy to work around other contractors if necessary.
Always Professional, No Added costs and have used Mark's Electrical for 10 Years +
Very happy with the service, would engage him again for any future work we have.
Dean has helped us out with many electrical jobs at home. From changing light fittings, to adding and removing switches, no job is too big or small. Dean is always reliable and helpful. Happy to recommend him to all our friends.
Excellent service. Unlike many other tradesmen, Dean was very quick in getting back to us with quotes and dates to do the work in our flat. Great quality of work carried out. We would recommend him to family and friends.
Dean is thoroughly professional. Sorted out a fairly minor problem with my kitchen light fitting but went the extra mile to check my consumer unit was working as it should be and my water supply was not causing any problems. This is so reassuring for a single woman with no idea how stuff like this works!
Great service. Communicated well, did the job to a great standard and for a reasonable price. Would definitely come back to Dean for further electrical work.
Thanks to Dean and Damon. Really helpful, sorted it all out quickly and efficiently.
Dean was brilliant! We’re really happy with the work. It looks really neat, and does exactly what we wanted. His quote was more reasonable than other electricians we asked too. He was genuine, helpful, friendly, polite and prompt and we’d 100% recommend his services. Thanks Dean!
Dean installed a new consumer unit for me which I should have had done ages ago. I wanted a couple of extra wall sockets but was not sure how tricky/messy this would be. Dean quickly assessed the job and came up with an inspired solution which completely hid any cabling. Dean and his mate are very capable, hard working and clear up immaculately. I would definitely recommend Dean to anyone. Honest and friendly.
5 Gold stars for Dean and his assistant! They traced and fixed a tricky fault with a ring main. Hard working, logical thinking, honest and tidy. I'd have no hesitation in using them again and happy to recommend them to others.
Dean has done several electrical jobs for us in our home, from replacing faulty light fittings and sockets, to sorting out a lighting problem in the oven. He is always helpful reliable and efficient. I have no hesitation in recommending him.
Dean carried out a full re-wire for us and it came in on time and within budget. The quality of work and the speed it was carried out at was first class, and we will continue to use his services in future
Really pleased with the work Dean and Damon have done for me. Both are very efficient and professional and made some great suggestions. Highly recommended. Thanks very much!
Dean is outstanding: very responsive, reliable and honest. Highly recommended!
We called Dean as we had bought an Edwardian wreck of a house and needed help and guidance. Dean provided both and has been brilliant throughout. Not only does he really know his stuff, but his work is quick, efficient and always cheerful. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.
I needed some electrical work done in my house – more sockets in the living room, extractor fan in the bathroom amongst other things. I live in Cottenham, and like to keep work local when I can, but tried several Cottenham based electricians, who either didn’t respond to my emails & phone messages, or the one who did, made an appointment and didn’t bother turning up - so I tried googled and thought I’d try Dean. He responded to email within ½ hour, and came around to quote the following day. He gave us ideas, told us about more cost-effective alternatives, carried out the work the following week. Dean, and his colleague, worked effectively and cleanly to a very high standard. Pricing was less that we were expecting – which is a bonus. We have had Dean back to do more work for us since, and will not hesitate to use him again for future work that we are planning. • Reliable • Honest • Friendly • Polite • Good quality workmanship • Cost effective work • Actually turned up – unlike others I would recommend Dean and his colleague to anyone, without hesitation. Simon.
Work completed to a high standard and have full confidence in him... and a good guy too! Would highly recommend.
Brilliant service, quick efficient and great value, highly recommended and will definately be back again. Thanks very much.
Dean is an excellent electrician and delivers a prompt, efficient and affordable service.His advice is always helpful and he saved us over £600 recently when he advised us to try and get a refund on a faulty oven we had bought over 18 months before.He has replaced all the ceiling light in our house and done a couple of other smaller jobs for us over the past three years.He is very particular about safety issues and his team always work in a tidy and efficient manner and never leave a mess when they have finished.We highly recommend him and are planning to use his services again shortly .Best electrician on the planet!
Dean and his crew arrived promptly and did a very tidy job installing weatherproof outdoor sockets and running a supply to our summerhouse and shed. They also replaced a broken cooker hood. Both jobs were done quickly, professionally and with very little mess. No hesitation in recommending Marks Electrical Services to anyone.
I first dealt with Dean last year during the refurbishment of my bathroom and en-suite. He and his colleagues were very friendly and professional, and they carried out the work in a prompt and efficient manner. They are returning next week to upgrade my fuse board. I would definitely recommend them.
Excellant, I had a lighting problem which he solved over the telephone. I will certainly use this service next time. Thank you
Dean fitted a fused spur in our property. He worked carefully and efficiently. The results were neatly done at a fair price. Would happily use him again.
An extremely capable, thorough and, very importantly, flexible and attentive company, and we are very happy to have them local to us in Histon. The most recent job that Marks Electrical has done, in October 2015 - was to rewire the trunking to the immersion heater. To ensure proper operation, the old thermostat on the heater was replaced as well. The timing of the job - when people were about - was worked around and Dean communicated well. Very satisfied!
Have fully or partly rewired several houses for us. Arrives as promised and completes work quickly and to a good quality. Have been quick on repair call outs too.
Dean came and fixed an outdoor security light for me. He kept me well informed as to the time of his arrival, was professional, courteous and charged a fair price. I would definitely use him again.
We just moved to Histon and found that our house had unexpected electrical problems. Dean was out in a flash and gave rapid and courteous service to the highest standards AND at extremely reasonable rates. He and his crew are absolutely first rate. I can't imagine ever using anyone else.
Dean has done many jobs for me over the years. From providing full electrical services to a garage, to rewiring large parts of the house, his work is always of a high standard, on time, and competitive. He regularly puts himself out to help and is my first choice for any electrical work. I have recommended him to friends who also have had a positive experience of working with him. He is an extremely reliable and capable electrician and I cannot recommend him highly enough.
We just had Dean fit us some wall and ceiling lights we bought. He worked around our schedule and came to do the job at a convenient time for us. He even wore shoe covers when he came in and out of the house! He's everything you want from a tradesman; efficient, reliable and considerate.
Dean has carried out lots of electrical work for us over the years and today fitted spot lights in our kitchen in Histon, Cambridge. Great job as always. We would highly recommend.
