Reviewers of MHY Electrical Services & Electricians Kendal repeatedly describe Mike as professional, friendly and good at explaining what he is doing, and many say they would use him again or recommend him. Several reviews report emergency call-outs, including late evenings, weekends and Christmas Eve, with some saying he arrived quickly or within half an hour to 90 minutes. Multiple reviewers say jobs were finished neatly and to a high standard, including rewires, new fuse boxes, sockets, light fittings and chandeliers. One reviewer reports Mike had to correct dangerous wiring left by another fitter, and another says he came out to fix a serious fault that was not his responsibility. One reviewer notes that Mike is extremely busy, though they present this as evidence of a good job.
Mike answered the phone late on a Friday evening .we we're panicking and he agreed to come and work through the problem. Absolutely cannot recommend him highly enough. Professional, methodical and took time to explain in terms we could understand. Would give 50 stars if we could. Excellent professional and a very nice guy aswell.
Fantastic service from start to finish. Very professional - the best electrician we've had do work for us - job was finished to the highest standard by an electrician who really is a skilled craftsman Superb, we will use again for any electrical work. Really nice guy and the price was excellent considering the work that he did. Five Stars - Highly recommended.
We got Mike in to do a day's worth of odd electrical jobs around the house (fitting new lights and installing a smart thermostat). Very reasonably priced with a good lead time for his services. Would definitely use again.
A really excellent job done He had to put two chandeliers with 78 glass pendants and went out and got light bulbs for them FIVE STAR service
Mike helped us with a survey on our first home. He's efficient and communicates quickly and clearly. Couldn't recommend him more!
Mike is professional and friendly. Providing 1st class service. Very thorough and highly skilled. Thank you
Mike's done a few different jobs for us over the last 3 years, and we'd highly recommend him. He is always responsive to enquiries and tells you exactly when he can schedule in your job/keeps you informed - if only everyone would do this! - and is helpful with providing advice. All the jobs he's completed have been excellent quality and very neat/tidy etc (he even filled the holes he needed to make in walls - handy for rubbish DIY people like us 😀). Mike also saved us from a situation where a fitter had wired our new electricity meter incorrectly and dangerously - from my description of the issues we were encountering, he immediately realised there was a major problem and came out to fix it as an urgent job even though it shouldn't have been his responsibility. Prices charged are always more than fair for the work done and transparent. We will always ask Mike for any future electrical work we need!
Mike did a stellar job with both the inside and outside work.Pointing out the shortfall from previous Electrician's work and making practical recommendations.Thanks Mike for a first rate job. Would highly recommend.
Called Mike out late this evening for an urgent issue and he arrived quickly. Top guy who took the time to explain things and got the job sorted efficiently. Really reasonably priced and seems to have a lot of experience. Would definitely recommend and will certainly be using him again whilst we renovate our new home. Thanks Mike!
I rang panicked for Mike's help with an electrics issue at a late hour. Ringing a tradesman can be frightening when you haven't met them before, especially in a stressful situation. But Mike was so friendly, polite, calm and reassuring, and came over even earlier than expected. I'd give ten stars if I could! Warmly recommend his services.
Mike is a fantastic electrician. Came within a couple of days, assessed the job and emailed the quote the same day. Straight away, I could tell that he was someone who had an attention to detail. Once the date had been arranged all work was completed to a very high standard and expertly finished. I would highly recommend Mike for any work and you won't be disappointed.
Brilliant! Mike happened to be finishing a job that day - and so was able to be at mine within the hour! Solved my problem pronto, checked out another little glitch. Great service, excellent communication - highly recommended!
Excellence service, quick professional response, problem sorted with friendly service.Will use again
From surveying through to installation we are delighted with the service and the quality of the work undertaken. This is the 2nd time we have used MHY Electrical Svs which probably speaks for itself. Would highly recommend
A TRUE MASTER OF HIS CRAFT. TOP HUMAN BEING
After accidentally drilling a hole through a wire in the wall we phoned Mike for advice and he came to repair within 30 minutes of our call. Such an amazing job we are so grateful! Would recommend his services to anyone- he really went above and beyond to help us. Thank you Mike.
Helpful, informative and hard working. An all round good experience.
Responded to my initial inquiry on the same day. Agreed a time to view the potential job and arrived on time. Also gave useful advice. Very professional approach. Completed today as agreed and to quote. Highly recommend to anyone seeking an electrician
Fantastic service! Really nice guy, who was very professional and a pleasure to have in the house. Would always recommend and use again in future.
Mike of MHY was brilliant! He responded and kept us totally informed of progress. The quality of his workmanship is excellent.
Very tidy. Explained clearly and fixed as explained.
Highly responsive to an emergency callout. Fixed the problem straight away and kept my elderly clients informed all the way. 5 star service and very professional.
Great advice thanks 🙂
I cannot recommend Mike enough. He quoted for minor works competitively, communicated with us throughout the works (including progress pictures) and worked quickly and neatly to complete the work to a very high standard. He was also warm and friendly. Well worth using.
Mike and his team professional from start to finish. Really nice guy, squeezed in a tricky job while quite busy, and completed quickly and effectively. Great communication and super honest. Recommend!
Great professional job done. Super friendly and sorted everything. Even went above and beyond to get the work done as efficiently and cleanly as possible. One of the trusted ones.
MYH Electrical came out at very short notice on a Saturday evening for an emergency repair, diagnosing and fixing the issue quickly and efficiently and taking the time and attention to help with other queries I had explaining the whole process. I couldn't be happier to have found such a brilliant local electrician. Would thoroughly recommend them!
Excellent friendly service can’t fault it!
We messaged Mike the day after Boxing Day after drilling through a wire and losing the boiler - he was here within 90 minutes, fitted a junction box, replastered and came back the next morning to finish off. Very friendly and professional, and very fairly priced as well. Definitely recommended
Prompt and friendly service
Rapid response to my enquiry. An electrician was with us in 30 mins , they went above and beyond to explain everything they checked and were very thorough. Once the issue was resolved they advised us of further choices regarding our electrics. All in all a great service, friendly knowledgeable and professional, for a reasonable price. Will use again and recommend.
Emergency callout on Xmas eve and sorted me right out. Incredibly grateful and a fantastic job
Definitely recommend and would call again for future work. Can't say thank you enough. Such a knowledgeable and helpful man. Gave me advise over the phone, when I was having a meltdown about my electrics blowing out downstairs (The week of Christmas) Mike directed me with what to do calmly and talked me through it all. It ended up being a cooker fault and I worried about it all evening so asked a few hours later if he was able to fit us in to just check over the wall sockets as it looked like an electrical burn in a socket. He came around the very next morning and we are so grateful for that. Turns out we need a new cooker and he even gave us advice on that to. Top service, great value and very happy over all. Highly highly recommend.
Thanks to Mike, our Hive receiver was installed. Very informative and friendly. Do recommend and will use again in the future if needed 😊
We have been very impressed with Mike. Not only for his professionalism at every stage and keeping us updated, but his expertise in other areas in our house repair. He is so knowledgeable, a safe pair of hands and really friendly. Highly recommended!
Mike was quick to respond to my request for him to replace a decrepid junction box in the attic for our upstairs lighting circuit. He was able to fit in the job the same week. His quote was accurate and he arrived on time to carry out the work. The new junction box was neatly installed. Very professional and helpful. Will definitely be asking Mike to do any future work electrical work for us.
Mike came to us first thing in the morning to fix the problem we had, he was very knowledgeable and efficient, would definitely recommend him!
Mike did a fantastic job upgrading wiring and installing surge protection and several new sockets and light fittings . Mike also went the extra mile, sorting out new issues that were found during the course of the work . Mike clearly explained everything he was doing and the jobs were completed in the expected timeframe. Would highly recommend .
Would highly recommend, a quality service from the initial discussions to completion of the work.
Brilliant service, caring professional, clean and tidy work, came out at a moments notice, highly recomend
Like many people requiring an expert opinion but not sure who to trust I googled local electricians and MHY Electricals came up with exceptional ratings and reviews and I must say they are absolutely correct..! I had just recently moved to the area and arranged for Mike to visit the day we got the keys to check the safety of the electrics which he did without question, spending over 4 hours of his own time inspecting and repairing broken sockets to ensure me and my family were safe. Following this free visit and advice we decided to replace the consumer unit, which was a very old 1960s style with multiple years of additions with an up to date safer RCD protected system. We also decided to improve the kitchen lights removing the single lamp with energy efficient LED spotlights, replacing the thermostat and broken lights and plug sockets throughout the house. During this very stressful time Mike has been second to none, ensuring our safety, which is Mike’s number one priority, fitting us in on his weekends to make sure we were brought up to date with safety as soon as possible. Throughout the works MHY Electricals were reliable, friendly and respectful of my home even helping me to wall mount my TVs and install a loft light so I could safely install insulation and remove the redundant water storage tank. I honestly don’t know what we would have done without MHY Electricals in our first month; in our new first house. His 30+ years of experience in the industry and professionalism have enabled them to give us sound advice on a varying topic of home improvement / construction ideas and the quotes were always detailed and sent promptly after reviewing the works. Thanks again guys we really appreciate everything you have done for us and I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending MHY Electricals to anyone that needs a professional, friendly and competitive price for any electrical works. I have other works booked in and can’t wait to have them back round.
Mike did a full rewire of our 3 bed house and we're really happy with the result. Mike has great attention to detail and takes pride in his work. Mike was happy to talk us through different options and very patient while we worked through some challenges, as first time renovaters this was hugely appreciated! We happily recommend him to friends and family. In fact since doing work on our house he's done work on several of our neighbours houses, he's the go to for the close!
Mike is professional, friendly and incredibly knowledgeable. He got our underfloor heating working again and then we asked him back to replace the main fuse box. He always arrived on time and gave us very accurate estimates of how long the power would be off for as well as how long each job would take. Highly recommended.
Really quick to respond, really helpful and did a great job. Would recommend to everyone.
MHY Electrical come to re-route a cable which a previous electrician had left dangerously under the carpet, MHY Electrical not only routed the cable properly (under a stud floor and up a stud wall), but did so in a friendly and professional manor with no fuss! Very clean any tidy working and a neat job of finishing.
Amazing service, sorted out an initial problem the day I called and then came back to update other bits. Excellent value and very professional.
Mike is a professional and respectable skilled electrician who took the time to drive out of his usual patch to attend to my flat's faulty circuit breaker. I would highly recommend to anyone in South Lakes. Thank you.
Fantastic ! Arrived within half an hour to an emergency call out. Very professional, and committed to solve what appeared to be a mysterious lack of power. 😊 would most definitely recommend 🌟
We booked Mike in to install additional electrical sockets in our garage. Mike was professional in his work and provided helpful suggestions about the best location and height to site the new sockets. He also was able to fit in some additional work repairing a faulty electrical kitchen socket and two light sockets at the same time. I would definitely recommend MHY electrical services for any work you are considering and will hopefully be using Mike again for future work. It’s worth noting however, that Mike is extremely busy, although that is only an additional evidence of someone who does a good job!
I recently used MHY Electrical to fit a series of new sockets throughout my house. Mike (who is clearly a bit of a perfectionist) was excellent throughout, with excellent communication and impeccable work. As someone who is relatively new to DIY I very much appreciated Mike talking me through exactly what he was doing – it’s nice to learn, if only on a superficial level. Highly recommended.
We hired MHY Electrical to update almost our entire electrical system, including moving many sockets out of skirting boards, figuring out what was where and installing a brand-new fuse box. Most areas needed a full rewire and there were a variety of other ‘interesting’ aspects that revealed themselves over the course of the work and needed sorting out. Mike’s attention to detail was fantastic, with much thought given to how each aspect of the work would affect the rest of the system. He gave us step by step explanations of what he was planning to do and why, and what the outcomes would be. As we were also living in the house as the work progressed, Mike made sure that there were always rooms we could access and use every evening, along with temporary electrics overnight as needed. The work areas were kept neat and tidy and cleaned up at the end of each day. Every hole was filled and sanded, and every floorboard safely fixed back down. We would have no hesitation in recommending MHY Electrical to anyone. In addition to all of the above – as I have recently passed my City & Guilds Domestic Electrical Installer exams – I also got some great, hands-on work experience myself! Mike is a former teacher and his patience, encouragement and clear instructions gave me great deal of confidence and helped me understand a lot of the practical aspects to electrical work that they just don’t teach you in a classroom!
Great service, reasonable price, very professional!
I am very happy with the work done by Mike at MHY. He was timely and professional with great communication. Excellent attention to detail and very helpful professional advice. I would definitely use MHY again.
First class service from this firm. I called them on Saturday evening when the lights in my elderly parent's house had fused. The electrician came round very quickly and fixed the problem and came back the following day to fit a much-needed new kitchen light. The price was very reasonable indeed. I really appreciate the kindness and the prompt and efficient service. I highly recommend this firm.
Mike has been absolutely fantastic. I got in him to do a full rewire of our bungalow, plus quite a lot of other bells and whistles. The job was far from straightforward and other electricians didn't want to touch it with a bargepole. Mike answered straight away and booked us in as soon as he was able. The job constantly evolved as Mike was working on it and he was very understanding with my constantly changing requirements, as we were also knocking down walls and completely remodelling the bare bones of the house while the rewire was ongoing. I should note as well that Mike did a brilliant job filling in all the channeled walls and holes that were created during the work. Thank you again so much and we will be happily using you again in the future. 😄
Mike does a brilliant, professional job and nothing is too much trouble. Probably the best tradesman we have had the pleasure of doing work for us. Thank you!
I can’t recommend MHY highly enough. Called about a control switch that had blown and Mike was there within a couple of hours. MHY also did a fantastic job replacing our antiquated fuse box. Mike is professional, friendly, explains everything clearly and the quality of the work is superb.
Highly recommended
Fantastic service. Efficient, reasonably priced and conscientious. Would highly recommend. Sarah
Had a problem with two new light sockets and switches that kept tripping the main fuse box. Within 2 hours of phoning Mike, he had been and sorted out the problem. Very quick and professional service. Talked me through everything he was doing and even share some tricks of the trade. Will definitely use Mike's services again in the future and would highly recommend to anyone.
Mike was incredibly professional. His quote was accurate and the job was completed with no issues.
Fantastic emergency service. Arrived within 1 hour on a Sunday evening, fixed loose connection on a socket, great value - friendly and fair. Highly recommend!

MHY Electrical were highly recommended by a friend who used them for a rewiring of their house. Mike of MHY is very professional and just as you would expect works safely and to a high standard. Mike upgraded our consumer unit to the latest safety standard and carried out a full inspection of our properties electrical circuits. The installation of the new consumer unit was registered with the correct authorities and we have received all necessary installation and inspection certificates. We feel the cost of the work was priced correctly for the length of time it took to complete. Communication from Mike was great and he arrived when he said he would. Mike is easy to talk to and happy to explain the work he is undertaking. MHY came highly recommended to us and I also highly recommend them to whoever needs professional electrical services.
Mike came to fit new down lights in the kitchen. Very pleased with the work, very efficient, punctual and a great job, would highly recommend.
I was left without power to all my sockets after AO fitters couldn't install my oven and couldn't restore my power. Mike was very responsive after we called him for an emergency visit and he got our power back, installed my oven and fixed a dodgy socket too. Just goes to show you should call the professionals when you need a job doing!
We called Mike after one of our sockets blew. He came straight away and was extremely professional and personable. He kept us informed of what he was doing and explained everything fully. I would highly recommend Mike for any electrical job.
Mike sorted our outdoor electrics, main fuse box and various faults inside the house. Did a great job, honest and reliable ; extremely professional too.
100% recommend this guy! Our hardwired fire alarms had set off in the night over the weekend with no actual fire or smoke that had set them off, causing a complete “nightmare neighbour” situation! We called as an emergency and Mike came ASAP, Friendly, professional and just got on with the job! Top guy top service!
Mike is one and only one electrician who will respond for my urgent request to come and have a look with my electric power cut off in 40 min after our conversation,sorting out in one hour giving step by step explaining what he is doing,just no comments THE BEST IN UK. Never meet as him before.Well done
Great service from Mike and his team. Professional, friendly and clearly explained what was required and why. Totally trusted their knowledge and expertise and would fully recommend them. Neat and tidy too!
Mike came out at short notice on a bank holiday, speedily found out what the issue was with a boiler thermostat and fixed it in a short time. He provided an excellent service. Highly recommended.
I would highly recommend MHY, Mike is a very reliable and conscientious worker who always goes the extra mile. The electrical fault we had was quite difficult to locate but by process of elimination Mike methodically found and fixed the problem, much appreciated Mike well done!
I had what sounded like an arcing fusebox, I send a text Mike late on a Sunday evening and he called back within 2 mins to ensure that the property was safe overnight and not at risk of electrical fire. He then came out early Monday morning to investigate and resolve. Very professional, took the time to explain the fault, provide options to resolve and charged reasonably for time and materials (parts charged at cost). Would recommend and will use again
I cannot recommend MHY enough. Mike was professional, very friendly and timely in all responses. Would definitely use again.
MHY Electrical work was to the highest standard and clearer outlined what work was required to bring the house up to meet the current regulations standard. Without a shadow of a doubt I will use him for future electrical work around my house and highly recommend others to use him for their electrical work.
MHY Electrical were fantastic, helping us with our new extension. The quality of work was outstanding and Mike's professional approach to his work was hugely reassuring. We really appreciated his advice and guidance with every aspect of the work he did. Nothing was too much for him and he was always keen to make sure that we knew exactly what was happening and what to expect. We would highly recommend MHY to anyone.
Contacted Mike for what I thought was a simple job of replacing a shower... Uncovered a tale of dodgy electrical work from years past. Ancient fuse board and additional distrubution boards all replaced. Checked all the wiring in the house is safe and replaced an undersized supply for a washing machine. And all in the time between Christmas and new year.
