Reviewers of Ambiance Electrical describe James as friendly, helpful and professional, with many reporting that he arrived promptly or at short notice, including evenings and weekends. Several reviews mention that he explained the work and gave advice, and many report that he found and fixed faults. Reviewers also mention that he tested the work and left the area tidy. One reviewer reported a bad experience: after about seven hours of exploratory work, they were invoiced £280 and later given estimates of £1,400, then £750, for replacing all the garden lights; they then found four dead lights and one that tripped the electrics themselves and replaced five floodlights for £130. That reviewer felt the fault-finding focused on cabling rather than the lights and considered the price too high.
Fantastic work, very thorough but still got everything done swiftly, great lad overall. 10/10
James fitted a plug for us so we could use our washing machine in our new house. He came the same day as we called and even looked at another plug when asked. Professional, prompt and reasonably priced. Thanks so much James!
James is incredibly knowledgeable - I asked for some advice on a new lighting circuit and he didn’t hesitate to visit the following day and offer his opinion. I didn’t ever feel pressured and he took the time to explain everything to me in detail. Will definitely be using his services again in the future
Awesome person and did an awesome job for a great price! Highly recommend came on time and smashed the job out the park! Cant thank you enough James.
We were very happy with the work James had done for us previously so we called him again for a couple of jobs. He responded promptly and completed the work to a high standard yesterday. James is very friendly and professional and is our first preference for any electrical work.
James was very friendly & did an excellent job.He explained what the issues were, repairing & making safe socket /main light fittings.
James was brilliant great advice on how to proceed with the job and got it sorted in no time at all would highly recommend him
We were looking for a reliable electrician to replace our old kitchen spotlights with new LED ones. After seeing his 5* reviews we contacted James, who came out that afternoon and ordered the parts needed. He returned on Friday and did a brilliant job of fitting new lights and dimmer switch. He also gave us some advice on our extractor fan, which has saved us £'s. Not only is he a real professional, a technical expert, knowledgeable on local suppliers, but a lovely helpful man. We would certainly use him again!
I chose to ring James after seeing all the 5* reviews he has. He gave some useful advice over the telephone and came out to have a look at the problem shortly afterwards. Although unable to do the work himself, he immediately contacted another electrician for me, who he highly recommends. James is very friendly and professional and I would like to thank him for his help.
“Excellent service. I had a light that hadn’t been working for over a year, and the electrician diagnosed and fixed the issue quickly. Professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. I’m very satisfied and would definitely use his services again.”Thankyou so much
James replied to me really prompting after getting in touch about a small electrical job, and came out the next day to inspect. He arrived when he said he would and gave us invaluable advice about how best to proceed. James is very friendly and professional and I would definitely recommend him!
I contacted James regarding the installation of a small to medium‑sized chandelier. He responded promptly and even visited my property the same day to assess the work and provide a quotation. He returned the following day to carry out the installation, and I found him to be extremely professional and friendly. I would highly recommend James for any electrical work, a very reliable and skilled professional.
I have used James before, simply googled Preston Electrician and called. He arrived a few hours later and fixed a faulty light switch. His work was faultless, very professional and at a very competitive price. He struck me as just being a lovely man. More recently my elderly Mother-in -Law who doesn’t trust tradesmen needed a fuse box looking at as something kept tripping the whole electrical system leaving her without any power. I called James and within 2 hours he had called her up and been round to assess the problem, quickly identifying a faulty oven element. He arranged for a local workman to replace the element. Because he hadn’t been able to fix the fault he didn’t even charge her. Good old fashioned values which I didn’t think existed today. What a lovely man 👍🏾
James was fantastic. Very Professional and did a great job. He came on the same day when we made contact even though it was a weekend. We would fully recommend James for any electrical work.
Fantastic! I needed a kitchen celing light fitting and james can round at very short notice, did a great job and is a really nice guy would definitely recommend him thank you james
A though and through professional. James did a brilliant job installing an outside socket for me and his testing after the fact was meticulous. Can't recommend highly enough!
James has done a great job adding new sockets to our kitchen. He's extremely diligent and knowledgeable and always does a really good job. He always goes above and beyond to get the job done.
I would highly recommend Ambience Electrical. Even at short notice, James was communicative before arriving with an accurate ETA, and was able to fix the problem promptly. The fee was fair, and he was friendly and informative about the issue throughout his visit. Thank you, Ambience!
James is a lovely chap! Came out to sort some lighting issues we were having after a leak and did a cracking job. Also left me with some advice for the future to prevent other issues, highly recommended!
Very happy to recommend James. Prompt, friendly, knowledgeable and affordably priced. He fixed the issue in a single visit at relatively short notice. Everything you'd hope for when you call an electrician.
Cannot recommend Ambiance electrical highly enough. James came when he said he would and kept me updated if he was delayed. I needed some new sockets fitted in my daughter's bedroom. James did a great job, even taking time to screw down floorboards that hadn't been previously screwed down when he finished. He then came back the day after to do a full safety test, and again tidied up some electrical work done previously by another company. Thankyou James we will definitely be using you again
James was helpful and resolved my problem properly, repairing the underlying issues
I contacted James for a job after not hearing back from a few others I’d contacted. James replied promptly and came out the next day to offer us a quote before coming back a few days later to complete the work. Unfortunately the job ended up being more complicated then we’d originally thought - which was completely unforeseen- but James stayed until late to ensure he completed it to a high standard and kept the cost very reasonable. James is professional, friendly and meticulous. I wouldn’t hesitate to have him complete work for us again. Thank you!!
James promptly rang me and came to my house to give a quote when I posted for this job....he was really efficient .got him to come back for another job a few days later ...same efficient and pleasant attitude to his work...would highly recommend him
Thank you James, he is so helpful and nice, although he doesn't have time to sort my problem he recommends another electrician to me and is now all sorted, really appreciate it, thank you James.
I selected James of Ambiance Electrical as he had so many positive reviews. I can honestly say they all ring true. I wanted some sockets and light fittings moved in a bedroom, I happened to mention an intermittent fault also in the kitchen, on investigation this turned into more unplanned work owing to poor workmanship from previous installations. James explained everything he was doing as work progressed and resolved the many issues he came across. I am very satisfied with the finished results and impressed with his attention to detail in documenting/photographing wiring which will be hidden in walls and the attic. I can, without hesitation recommend James (Ambiance Electrical) for his high standards of workmanship.
Fantastic job! James came to fit some new lights in our home along with a new plug socket. Although we came across some issues along the way with the wiring not being earthed. James gave some amazing advice on different options for our new lights and for futuristic jobs. James is a very polite and friendly man. He is very knowledgeable in the job he does and reasonably priced. We would definitely recommend James to everyone!
James was absolutely awesome 👌!!! Top services and affordable! Highly recommend!
James did a thorough job investigating, identifying and fixing a wiring issue in our kitchen. Friendly, helpful and superb value for money- especially as there were some nasty surprises that took longer than expected and made the job far more troublesome than anticipated. Would recommend.
I hired James from Ambiance Electrical for some electrical work in my house, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. From start to finish, he was on time, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. He clearly explained what needed to be done, provided a fair and transparent quote, and completed the work efficiently and to a very high standard. What really stood out was his attention to detail and commitment to safety. He made sure everything was ok in the house, and even gave us advise for other area. It’s clear he takes pride in his work. I highly recommend James to anyone in need of a reliable and skilled electrician. I’ll definitely be using his services again in the future!
James came out to me on a last minute job, professional and did a fantastic job! Can't thank him enough. Highly recommend!
Great service at a great price. The electrician was friendly and very helpful. Happy to recommend
James was extremely professional. Came within a few hours. A lot of tradesmen always seem in a rush but James took his time to find the problem and got it resolved. Gave some sound advice and would highly recommend.
Very happy with the service. James made every effort to come in and look at the issue the same day. He worked until late evening to find the problem and then to ensure it is fixed as quickly as possible. Will definitely use James again!
I recently contacted James about an upgrade to the electrical feed to the garage. He couldn't have been more helpful. He is very responsive and easy to communicate with, about all details of the work. And he's very thorough and knowledgeable, I would highly recommend him.
I called James to fit a new socket for our new kitchen hot tap, he surprisingly attended a couple of hours later and tested the electrics first (which he told me about in advance) to ensure all was safe to go ahead first. Unfortunately, the wiring in the house is a shambles which James thoroughly checked for a long time and advised he couldn't fit a new socket due to safety standards as a fault on the circuit needed to be found first. He was very helpful in providing details to and of another trusted electrician who was able to complete sooner because James had another callout due which was pre booked. Very friendly and helpful gentleman, I would definitely call James again if further electrical work was needed in the house. Thanks James. Atiquah
I called James on Monday and he was able to come out same day to change my lights Fixtures price very affordable. James was really helpful nice man to chat with and the job was done very professionally. I am well pleased with my new lights the lights where checked at very step thank you very much James very well pleased.
Asked James to replace an old ceiling light fitting. There were a couple of unexpected problems with the new fitting but James sorted all of those out brilliantly. A great job that we are very happy with. Will readily use James again in the future
A little late leaving this review as the work was done end of Feb but the best Electrician we have had out. James was able to arrive at our house within a few hours of us calling. He was very thorough and not only found the fault but identified some very dangerous historic wiring. He made the situation safe before returning over the next few days to properly rewire the affected areas. On top of that he provided extensive testing and fitted some things free of charge. Very thorough and professional. Would recommend to everyone!
We asked James to remove old and install new electrical light fittings around the house as well as install an outside electrical socket. His work is of a very high standard - safety is his priority. He checked everything along the way and ensured that we were satisfied with the work. He is meticulous in his approach and will not be beaten if he comes across a problem, especially with someone else's previous installations... A gentleman with a great work ethic. Would have no hesitation in recommending James.
What a huge stroke of luck we had finding James when in a blind panic a few weeks ago when a plug socket started hissing and smoking. James came within the hour on a Saturday and isolated it, thus it was a huge relief. As we had a few other electrical jobs we needed doing we enlisted the services of James. In a day and age where it is almost impossible to hire somebody reliable and honest along came James to restore our faith in humanity. James is extremely knowledgeable, with an old school work ethic...and he is a very nice chap to boot. He quietly and thoroughly cracked on with all the jobs and these were completed to a very high standard. Undoubtedly he will be recommended to friends and family. I can't wait for somebody to say "does anybody know a good electrician"...you bet we do. After the work was completed we received the bill with a full breakdown and it was very reasonable. James comes highly recommended from us. 😀 Thanks again James.
Highly recommended. Very grateful for such a quick response. James bent over backwards to help and did a great job sorting the issue.
Very informative, helpful and friendly. James does a very good job, would highly recommend to anyone
James couldn't be more helpful. He sourced the just right outside light for us and replaced a light fitting Leaving our home neat and tidy. Would highly recommend.
Recently had James from ambiance electrics take a look at a few problems we were starting to have from recently getting our new kitchen fitted 2 years ago. He checked all plug sockets to see which one was causing a problem and then discovered other things that wasn’t done correctly. He made it safe for us, as part of the problem we discovered was water leakage. Very thorough, straight forward and pleasantly friendly gentleman. Thanks James!
I contacted James on a Saturday morning and a few hours later he was at my door. I had mistakenly cut through an outside wire to some garden lights in our new house. James rectified the situation and made sure all was safe. He was professional & friendly and explained everything throughly. I have asked him to do some more work for me and would highly recommend him to anyone. Thank you James James returned to do a job that had been planned previously on his 1st visit. He fit new quinetic switches for outside garden lights. When he was here another job came to light. He found a faulty junction box which was not positioned in the correct place and was therefore full of water. He connected a new waterproof junction box on a piece of wood above ground level and re-connected the lights and made everything safe. Due to this problem he was here longer than planned and he still kept the bill to a very reasonable price. He is the ultimate professional who goes above and beyond to complete the job. He is a very friendly person and look forward to him returning to do some more work for us in the very near future. Thanks James
Very friendly and knowledgeable - Is flexible with requests and knew what we wanted when we attempted to explain it. Would use every time.
James Did fantastic job very Professional and friendly too. You can't fault his workmanship will be using james again in near future Thank You again James
I have no hesitation in giving the highest possible reference. I received excellent and prompt service and good advice for the future. Top man, top job.
Sorted my kitchen light problem 2 days before Christmas. Good job. Thank you.
James has been a big help at doing a large job of re wiring the house to help us build our media wall. James a friendly and goes out of his way to help. We would definitely be using him again.
James provided a very prompt and efficient service. He came out to assess the jobs (repacing a bathroom ceilling fan and sorting out a faulty kitchen light) on the day that I called him. He sent his estimate that night and ordered the parts. As soon as they arrived, he contacted me to arrange a convenient time. A few days later, he came and carried out the work. A great job done in a timely, efficient and friendly manner. I wouldn't hesitate to call him again for any future electrical requirements. Thank you, James.
James did a fantastic and quick job replacing our extractor fan. Great friendly service and all for a fair price. I’d thoroughly recommend James in future!
James arrived on time and replaced a double socket in the bedroom. Nice very neat job. We are very pleased. Thank you James
A very pleasant gentleman, a good job well done
Contacted James about the shower isolator switch in my bathroom no longer turning on and off properly and an odd burning smell in there that I thought was coming from the shower itself and would require a plumber to replace the shower. James got back to me the very same day (Monday) and said he would be with me Friday but would get there sooner if he could. James actually came out the next day. He replaced the switch (which was also where the burning smell was coming from as a wire inside had melted), tested it and even tested the electric shower which turned out to be ok, meaning I didn’t need a plumber after all. Once he’d replaced the switch, he even plastered the small hole left from having to reposition it. James really went above and beyond in his work and even stayed over an hour past his finishing time to get the job finished. He also kept the bill low for us. On top of all this, he’s a really nice, genuine bloke. I can’t recommend him highly enough.
I recently had James from Ambiance Electrical who came out to change all the lights in my house, and I couldn't be happier with the service. From the moment I contacted him, the communication was clear, professional and the appointment date was agreed for the next day. He arrived on time, was incredibly polite, and worked efficiently. The quality of his work is top-notch. He made sure everything was perfect before leaving, which I really do appreciate. If you're looking for a reliable and skilled electrician, I highly recommend James from Ambiance Electrical. I’ll definitely be calling him for any future electrical work!
At last I have found a proper electrician. James is brilliant, his work excellent and I trust it. Wouldn't have had to call him if previous electrician had done his job right
Very nice chap , arrived when he said he would . He started work there and then even though it was late ,went out of his way to get some light bulbs , excellent customer service
James was as good as his reviews say! Explained everything, fixed the problem and really reasonable charge, so rare to find a trustable honest trade person like this! Highly recommend, thanks James🤗
I would highly recommend James. He came out to sort a problem with my dining room lighting within a couple of hours. He is a very friendly and genuine man. He sorted my problem very quickly and was not expensive.
I would certainly recommend James as a methodical and genuine electrician. Thank you James
James came on a fault-finding visit to find whatever was causing my electrics to keep tripping. He did a rigorous test throughout the house, checking and testing everything everywhere. He went over and above expectation, working methodically throughout, and left everything in a clean and tidy state. I would certainly recommend him without hesitation.
James was brilliant,was very professional and completed the job efficiently,would recommend.
James was amazing. He came at short notice and helped us choose a better grill oven and installation. Very nice man
A double plug socket in one of the bedrooms which could not be screwed flush to the wall, two 8ft fluorescents in the garage which only worked by stretching up and fiddling with the starter motors, one fluorescent 5ft strip light which came on intermittently in the utility room and LED strip lights under kitchen cupboards which flickered were the tasks I could not attempt myself. On calling in Ambiance Electrical, James came out to have a look that day and immediately fixed the plug socket that had been a worry for some time. He sent us to an electrical wholesaler the following morning to pick up supplies which he had advised and came to fit them the following day. Despite issues arising during fitting he managed to fit everything perfectly and now we can go to the freezer in the garage without having to fiddle with the starter motor, the light in the utility room comes on with a flick of the switch and the LED strip lights come on and stay on. Wonderful, thank you James
Absolutely smashing chap, very polite and friendly, would certainly recommend as James has done a first class job with my attic lights and did a couple of other little jobs that I had no idea needed attention, good all round service really. Very pleased with work.
Excellent service from James. Turned up when he said he would and sorted the job out with good guidance of what was needed. Such a lovely guy and very reasonable. Would definitely recommend for all electrical needs.
James was originally asked to put up a few lights and sort out some switches. He was very professional, obviously a very experienced electrician and tidied up after himself. He also stayed longer than he planned so as to finish the job, due to my light fittings being faulty so I had to go back to the shop and replace them. Really nice guy and would highly recommend if you need an electrician.
James came to attach some new fixtures and plugs into a refurbishment project and was top notch, on time, gave handy advice going forward and went above and beyond, top man, recommend!
Great guy, great work, very knowledgeable and explains everything he's going through. Thorough in the best way, testing etc . Bob on.
From initial contact with James at Ambiance Electrical I was very impressed with James's polite and courteous manner. I had an oven and hob installed by James as well as some electrical work done.James explained everything that he was going to do in detail as well as how long the job was going to take.He is very professional and respectful.He always updated me on what he was doing and treat my home with respect.I would highly recommend James to anyone looking for an electrician and I would definitely be getting in touch with James myself for any future electrical work that I needed doing.
James is very friendly and good at his job. Today is the second time he is doing a job for me. The first time was about 3 years ago.He is great 👍
James responded to an issue with our shower pull cord switch with a fast and very reasonable quote over text, and followed up with a visit shortly afterwards to view the issue. Once he was here James was very friendly and happy to talk me through the issues. He got to work and let me know the details during his repairs, using his excellent knowledge of electricals to repair a few issues which our setup unknowingly had, aside from the main fault, and at one point James needed some new parts so he went and got them himself and returned with the parts to finish up the work. After all the broken parts had been repaired he then did thorough testing of all the components, and finally, he talked me through all aspects of the job and explained what steps I could take for future care. He then asked for an incredibly reasonable extra charge for the parts and I was extremely satisfied with the total price given all the time and care that he put in. In summary, James is a rare instance of a man completely dedicated to his craft, who really cares about his customers, will go above and beyond to make sure the job gets done RIGHT. I cannot recommend him highly enough and in fact, I will be recommending him to everyone I know in the area who needs an electrician. If you're reading this, look no further, this is your man for the job.
Quickly sorted out all our electrical issues. Would recommend.
James came to install a new double socket and change two other sockets. His knowledge and work was excellent and a great guy to deal with. I would definitely recommend him and have kept his details for any future projects.
I ve just had the pleasure to meet James as we needed to do few job.He s an amazing man and he knows what to do. He is very professional and at the same time very polite person.
Found a fantastic electrician in James . Prompt , experienced , trustworthy , extremely tidy and reasonably priced, He did a great job and even my dog liked him . Will be the first electrician I ring when I need more work .
I recently had the pleasure of working with James for electrical issues in my home, and I must say, I am extremely satisfied with the service provided. James responded promptly and efficiently to address the issues, showcasing his professionalism and expertise in the field. Not only did James quickly sort out the electrical faults, but he also provided me with valuable advice that helped me make informed decisions about the necessary repairs and upgrades. His attention to detail and commitment to ensuring everything was in order truly impressed me. I am very happy with the outcome of the job done by James. His exceptional service, quick response time, and knowledgeable guidance have made a significant difference in the functionality and safety of my home. I highly recommend James for any electrical work you may need—his dedication and skill truly set him apart. Thank you, James, for a job well done!
Nice chap, speedy resonse,good electrician, reasonable prices. Difficult to improve upon.
Thank you James, very effecient, did the job that was needed and gave us great advice on our electrics. Couldn't recomend more!
What an absolute Gem of a man! James came to our home to complete a few small electrical jobs...easy yes? No! Every time James completed one job another problem popped up. It soon turned into a bit of a mare. James's attention to detail is spectacular and his knowledge and experience is second to none. Not only did he fix us up and make us safe, he ended up staying an extra day at no extra charge. Amazing! He gave us other contractor details who have also been brilliant. He now feels like a member of the family and if we need any sort of work completing on our house, it will be James we call first. He is like the uncle we never knew we had. Excellent electrician- 5 stars is not enough! Thank you James- Legend!
James takes great pride in his work and making sure the job is done, safe and to a high standard. I called James to replace 7 switches and sockets to which he found inadequate poor and unsafe wiring to some of my switches especially my water heater, which also had tripped the electric. James came back out with Neil to also fit a new thermostat. All the wiring is now safe and new shiny switches and I'm very happy. Would recommend him to anyone.
Very happy with James work around the house.Arrived when he said he would, very honest.Would certainly recommend him.Peter.
James was absolutely brilliant, very professional. He fitted 4 ceiling lights for me all with remote control which i forgot to buy batteries for. Out pops james to his van returning with 8 batteries. He noticed a light switch upside down in one of the rooms he sorted that without me asking. Nothing was too much trouble for him. Super friendly guy and would highly highly recommend him 100%. Thank you James
Weekend call out as all my sockets were off. James did a great job, quick response, found and repaired the fault. Very competitive price.
So grateful to James for coming out on Christmas Eve when all my electric tripped out upstairs. He arrived within half an hour and made the whole place safe, after checking the electrics and finding all sorts of problems. He got the electric back on and tightened all the loose wires left by the previous electrician. Many thanks James Very much appreciated. 5*
Came round after my landlady asked him to sort out my electric problem spent 4 hours redoing the electric for light in back room. Had to rewire it then he checked other lighting for faults found some more nice guy fixed it fast after 2 weeks in a house with no down stairs lighting as power kept tripping out due to said electric fault left house tidy and replaced carpet he had to pull up to get to wire in ceiling below well recommended
What a breath of fresh air. I reached out to James out of area to assist with a managed property for rental. He wasnt able to assist me but passed my details onto another contractor who could and did. Thank you so much, there was absolutely nothing in it for James - hence me offering this review. Thank you!
James is absolutely fantastic. Professional, polite and extremely thorough. Contacted him about a couple of ‘small’ jobs, he gave me good advice over the telephone & then came out to do the work a few days later. The small jobs turned out to be quite big but James kept us fully informed of the work as it progressed. He also shared some knowledge that will help me with a few jobs s he filed in the next few months. All the work was completed to an exceptionally high standard & very competitively priced. Wouldn’t use any other electrician now. I would recommend James to anyone who requires a friendly and highly competent professional electrician.
Fitted main light in living room. Very friendly and polite, would recommend to anyone. Cheers James 😄
James delivered an excellent service in our hour of need! Half our electrics went out and James helped us through this. Fantastic, friendly service. Not only did he sort our problem out but took the time to explain the fault in simple terms. Thanks James 👌👌👌👌
If James can’t fix it, no one can! At a first glance, we had very simple job to fit another double socket in the kitchen, but oh boy it turned out to be a right nightmare. Previous owners really botched up the wiring in the newly built extension so James have tested everything and did not rest until the fault was found and rectified. He was meticulous and thorough with his job. We finally got the socket fitted and not only that, he arranged the plasterer to come out and fill the gap at no extra cost. Very pleased to have found him. Highly recommend.
Excellent service from James very dedicated to his work & very professional would highly recommend Thank you
Excellent service on time gives 100%. Would highly recommend. Regards tracy
James came over urgently in the evening to look at our spotlights which were not working. Secured the property for my mum as the spotlights were dangerous. Looking to use him to get them sorted
Responded promptly, arrived same day of contact. Job included changing switches and sockets. It also ended up with him helping me to stop the burglar alarm sounding!! He went above and beyond. No eye watering bill. I’m sure he ended up out of pocket on my job. Trustworthy and professional.
Delighted with the professional, friendly and cheerful service from Jim whi arrived within the hour of calling me about the job I'd posted. I've had a very high standard repair done to two rather dodgy electrical sockets in my living room and can now watch TV and have the fire on at the same time. Worth the very reasonable price for such a good service. Highly recommended!
Great professional service from Ambiance Electrical. So refreshing to ring an electrician that actually calls you back and promptly too! James was great to deal with; friendly, trustworthy with great decent values, doesn't faff around and cleans up after himself. Strongly recommended. Thank you James.
All work to high standard and good prices. Also a very nice man with a good nature.
I was looking for some one fix my ekectr shower having no power . I rang James around lunch time and explained the the requirements and fixed the time in evening. James arrived at right time and temporarily sorted the issue . Advised me to change shower and once the new shower fitted James will come back to check everything right. In between James advised few other things need to improve on lighting . Thank you very much
Very fast response, problem identified and fixed in a couple of hours. James very professional and highly recommended.

I can't rate James any higher! an absolute fantastic electrician also a great person. From start to finish of the job professional, tidy and precise. I would highly recommend this gentleman for any electrical work to anybody. Thank you again James 👍
I required an external plug socket to be fitted to my property. James responded promptly to give a quote and then was round the next morning to do the work. James clearly takes pride in his work, and this was demonstrated by the high quality work, the spotless clean up and the extra effort he went to tidy up the wiring on my circuit board to make any future work easier
Absolute gentleman who knows his stuff. Arrived when he said he would and went above and beyond. Highly recommend, thank you again,
Helped us out at short notice. Really thorough. Would recommend highly.
James came out at short notice to reinstate the electrical supply of a 92 years old , independent lady. He was friendly and courteous and thorough in identifying the problem. I would recommend him for any electrical jobs.
I rang James in an emergency situation. My electricity was tripping meaning no electric or boiler to heat water. I left a voice mail and was pleasantly surprised when he called me back within 20 minutes. He came out on a Friday afternoon/ evening arrived on time with a friendly manner and worked around my house which is undergoing decorating. James explained everything he needed to do and why then explained what the cause was and what was needed to sort the problem. He gave me lots of advice and also removed a plug socket which was dangerous. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. This gentleman is honest and genuine and I am extremely grateful. I will definitely be using James in the future. Thank you so much James.
Rang this morning he booked me in turned up on time and did an amazing job. I would highly recommend
Completed the work with clear explanation of the shower electrics. Was very informative about light bulbs.
I received a response from James on the same day of contacting him.He visited 2days later as arranged.He was professional and courteous. He had a pleasant manner and was knowledgeable .He didn’t leave until he located the fault in the garage.Highly recommended.Thank you .
I would definitely recommend James from Ambiance Electrical, outstanding work, very polite & tidy, I'm really happy with the work James has done today, will recommend to friends & family definitely.
Jim from ambiance electrical came and helped as part of a full rewire of our property. Always on time, Jim went the extra mile with everything he did, making sure everything was perfect before proceeding and finishing, talking us through any decision points to ensure we were happy. Once he was done tidied everything and got all our carpets back down ensuring no mess was made. A great bloke, couldn't recommend enough! Nick & Emma
Cannot speak highly enough of James. Courteous, friendly and very informative. He was cheap and the work was off a very high standard. Definitely went above and beyond. Highly recommended.
James came out at short notice to repair a faulty downlight, he did a great job and is a very nice, friendly guy. Wouldn’t hesitate to use him again.
James did an excellent job at diagnosing the problem with our bathroom drop lights and resolved the issue on the spot. His services are incredibly good value, didn't ask for a fee for the quote and an all round lovely guy. I'd highly recommend him and he'll definitely be our go-to electrician for any future work.
Fantastic service! Extremely quick despite it being a bank holiday weekend they arrived the same day. They did a very thorough job and ensure everything was a safe as possible. 100% recommend fantastic service and amazing prices.
James came out on a bank holiday weekend at very short notice to make safe numerous faults found after cellar lights and sockets tripped. He is extremely thorough, highly professional and amazingly good value. He is also a really nice person, if you need an electrician, he’s your man, I doubt you’ll find anyone better. We are extremely grateful and happy customers.
James WS excellent and carried out work fast andtested instal no trouble to use again Robin Chadwick
What a wonderful professional man James .He came all the way from Priston. . It was a pleasure to meet him. He is a very genuine person and very honest. Wish all the professional people are like him . He did a good job for me without costing an arm and leg.
James is a great guy friendly and professional couldn't be happier with his work 5 stars from my wife and I. Phil and lorraine
Excellent service . I had requested new under cupboard lights but James advised keeping the ones I had & repaired them. Also made safe an old outside cable which was live! Lovely chap who takes great pride in his work
James came to investigate our oven failure and quickly sorted out what was required. He is very friendly and offered a professional service. We will certainly be using him again.
Very efficient service explained what needed to be done and why was friendly and charges were extremely good would recommend to anyone needing electrical work done would definitely use again.
Jame was an absolute star, he came on a very short notice and waited for about 30 minutes as we were stuck in traffic. He was very professional, explained to us why, how and what caused the power to go out in the house. He fixed the electrics really quickly. He was very kind and friendly and very professional manner. We would definitely recommend him to everyone. Thank you!!!
A five star review is well deserved. A prompt, friendly and knowledgeable job done for us at a very good price and we're already planning the next job we need doing. I can thoroughly recommend.
James was pleasant, extremely thorough and efficient. I can’t recommend him too highly.
Fantastic service with a friendly smile. Definitely recommend him to my family and friends
Excellent service and work. Very friendly and helpful. Thank you...
Our lights failed in the house, I messaged James in the evening and he was out to us the next day. Advised the problem, fixed it on site with new parts fitted and tested. Great service! Have been using James for a while now and will continue to use his services!
I arranged to have James fit some light fittings in our new home based upon his reviews. Very glad I did. He is meticulous and thorough and did a great job overcoming any problems that cropped up with good humour. He is very friendly and trustworthy and I’ll certainly be using him again. Just so you know he likes his coffee not too strong with just milk. Thanks James
Outstanding work completed by James. Very courteous, considerate and professional. We have more works at the house required and will definitely be using James again.
Great service, James arrived on time at 7pm on the day I called him. He did an excellent job, was very knowledgeable, and went the extra step to fix the problem. He was also very reasonably priced, and is a really nice friendly bloke. 5 stars!
We contacted James in between Christmas and new year as we had issues with our upstairs lights tripping. He answered the phone straightaway whereas other electricians do not, and he agreed to assess the issues at our home that afternoon (being flexible around our commitments). He was prompt and professional, and very tidy and organised. He quickly found some electrical issues and agreed to return the next day to complete the work. He was incredibly affordable, did a fab job and went above and beyond, sorting out other issues with lights he found downstairs, as well as fixing a serious fault in the attic which was very dangerous, and tidying loose cables etc. I would highly recommend James to others in need of an electrician and we will know who to call should we need to in the future! Thank You!
Friendly and professional. Would recommend to anyone. Very happy!
James installed 2 new smart light fittings in our kitchen. He did a great job and they look fantastic. In general, service was great, he’s a genuinely nice guy and easy to chat to. No request seems too much. He’s very thorough and does things to a high quality.
I had an emergency at my mums while she's away. rang James. He came out straight away. Even helped with other tradesmen I needed. Very professional. I would 100% reccomend. Thanks again James for your help.
James fitted a new pull-socket switch in my mum's bathroom. He kept me updated and arrived on time. Did a great job. Was courteous and very helpful indeed. A highly recommended electrician who wont let you down. 5 star.
Called James for a broken garden light. He came the next day and fixed problem. Great communication. Reasonable price. Can't fault.
James came out to me on a Saturday afternoon, it was freezing and my boiler had stopped working. With two small children I was really worried. James came straight away, fixed the problem and even helped with another electrical concern. He didn’t even charge a call out fee! I was so grateful and can heartily recommend this company!
Arrived on time. Professional and friendly service. Would highly recommend.
James promptly responded to an add on Rated people and was there the same evening to fix some electrics for my Nan, what a great chap, lovely service, smile on his face all the way through and even dealt with the yappy dog with no issues :-) Cheers James
Contacted James regarding an intermittent fault causing problems with sockets, James called round the same day and then spent hours checking everything that could be causing the issue. fault was found and some poor work from a previous installation was sorted out. I was pleased with the work and price, and valued some suggestions to improve the current electrical set up to avoid further issues.
Excellent service and good job I would recommend Ambiance Electrical s
Would highly recommend using Ambiance Electrical. James is professional and very pleasant to deal with and good value for money. He came to fix a switch at short notice and did a really good job. Would definitely use again.
Great guy James, very knowledgeable
Work so good at my mum's house, we've booked him to come and do works at ours!! Friendly service and great price. Thanks James. Lesley F
Excellent
Thanks James for the work you did for us today at Lower Darwen. You are very polite and professional and did an excellent jib for us. We would definitely recommend you and will be using you again for future work. Thanks again for a 10/10 service. Mark Michaela
James came the same day that I called him on carried out the work in an efficient and quality manner. Reasonable rates too.
Thank you, James, for sorting out the bodge job of the previous electrician! You were very thorough, professional and made it look 100% better and more importantly - safe! I have recommended you already and you will be the first port of call when we next need an electrician. 5*
I had a problem with my electric shower and although he was not available just at the time to do the work, James was extremely helpful talking through the problem with me and suggesting how it could be resolved. I would recommend.
Believe his reviews. James is as good as they say he is! Another electrician let me down and the work needed doing before the plasterer was due on the Tuesday. Called James at 18:30 on the Thursday, came at 20:30 Friday to look at the job, arrived to do the install at 09:30 Sunday. Professional, polite and sincere. Expected to be charged a premium for the short notice/ quick response/ evening/ weekend working but was pleasantly surprised, so I threw a tip in anyway. James is a good person who should be, and is, proud of his work. We won’t be using anyone else now.
James is a very rare find - he is the embodiment of professionalism, in depth knowledge and friendliness. He was very straight forward and honest in his dealings rallying to an emergency created by previous electrician ( with an alleged 4.9 rating) and resolved the problem with dedication and commitment. He is a rare find and while we want to praise him - we dont want him to be too popular as once you try him he will be forever in demand :) Thank You
Excellent service. Quoted for a job, completed the job within 2 days. Definitely recommend
Thank you James. Fantastic service. Came to see the job on the same day and found the issue and fixed it. Very reasonably priced. Worked really well even with my 3 year old asking him lots of questions. Thanks again will be recommending you to friends and family.
James is very professional, trustworthy and reliable
James was Easy, Fast and Friendly. I am young, and I do not know very much about electrics. I enjoyed our chat, and I enjoyed the time he spent to explain about Electronics. James is truly a trust worthy person to handle your electronics- Thank you again. My lawnmower wire was cut
First class service - sorted out a complicated previous electrical issue and installed new sockets and cabling in our summerhouse / home pub. Really pleased with the results
James said he was coming on a Sunday morning which suited me well as I work away all week. His van was immaculate and James was very well presented even down to his "house" shoes. James spent time with me to go through the various jobs and to make sure we got what we wanted and then just cracked on. He made sure that dust covers were used and he was immaculate in everything he did. He even did some extras that had previously been done by other tradesman that weren't up to his standards. Absolutely awesome James, highly recommended.
We had a problem with our outside lighting, as soon as the lights were turned on the electrics tripped at the mains board. > Not knowing how to identify the fault we decided to employ James from Ambiance Electrical. Having read previous reviews we felt confident that he would be able to help us and fix the problem. > James spent around 3 hours on the first visit and seemed focused on finding faulty cabling rather than a faulty light. As he seemed unable to identify the problem he then said he would return the following morning with his friend Neil. > The next day he and Neil arrived and continued to focus on the cabling but this time they disconnected all the lights, removed some secondary switches and isolated the outdoor power sockets. After 4 hours they announced that the best course of action was to replace all the lights, the junction boxes, flanges and insert gel into all boxes. A price would be worked out and sent to us. Before leaving at around 1pm James presented us with an invoice for their exploratory work which he said had been discounted by £50. The invoice was for £280. At 6pm James messaged my wife asking if she was having a problem with her bank transfer as he hadn't received payment. > A few days later we received an estimate for the job which amounted to £1400. I was totally gobsmacked as this was way above what we were expecting. He was also asking for £600 upfront to cover materials (I did a quick costing and estimated around £300 for all materials). After more discussions with James he said he would contact Neil and see if they could get the price down. We eventually received a revised estimate for £750 but this was using existing junction boxes and not fixing lights to wooden stakes. > We still felt this was high and I was thinking it would be better to abandon the idea and install solar lights. I then decided to try a bit of my own testing and one by one I attached a plug to the lights and tested them. Within half an hour I identified 4 lights that were dead and one that immediately tripped the electrics, PROBLEM SOLVED! > A quick trip down to Screwfix to buy 5 replacement floodlights and then half a day reconnecting all lights and lo and behold we had a fully illuminated garden. I have since added another couple of spotlights which are working fine. Total cost, with addition of 2 IP68 in line junction boxes, £130! > Unfortunately I have to give 1 star to post this review. An email was sent to James to make him aware of my intended review.
James is nothing short of amazing. Fantastic service from start to finish. When all other electricians IGNORED me, James did the opposite and came to see my house on the same day at 7pm! The work that was carried out was to an excellent quality, and I would recommend James to anyone. He genuinely cares which is rare to see these days. Thanks again, will be using James as my electrician for many years to come.
James arrive on time, explained what he was doing repaired the main fuse box and charged a fair price. Very happy to have electricity restored quickly and efficiently.
James attended my mums today to do some work on sockets to allow for installation of her cooker He went above and beyond with his service and professionalism nothing was too much He presented with an approachable and cheerful attitude and helped explain things thoroughly We would recommend him 5Star
James fitted 2 new light fittings in my dining kitchen. He was very thorough, friendly, patient & had a close attention to detail. I rang Ambiance Electrical mid afternoon & James came to my house at 5pm the same day to find out what I needed doing. I was impressed at this stage. I also enquired about having an outside light fitting but as there was no wiring & it would be very costly for me James suggested I buy a solar light fitting. He would even come back & screw this into the wall for me. James initially came to just look at the job but once he arrived he actually offered to fit my kitchen diner light fittings while he was at the house. I was absolutely thrilled - it was going dark by the time he left! I cannot recommend James highly enough & will definitely use his services again.
James from Ambient Electrical was absolutely amazing. He came on the same day to fix our light fixture. He was very polite and so professional. I would definitely recommend him to all my family and friends. 5 🌟
James diagnosed a faulty wiring circuit and then carried out the replacement of the external wiring to our shed in armoured cable. In addition, on carrying out his safety checks, he also detected and repaired a further 2 faulty electrical sockets which we were unaware of. I would definitely recommend James to anyone looking for an electrician. He is very professional, makes sure he sees the job through to the end (even came back the following day on a Saturday to finish off his work) and his charges were very affordable. He’s not someone who charges for work that isn’t necessary.
A thorough professional job, suspect his customers use him again and again which is usually a sign of quality work.
We called Jim at 8 am, desperate for power, as our circuit panel had broken due to previous cowboy wiring, where the wires had been poorly installed, causing them to short out and spark. Jim was round at our property that afternoon. Once the issue was diagnosed, Jim went out of his way to get us back up and running. Jim's a great bloke who'll do a good job at a fair price and to a safe standard. Thanks and hopefully we'll be able to use you for our kitchen installation, when that starts.
Absolutely fantastic, James did all work taking photos to show exactly what was done ,promt and friendly. All the work completed was to a high standard and also he was a clean worker.
You could not hope to find a more accommodating and professional man than James. Came at short notice, stayed longer than he had planned and ensured that we were happy with everything once the job was done. Clean , tidy, friendly and so attentive to detail. I would not now want to use anyone else, extremely happy customer 👍
Met James today to take a look at a few jobs at my daughters house who really needed some professional help. James was fantastic, very helpful, experienced and knowledgable and helped us resolve the issues in a friendly manner. He also pointed us to some reputable service providers in the area for other non electrical jobs we need doing. I would thoroughly recommend him. Thanks James
When my son was taking shower tonight, suddenly there was no hot water and power cut off, it was really cold and I don't know what to do. Thankfully, James was able to come out quickly and solve the problem for us. James is professional, nice and patiently explain to my son. Highly recommended.
We can highly recommend James. He was with us within an hour on his day off(!!) and sorted us quickly and at a more than reasonable price. Thanks James
James was on time very friendly and good clean worker and very reasonable rates. I would highly recommend this company will certainly use James again
Fantastic and friendly service, highly recommend for anyone looking for an electrician.
James is very professional, excellent workmanship despite all the complications stayed until the work was done. He even helped get my cat in when she escaped! I highly recommend this electrician
James came out at short notice on a dark, Saturday afternoon when my elderly Uncle had a power outage. He discovered wider issues in what is a very old house and recommended a solution to my uncle, to keep him safe. He was a gentlemen and put my uncle at ease. Highly recommended.
James came to the house to do what he thought was a small half hour job at 2 ish, it’s now 7pm and he’s still here trying to sort out all the faults in this god forsaken house. Can’t praise his efforts enough. Very pleased with everything he’s done for us.
James did an excellent job at sorting out my problem with plug sockets and resolving an associated issue. He explained everything really clearly and went out of his way to ensure the job was finished as soon as possible. Many thanks!
I stupidly drilled into a cable in the wall cutting supply to my boiler and cooker. Rang James and he was on another job but he came as soon as he could. Excellent service, charming chap and very knowledgeable. He likes Rooibos Tea.
James Dawson is a magic electrician and got my power back on Saturday night on his day off when I was expecting guests so saved the day. Thorough, extremely professional and excellent value for money. Would definitely get him back to do other jobs. Thank you James.
Absolute gentleman. Great value. He spent over 7 hours hanging chandeliers and changing sockets throughout my apartment. He is definitely my go to electrician from now on! I would definitely recommend him!
Cannot fault James. Having trouble with Kitchen flourescent light. He came too check it out. Tightened some wires. If it goes again he said call me and will sort you a new fitting. He arrived the time he said. Brilliant. Definitely keeping his number. Thankyou James
James was extremely friendly, professional and knowledgeable. He went completely above and beyond my expectations. James will definitely be my “go to” electrician from now on. He also has great local contacts for other services you might need if you’re not sure who to use. Thanks for all your help and advice James!
James was extremely helpful, he offered a number of solutions to our problem and provided a good temporary repair while sourcing new lamps to provide a long term solution.
Full House Rewire James was very friendly and professional. He arrived when he said he would and was very happy to answer questions I had. The work was carried out in a timely manner and the workmanship on the job was great. James went above and beyond my expectations. I will happily use James again and I would highly recommend him to anyone needing electrical work carried out
James fit two new sockets and changed two old ones, lovely man did a very thorough job would highly recommend
James came at very short notice to restore our electricity supply as we had a major fault.he traced to source of the fault and went above and beyond to help us our.cheers james.
James is a very professional and delightful person, he came and sorted my outside lights with no fuss and did a brilliant job. as seen by the other reviews, i also have nothing but good things to say about James abs his work. 100% would recommend
Their service is second to none. Friendly and kind and you don't have to pay through the nose for the job . I will always use this service God willing
Rang James as my extractor hood had blown. No lights or fan. He came the same day, arrived on time.Job done efficiently and quickly with no mess.Thank you James. Highly recommended with no hesitation.
10/10 quick & great quality job. James is a really pleasant guy who arrived on time and completed the job to a high standard.
James and his assessor Neil from N.A electrical did a very professional and high standard job reviewing the electrical systems of a newly bought house. Very nice people. Will certainly use for any future work and recommend to all for any electrical work.
Very professional, excellent job done will recommend him to all my friends and family and will be using him again in the next two weeks prompt reliable service
We decided to make use of James' services following the amazing reviews we saw. We were not disappointed. He came around 12, the day after we requested callback from him. He worked for the next ten hours, solving the many problems, finding faults and repairing. He did not leave until he ensured everything was safe, we had hot water, and the majority of the house had electricity again. Gave us advice on the problems that couldnt be fixed on the day. His work was extremely thorough and professional. You can really tell how much experience he has, and how much he loves his job. I can't tell you how much I recommend. I certainly know that he will be the one to call if we have any more problems with electricity in the future.
James@ambient electrical arrived at the time he said. He did a thorough job and explained everything as he went along. Vert efficient and experienced. I will use him in the future. Thanks James
James did a fantastic job installing full electrics to my detached garage, a security camera and garden light. He was punctual and professional at all times. The quality of work is of a very high standard and reasonably priced. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone.
We can not recommend James enough. James has more than gone the extra mile to make our electrics safe. He was recommended from a friend as we had just bought a home and came to look at job. We needed two lights fitted and There was a fault in our downstairs wiring and after around 20 hours of a nightmare job which included a socket which had been on fire unknown to us. None of these faults showed in our survey. James made everything safe. We are ever so grateful. Thanks a million James.
James was brilliant. We called him and he came out the same day. He was helpful and got straight to work, managing to fix the problem (that had been broken for 8 months!) within no time at all. He made sure that he checked everything thoroughly and is even popping back to help us with another issue that we didn’t know we had. We would not hesitate to recommend him to others & will definitely use him again if we need assistance. 5+ stars!
Highly recommended to all. Came at such short notice and did an excellent job. Very friendly and will definitely use again. Thank you James for your expertise! Asma
I have used James before for lights in my kitchen, came today replaced 4 light fitting, wouldn't use anyone else. His work is 100% you know your getting a quality service
5 stars aren't enough for James, he worked tirelessly to find an intermittent fault in our lighting, and he patiently explains things along the way so that you feel involved and informed. He did a few other bits and pieces where necessary along the way, making everything safer and tidier. He is a very skilled electrician, and will be honest with you and provide recommendations for future improvements or things that you might need to replace in the next few years. The work he did was for a very good price, considering he came out at short notice and over the bank holiday weekend. Friendly, genuine guy, cannot recommend enough!
Exlennt
Fitted my bathroom switch for shower, came at short notice, Excellent service from start to finish, friendly and polite, work to very high standards, I would recommends him for any job big or small, He did a brilliant job. keep up the good work James
Fuesbox issue encountered first thing in the morning. Electrician came out that very day and diagnosed the problem before returning to work with a boiler engineer and solve our issue. Efficient and effective.
Great professional, prompt response. Would definitely use again!
Great service very happy customer
Great guy, would highly recommend. Thanks for your work!
James was recommended to us, and as such this is our review. Supplied with enough tea or coffee to supply an army 😊 (I was more than happy to supply), we would highly recommend James (without bias) to anyone reading this considering electrical work. He is a hard-working, consummate, skilled electrical professional. His main attributes include his knowledge, thoroughness, trustworthiness, reliability, skill set and tidiness. James worked on a particularly challenging job, but his problem-solving skills are excellent. James not only carried out the work we requested, but James also went over and above that to ensure other sockets in out house were safe, and this eased our minds tremendously (there were wires that needed attention on one of the sockets – (now repaired). He did this almost as a matter of fact, and his own conscientiousness. He left us with advice for future changes we may need to consider, which although were not urgent, furnished us with additional advice which we are taking into consideration to complete, and general electrical work to future consider (without pressure). At no time were we “unaware” of what work was being carried out – James kept us informed all thorough his work. Summing up his work, we could not highly recommend James enough. His work, advice and demeanour are exceptional. On a personal level, he is just a thoroughly great guy to have working in your home – even winning over our rather nervous dog and becoming great friends with him! He is friendly, personable, witty, and interacted with the whole family. Most importantly, we trust our new electrical work fully to be safe and up-to extremely high standards. Thank you James – I will be in touch soon for some more work at my office! The kettle will be on 😊
Highly recommend James we needed our lights and sockets moving, he did an excellent job at a very good price, he took great pride in his work and made sure everything was spot on. I will definitely be using him again. Thanks again James
He came very early in the morning as I had to go out and located the fault and referred me to an appliance engineer and would not take a payment. I will definitely use Ambience for my mothers and my electrical work in the future.
Fabulous service, as a single mother, you worry about getting ripped off, but Ambiance Electrical is completely trustworthy, a happy customer here
I would highly recommend Outdoor plug socket fitted for hot tub. Professional honest advice that prevented another company over charging me and over complicating the job that needed to be done. Very thorough and very happy with job completed. I would use this guy again in a heart beat.
Incredible service from James, such a gentlemen and nice person to have round the house doing the repairs and fixing our problems with the plugs! Very committed and reasonable price. We certainly highly recommend for the job!
James came to do my kitchen renovation, absolute gentleman, exceptional knowledge and workmanship. He ended up staying longer than expected due to other issues he found, they were rectified all at a great price..Thanks Gary Google...
James Dawson did a wonderful job moving sockets in our old kitchen to convert into a family room, rewiring and preparing a dedicated power supply for electric underfloor heating. He was very professional and meticulous, working scientifically, testing and making doubly sure that everything is very safe. He is very pleasant mannered and works patiently . If there is any electrical work in the future I know whom to call. Jacob Joseph, Preston
Friendly and professional, would definitely recommend!
I contacted James to carry out a job as the electricity kept tripping in my house. Let me tell you this guy is amazing and down to earth person from communcating with him to completing the job. I can highly recommend James as he is a person you can trust to get the job done because he is honest and genuine as he showed me what the problem and fixed it straight away. Very rarely do I leave a review but because James takes pride in his work I decided to give him top ratings as he made sure that I was satisfied with his work. Many thanks James and take care.
Absolutely amazing service done ambiance electrical. Really broad knowledge and understanding for his profession, he visited to fully assess task required and determined the best way forward to resolve my issue. Trustworthy, pleasant, cleaned after job completed. Really happy with this business. Will be using him again! Matt Miller at Lytham Quays.
Contacted James as my daughter was having a problem with kitchen sockets tripping. James went round same evening and worked very late to get the problem sorted. Can't reccomend him highly enough, professional, reasonable costs and kept me informed all the way.
Today James came over in our new house to fix some problems left by previous electricians. He did a great job, as usual, and explained the work he did in a clear and accessible way. This is not the first time we call James to help us with electrical problems. He has never disappointed us. it's great to know you can trust him and the work he does!
Fantastic work. Very friendly. Explains everything he is doing and very thorough in testing etc. Would highly recommend and will use again.
Can not recommend James enough he went above and beyond making sure that he got the right fan, meaning that he had to return three times to complete the job.
James arrived on time, was very friendly and did outstanding jobs for me, his work is to the highest standards, does a great job, a very experienced Electrician with a wide knowledge of his trade, i would have no hesitation in reccomending James. 10/10
Excellent service punctual, James went out of his way to help me extremely reliable and friendly 👏 👍 thanks James plus for giving me a few good tips much appreciated 👍
Can’t speak highly enough of James, was very helpful and polite and sorted problem for me, would totally recommend this company with 100% confidence.
Excellent communication from start to finish. James was very thorough and careful. Honest and reliable. Would recommend
James responded to my quote request on a job quote website. He was the only tradesperson who actually bothered to respond. He said he'd come over that day to take a look and arrived on time within a couple of hours of the phone call. Very professional and Covid safe. He spent a couple of hours fault finding and giving advice and his charges were very reasonable. He even sent further advice by text after leaving my house. Highly recommended.
James called out at short notice and did an excellent job at a competitive price. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend James to family and friends.
I found James to be a very professional and conscientious individual. He arrived on time and from our brief conversation, I could tell he was well experienced and knew exactly what to do. I will definitely be referring James to other people and would highly recommend him.
Excellent service from James - he did a professional and tidy job to embed a boiler electrical cable (which wasn't installed properly before). I would happily use Ambiance Electrical again for any future work. Thank you!
James arrived promptly, a very polite and friendly chap. Very professional, explaining everything in detail as he worked. I would recommend Ambiance Electrical to anyone looking for a true tradesman.
James is fantastic! we always have him sort our electrics out! Always happy to help us! 10 out of 10 service. Highly recommended!
James ,very nice gentleman, works efficiently,with care ... would recommend him to anyone ..thanks James lovely job ..
The electrician we had was very polite and professional, fitted our light perfectly and helped fix another problem he found and it was also a very reasonable price
Delighted with the professional service, its hard to get hold of a reliable tradesman but hers we have Ambiance..I would recommend him to everyone. Thank you
Very good worker nice and clean, had some socket put in ,very please with work l have had work done before with james would recommend home to anyone who needs a electrician
A brilliant person who works neatly and is so so professional! Hard to find such people! He was on time and charged appropriately! Thanks James!
James did excellent work installing new sockets in my house recently. He was easy to get on with and very professional in the advice he gave. I would certainly recommend him wholeheartedly to anyone in the area looking for electrical work to be done.
Just had a few electrical installs done by James @ Ambiance electrical. Such a gentleman who takes pride in his work. Very punctual, very clean and tidy and precise. I would class myself as a very fussy customer but had no issues with the finer details James provided much to my satisfaction. All the work was completed to a very high standard with no corners cut or rushed. James even fixed some sockets he noticed were not to a good standard at no extra cost which shows how much pride he takes. Certificates included! Absolute brilliant, friendly gentleman who will be doing my electrics in the future. A true tradesman who I cannot recommend enough. You will not be disappointed.
James fit an outside socket for us, balanced the loads on our fuses and fit a light fitting for us and did an amazing job. He was very knowledgeable, friendly and able to explain technical things to laypeople and was overall just great to have around. I was really impressed with the little things: being interested in my hydroponics project enough to do research and advise on reliability (the pump will need to run 24/7 or all my plants will die), the new stickers on our box, tidying up after the job and leaving the rooms he worked in almost sparkling. Also wasn't bothered by our overly friendly dog following him everywhere and wanting to play, bringing toys. Definitely will recommend James and Ambiance Electrical and will be using this company again.
Prompt, professional, polite, good job done whilst observing precautions for virus issue. Thanks James.
Absolute brilliant bloke did some work for us reasonably priced and 100 honest
James responded very quickly to my request and carried out the jobs efficiently. He made several safety checks to ensure that all was well. James is friendly and professional and spends time getting everything just right. I've now used him for 2 different obs and will not hesitate to use him again.
James was able to fit us in at the spur of the moment to assess and correct a constantly tripping RCD. He is punctual, professional, affordable and a thoroughly nice chap to boot. He explained every step of the work he carried out and fully tested everything after he had corrected the fault. We have had him do work for us before and it always feels he goes above and beyond what is expected of him. He left his work area immaculate too. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anybody.
Had a few jobs done by James / Ambiance Electrical now, and I honestly wouldn't go anywhere else. Excellent workmanship, takes total pride in his work and is a geniunly nice bloke! Can't fault any of the work and the level of testing that James goes to to make sure everything is safe is second to none. Thanks James!
James arrived promptly after calling. He was friendly and courteous & was thorough diagnosing an unusual electrical fault. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending James’ work.
James came to my house to fit what we thought would be a simple put and plug in job. Oh how we was wrong 2.5 hours later he did absolute amazing job! I will definitely be calling on James for any more electrical work this I need for sure. Thank you so much ☺
Professional, reliable and affordable electrician who completes work to a very high standard. Really impressed with this thoroughly nice chap. He explained everything he was doing in a detailed way, was polite and friendly. He even brushed up after himself. I cannot recommend James enough, I’ll certainly be using Ambiance Electrical again.
My daughters bedroom had a few extension leads round the room, which isnt really safe. James sorted a few sockets in her bedroom with usb charges. The room looks so much neater and most importantly is safer. The job was done efficiently and everything was tidy and clean when finished. Reasonable price too. Would highly recommend
James and neil, was highly recommended for a full re wire of an 1860s house, they came for an inspection prior to having works started, they checked our electrics throughly and showed us how dangerous they were, week later they came and carryed out a full rewire from top to bottom, they was on time every day and stayed late on some nights too There dedication and comitment to there works is a credit to them, service with a smile and also very compitent..... I now feel safe in our home and have full electrics re installed, would certainly recomend both of these chaps to anyone. There knowledge in there game is exceptional.....
I employed James to install my oven and some electric switch sockets which due to previous poor electrical work from another electrician turned out to be far more complicated than expected. A job that was expected to take 1-2 hrs turned out to be an all day job but James dealt with all the problems in a thorough & professional way . At the end he gave a very fair quote for the extra work he did and I would definitely employ him again .
This is the first time l have used Ambiance Electrical Preston. James came highly recommended by my Neighbor. James contacted me too arrange a visit to give me an estimate which l was pleased with and gave James the go ahead to do the jobs. The works commenced @ an agreed date and time. On the day the job started, James arrived on time and set too. All electrical work was carried out and tested, too a very high standard and an explanation was given in detail of all works done. James cleaned all mess up and was polite throughout his time at my property. l am extremely happy with all works carried out and would highly recommend him Thank you James Mandy Mc
I got James out to fix my bathroom fan that had broke. He was on time, reliable, reasonably priced and he takes alot of pride in his work. I would defiantly recommend him.
James was easy to contact via his mobile, arrived promptly and did an excellent job considering this is an old house, He gave me some very useful tips and was very good value for money. I would happily recommend him for all electrical jobs.
