From the first contact with Priory Electrical until now the service has been excellent. I saw the local firm advertising their solar panel installations on Facebook and after checking out the references, got a competitive quote from the company. The communication was good and the sub-contracted scaffolders were great too, very polite and respectful of my property. The 11 panel installation was completed in a day, although there was a minor fault which was rectified early the following day. Paperwork for the installation is now coming through, a few days after completion on site and I’m now waiting for Northern Powergrid to complete their part of the paperwork. 10/10 service Priory Electrical.
The instalation of my 9k battery whent great very happy
Amazing customer service even after I sent over a £2k deposit I quickly got it back after a unfortunate change in circumstances meant I needed to cancel my installation. All handled quickly and professionally. I will 100% recommend Priory and will happily go with them for my solar installation... if they have me. Thanks to Caitlyn, Kevin, and Graeme for their support when I needed it.
Installed solar panels. Battery bank and car charger point. After several messages back on forth over my requirement. My house is nearly all electric so high loads. Came up with a plan. I am not the easiest customer. They worked well and delivered on the plan. I have left the review until i can coment on how it has operated for a couple of months. Must say over the moon. Since fitting my house has run on solar along plus charged my car to do 5000miles. Admittedly over summer. But just what i was after. Very please great team on site and in office Thanks paul
I chose priory electrical for solar and home battery installation. They arranged the scaffolding which was put up the day before and removed the day after by a quick and courteous team. The installation was quite a big job with 16 panels, inverter, battery and emergency backup box all installed in one day. The team were hard working, polite and cleaned up after themselves, the work was carried out to a high standard and was neat and tidy, with all the systems clearly explained and professionally certified. I've deducted one point as while the company is great overall, I found the sales process a bit clumsy due to rearranged appointments, unprepared for a lack of mobile signal and overall a bit high pressure wanting me to sign on the day. Also for a small delay in receiving the paperwork so I could start the process of being able to receive payment for my export tariff.
Efficient and friendly solar installation
Knowledgeable, efficient and very tidy. Not often you get all three plus the install team were friendly and polite. Would definitely recommend Priory.
Priory Electrical installed my Sigenergy solar PV system, battery storage, gateway and EV charger, and overall I'm very happy with the quality of the installation. The workmanship is excellent, everything has been installed neatly, and the system has worked flawlessly since day one without any issues. My only criticism is the communication before the installation. There was some confusion over the location of the underground duct, which resulted in it being dug in the wrong place. Unfortunately, this meant a longer than necessary cable run along the side of the house, which isn't as tidy as it could have been. I also tried to speak with Kevin on two occasions to discuss the duct location before the installation, but unfortunately never received a call back. Despite that, the installation team did a great job, the finished system performs exactly as expected, and the overall standard of workmanship is excellent. If communication before the install was improved, this would easily have been a 5-star experience. I'd still happily recommend Priory Electrical to anyone looking for a quality solar installation.
Very professional Kept in touch all the way through the process. Answered any questions that I had quickly. Would recommend
Priory made a very good job of our recent solar installation. Everything happened exactly as they said it would at the times arranged and the lads worked really hard to get it all done in a day. They took time to explain the app to us before leaving and now it’s all working fine. Thank you. Definitely recommend!
Very professional and prompt service. Thank you Caitlyn for your help and assistance. Highly recommend
Had solar panels and battery installed Salesman was helpful and knowledgeable installation was performed in 1 day with no mess or problems very happy with the system would recommend priory as a good local business
Excellent service, great product. Really nice team of folk, including the fitters. No push, no hassle.
I first enquired and they were great at recommending what I needed and also a better tarrif to compliment my set up for a home charger and an EV. The lads arrived on time, were super helpful anf kept to the quoted work too. Couldn't recommend them enough
We had some sockets removed and a new one installed. Having accepted the quote, we were booked in within 48 hours. The lads were polite, clean working and did an excellent job. We could not have asked for more and would have no hesitation in recommending Priory.
From start to finish, everything was excellent. Timing was also excellent. The system itself is performing really well, and we look forward to huge savings. I would not hesitate to recommend Priory for your solar needs.
Excellent communication in the run up to the installation and on the day the fitters did a brilliantly efficient job. All cables hidden and finished within a day. Couldn’t recommend enough.
Fantastic service from start to finish at a very competitive price. 12 solar panels with 18kwh battery, installation took just 1 day working better than we imagined, staff very helpful answering all our questions. Would recommend priory electrical 100%
Had solar panels and a battery system installed to an existing set of panels. The team arrived and completed the work in one day with everything working as advertised and the team talked me through the new battery app. There was a small issue however things happen and you should judge the company by the way they handle the issue ( a broken slab( nothing to do with the solar system)). At 6/30 the next morning I get an email from the owner explaining how he was going to resolve it, later that same day one of his team arrived with a new slab and fixed it. You cannot ask for better than that and makes a welcome change to some service you get from some companies. I have to say a massive thank you to all the team at priory and would whole heartily recommend this company for any electrical / solar work you want done.
I asked for a quote for solar installation. Graeme attended my property and spent time discussing options and answering my many questions. He was very patient, polite, professional and honest. The quote provided was also very reasonable. 👍
Very professional job from start to finish. We were kept well informed by phone and emails at all stages of the installation. All the craftsmen and office staff were extremely polite, friendly and prompt. No mess, every thing was cleaned and rubbish removed. Great price, fast installation and good after sales service.
A brilliant service right from the start from the sales person right through to the guys who did the scaffolding. 12 Panels a Battery and EV charger. All installed in a single day, and the scaffolding was up and down before we knew it. I would highly recommend Priory Electrical
Just had battery storage fitted. Price was competitive and the service from everyone I spoke with from quote to survey admin and installation was excellent. Work was tidy and efficient. No issues at all and happy to recommend.
Priory Electrical NE installed 12 Solar panels and an 18kwh sigenergy battery. Installation was very quick (1day), professional and polite , nice bunch of lads. Communication with the office great . System great
Good comms from Sales to install , very responsive , nice tidy install and shown how everything worked . Highly recommended
Had these folks for a electrical check and replacement lights. Two lads who came so professional and tidy. On quick inspection we were informed that a full check was not necessery which saved us a lot of money but we visited their office afterwards to purchase 2 smoke and 1 heat alarm. Brilliant service and receptionist were lovely. Great company.
Just have solar panels fitted The company were professional from start to finish The lads on the job were polite and a credit to the company I would highly recommend this company to anyone that's looking at getting any electrical work done
We have used Prioy for several domestic electrical jobs, including a large solar panel and battery install. They have always been respectful, have excellent workmanship, a really good product and all at a realistic price and time scale
Outstanding Customer Service – Truly Above and Beyond I can’t speak highly enough of Caitlyn at Priory Electrical NE Ltd. Her customer service was nothing short of exceptional and genuinely refreshing in a time when that level of care is, sadly, quite rare. I was having an issue with a light bulb that simply wouldn’t sync with its remote, and from the very start Caitlyn gave me her full attention. She was incredibly patient, took the time to properly listen, and showed a real willingness to research the issue so she could fully understand the problem rather than rushing to a quick or generic answer. Her logical problem-solving skills and determination to help were far beyond my expectations. What stood out most was the value she placed on giving her time. She never made me feel like an inconvenience and was completely focused on finding a solution, going the extra mile with genuine care and professionalism. It was clear that helping the customer wasn’t just part of her job—it’s something she truly cares about. If you have any electrical issues, I would wholeheartedly recommend reaching out to Caitlyn. Her dedication, patience, and desire to help set a gold standard for customer service, and I know you won’t be disappointed.
Excellent service from start to finish, very knowledgeable about the product turned up on time the lads new what they had to do finished in good time left everything clean and tidy no hesitation in recommending this company
Just had a solar and battery system fitted from Priory. 24 panels and 20kw sigenergy system. Scaffolding was up less than a week, we were booked in for 2 days installation but weather was great and the team cracked on and got it all done in a day. All the lads were extremely polite and hard working. Will definitely use them again for any additional work 👍
Kev and his team provided a seamless service from start to finish. 12 solar panels and a givenergy 9.5kw battery all installed in a day. After a little fettling solar and battery are performing perfectly. Fingers crossed for some good sunshine. I would highly recommend Priory Electrical and will be using them again.
If you are after a Solar/Battery Backup System look no further. Excellence from start to finish. Well priced, exceptional communication throughout the whole process. Top quality installation. Highly recommended 👌 and would definitely use them again for anything electrical/solar required in the future. Big thank you to Kevin, Graeme and the Gang.
Kevin and the team installed a 19 panel solar system with a Tesla battery for me in a day and a half - even with terrible weather conditions. From starting with Graeme to understand what I needed and organise a quote to the system being switched on, I am unable to fault anything. The literal army of guys were organised, methodical, organised and tidy. Totally spot on!
Priory have just installed a solar energy system for us with inverter, battery and smartphone app. Whole process very professional with lots of information and help from the start. Installation was all done in a day with a team of four. Generating power from day one. Used Priory because they had done electrical work for us before, they're a local firm and we trust them. Very neat and tidy. Cables and wiring all hidden. Thanks for good job.
We had a solar and battery system installed. The installation has been completed to a high standard and they were able to accommodate some more unusual specifications than we had requested. Very happy with Priory Electrical.
Kev and his employees at Priory did a brilliant job of installing our solar system. From the initial appointment to discuss the job, through to the installation being completed was around two weeks. They were very competitively priced and the aftercare has been excellent. If you are looking for a solar installation I would highly recommend Priory Electrical. Having it done by a local company has given me massive peace of mind.
Absolutely fantastic service and completion of our Solar Panels. Kevin, came in person to our home, explained everything that was going to happen etc, the price was excellent and agreed a sum. Arrived nice and early on the day and they never stopped until after 6pm. We would highly recommend this company would give 6 stars
Secretary who answered the phone was unbearably lazy as would not take a message for her boss to call us back. So disappointing to have poor staff that hinders a business from prospering
I needed help with a minor problem with an external security light. Even though this is their busiest time of the year they attended within 24 hours, did the job and never asked for payment. Would recommend to anyone.
Quick respond - great service - great job will most definately use again and recommend.
Had my meter moved to an outside box and cannot fault the service from Priory. On the day of the move, had a few issues from the other contractors and Priory came straight out to fix, going above and beyond! Brilliant service and very friendly with excellent communication, would not hesitate to use again!
Had an electrical issue with the lights in the garage which were tripping the fuses. Rang Priory at 9am and by 11am I had a team of three very professional and friendly electricians turn up. They identified issues with the old wiring, sorted the lights and even added somethings for me at the drop of a hat! They also tidied up after themselves so it was if they weren’t even there. The bill came in the post a few days later and was very reasonable for the work that got done! I’d give them 6 stars if I could! Definitely adding them to the list of tradesmen to keep at hand.
Great service, really quick and sorted everything no problems
Had this firm around twice in last mouth (for differant jobs ) the Lads were great , sorted probs streat away no mess .thanks
I have used Priory Electrical over 10 times and each and every time the job has been done in a professional and courteous manner. The staff are always on time, nothing is too much trouble and the place always left as tidy as I have ever seen any tradespeople leave it. Drilling ceilings with pots to catch plaster, dust sheets everywhere and rubbish taken with them! Outstanding every time.
I can’t thank Priory Electric enough. We were flying to Ecuador in a week and our Lightwave lights broke Wednesday night. . Desperate I rang and spoke to Caitlin who immediately arranged for Alex to come over that day to have a look. He diagnosed and we came up with a plan. Following Monday fitted new relays hub and switches. Even came back Tuesday to iron out a last little fault. We fly tomorrow. House sitter is in. Lights are working. Amazing. Caitlin and Alex and Priory have really saved me from having a heart attack. They made a highly stressful experience a lot less so.
On several occasions it has been closed when it advertised as open
Excellent advice given as I needed to change a faulty fluorescent tube for a modern LED assembly. Many thanks.
We've had Priory Electrical NE Ltd. round twice since we bought our house, first time to replace the circuit board with a modern system, clear up a lot of miscellaneous redundant wires, and fit a few extra plug sockets, second time to move some light switches and clear a few additional wires that had come to light during other renovation work. Both times they were available quickly and did a great job. We'll absolutely come to them again if we need any electrical work done around the house.
Lovely friendly service. Got exactly what I needed.
We had a full socket re-wire. It was quickly, professionally + cleanly done. They tidied up after themselves + we were happy to leave them alone in the house. We would recommend them to anyone who needs anything from small jobs to full re-wire .
We had Priory Electrical NE Ltd do some miscellaneous jobs including fitting sockets, installing outside lights and fixing small issues identified in an electrical safety check. I was impressed by the service. The quotes were reasonable, communication good and work carried out promptly and professionally. The two individuals who did they work were polite and friendly and left the house clean and tidy after completing the work. I was very happy with the overall service and would use them again.
Got everything great staff
Highly recommend Priory Electrical. We have used them 3 times now for indoor and outdoor, emergency and routine work. Professional and efficient
Needed my sons electrical PAT testing before university. Took them into store and were done within a few days and because we didn't have to pay a call out fee, the cost was very reasonably. - very happy with service
Very professional service. Highly recommended.
Seen Kevin Friday night with cooker wiring problem job done next morning excellent service and good price thanks for quick responce
Got Kevin and the team to put up a ring device, they gave me a honest quotation. When they can they told me what they were doing and every step they did they inform me Very professional and would recommend them
Excellent and professional work completed. Replaced all our old bedroom ceiling spot lights for safer LEDs. Also replaced garage strip lights, sorted dodgy wiring out etc. Highly recommend
A trusted service. Friendly, they completed works installing supply to coal shed, would trust again and definitely recommend as a hard working trader.
Great team re wired my top two floors in a day, good prices. When later I had a problem came really quickly to sort it. Really pleased with them.
Kevin has done a few jobs for us now, installing extra sockets, soffit and coach lights to the exterior as well as EHIC inspections. Trustworthy & reliable company. Would recommend.
Just had Priory come and repair a boiler, Hob and PAT test for a tenants flat. Called them on the Wednesday and by Monday all parts replaced and fixed. Tenants really happy and impressed by their professionalism. Quotations reasonable and good value. Will be using from now on.
Excellent electrical company. The team are extremely courteous and prompt to work. Great at making suggestions and recommendations if asked. Leave the place immaculate after work is completed. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend and will only use this company going forward for any domestic or business electrical work. 5*
Very prompt and punctual. Reasonably priced and did a good job. Were accommodating enuf for some additional requests. Overall I would say very reliable.
I had great service from this company when I needed my TV mounted onto a wall with the wires hidden and aerial repositioned. They arrived bang on time and the engineer was really helpful and the charges were reasonable. They were very prompt, personable and professional. I am very happy and I will surely recommend their services to all.
