R Telfer Electrical Ltd is repeatedly described as professional, with reviewers calling Richard and his team polite, friendly and knowledgeable. Customers mention jobs such as full rewires, consumer unit upgrades, solar panels and batteries, car chargers, safety inspections and linked alarms. Several reviewers say the team turned up when they said they would, kept to time, and left the property clean and tidy. One reviewer says an estimate did not cover travel time and office work, the final bill came in above it, and Richard then reduced the bill to fit their budget. Another reviewer praised the work installing garage power, a consumer unit and new kitchen and bathroom lighting.
Richard, Davey, Morgan & the team did a super job installing power to the garage, upgrading the consumer unit, replacing bathroom&kitchen lighting. Would highly recommend.
Richard arrived, through a personal recommendation, as an emergency call out. He was very polite and took time not only to make a diagnosis but also to explain the problem competently and in a way that I was able to understand easily. Although he was unable to rectify the problem immediately, owing to obvious pre-arranged commitments, he promised he and his colleagues would come back the following afternoon. He telephoned later that evening, just to make sure I was ok (having had to leave me without any electricity for safety reasons) which I appreciated. True to his word, Richard came the following afternoon with Jordan and Morgan - two delightful young gentlemen. Having worked through the problem together, Richard left me in the very capable hands of these two young men. Within a couple of hours, my electricity was restored and everything had been left exceptionally clean and tidy. Richard returned just after 7.30pm (on his way home after his last job of the day) to ensure that everything was working and I was entirely satisfied. I would have no hesitation in recommending Richard, Jordan and Morgan. All three gentlemen are exceptionally polite and competent. They are professional in all that they do and I could not have asked for any better service. All I can say is - many thanks!
Recently had our electrics inspected and brought up to date by this excellent company. We were very impressed by the electricians' professionalism, pleasantness and expertise evident throughout. Would recommend highly.
Richard is a super electrician, very professional and always willing to help - even with the smallest jobs. I can fully recommend him.
PV array and Car charger installation
Have always found Richard to be very professional, knowledgeable, work to an extremely high standards and be very respectful of the property. He has completed solar installation and regular EICR's at the property. Solar installation was completed to personal spec and MCS certified to enable FiT's. He will take the time to go through projects and explain, easily, any possible issues that may occur. Honest, trustworthy and reliable. Very reasonably priced and highly recommend.
Richard and his apprentice Morgan upgraded my consumer unit and provided me with an electrical safety certificate. He installed LED downlights in 3 bathrooms, after informing me that the halogen lighting was a fire risk on the PVC ceilings because they heat up. He installed linked alarms throughout the house to detect smoke, heat and CO. This work was to comply with safety legislation prior to tenants renting the property. The work was completed to a high standard. Richard worked hard to complete the jobs in a timely fashion and dealt with some unexpected faults he discovered whilst working. Prior to commissioning Richard, I had asked for an estimate of his labour costs, because my budget was limited. The final bill exceeded the estimate, and I challenged him. Richard explained that his estimate had not included travel time and additional office work. This was beyond my allocated budget, and I was worried. Richard was fair and reduced the final bill in accordance with my budget. This misunderstanding was sorted to my satisfaction, and Richard took a hit. There is a lesson to be learned here for both parties - make sure estimates and expectations are transparent.
Excellent service from Richard and his team making my domestic rewire as smooth as possible. Worked to time and to budget in a professional and supportive manner. Highly recommend them. Thank you so much.
Excellent service installing solar panels, battery and gateway. Richard used an independent consultant for on site survey and design, and a roofer to secure the panel rails. Very professional and happy to recommend.
Richard and team were superb. On time efficient and very nice to have in our home. Would thoroughly recommend them to anyone. Brian Robinson (Chatton)
Great service from Richard, committed businessman professional electrician whom promptly followed up on our enquiry, following on with speedy estimate and works all within timescale to complete our new house in Coldstream.
Richard and Paul organised the supply and fitting of our solar panels, as well as the scaffolding and roofer. They were careful, thoughtful and thorough with a minimum of fuss and mess. And the price was very competitive. The battery and equipment look very neat and don't take up much space. The panels look fine. We highly recommend R. Telfer. Call them first.
Fully rewired my stone cottage. Excellent and efficient service., Nothing too much trouble. Very happy with the quality of work, and the prompt, reliable team.
First class efficient prompt service
From our first contact with Richard regarding the full rewiring of an old stone property, we were impressed with his thorough and professional approach to all aspects of the job. He kept us fully informed of progress, never failed to turn up when he said he would, completed the job on time and kept strictly to the quoted price. Thank you again Richard to you and your team for an excellent job. Rob & Jane.
Friendly, professional, responsive, trustworthy and knowledgeable service. High recommend R. Telfer Electrical
Richard came in to sort out what we thought was a small job. He identified a more major problem and was happy to stay and sort it out. We are really happy to have found this excellent company as we don’t live nearby and so rely on good quality tradespeople. Richard is definitely one of those.
Used Richard on several occasions to sort electrical issues at our holiday cottage. Being at a distance, we've found Richard a trusted and professional person to do business with.
I would highly recommend R. Telfer. It took no time to arrange a date for the electrical repairs and the work on the day was done with maximum efficiency, with explanations and advice provided, all in a very friendly manner. Thank you!
Definitely recommend this company. They repaired my father's central heating thermostat and were prompt, efficient, thoughtful in dealing with an elderly person and entirely trustworthy. Will certainly use them in the future.
Fantastic service, incredibly professional, on time, cleared and cleaned at the end of every day. Can't say enough good things about them.
