Greenwaves Electrical covers both planned jobs and emergency call-outs. Many reviewers describe full or partial rewires, fuse board replacements and socket work, and say the team explained what was being done, worked neatly and were friendly and polite. Several reviewers say Liam or the team turned up within an hour or so of an emergency call. Some reviewers also report clear communication, prompt attendance and competitive quotes. On the other hand, one reviewer says Liam failed to attend an EICR on two occasions, gave a quote lacking detail and did not answer follow-up questions, and other reviewers report missed appointments, unfinished work, a call-out that did not resolve the fault and a paid job that was never carried out.
Having read the other 5 star reviews here, I am disappointed that our experience of Liam and Greenwaves electrical has not matched up to others. We asked him to carry out an EICR on a property we were looking to buy and he failed to turn up on at least two occasions to carry out the review. In his defence, he claims that someone rang him and asked him to move the appointment, but was unable to provide us with a name or to get any further information about who this was. He did not let us know that he was moving the appointment. He did ring us to talk through the findings, but the subsequent quote provided for the work was lacking in detail and he did not reply to any of our questions about what needed doing. I am sorry to say that I would not use Greenwaves again.
Greenwaves Electrical Ltd are incredible! We thought we needed an upstairs rewire so contacted Liam and the team. From the start, communication and professionalism was at the forefront. It transpired we needed a whole house rewire which was scary to hear but we were in very safe hands. Jon, Henry and Brad were efficient and super respectful of our home while still providing the best service. We would highly recommend and if needed would definitely use again!
Fantastic service. Lovely man, really knowledgeable. 5 stars. Wouldn't go anywhere else.
Amazing service from Greenwaves planning and executing a full rewire on our run down new house. Liam planned the job with me and took into account that we didn’t want anything fancy. Jon, Henry & Brad turned up on day 1 half an hour early with an amazing energy. They went through the house with a fine tooth comb to make sure that we had covered everything and future proofed the system. The whole week was seamless, Jon’s advice and check ins to make sure we were happy with any changes made decision making very easy. All 3 of them went above and beyond at every step, absolute dream team!! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone who wants a good honest job doing. Thank you all.
Made me wait for one week and did not bother turning up on the Friday they were supposed to. When I call I was told they are running late the next day I called I was told I will receive a call back to reschedule I am still waiting a week later. Not fair
One of the worst people you should consider to call for emergency job. I called Green waves to attend the emergency job my house on 21st july 2026, he came and tied the cable, left things unfinished, charged £180 for the visit. When I asked why he was not replace the switchboard, he said he need isolater, which is already available there. I can say he could not handle the job professionally. One of the worst experience we had with wrong choice.
Excellent service would highly reccomenf
What an excellent professional job done, I 💯 recommend these guys not a wire to be seen, from fusbox in centre on house to garage thats out the back, on time, excellent value for money. Feeling extremely satisfied
We had an issue in that our sockets were tripping regularly, so Liam and Brad came out to do an inspection. After a very thorough and professional inspection, they reluctantly informed us that our 1960’s wiring was breaking down, and therefore we needed a full re-wire and arranged for Jon, Brad and Henry to come in and carry out the work. In the meantime, he made everything safe and changed our fuse box, which a previous electrician had left like a rat’s nest to a very clean and professional box. The full re-wire was not something we were looking forward to as we imagined channels being cut down all our walls, and weeks of fixing the walls and repainting. This was all allayed in the first hour with Jon, who came up with ways to minimise the damage to walls whilst still giving us a full re-wire, and even some additional sockets. Jon’s experience and his implementation design was really amazing. John, Brad and Henry then proceeded to complete the work in the timescales they had given and did an incredible job. Throughout the process all the team were very polite, humorous and friendly as well as obviously knowing their stuff. I would recommend Greenwaves 100% of the time.
Liam came round to look at the job and was friendly, professional and explained things clearly. He turned up when he said he would, was communicative and invoiced promptly. He also managed to book us in three days later which was exceptional. John who came to do our first fix was much the same, friendly, professional and VERY clean. He tidied up after himself every night and made good of the mess he had to make to the point that I didn't even realise he'd taken the floorboards up and replaced them! We will be looking at using Liam and his team again in a fee months whe we start our next round of renovations.
Superb, one of the best experiences we've had with any trade. A very competitive quote from Liam and work started within two weeks of receiving it. John and Henry were quick workers, very neat and tidy, with John's experience helping guide us on how best to commission our pair of log cabins. We can now finish them off, hiding the neatly clipped cables, just as we'd agreed.
I highly recommend Greenwaves Electricals. They did the electrical work in our extension and a full rewire of our house. They carried out all the work efficiently and in good time. This was all done for a reasonable price. Thank you to Liam and his team.
We made an emergency call to Liam last night as half our sockets stopped working - he turned up within an hour and was incredibly courteous, friendly, easy going and helpful, and resolved the issue for us. We were so impressed with him that we're rebooking him to do another job next week. Highly recommended.
I asked Greenwaves to completely rewire my late mother's house before it goes on the market. The house being listed presented many challenges, but they were all overcome, Liam always listened to my concerns and ideas and it was a pleasure to work with him. I was really impressed by how tidy, pleasant and courteous they all were and the respect they showed to the house. His experience and professionalism are a great credit to him and his team. I would highly recommend Greenwaves to anyone.
Really impressed. John explained every step, made me aware of what was going on and why different things needed to be done. Felt very at ease and will definitely be coming back to you guys if we ever need and electrician again!
Liam was both friendly and prompt in assisting me with my request for a last minute electrical inspection and he then followed that with doing a superb job of the work that was required, he pointed out to me issues caused by a cowboy electrician and he explained clearly what needed to be done to rectify things make the electrical system safe. I genuinely can’t recommend him enough and would definitely call him again if I need more work done! Many thanks again Liam! 👍👍
1st Class experience. Liam, Jon and Henry were all incredibly professional, in work, help and advice. Jon and Henry explained everything they were doing and were both very clean and tidy as they worked a real pleasure to have in the house. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend their services.
Couldn’t recommend this company enough quick efficient service, with great communication
Now honestly I’m not blowing my trumpet when I say I’ve had 39 houses in my life time. It’s just so you can imagine how tricky it can be at times to find people to work on your behalf, who actually do the work, & not run off with your money or who haven’t completed the work. I’ve had a few of those in 50 years! Recently my electrics blew, spoke to a neighbour who said he’d heard good things about Greenwaves, “yeah really?” I said! Doubting Thomas, who moi? So contacted Greenwaves, the boss Liam arrived very promptly, sorted out what needed to be done, & John & his apprentice son Henry soon arrived to work. Wow was I impressed? By cracky YES! Absolutely nothing was too much trouble, & they worked non stop like slaves! Had a new mains circuit board installed, so there now is no longer an immediate danger of being burnt to a crisp! Recommend these guys? Very professional…Absolutely, no doubts, no hesitations. In fact it’s a shame I haven’t got anything else to fix as they arrived soon after & did that too! Am I impressed? Hell yes! Thanks guys. Victoria.
We had a problem with our household fuse box. Liam from Greenwaves came to have a look and said we needed a new box which was plain to see once he showed me the existing wiring and damage to the fuse box . A couple of days later Jon and his Son Henry came to do the work and were a pleasure to have in our house. Jon kept us informed as to what he was doing all the way through the fitting and his apprentice Son Henry gave a hand. Jon was great to converse with and Henry was polite and friendly and did his share of the work. When the job was finished the wiring was neat and tidy and it was great to find a tradesman who was so particular with the quality of his work. We both have no hesitation in recommending Greenwaves.
Excellent service. I live away from the property and I would not want to go anywhere else. Liam and Jon are both great, are clear with any problems. Amazing company!
We have been so happy working with john and Henry from greenwaves on our loft extension - they are friendly, efficient, skilled and leave the place really tidy. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend
Wow! The whole experience was fantastic. I'm quite a distance from the Company but needed an emergency electrician and they still got here within the hour. Liam was extremely polite, professional & understanding. The problem was resolved very quickly and all was well. I would highly recommend Greenwaves Electrical to everyone. Top Job - thank you. 04.12.2025
I'm so thankful to Liam! I had an issue with a plug in my kitchen which was tripping my fuse box, Liam called me super fast after I raised a query of what could be causing it and had 2 of his team - Jon and Henry around my house within a couple of hours that same day! Jon fixed the plug but also found my fuse box needed replacing urgently as it was a fire risk. They fit my new fuse box a couple of days later! I cannot fault their service at all, Jon explained everything I needed to know but was still happy to answer any questions I had on the phone over the next few days to help put my mind at ease. Everyone is extremely knowledgeable and friendly, I would highly recommend using Liam and his guys for any electrical needs you have!
We had outside light and electrics installed. Very impressed with the service provided. Would highly recommend.
Great response time and overall experience. Would definitely use their services again
Called Liam very late in the day to help with an emergency at my holiday home, and to my amazement he went out after only getting back from work himself and 10pm and fixed the issue ! I’m so grateful for this and couldn’t reccomend him enough! 100 % brilliant service ! Thank you so much Liam!
Excellent service. Came round with 12 hours of call! I contacted in the evening and he was there 9am the next day. Found and sorted the problem. Gave me a price for other work as requested. Very happy.
Fantastic service for an emergency call out, professional, pleasant, with job completed. Happy customer
Brilliant service from the guys who came round today! Showed them what I needed done and in the hour - it was all sorted! Deffo recommend ⭐
Liam was professional, friendly, and efficient. He completed the job to a high standard at a very fair price, and took the time to explain what we might need to consider for future work. He also gave us some helpful advice about what to keep an eye on going forward, which was much appreciated. I’ll definitely be calling him again for any electrical needs, and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to others. Thanks again, Liam!
Liam has just done a job for us, excellent service, we will definitely be using Greenwaves again.
Quick efficient service. Liam sorted the problem & told us the root cause. Very friendly & helpful, would recommend. Thank you 👍
Brilliant service from Greenwaves! They replaced our fusebox quickly and professionally, with minimal disruption. Liam and Jon were both friendly, reliable, and tidy—highly recommended!
Excellent service. Work done to a very high standard and as discussed before starting . Work done with minimum disruption and all cleaned up on completion. Liam is an honest friendly professional who makes you feel comfortable with the work required and done . I would highly recommend this service
Amazing work from Liam and crew. They came in at the last minute and worked tirelessly to get our lighting up and running. Thank you Liam for some amazing work, we'll be using you again for sure
What a great company! Came across them by chance a while ago and they were super helpful. So when I needed something done urgently I made contact and Liam bent over backwards to get me out of a jam. Nothing is too much trouble and if it can possibly be done it is done. I am now a commited customer and have no hesitation in recommending them.
Needed emergency electrician. Greenwaves responded within hour. Thank you John, Henry & Liam for your help & advice.
Liam was friendly, efficient and professional. Arrived within 2 hours of our call as promised. Clean and tidy. Thank you.
Efficient, respectful, and got the job done. After having trouble getting an electrician, Greenwaves sent their guy within two hours of me calling and solved our problem. We were very impressed and would recommend.
Greenway Electrical arrived extremely promptly when our main fuse box exploded due to the faulty installation of a car charger unit. Upon arriving they quickly diagnosed the problem and arranged for our electrical supplier to replace the unit. Liam and John explained everything to us and we would not hesitate to recommend them to family and friends.
Called GreenWaves as had no power , they came out within a few hours and identified the problem and restored our power, then fixed the issue in a timely manner, very friendly and professional , would reccomend
Greenwave were professional and friendly. John in particular who worked on fitting new plug sockets, light switches, and a new consumer unit, was very relaible. I am left especially happy with the work. I highly recommend Greenwave if you need any electrical work done.
Excellent work from John who took time to explain the new unit and left everything clean and tidy
Great rewiring job, Liam and John were friendly, efficient, tidy and timely. Great follow up service too. Highly recommend
Had a EICR and full rewire done by Greenwaves Electrical on our newly purchased first home. Liam, Jon, and Henry were all brilliant! Excellent communication and super attentive to detail. We had a great experience as they kept us updated on progress and worked around the problems that popped up. We will definitely be going back to them if we need anything electrical related done. Would recommend 100%!
24/7 service is fantastic. Great guy to help out in your time of need. 10/10! Really recommend especially when you’re in a pinch!
Great service thank you, will use again
Initial visit by Liam within 1 hour to diagnose cause of problem and agree solution - replace consumer unit. Job done within 3 working days by John & Peter, who arrived promptly and completed the job quickly and with minimum disruption. Both very friendly, careful to answer all our queries most helpfully and sorted a few other electrical matters they noticed while they were here. Minimum mess, all cleared after they finished. Very pleased with service overall.
I have found Greenwaves to be super reliable, efficient and flexible. I would recommend them to any in my area who need electrical work done and will be looking to them if I ever need more work done. I had a new fuse board fitted and some new plug sockets installed for a good price and they were installed quicker than I thought. The electrician I had, John, was super friendly and helpful and explained all the works before doing them, how and why he did each thing and was receptive to my input and preferences with how the work was carried out. Easily a five star service. Would recommend and use again!
A huge thank you to Liam, after our parrot bit through some cable. Professional, polite, efficient, punctual and a very fair price. A few more Liam's in this world, would make for a better place. Decent, honest dedicated guy. Thanks again. Mick n Nicky
I recently had Greenwaves Electrical install new sockets in my home and make the existing wiring safe, and I couldn’t be happier with the service. Liam provided a very competitive quote, and his team was both professional and courteous throughout the process. They completed the work in good time and went above and beyond to ensure everything was done to a high standard. It’s clear they take pride in their work, and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and skilled electricians. Thank you, Greenwaves Electrical!
1st rate service and works carried out. Arrived within the hour to carry out emergency electrical work as we had no power, fixed problem straight away. We then hired Greenwaves for a full house rewire which again was completed to a high standard in really quick time. Both Liam and John were both professional and friendly tradesman which made the rewire as painless as possible. Highly recommended.
Great job done. Quick responses on communication and work carried out efficiently and to a high standard.
Excellent service. Prompt and responded to emergency when needed
I Can highly recommend Liam and his team, not only were they professional and first class electricians they went above and beyond to help my elderly mum with very old and complicated wiring. They were very respectful of her home and possessions, moved furniture and made sure everything was left clean and tidy. Both Liam and John kept us informed and carried out the work quickly. Again I highly recommend Green Waves Electricians.
Speedy and efficient communication. Completed a Landlords Safety Check for me with the greatest of ease! Thank You
The team of Liam, Jon, and Henry fixed my house when all the sockets went out due to faulty wiring in the walls. Liam diagnosed the issue, and walked me through the options without pressure to select the most expensive. Their quote was in line with what I could find on the internet / over a couple of phone calls (who has time to really research this when your power is out?) and they didn't sweat the small stuff. The job took 5 days and was on time and on budget. I'm writing the review two weeks after the work was completed, so there's no honeymoon effect (who isn't glad to get their power back?) and the dust has had time to settle on their work. I do not hesitate to recommend them. When you look at attached photo's, be aware that: (a) I opted for the trunking and best-effort reuse of existing sockets. I was aware going in that this could leave some visual issues that only a proper replaster & wallpapering would resolve, and opted to save the money (for now), and (b) the replacement consumer unit is oversized at my request as I plan an attic conversion at some point in the future and didn't want to replace the unit twice. Communication was excellent throughout, with one notable exception: While it made clear at the start of the job there wouldn't be a complete tidy-up at the end (basically they'd run the vacuum around and that would be it), it wasn't mentioned was that the removal of the 4 sacks of builders waste generated by the work would be my problem to deal with. The quote didn't mention it one way or the other, it was just an oversight on both sides.
At a time of stress Greenwave were a great help, responding quickly and professionally, even helping out when they didn't need to when other contractors had let us down. Highly recommend.
Liam was fantastic, really nice chap and very knowledgeable! Sunday evening call out due to previous house owners dodgy wiring, he sorted it all out very quickly, and at a very reasonable rate - very much appreciated, thank you!
I called Greenwaves late on a Wednesday night to check why our electrical sockets weren’t working. Liam diagnosed the issue quickly (faulty wires due to water leakage) and the service was excellent. Highly recommend!
Not impressed paid a £150 and never turned up to do the job
Quick, efficient and well priced emergency call out.
Clean, professional service. The two gentlemen also provided us some useful advice on potential electrical work required on other parts of the property.
Prompt and efficient service for my emergency electrical problem
We had an emergency electrical problem but Liam was able to respond within a couple of hours and sorted it out. Thanks Liam, great service.
Greenwaves installed a 3 phase cable from my breaker, to an isolator and then to the other side of the building to a new appliance. They showed up on time, were clear about options, costs and timings and did a great job that I am happy with. Will definitely use again and would definitely recommend.
Excellent service quick response great work recommended
Called Greenwaves out to attend my property when all of my electrical sockets weren’t working. They arrived promptly and diagnosed the issue quickly. The service was absolutely excellent and if I could give them more than 5 stars I would. Highly recommend!
Outstanding service, Liam attended the property to help my dad who suffers from dementia, Liam was incredibly patient and kind, he fixed all the faults in less than an hour and kept in constant communication. Highly recommend this company.
Really good experience. Wired in a CNC router for me. Came on the day mentioned. Communicated very clearly throughout. No surprises and for me trustworthy.
We called on Tuesday and had an engineer visit on Thursday. So fast! The engineer was also kind, super efficient and knowledgeable. We will definitely call Greenwaves again whenever we need an electrician!
I had an excellent experience dealing with Greenwaves. So responsive, professional and reassuring I felt in very safe hands. Couldn't be happier with the work and looking forward to the next job on my list. Highly highly recommend this excellent local business.
Called them on a Saturday night to investigate a buzzing from my fuse boxes, arrived within 30 mins of calling and resolved the issue.. Liam was polite and friendly, got the job done efficiently and offered me some great safety advice.. as it was a simple job he also gave me a discount on the fee. Happy!
Arrived at time given, job completed competently and am very happy with the whole experience. Will use Greenwaves Electrical again
Our power went back off when they went and was not helpful.very unsatisfied.
Great service from Liam, super quick call out and a swift professional service, problem solved. Highly recommended.
Liam attended within an hour and helped solve a complicated problem quickly and with minimal fuss. Would recommend Greenwaves based on my experience
Brilliant service, came out within 37 minutes of calling! Extremely clean work, high quality, talked through options and very respectful, friendly. Thank you for your time and we will be using Liam again for all future work!
Good communication, came out when they said with a text beforehand with more specific ETA. Friendly, professional staff
Good efficient service.
Prompt, efficient and friendly service. Liam worked hard to determine the problem and resolve at the earliest opportunity. We feel much safer now. Thank you Liam.
I needed an electrician at short notice, I spoke to Liam and he reassured me he could help. His team came when they said they would and did a great job and the price agreed
"Thank you Liam for your prompt and efficient service today. Highly recommended company.
Really great service. Replied to emails really quick and was very accommodating with dates and times. Went above and beyond with fitting our hive thermostat. Showed us fully how to use it. Would highly recommend and will definitely use in the future!
Good service and good price. Can highly recommend.
Very good and efficient, brilliant communication. Explained everything to us and a very good price. Would highly recommend.
I kept getting an electrical fault but came to the point where the electrical sockets just wouldn’t stay on. I called Liam and explained the urgency. He made a late night visit and reassured me it would be done in an hour. I was sceptical but by his sheer confidence I took a chance. He proved me wrong and had it fixed within an hour! There is additional work I will need doing and will definitely be using Liam. Knowledgeable, and when he says he can do something he does. Highly recommend
A very swift and prompt service. He turned up on time and knew exactly what he was doing. He has good knowledge and also advised us over electrical safety. Add to that he charged us only what he said it would be. Great service and will gladly recommend. Most definitely use him again.
Very good electrician, cleaned up after finished and very informative. Will be using him again.
Liam was punctual and very helpful. He changed the fusebox and also all new wiring to the garage including sockets, light switch and light. He also installed security lights by the carport and the garden. I would highly recommend Liam if you want any electrical work carried out.
I would highly recommend Liam, he replied very quickly and texted me to make it easier to set up a time to see what the issue was. Was up front and honest about his charges depending on what the outcome would be - no hidden fees. Was really honest with what the problems were and didn’t try to sell me things/solutions I didn’t need. Nothing is too much to ask of Liam, really professional and a trustworthy tradesperson which is rare to come by - he stayed well into the evening to sort out the problems and didn’t show any attitude or irritation and I will definitely be using his services again. He even helped me with other general tasks that were not part of his initial call out and I can’t thank him enough for his time and effort and attention to detail!
Liam was very polite and efficient. Definitely recommended
Reliable. Carried out a neat and tidy job and clearly explained the work that had been done.
Great service from Liam at Greenwaves. Professional at all times and what ended up a longer job than planned was no issue for him. Brilliant company, would highly recommend.
Responded very quickly to an emergency callout & sorted out the problem.
Brilliant response and the work was top notch. Would recommend to anyone in an emergency as well as general work - we already have booked in new work!!
Emergency call out, here within half an hour, would recommend
Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend greenwaves electrical to anyone in need of any electrical work needing carried out 👍 clean tidy reliable and competitively priced. Great work will have back in the future.
We had had Liam in for a few jobs, from re wiring our kitchen to new extension external lighting and a clinic. Not only does Liam dk a great job, he is friendly and down to earth too. We have more jobs line up big and small for him.
Liam was friendly and professional and arrived within a couple of hours. He fixed the problem quickly. Highly recommend.
I contacted Liam to do some electrical work at my parents home, it was a pleasure to do business with him, polite, very tidy and did a professional job, my Mum was very happy with his work, thankyou Liam I will definitely be recommending you in the future.
