Justin came over and completed the job we needed doing within a few hours of us calling! If you’re looking for a competent, super friendly and reasonably priced electrician, he’s your man! 👍
Very quickly diagnosed and fixed the problem with my kitchen lighting; will definitely use them again.
Needed an electrician at short notice after fuses kept tripping. Justin was able to accommodate me the same day, explained everything that he was doing and he was able to isolate the problem quickly with the minimum of fuss. Would happily recommend him for any future electrical work.
I recently used Wessex Electrical Services and couldn’t be more impressed with the level of professionalism and quality of work provided. From the initial contact through to completion, everything was handled efficiently, with clear communication and a strong attention to detail. The work was carried out to a very high standard, and it was obvious that real care was taken to ensure everything was safe, tidy, and done properly. It’s not always easy to find reliable tradespeople, but these guys genuinely stand out. Friendly, punctual, and trustworthy—exactly what you want. As the saying goes, “Let it be”… and trust a good electrician you can rely on. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Wessex Electrical Services to anyone looking for top-quality electrical work.
Just had new lights fitted in kitchen and bathroom, very tidy work and used good quality lighting. Very pleased with it all.
Really impressed with how Justin got on quickly with the job and has a really nice manner about him, and compared to other quotes I had obtained, was extremely reasonable and clear as to how much it would cost in total. I will certainly use Wessex Electrical in the future and recommend to friends.
Wessex Electrical answered query quickly. Darren came on time. He identified problem quickly and sorted it there and then. Cleared up and was very polite and efficient.
Contacted Wessex Electrical Services through local advertising. They responded quickly, visiting to assess work promptly and carried it out without delay. Polite and competent. Strongly recommended.
Used Justin and the team to replace halogen downlighters in the kitchen ceiling. Excellent all round service. Prompt and competitive quotation, work completed on time and to a very high standard. Will definitely use again
Really excellent service from this company, whose advert I spotted in our village magazine. We needed a new lightpull and fan fitted in our en suite and Darren, who serves our area, came out promptly and fitted new parts. Everything was left neat and tidy and a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommended.
Very pleased with the service from Justin, Jake and Darren. Very tidy and professional work. Just moved into the area and Wessex are now my electricians of choice. Highly recommended!!
Justin did a brilliant job - identified what was causing the issue, fixed it and also did a few other jobs for us while he was here. Would 100% recommend. Thanks Justin!
Excellent service from Justin who investigated and replaced some faulty smoke alarms. I would highly recommend using this company.
First time using Wessex - Darren turned up exactly when he said he would- was polite and friendly. He quickly found the issue I was having and fixed it - also offered helpful advice without being pushy- would highly recommend these chaps and will definitely use them again!!
I contacted Wessex Electrical when we had a problem with a light fitting that was tripping the consumer unit. Justin asked a few clarifying questions. He came round promptly and fixed the problem. I'd thoroughly recommend WES. Great friendly service.
What a super local company, professional and friendly. Quick to quote and schedule the work. No fuss no mess. Justin did a fantastic job, putting up two new ceiling lights for me and sorting the wiring in my garage. Competitive rates and would thoroughly recommend.
We used W.E.S. to help upgrade the lighting system in our kitchen. Darren and Justin did a great job - very friendly and always clear in their communication on the options (and the costs). We have already recommended these guys to our friends and neighbours.
Superb service from Justin and Darren. Justin helped me out over the phone even when he was away on a training course. Swift attendance for an emergency call out following a persistent RCD trip. Managed to fit visits in between jobs to help us get the power back on and even provided us with extension leads to get us back up and running until they were available. Found the issue, replaced some faulty sockets and got us back to working order! Highly recommended. Thanks
Justin, Darren and Jake did a fantastic job upgrading and relocating a consumer unit to a more accessible location. They also installed a number of new sockets for kitchen appliances and replaced some old light fittings. Following the work they tested and all fittings in the house to ensure everything was safe and working properly. All the Work was carried out in a professional manner and to a high standard. Would definitely recommend.
Excellent service from start to finish. Wall light, bathroom ceiling lights installed, electrical sockets repaired. Darren’s workmanship was first class with clear communication, Professional and great problems solving skills. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him again. Andy and Di (Overton)
Outstanding service to replace a bathroom light after a leak. Booking was easy and communication was excellent including a courtesy call on the day to know time of arrival. Justin was extremely helpful, courteous and gave lots of great advice. I will certainly use Wessex Electrical Services again and highly recommend to others.
Justin and his colleague fitted some ceiling lights, a double socket and video doorbell. They were very professional, courteous and tidy. I would certainly recommend this local company in Alton.
Highly recommended - great friendly professional service and communication from Justin and Darren - needed a replacement outdoor light, Darren fitted it perfectly, thankyou!
Excellent from start to finish.
First class service from really nice people. Justin & Darren were here on time and fitted two security lights and an outside socket to my house. I would recommend them to anyone in the Odiham area who needs electrical work carried out
Absolutely delighted with the work carried out by Justin and Jake. They were both extremely proficient and polite and did a great job on replacing ceiling lights, a ceiling fan and extractor fan, amongst other things They identified and advised on situations where work carried out previously by other electricians was not as expected or satisfactory. I was also very happy with their final invoice, very good value for their services. Happy to recommend and use again.
Justin and team did a first-rate job installing a new inline bathroom extractor fan in the attic. They overcome unexpected obstacles including a blockage in the ducting, and were very knowledgeable and can-do. I thoroughly recommend them.
A company that did an electrical inspection for us tried it on with an absurd estimate for the remedial work. Justin at Wessex Electrical Services Ltd made good the work quickly, to a great standard and issued a revised compliance certificate without delay. And at a very reasonabl price. Rare to find such a reliable, genuine electrician.
Cannot express how relieved we were when our fault was fixed. Justin was meticulous, thorough and very tidy. Would not hesitate to call on again and recommend very highly.
I would highly recommend Wessex Electrical Services. We had an electrical emergency and they were able to come out very quickly to sort out the problem. Great service, very reasonably priced and all round top people. Thank you to Justin and the team - we will definitely be using you next time :-).

Absolutely fantastic service following an electrical emergency. Very quick response, sound advice and assistance in getting it rectified. Cannot recommend highly enough!!
Just replaced two bathroom fans, did a great job. Thanks
Very pleased indeed. Both Justin and his apprentice were very nice to deal with and they did a fantastic job of repairing a cable that I had damaged behind plasterboard. I shall be recommending Wessex Electrical to friends and family if they need any work done.
Excellent work. I had an issue with a lighting circuit. They responded quickly on a weekend, fixed it, were friendly and it was a reasonable price. Thoroughly recommend
I called Justin after checking his on-line references - they weren't wrong! What great service. Professional & clean work. I will be asking him back for planned work in the future. JB
This is the second time Justin has come to the rescue. Phenomenally knowledgable, extremely high standards and explains everything clearly and concisely. I can’t recommend his and his teams services enough. Thank you!
On time, excellent work and fair price. What more could you need?
Justin was brilliant - really responsive to all of our phone calls and did a really good job fixing our lighting for a reasonable price!
Very friendly and thorough. We will definitely use them again.
Suburb service. We had dreadful problems with our house alarm. Justine came promptly and disarmed the alarm. Very professional and likeable guy as was Freddie, his sidekick!

Big thank you for attending and sorting an oven/hob issues right before Christmas Completely saved the day! Highly Recommend
A very well done job at a fair price. Finding electrical fault and replacing lights and switches as requested. Good work and very importantly honesty and a pleasant responsible tradesman.
fantastic service. quickly came out to install my new cooker. I was waiting for the invoice to be sent across and was told not to worry about paying. very very kind thing to do, Especially under the tough financial situation everyone is in! Highly recommend
I would not hesitate to recommend Wessex Electrical Services, Justin is professional, honest and very knowledgeable. The work he carried out over numerous days was done with great attention to detail, we were left with full certification, extremely happy and confident that the work had been carried out to a very high standard. We will definitely be using Justin again.
Justin was very professional from start to finish. He was very knowledgeable, explained everything to me in full and made me feel very confident. He was transparent with price- no hidden extras. Justin arrived on time and he goes above and beyond. We received full certification with the work that was completed. The price quoted was the price paid. I thought it would be a lot more expensive for the work that I needed. Would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for an electrician. I have used a lot of electricians in the past but Justin is by far the most knowledgeable electrician I’ve ever come across for safety and security for your house. I wouldn’t use another electrician again. Could honestly not recommend him enough. Great company! Many thanks.
Very good service, friendly and informative during all aspects of work. Already re-booking for more electrical repair and installation work.
Justin responded really quickly to an unexpected electrical issue revealed during roof repairs. Very professional, kept us informed through the process, polite and would certainly use again.
Very helpful, sorted the problem..
Justin is so helpful and identified the issue very quickly, he was prompt, professional and value for money, I will definitely use him again, as well as recommend to other people any time!
I contacted Wessex Electric, for the first time, as I had 2 separate issues. They were able to come out the next day & able to source my problems straight away: immersion heater needed a new element and recommended a plumber. Shower had stopped working and Justin fixed a new switch enabling shower to work – excellent service @ such short notice. They are quoting me to ‘tidy’ up my Electrical board as it’s a complete mess. Justin & Jake are professional with good work ethics, I will be confident in using them in future and highly recommend.
Great service. Would highly recommend. Supplied and fitted numerous ceiling spot lights. More work to be done in the New Year.
Justin and son did an excellent job sorting out some horrible legacy DIY cabling as part of a kitchen uplift, making everything safe for me. They also fitted a new main room light, and quoted for a board upgrade. I haven't yet agreed this, but have no doubt they would do a quality job. They were polite, extremely tidy, and professional. Their price was very reasonable, especially given the state of the cabling that had to resolve. I would be happy to use them again, which is the best recommendation.
Justin was straightforward to deal with, he explained the work clearly and carried out the job to a very high standard.
Excellent service. Was able to come quickly for an electrical issue with an insulation switch. Highly recommended.
An absolutely outstanding service. Justin and his team helped with my elderly relatives’ loss of electricity at very short notice. Was very reliable and trustworthy and took the time to explain the problem and how it was fixed. He provided a very caring service for a vulnerable elderly person living on their own. Justin provided a great value price and we will certainly be using his business for all future electrical issues and recommending to all our friends. Thank you-5 stars is not enough!
WES are our go to electrical contractor. Reliable, trustworthy and friendly. We have used WES for office wiring, factory 3 Phase cabling and data cabling. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
Tended promptly, traced and rectified fault in cooker circuit and left in good order. Prompt, friendly and professional service. Would highly recommend
Both Justin and his apprentice were a pleasure to have in my home, both trustworthy and honest. Justin is very knowledgeable, dealing with unexpected challenges professionally and with ease.
Wessex installed garage lighting and outside security lighting at our house in Alton in July. Justin was very helpful with advice and suggestions and with his son, completed all the work to a high standard in a single day. He checked and explained all aspects of the work at the end. I would recommend him unreservedly for any electrical work and would happily use his service again in the future.
I live up North and needed a reliable and good electrician to look at my brother in law's property which had an electrical problem down near Alton in Hampshire I came across this firm who replied promptly to my email query regarding the wiring problem in the property, he sorted the problem efficiently and speedily. He e-mailed me pictures of the problem together with a solution and price. Can't fault the man - excellent - just a shame he doesn't live up North as I need some work doing and would happily use him again.
Friendly, professional team . Punctual and reasonable. Very good at cleaning up after working. Very pleasant and easy to have in our home and respectful of our home.
A very friendly professional service, offering sound advice and excellent workmanship. I would definitely recommend using them for any electrical needs.
Fantastic service with a smile. Justin is there to help and advise as well as provide a really excellent and trustworthy service to his clients
