Amara Electrical Contractors Ltd is repeatedly described as keeping customers informed, with several reviewers saying Mike explained the work and options clearly. Many reviewers report tidy work and a clean finish, and several praise the standard of workmanship, including full rewires, consumer unit changes and an EV charger install. Reviewers also describe Mike as polite, punctual and professional. One reviewer said Michael did not come back with a quote after promising to do so, and another said Mike ignored them after a quote visit and hid their Facebook comments. The same reviewer also questioned the timing of other reviews that appeared after theirs.
Mike did a great job. He provided a very efficient service and kept me fully informed.
Highly recommend Mike! This job was a replacement bathroom extractor, but he previously did our full house rewire.
I cannot recommend Michael and the team highly enough for both the initial electrical testing and the full rewire they recently carried out. Michaels approach to the work is exceptionally detailed, and his communication throughout the entire project was brilliant—he kept me updated regularly and proactively flagged any issues or complexities as they arose. He managed his time brilliantly, even working weekends to ensure the job got completed as efficiently as possible. I particularly appreciated his honesty and problem-solving: during the process, he spotted some external lights we had missed on our original walk-around and gave me multiple practical options to resolve it. He also pointed out that wiring a bathroom mirror would require chasing through existing tiles and causing unnecessary damage, allowing us to make an informed decision to skip it and protect the finish. Professional, thorough, and a genuine pleasure to work with. Highly recommended for any electrical work!
We had Mike install an EV charger at our house in Urmston. Mike was professional throughout, turned up exactly when he said he would and did a great job with the install. Couldn't be happier and would happily recommend him to others.
EICR check followed by replacing smoke alarms and a replacement fuse box. Highly recommend! Super polite and respectful of our home - good communication and explained everything plainly and in full. Thank you!
Messaged Michael a week ago. Said he'd get back to me with a quote asap and never heard from him again.
Great service, good communication throughout and very thorough. Would recommend and use again.
Excellent service. Friendly and very efficient.
Mike came out to complete an EICR, and after that a few bits of extra work that needed doing including installing a new consumer unit. On all occasions he was on time, friendly and let us know what was happening. Great tradesman who I’d highly recommend.
Needed to replace my wired smoke detectors - approached for a quote earlier in the week and had the job completed today. Excellent service and very reasonable - 5*
Mike completed a full rewire on a ground floor flat.. the job was quite complicated but he found a solution.. he is efficient tidy and cleans up! Perfect combination!!.. Mike kept me informed throughout the job, turned up when expected and was good value for money.. highly recommended
Mike did an EICR for us on very short notice during the process of buying a property. He kept us up to date while booking it in, communicated with our estate agent and sellers, and quickly had it scheduled in for Monday morning following initial contact on Thursday afternoon. The report, which was very detailed and informative, was sent to us the same day as the checks took place and Mike provided us with quotes for improvement works within an hour of requesting them. We were really impressed with the speed of Mike's work and the quality of the documents we received. Thank you Amara!
Great service from Mike at Amara Electrical, really quick response and reasonable price. I’ve previously used Mike and have no hesitation in recommending.
Mike and Sandra recently completed a full rewire for us and they were fantastic from start to finish. Great communication from the first enquiry, professional & reliable throughout, completed the job to a very high standard and left the house clean and tidy. Highly recommend & we will definitely be using again for any electrical jobs we have in future. Thank you!
Mike from Amara Electrical provided us with a professional and transparent service from start to finish. The work he carried out was of a very high standard and communication throughout the process was flawless. We would highly recommend their services.
Installation of an electric car charging point - Really prompt efficient service. Very neat and tidy. Fair price. I was impressed with the whole experience and would recommend Mike to anyone.
Great Tradesman, very happy with work completed. Booked Mike in to complete a few electrical jobs around the house and to hook up an extra outbuilding to the mains. He and his partner were punctual, hard workers who got it done in good time. They left everything spotless. Would 100% recommend and will be using again for future jobs.
We have used Amara Electric a number of times over the years to do landlord compliant work for us in our properties in Salford and Bolton as well as our private homes. Mike is totally reliable, professional, and fairly priced work we have no hesitation recommending him and the company Dean Morris Director Domorade Limited Company No 04267671
Michael was professional, efficient and honest. Would definitely look to use him again.
Solid work. Sensible price.
Great service for a full rewire, left neat and tidy

Fitted 4 lights for me today and gave advice on another light. Arrived on time and very professional. Would definitely use again.
Second time I've employed amara to rewire a property. Professional and quality work carried out. Would recommend.
Michael is a top professional . Best electrical engineer in the town . He provided a first class quality service . Thanks 🙏

Completed a full rewire on our house. Punctual, tidy, and very high level of workmanship at a very competitive price. Would highly recommend to anyone.
Mike is a true gentleman. He has done a number of electrical jobs for me and has always done a sterling job. I would definitely recommend him.
Needed an Electrical Safety test done quickly before a house purchase, was arranged professionally and quick, with the results send over ASAP. All in all a great, friendly experience. Thanks!
Mike is very professional and polite. Got here on time and done the job quickly. He really knows what he is doing.
Cant thank Mike enough, arriving within 15 minutes of my call on a Saturday morning. Found the fault on my system and rectified the problem quickly. Polite and professional. Highly Recommend.
I would strongly recommend Michael - his communication was excellent up front and he turned up exactly on time . Very courteous and carried out a thorough job at a very competitive price .
Supplied & fitted a Car Charger with installation certificates. Very professional and excellent communication throughout. I fully recommend Mike From Amara Electrical Contractors.
Amara upgraded our fuse box to a new modern consumer unit. The price was very good as was the friendly professional service. We're happy to recommend Amara.
Excellent work, hard working professional highly recommend. Re-wired our old kitchen, updated the fuse box in the same space and very competitive on price. Will be using again.
We gave this electrician (Mike) the time to quote us for a job, a few electrical jobs actually, who then went away saying he would get in touch with a price. He then totally ignored us, which is not what you expect from a local trader. He also went on to hide our comments on Facebook, and his own page to censor genuine feedback on his unprofessional actions. A total timewaster, so if you are looking for an electrican who will get back to you, and values potential customers and their time, I would look elsewhere based on our own experiences with him. Not recommended. PS: Strange how after we posted our genuine review 1 day ago, 2 more first time 'reviewers' appear inside 24 hours, when the last review written was over 6 months ago. Make of that what you will...
Absolutely fantastic. A really thorough job done throughout the house. Total rewire of the house which was done in good time and left the house clean and tidy. Mike is a really nice guy and would definitely recommend him to others
Mike recently completed a full re-wire on our house and we are delighted with the results. From our first email, to saying goodbye he was polite, contentious and hard working. Mike originally undertook an electricity report for us which raised a few issues, including how we had numerous 'dead' plugs and how our electrics were at least 35/40 years old. We then decided to upgrade the whole system by undertaking a re-wire (inc. patch plastering) and installing outdoor lights plus two smoke detectors. He explained everything in enough detail to ensure we understood the process and no silly questions were too silly! He responded quickly to all our enquiries and kept us updated throughout the work. We will certainly look to hire Mike again to help us when we undertake any further electricity work. Thank you!
Mike (Armara Electrical Contractors) carried out a complete rewire on our house, he was very efficient and communicated well at all times. The quality of the work was excellent. Would highly recommend.
Mike from Amare completed a full house rewire for 3 bed semi detached. Great price and real quality installation. All prices quoted in advance. Highly recommended service, thank you Mike / Amara. 👍
This is the 3rd time we have used Mike's services. We find him reliable and responsive and he always turns up when he says he will. We have not had any issues with anything he has fixed for us. He is polite and professional and we now keep his number on file.
Job: installation of external light and sockets. Mike was very punctual, with excellent communication, was very clean and tidy and did a really great job at a very fair price. I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending him. 10/10 all round.
I had 3 telephone estimates for the work. Two were high and the 3rd could not do the job for several weeks. Consequently I e-mailed 4 more electricians from a local directory. Mike from Amara was the only one courteous enough to reply. His quote was very competitive, so he got the job. He was polite, pleasant, punctual and efficient.
Mike completed a full rewire at our home. Worked long hours to meet our deadline. He was friendly, professional, tidy and the level of workmanship was very high. Would highly recommend.
Mike performed a complicated rewiring of my old central heating system. Following the installation of a new boiler, the electrical configuration required rewiring to enable the generation of heat for the room radiators and hot water cylinder, both independently and together. Mike was excellent at communicating the electrical requirements with myself and the boiler engineer (Simon, Sygas Ltd). Now in my mid-seventies, it is a relief not to be facing another winter without heating. Mike is a very professional and experienced electrician and I thoroughly recommend him.
Mike's done two jobs for me. He first installed new sockets throughout my house and completed an EICR check. He then returned to fix the issues the EICR revealed. On both occasions he arrived on time, and kept me up to speed with what he was doing and how long it would take. I'm really happy with the job he's done. 👍
We really can't recommend Mike high enough. We had him helping us with a total rewire of a house. He was brilliant. Every step of the way he's been helpful, conscientious, hard working and extremely neat. Meticulous in his work and a real pleasure to have around.
Mike was a pleasure to deal with from the initial quote to the finished job. His quote was the best value and was given to us the same day as he came to look at the job. We wanted a rewire of the downstairs sockets and some lighting putting in, everything was done to a very high standard and a few issues with our existing wiring were dealt with in a professional manner. I'll be going to Mike again for any future work I need doing :-)
Mike did an absolutely fantastic job with a full house rewire. He kept us updated the whole time, worked exactly to the quote given, and even finished early! I've already recommended him to others, and will definitely be using him for all our electrics work in the future. Highly recommended!
Mike has been extremely helpful with an intermittent fault. Came very quickly and has given good advice without charging. Willing to come back again if the fault reoccurs. Have used previously for lighting installation and service was likewise on time, professional and good value for money.
Mike did a great job from quote to completing full rewire of a 3-bed semi. Potentially difficult elderly owner (I'm her son and arranged the work) and Mike was always tactful, polite, on-time and delivered to the agreed quote. No hesitation in recommending or working with again if more electrical work required.
I recently bought my first home (a flat) and it needed quite a lot of work doing. Including a re-wire, new electric heating, kitchen, new flooring, wallpaper stripping, plastering and painting. Mike from Amara Electrical Contractors was the exceptionally professional and put all of the contractors I had to deal with over approximately a 5 month period to shame. Mike completed a re-wire, installing a new fuse box, installing electrical appliances for the kitchen, removal/disconnection of old storage heaters and installation of new lights, where needed. He was extremely polite, and alway happy to fully explain a situation before expecting me to make a decision. The work was always done to a high standard and always taking into consideration that he was ultimately working on my home. I felt he understood that it's not just a job and for the customer, they want their home to be looked after. He was always happy to answer my questions along the way and always kept me updated. I would definitely recommend Mike (and Amara Electrical Contractors) if you want to know you'll get a professional job done.
We were really pleased with the job Mike (Amara Electrical Contractors) did for us. It was for a full house re-wire as well as smoke and intruder alarm installations. Mike communicated well with us in the run up to and during the work as necessary. It turned out to be a bigger job than expected but he worked really hard to ensure that it was done in the time frame he had originally given - which was great for us. The work was very neat, alot better than we were expecting for a rewire and he made a real effort to leave the house as clean as he could which was really appreciated. It's clear he is very skilled and takes pride in his work.
New EV charger installed. Mike was great with communication before the job, arrived right on time, kept the place neat and tidy, finished the job in the expected time, and price was as agreed beforehand. More than happy to recommend and would be welcome back if we have work required in future.
I have used Amara several times for several different jobs and Mike has always done a great job to a high standard of work. He is completely professional, trustworthy and reliable. He always turned up when he said he would, gets on with the job and does not leave any mess. I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone.
Mike fully rewired our house following an inspection. He was professional, communicative, and did a high quality job. He discussed our options with us at every step, and I wouldn't hesitate to use his services again. Attached is a before and after of the consumer unit swap, the entire installation is top notch.
Mike was fantastic. He was polite, tidy and punctual! No question too silly to answer. Quality of work fantastic and very competitively priced. He did a great job rewiring our home. I'd recommend him thoroughly.
Mike fully rewired our house following an inspection, quote was extremely competitive. He was professional, communicative, and did a high quality job. He answered all our questions and put our mind at ease and I wouldn't hesitate to use his services again and recommend him to anyone.
Micheal did a full rewire of our 1930's doer-upper. We had several quotes and his was excellent value. There was always great communication surrounding job. Responses to questions we had were always very quick. We vacated the property for two weeks whilst work was done. On return everything was ready, zero hiccups, a very smooth process. My wife and I were extermely happy with everything and would definitely recommend Amara.
Excellent service. Mike carried out an EICR on our new house, and completed the remedial work that followed, which involved replacing our old consumer unit. He stuck to the initial quote given, was on time, kept in contact regarding any ordered parts, was happy to answer any questions I had, and carried out work to a professional standard. Would highly recommend.
I would highly recommend this company, very reliable, trustworthy, competitive rates and always left the property in a clean condition.
