Carters Electrical Services is repeatedly described as friendly, polite and professional, with reviewers mentioning Simon and his team by name. Many customers report being kept informed and say the team arrived when agreed and left the property clean and tidy. Several reviews mention neat work on fuse boxes, sockets, lights and EV charger installations, including cables hidden from view. Emma is named for helpful quotes and email communication in one review. One reviewer says the quote was not the cheapest, though they felt it was worth it.
Very impressed by the work done by Carters. They showed up on time when they said they would, were very polite, did a great job and left things tidy and kept me informed throughout. I would definitely recommend them.
EV Charger and some repair work. Superb communication, bang on time, great job ……doesn’t get any better!
Impeccable service - performed to a high quality and very quickly too. I could not recommend Carter’s highly enough
I’ve used Carter’s Electrical Services for a few jobs now and they’ve been great every time. They never fail to fix the problem, they’re reasonably priced, friendly and efficient. Will definitely use again!
Brilliant service from start to finish! Emma who took my initial call was very helpful and I recieved a quote within a few days of enquiry for the instillation of an outside socket. The quote was reasonable and a competitive price. The electrician Simon and his apprentice came exactly when scheduled and were very friendly and polite! The work was carried out with minimal disruption and they put everything back as they found it as some furnatute had to be moved for access. I would highly recommend Carter’s Electrical Services and would not hesitate to use this company again for future works.
Carter’s did a fantastic job installing a large pendant ceiling light in a tricky position over our staircase. The final result looks absolutely fantastic and we’re so pleased with it. After getting numerous quotes, the price was very reasonable. They carried out the work very efficiently and left no mess behind. I’d definitely use Carter’s again for any electrical work in the future.
Had an oven socket moved for us, the guys did a great job, arrived at the time we arranged, finished in a couple of hours and were very friendly to chat with. Very reasonably price imo and Emma was brilliant with with communication over email (and patient while I requested a handful of different quotes).
Excellent communication from start to finish and a very professional and friendly approach by the whole team. Not the cheapest quotation but you get what you pay for, and I would have no hesitation in recommending this company.
Excellent service from Carters, communication was quick, clear and easy, Simon & Ricky did a great job with our rewire and replacement fittings, on time, neat & tidy, friendly, helpful and professional. We'd highly recommend them.
Very well organised, friendly and professional service. Reliable and competitive priced.
I used Simon Carter to fit all my lights a couple of years ago and was really impressed then. I called him again recently to replace all my light switches and plug socket faces with some fancy metal ones. I was not disappointed, friendly, efficient and very knowledgeable. He is my go to electrician and I will use him again. Highly recommended.
Great electricians keep you informed throughout your project
Carters Electrical Services did a fantastic job installing a EV Charger at my home. Emma in the office ensured the quote process and booking in the job went really smoothly. Ricky, the electrician who fitted the charger was amazing - he quickly identified a solution that meant no cables between the fuse box, meter and charger were visible and similarly for the new fuse box. He also left everything spotless. I'd highly recommend Carters Electrical Services.
Once again, I have been absolutely delighted with the overall approach and the work undertaken by Carter's Electrical Services, this time for my bathroom renovation rewiring. It's very evident that Simon and Ricky care about doing a good job, with the minimum possible disruption and leaving everything as clean and tidy as possible when they have finished. In addition, arrangements for appointments are quick and easy to make, punctuality is excellent and Simon, Ricky and Emma are all really helpful. Thanks!
When some old wiring in my house started smouldering, Carter's Electrical Services arrived at my home within 20 minutes of me ringing them, made it safe, explained everything to me clearly and invoiced me a very reasonable amount. I'm very pleased with the service I got.
We had an EV charger installed and several lights replaced, and Carter’s Electrical Services were outstanding from start to finish. The communication was excellent throughout the entire process, the pricing was competitive, and the work was completed efficiently and to a very high standard. Every member of the team we dealt with was professional, kind, friendly, and genuinely helpful. I could not fault their service and would highly recommend them.
Professional service. Very quick replies to any questions I had and gave a detailed quotes
Very detailed, professional electrical inspection by Simon at Carter’s. Lasted 5.5 hrs. Highly recommended service provider.
We are over the moon with our experience with Carters - communicative, quick and really fair price. We had a few pretty dangerous things that needed sorting from the previous owners and it was done with a ‘not a problem’ attitude. Fuse box, wired thermostat, bathroom light fitting, wired fire alarms, and light switches.
Excellent communication, Electrian arrived on time, very polite and professional, excellent clean and tidy job on the installation of an EV charger
Excellent service - the guys turned up on time and did a nice neat job.What more can you ask for? Many thanks, Martin
Efficiency throughout coupled with very friendly service.
Professional work at a very reasonable price. The team was friendly, easy to communicate with, and provided quotes quickly and clearly. The whole process was straightforward from start to finish, and the quality of the work exceeded expectations. I genuinely have no criticisms — I’m completely satisfied.
What a great company to do business with! Simon provided an outstanding service from start to finish. He was not only highly professional and knowledgeable, but also incredibly friendly and approachable. It was a pleasure speaking with him throughout the process. I truly appreciated his attention to detail and the care he took in his work. Highly recommended.
Simon and his colleague have completed several jobs for our company and throughout the entire process from initial contact, quotation, completing the works and post-works follow-up communication have been fantastic. Simon is extremely polite, well-mannered and professional, he and his team are very neat in the layout of their installations, labelling all outlets, electrical connections and the switchboard with neatly printed durable labels (no hand labels), they thoroughly clean up at the end of each day, and I have been 100% satisfied with their work. I could not recommend Carter's Electrical enough, nor speak more highly of Simon's work, he and his team are extremely rare trade professionals indeed!
Professional and personable. I would highly recommend.
Prompt, efficient and delivered quality job. More than happy to recommend.
Very efficient to work with. Excellent workmanship and quick invoicing. Made a stressful process (we lost all our upstairs lights) very manageable. We also decided to take opportunity's to do some improvements and the work was carried out to a very high standard
Absolutely amazing service from start to finish we cannot thank Simon and Ricky enough for all they have done and redone at our elderly uncles house. He has dementia and is a retired electrical engineer who likes to “supervise” but was handled with the utmost dignity and respect at all times even when little jobs turned to bigger jobs or someone pressed buttons and undid something that had been done!! Loving the labels now on the heating controls! Undoing many years worth of wires and removing the 8 fuse boards to fit just one modern red consumer unit was not an easy task but was carried out meticulously. The new under cupboard lighting has transformed the kitchen and being able to control the heating and water heating from 400 miles away is going to make things so much easier. Communication throughout has been fabulous, everything was discussed and options considered and we cannot fault the team for anything they have done. Work is of a high standard, clean and tidy and above all the house is now safe. Peace of mind goes a long way in this house and for that we are forever grateful. Highly recommended to all.
Great service all round. Very flexible, good communication, and a high quality EV charger installation
Simon installed an EV charger for me at my home. Everything about the experience was first rate. Really good website, prompt replies to my queries and total reliability in doing what he said, when he said he would do it. Simon has a genuine commitment to customers - as well as being a a really nice chap. Definitely my electrician of choice from now on.
Simon and his team were great, I had a long list of things for them to do and they done them quickly and efficiently! I had an issue with a new hob for the kitchen and they managed to find the issue and resolve it without any troubles! - Highly recommended for anyone that is in need of commercial or residential electrician 5 out of 5 stars for me. Pictures are before and after of just one job I had Simon do for me!
Extremely pleased with Simon's work - very diligent and thorough and good value for money - will certainly use him again
We wanted some external lights fitted around the house and garage and found Carter Electricals through google. Simon was very professional, knowledgeable, easy to talk to and just a genuine nice guy. Through email communication we arranged for a initial visit to view our property and locations where we wanted the lights fitted. We then communicated over Whatsapp with regards to confirming what lights we used and arranged fitting all within a week. We are more than happy with his work and he will definitely be the 1st sparky I turn to for any future works.
Simon did a great job for us installing new sockets, hob and a new circuit in the garage. Communication was great at all stages and work carried out to a high standard.
Simon has satisfactorily completed several jobs for me, most recently the installation of an upgraded consumer unit. He is experienced and very competent. His work is neat and tidy and I am happy to recommend him unreservedly. A very good and reliable tradesman.
Called up as my mum had an issue with her washing machine, Simon managed to fit us that day and kept me updated throughout the day with his likely eta. Resolved the issue in a better way than I thought and even gave me a hand with getting the washing machine plumbed in. Was extremely courteous, polite and friendly. Will definitely use again with any electrical issues I have!
Absolutely brilliant, had an emergency call out and an EICR check a few days later. Was able to identify faults and fix them on the job. Polite, and was tidy too, overall Simon was professional and I highly recommend the services of Carter's Electrical Services.
Simon fitted an ethernet run to a utility cupboard from a couple of bedrooms. Service was prompt and communication was spot-on with clear updates prior to arrival and quickly getting the work booked in! Very happy to recommend. Thanks very much!
I like it when someone gives me intelligent solutions to a task, and then carries out the work effectively, including coordination with a local builder for other aspects of the job. Simon understood what I needed (moving an EV charger) and what the job required to be done well. Good communication and good understanding of all the technical requirements. Happy to recommend Simon to anyone in the area needing electrical work done.
Simon installed all the electrics in a new shower room for me. I could tell he would do a good job from the moment he visited to assess and quote for the work. He was quick to work out what was needed and offered a very competitive price. He turned up on time and worked diligently to get the job done. He was very polite, friendly and tidy. I think I have found 'my electrician' the one I will call on whenever I need some electrical work done.
Asked for installation of two additional sockets in living room, the work was done as requested and to a high standard, left the area clean once finished. Great service, would use again!
Simon replaced a 3 phase fuse board and connected a variety of woodworking machines for me. His communication was first class making it easy to arange the work. The work itself was performed to a high standard. I would definitly reccomend him and will be using his services again if I need an electrician again in the future.
Simon did a really good job.Excellent workmanship.Very respectful,tidied as he went along and left our home as it should of been left after work was completed
Simon has done two jobs for us and we're very pleased with them. Quality, neat workmanship, good communication and value for money, Simon is very professional and a pleasure to do business with. Highly recommended.
Punctual, polite, tidy, work done to a high standard, would be happy to have him do work again and recommend to others.
Simon completed a number of jobs for us and was brilliantly professional, had great communication with us at all stages and ensured everything was left clean and tidy afterwards. We would thoroughly recommend his services and will definitely be reaching out again in the future!
Simon has just installed a new circuit for our oven and hob as the existing wiring was insufficient. I cannot recommend him highly enough, he managed to fit us in very quickly and has done an excellent job.
Simon replaced a few spotlights and switches for us, his communication was great as we went backwards and forwards with a few questions and the job was well done on the promised date/time. Thanks.
Simon was very professional, courteous - arrived on time and did an excellent & tidy job….thank you!
Simon is an excellent electrical engineer. He is a professional, honest, kind, calm, friendly and brilliant tradesperson that provides a service that demands a higher rate. I had a doorbell installed, shower fitted and my storage heaters and fuse box assessed for fault. Simon was measured in the time he spent, to save me money but didnt rush the job. He is dilligent and dedicated to providing an quality service. Simon is the go to. I would look no farther. Ps. Simon, thank you for being patient and warm with my elderly mother who was practically your shadow during your visit. I appreciate this.
Great contractor, very helpful and informative. Very respectful around the house. Highly recommended. Carried out a very neat and tidy job.
Simon is fantastic. He did a great job, turned up on time & did a neat/clean job with reasonable price on short notice. I highly recommend & will be using their services again.
Simon installed 2 outside lights and PIR, he was prompt, professional and friendly. We would thoroughly recommend him.
Simon quoted, arrived on time (after a text reminder) and did all works efficiently and cleanly. I have no hesitation recommending him. Trustworthy and reliable. The bill was as per quote.
Simon is friendly and helpful, we had a small job that really needed to be done, but hadn't got round to it. We were talking to Simon while he was doing some work for a neighbour and when he'd finished he took a look and came back a few days later to carry out the work. Great communication, very polite and clean work, we'll be using him again.
Arranged for Simon to upgrade some halogen lights for LED spotlights. The work was done on the days as arranged and for the quoted price. A handy reminder was sent the day before and arrival times confirmed on the day. Simon is friendly, approachable and carried the work in an efficient and tidy manner. I would highly recommend his services. Will definitely be using Carters Electrical again in the future.
Simon was great! Helped us with alot of stuff in our new house. Replaced old storage heaters and replaced with new ones and helped us with installing new lights and upgraded our fusebox. Will be using again, Highly recommend! Thanks again!
We contacted Carter's Electrical Services to change some sockets in our guest room from wall mounted to recessed sockets. We've been extremely happy with the communication from Carter's Electrical Services and on the day Simon arrived at the time we agreed upon. He performed the work to an excellent standard and left the room tidy once finished.
Simon is simply outstanding, nothing was too much trouble, outstanding knowledge, clean workmanship, fast response, fantastic quality, our number one Electrical service, have no doubts about this company, will use again & again...
Very clear explanation of what was required, great communication, and great diligence in completing work fully.
Great result Simon. Tidy work. Good ideas on automation - thank you.
Excellent assesment of the electriacl issue. very good communication, great work done and problem solved. cant ask for much more than that, thanks very much
Simon was absolutely fantastic, he was the only trade person who turned up to quote, we discussed my specific requirements and his quote duly arrived. Throughout the planning process his communication was first class, his timekeeping excellent, the work was carried out to a very high standard and all relevant NAPIT documentation received on the day of completion. I fully endorse Simons (Carter’ Electrical) and have recommended him to neighbours already - thanks Simon!
Very good service. Reliable and did an efficient and good job. Very helpful. Would recommend.
Very good electrician, professional and quick.
Simon was very efficient and prompt at all times. He gave clear explanations of the work that we needed to be carried out and quickly followed with his quote, of which we were very happy with. We would have no problem recommending him to our friends. David & Margaret Harris
TOP JOB, HIGHLY RECCOMEND Sometimes it can be hard to find tradesmen who will either respond to your initial enquiries, or attend when they say they will and then finish your job to a great standard at a fixed reasonable price. Simon is excellent, professional and friendly and I completely recommend him without hesitation and will use his services again.
Simon came to our house to fix a damaged cable. He was very kind to arrange this visit at short notice and he was efficient and very helpful, he was also extremely polite and kind. After meeting Simon we asked him to help us with other electrical jobs that we need doing.
Had a new extractor fan fitted in the bathroom and despite it being a tricky job and probably taking longer than originally thought - Simon did a great job, and stuck to his quote and even let me know I’d overpaid him! He also let me know when he would arrive in plenty of time to make sure I was home - thoroughly recommend him!
Simon did an excellent job for us. We needed to relocate the kitchen lighting and also run wires from inside to outside for our driveway. He found the perfect solutions for us and worked efficiently and professionally. Moreover, he is super friendly. I highly recommend him!
Simon moved and installed a couple of lights for us, even though it was a bit complicated he managed to get it done in a few hours. He is friendly, professional and delivered a great value for our money. Couldn't recommend more.
Having suffered an entire electrical shortage throughout the house, we called an emergency engineer who was with us within 30 minutes. Located the problem and sorted quickly and professionally. Offered to square off the problem socket and if in future we need any electrical assistance, we shall be using this company.
Simon came out at very short notice to fix my electrics and get my heating up and running after a burst pipe had caused a total electrical failure. He got there an hour and a half after he was called - keeping me informedall the way - did what I asked him to do - made a few other fixes and made sure everything was safe. Two days before Xmas when everyone else had closed or wasn't interested. He stayed as long as he needed to and made sure I was happy nd felt safe - and he only charged me £120 which was a quarter of what the emergency plumber charged for 15 minutes work. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him - and would definitely ring him again next time I flood my house :) Thanks Simon.
Simon worked very quickly and efficiently. Very personable and did a good job. Would highly recommend him. Tracey Steptoe
Excellent service,on time ,went above and beyond.Would recommend to others.
Simon moved the fuse box, which involved some recabling. He also added sockets, and replaced a lot of lighting, indoors and outside. His work was tidy, swift and very clean. Highly recommended.
Simon was brilliant. We lost almost all power and no idea why. Turns out a whole new fuse box was required. Simon came ASAP, started early, worked all day and was totally professional. What a life saver. A really dilligent electrician who clearly knows his stuff. His work was top notch and at a price that's right.Did a swift follow up visit too. Highly recommended.
