ABM Electrical Services is repeatedly described as polite, friendly and tidy, with several reviewers saying their property was left clean after the work. Reviewers describe EV charger installations, a full rewire, a consumer unit replacement, security cameras and other electrical jobs, with several reporting good communication and clear explanations. One reviewer reported a poor booking experience, saying emails went unanswered for months before being told there was nothing more the business could do. Another left a negative review but gave vague, contradictory reasons. Named staff were praised where multiple reviewers mentioned them, notably Alex for being helpful and knowledgeable.
Excellent
Brilliant service from experienced and highly professional electrician. Alex is a friendly and knowledgeable specialist with a wealth of experience. He can look at issues and present a variety of options as solutions with a sound recommendation. He has done work for us on a number of occasions and every time it has been great value for the money. His workmanship is excellent and he leaves everything clean and tidy. He is really a 6-star on this 5-star system!
First class service from ABM Electrical Services who did a fine job installing an EV charger at our property. From agreeing the approach with a thorough site survey through to an highly efficient installation, we felt that ABM were on the ball. The quality of the work of the installers was first class and all of the team were happy to answer queries giving us the sense that they put the customer first and have a commitment to professionalism and quality in what they do. The whole process was managed in a timely fashion and our property was left clean and tidy on completion. Would not hesitate to recommend ABM. Many thanks!
Very happy with the work carried out and the guys who came to do the work. This company can be highly recommended to anyone seeking electrical work. Thanks, Ben, Max and Alex, for everything!
Installed EV charger. Totally reliable, excellent workmanship, polite and considerate, and cleared up afterwards. Can’t recommend strongly enough.
Very responsive, thorough and customer friendly. Good value for work done.
Mitch, Joe and Ben fitted spotlights in my home today, really polite and friendly team. They got the job done in no time at all with minimal mess and they hoovered up after as well. Would absolutely recommend and will be back in the future :-)
Very pleased with the whole process during the recent installation of an EV charger. Clear quotation and explanation, quality installation, great communication throughout. We will contact Alex and his team for future work.
Just had a great job done by two friendly hard working young gentlemen. I would highly recommend ABM. and. ALEC the boss ,another gentlemen. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Excellent quality work and very professional team. Sorted out some exterior wiring for me and made everything water-tight. Before that they were able to sort out a power-outage at short notice in the middle of December. Prices are reasonable especially given the quality of work done, highly recommended!
Did some work for me last week on various jobs. Very professional and happy with the work. P.S 07/01/26 When there was an issue and we reported it was fixed within 24 hours. Cannot fault!
I was delighted with the service from ABM. They were all extremely polite and helpful. Special thanks to Jamie who worked all day in the pouring rain to finish the work.
Absolutely fabulous. Arrived very quickly got everything sorted. The chaps were so friendly and helpful. Throughly recommend 👌
We were recommended Alex by a contractor we've used for many years, so we emailed in September to see if he had availability, but did not get a response. When we spoke to the contractor to see if there was anyone else he could recommend, he spoke to Alex and said that he could do the work after passing us his phone number. When we contacted Alex on WhatsApp, he told us to just email so it could be confirmed. In total, we sent 4 emails to Alex with no response. On WhatsApp, he kept telling us to email. After waiting from September to December, he told us "There’s nothing I can do bye!!!" in a message when I chased. I do not know why he didn't say he didn't have availability and just strung us along for months. It was very unprofessional. I would not recommend trying to book with Alex as a result. Edit: As a response to Alex's message, not only did his fellow contractor speak to him on our behalf, I also provided screenshots of our emails to him on WhatsApp when he kept directing me to email. It's disingenuous of him to say that he thought our enquiries were not genuine. For whatever reason, he did not want my business which is disappointing.
The lads were great got on with job and everything was spot on
I located these people via the Web. It was my lucky day! They discovered and corrected a fault I had caused with my DIY innocence. They pointed out that my main fuse box was so old that it had become illegal and have since replaced it. A previous contractor has installed a pump into my hot water system. It worked but it was noisy and could be heard throughout the house whenever it was used. At my request ABM recommended, supplied and fitted a replacement pump with which I am very pleased. We now have hot water throughout the house at a decent pressure and without the pump waking up the neighbourhood. I have no problem in recommending this firm and their helpful, willing employees.
ABM Completed our Electrical condition report for the sale of our house, we were really impressed with the service we received they left everywhere very clean & tidy and there was minimal disruption. They also replaced 2 light fittings and a broken socket, fantastic service all round very happy. Will definitely use again.
It’s unfortunate that Ive had to leave this review. I wish I didn’t need to, however the electrics where just to electricy. The power was too powery and it’s just unbelievable. 0/10, I’m sorry to have to say this.
ABM Electrical was recommended to me by a friend, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to others. Alex was reliable, punctual, and did a really great job on a full rewire of our home - everything was done as neatly and cleanly as possible. He was happy to very promptly follow-up with any queries we had, and communicated really well. Would definitely use ABM for future jobs!
EXCELLENT!! Alex was extremely thorough and punctual in delivering the services required. He is super professional and we even had really good conversations. He did not mind helping me with some lamps (installing them) even though that was not the original plan ever since I bought the wrong ones (silly me). You can count on Alex whenever you need and you will not be disappointed!! Looking forward to seeing you soon Alex! Angel
Excellent service from Alex! My EV charger stopped working, but he was incredibly prompt in addressing and fixing the issue. Reliable and excellent service!
Had a great experience with ABM Electrical Services. Mitch was incredibly professional, clearly explained the work involved, and completed everything to a high standard. Really appreciated his attention to detail and how tidy everything was left afterwards. Would definitely recommend.
Alex and his team recently installed our EV charger, Alex attended in advance to complete a pre installation survey. On installation day the team arrived on time, the work was completed quickly and efficiently, the house was left neat and tidy. We had a query after the installtion but this was handled swiftly and we soon had a resolution. Certificates also arrived in good time too. Would certainly recomend ABM for anybody considering getting an EV charger installed.
Absolutely brilliant! Always reply to emails or call back so quickly. Clearly know what they're talking about and we wouldn't use anyone else now we have used them :) highly recommend!
I cannot sing the praises of this company enough as they really came up with the solution to a problem in record time My very elderly mother had problems with her lounge lights and I contacted Alex to come and investigate. Thank heavens we did as this turned out that this was a more complex problem than expected due to the age of the property and changing regulations. Given mum's age, this had to be handled carefully and it was agreed to do the work within a very specific time frame so as to minimize discomfort. Not only was the work done to time and at a reasonable price but the electricians actually moved furniture when needed and cleaned up as they went along.. The whole job was executed with excellent communication, courtesy and professionalism and I would recommend to anyone.
Excellent company. Reliable and well organised. Alex and his employees are friendly, very polite and competent. They did a good job. We recommend them totally.
Another great electrical install by ABM at our home. Max, the electrician assigned to our property was on time, polite and did a excellent job. Highly recommended and we will use ABM again for sure.
Many thanks to Alex and his team, would highly recommend they did a fantastic job renewing some old light fittings and sockets,the service was, prompt, clean and super professional.
Great experience of working with Alex and the ABM Team fitting. new consumer board and electric vehicle wall charger. Did exactly what was needed, on time and to a high standard leaving the area clean and tidy,
Excellent company - called out for two separate issues, both responded to very swiftly and the guys at ABM were always very helpful and efficient. Highly recommend.
Easily arranged appointment to fix my problem and prompt attendance. Because the system needed to run for a bit, they also had to come back later in the day. Excellent service.
Top-notch service from Alex and team! They installed my security cameras quickly and professionally, and explained everything perfectly. Fast, friendly, and flawless—couldn’t be happier! Highly recommend!
I would recommend the company to anyone they put me a porch light up and a light up in the back garden I am happy with the work 100% would recommend their company to anyone ABM Electrical Services .
Really great team. Reacted very promptly when I had an emergency to make our kitchen safe and useable until a leak was fixed then cane back very quickly to finish fixing the problem. Very good communications too
Fantastic service - called this morning as needed an earth cable putting in for a gas meter. Lads turned up within the hour… left the house clean and tidy and have done a great job!! Would highly recommend 👍👍 ⭐️
Very professional. No mess, no issues, prompt and did a great job
Highly recommended ! From Alex visiting to discuss the work to the follow day Max & George installing our car charging pod point. Very tidy, polite and a great job overall. Big thanks 😊
Excellent service from start to finish, communication was brilliant, Alex talked us through the options really clearly. And the finished work was just brilliant. This is the second time we’ve had work done by Alex and team and it’s been outstanding both times. Would highly recommend.
Professional experienced Electricians . Tidy , polite and friendly staff . Really good and knowledgeable , they put right some sub standard and dangerous works we’d unfortunately had done by a much less reputable company . You’ll be in safe hands with ABM electrical , we won’t use anyone else now .
We needed a few bits and pieces doing in the house, some sockets putting in, a more powerful shower installing, sorting the electrics in the attic and putting in a light. Alex was very quick to respond, come and have a look and give us a very reasonable quote I thought. The team turned up on time, were professional and decent blokes. It turned out to be a bit trickier than anticipated and they worked hard all day and went above and beyond really. We were very impressed, it was a hot day and can't have been fun, especially sorting out the attic. They came back the next morning just to finish up and tidy up holes made etc. With it being an old house they uncovered some strange things! But managed to sort them out. Very pleased with everything, would highly recommend and would use again.
Alex and colleagues were very professional. We didn’t have to wait long for Alex to do the installation. They were polite, neat and tidy. Very pleased with everything.
I've recently used ABM for a number of jobs, including a full rewire on a 1930s semi and installation of a Zappi EV charger. Alex and the team were professionals from day one, always happy to answer questions and talk me through the work, and have been flexible working around our schedules and a number of other trades. Everyone on the team was a pleasure to work with, and I would certainly use them again.
Prompt service from enquiries. Knowledgeable and friendly . Had an updated consumer unit fitted and an electric vehicle charging point . Would recommend. Very helpful
Needed someone to come quickly due to a conservatory company's electrician not being booked for the right date and to prevent delay ABM Electrical Services came out the next day and sorted out what needed to be done. They did an amazing job on a not so simple job. They then came back again after the conservatory was built and finished things off. Highly recommend to everyone. Great quality work. Great team, great company. Will definitely use them again. They went over and above what was required and we are so happy with what they have done.
Very responsive owner. He was able to quote me via videos and pictures via email and got the gist of what I was wanting easily. Staff that came out were very personable and efficient. Will use again.
Great company to deal with and Alex has looked after us really well with quick responses to our queries. Installed Zappi car charger, replaced fuse box and installed towel radiators all to a high standard. Highly recommended.
Prompt, professional, value for money. Highly recommend
Alex and his team did a complete electrical rewiring of my house. Whilst it was a somewhat stressful(as expected) week or so, the team were very professional and made the process as painless as possible. From the moment of first contact Alex has been extremely responsive and helpful. Something which after trying to work with other tradesmen recently has been a breath of fresh air. Also big shout out to Irek for explaining everything at each step, and being patient with us. In short, very happy with the work done!
Very efficient professional service, installed a security camera with floodlight. Am extremely happy with job done. Would highly recommend
Very impressed. The downstairs lights just weren't working in my home no matter what I tried for days. I got in touch with ABM Electrical Services and they came round the next day. The team spotted and sorted the issue with the fuse box in less than 10 mins. Also, gave me some sound advice. Great communication with the main office and clear when they could come around. I'd highly recommend them to anyone in York. I will definatly be using them again in the future.
Great team & service, Understood the requirements and recommended a great bit of kit. Installed on the planned date by the friendly and helpful team. Great office communication all the way through made it easy & hassle free. I'll be back!
Great work by Alex, Jenny and all the guys. All very polite engineers. Easy to communicate with Alex to finalise the details of the installation onsite.
Excellent service Thank you I would happily recommend you
Really responsive, knowledgeable and nice people. Highly recommended! Cheers!
Very good company, fast, friendly and efficient. I would definitely use again.
I'm very happy with every aspect of the work done by ABM Electrical Services. It wasn't a big job - little things like fitting new wall and cupboard lights, sorting sockets and installing a couple of electric heaters, but they were great from start to finish. Alex came initially to give a quote. He was on time, helpful, friendly and was was happy to advise what work could be done and how to fit it within my limited budget. The quote and booking process was great as it was all online and the follow up communications with Jenny were quick, helpful and professional. On the day the work was done, Irek and Mike were excellent. They were helpful, knowledgeable, friendly, tidied up after themselves, were careful to make sure I was happy with their work and that I knew how everything worked afterwards. I couldn't fault them. After the job was complete, payment of the invoice was super easy as it was all done online using their system. I like that and PayPal was an option as I find it really concenient. I am happy with everything from beginning to end of their service. I will be using their services again and would definitely recommend ABM electrical services to anyone needing an electrician.
We got in touch with ABM for a full house re-wire following the purchase of an old mid-terrace property. Alex was quick to respond to our initial enquiry and came round a few days later. The quotation process was clear and helpful, talking through what we would like but also the information and advice Alex gave to us at this point was great. First impressions do count and we felt happy and safe in ABMs hands, having relocated from another part of the country, finding tradespeople hadnt been easy but this wasn’t the case with ABM. The guys came round on the agreed start date, on time every single morning. They were polite, respectful and we felt as though we were in good hands. We were kept in the loop with the daily plans and felt as though we knew what was happening and when. Special shout out to Mitch, Mike and Matt for doing such a fab job and working around me, working from home and needing wifi access the whole time, this wasn’t a problem for the guys and they were able to accommodate. We are very pleased with the work and the final touches too. Thank you again guys, would 10/10 recommend this company and wouldn’t hesitate to contact again for further future works!
Very pleased with the final outcome of the work. Particularly pleased with having enough light in the kitchen now. Excellent team that was out for the few days to get our electrics sorted. Good communication with the main office. Will be looking to use ABM in the future.
Professional from start to finish. Excellent advice and recommendations. Communication was superb. The engineers polite,respectfuand and worked well. Couldn't ask for more. Would highly recommend.
Fantastic all round service. Alex initially identified exactly what we needed then organised a quick and highly efficient installation by the team. Great company and people to deal with and highly recommend.
Fantastic all round service. Alex initially went out of his way to identify our exact needs then Jenny arranged a rapid installation by their thoroughly professional and efficient team. 100% recommendation of this excellent company and their great people.
Helped me out of a hole simply by answering the phone! Friendly, efficient - I will certainly use again
Very good service, professional and polite technician. I called a few companies as I hadn't used one in the city before, the others either didn't sound very professional or didn't answer the phone. ABM were very helpful and reassuring right away and the woman who answered the emails and calls was really efficient. The chap who turned up to do the work was very friendly and professional. A great trustworthy company who I highly recommend.
Contacted Alex to install a Zappi charger for our electric vehicle . From the very first moment of contact , Alex and his team offered a very friendly professional service . I would have no hesitation in recommending Alex . Many thanks to Jenny as well , very efficient with the emails ! All the best , Nick and Marie
Turned up at agreed time to quote. Very responsive over email. Turned up on time to do the work. Overcame problems and even though the job got bigger the more problematic wiring they uncovered they hardly charged me any more for the extra time it took (3 hours). Very impressed. Fitted cooker well, thoroughly cleaned up and were good lads. Highly recommend them
Emergency call, no power, responded quickly and was very efficient and informative and up front costs agreed prior to work being done. Highly recommend and we would definitely use this company again.
ABM Electrical Services are reliable, courteous and very efficient. I needed the batteries changed in my smoke alarms so contacted them late evening and they were round next morning. Marvellous. M Gosling
A minor emergency was resolved within 3 hours of making the call. Steve also offered helpful advice. Unbeatable!
Alex was wonderful in going to sort out my mother's electrical problems. He took my call late in the evening, and had fixed the problem by the following lunchtime. Highly recommended.
Very efficient and professional. Responded to initial query very quickly and the work was done without a long wait. All the staff we dealt with were very friendly, happy and helpful. They did a full safety check and some small other jobs. Will definitely use them again.
I own Love to Eat Cafe in Woodthorpe. I have used ABM Electrical Services since the outset of my business. They have performed a range of electrical services from outdoor sockets, PAT testing and general electrical services. Alex and his team are always responsive and professional. Even if they can't get to you straight away, then try to guide and advise you in order to keep the cafe services functioning. I'd highly recommend them. Thank you.
Impressive and impeccable workmanship In the knowledge that this is a review and not everybody has the time or inclination to read long paragraphs, for the benefit of those who want a few lines only, I would say: Look no further, ABM Electrical Services is the right place for any electrical task, no matter how difficult or how simple. We would not ask anyone else to do the electrical work at our house any more. Professionalism, skill, meticulousness, pride in their work, friendliness (and a long list of nouns and adjectives) would define the great team formed by Alex, Scott and Jenny. If you are still interested in the reasons why I reached the conclusion stated above, please continue reading. When I first contacted ABM Electrical Services I had two main concerns. The first was a straightforward electrical job that needed to be done (a short circuit and several other electrical works and repairs). The other job was more complex because it involved an extra dimension of restoration work apart from the core electrical issues. Namely, we had a collection of antique lights and lamps that needed rewiring and adapting to current safety electrical standards. The challenge, though, consisted in achieving this goal without altering the essence of the lights, in such a way that it would be imperceptible to the eye that they had been “modernised”. When Alex came to see the jobs our expectations were not great. First, because we had had previous unfortunate experiences with electrical work carried out at the house by other electricians,, but also because after much research trying to find someone to do the job, I had almost lost any hope of restoring the lights to their former glory. However, I thought I had nothing to lose by asking. From the very first moment, I knew I had found the right person. Alex told me he had not done that kind of work before, but would be happy to attempt it. His interest and enthusiasm were uplifting, and I immediately agreed to the very reasonable quote he provided for the job. Jenny managed to squeeze me in their busy schedule to start work as soon as possible (with lockdown still looming and house repairs being difficult to book). At this point I must introduce Scott, Alex’s assistant who has been as amazing as Alex in his skills and the care he takes in his work. In the end, all our lights and lamps are proudly displayed and brightening our home every day now! I could write several pages about how impressed we were at every stage of this process and many anecdotes to illustrate the professionalism, meticulousness and pride Alex and Scott showed in their work, and how Jenny was always ready to organise it, but for the purpose of this review suffice to say that I cannot imagine any better team to trust with a job in our home. (Furthermore, I trust Alex so much that now I ask him to recommend any tradesperson to carry out a job of any kind when we need one.)
Great quality service. Kept informed at all stages, and the work was done well. Would not hesitate to use again.
Great company, very responsive. Work always carried out to the highest standards. Staff works in a clean manner and are very efficient. I don't even look for other quotes from other electricians. I just book Alex and his team.
I cannot speak highly enough about this company, They are professional responsive, trustworthy and produce first class workmanship. This also includes their office , who respond very quickly in a very polite and responsive manner. In all a great team. They are tp on our list to use again.
Alex and his team rewired our property and we were very happy with ABM Electrical. They were professional, friendly and went over and above our expectations. We can not recommend them highly enough. A job well done, thank you!
Excellent service - very honest and couldn't do more to help us out.
Second time using this firm - they are excellent - on time with good advice, courteous and considerate.
Please people if you need any sort of electrical work doing this company are fantastic and come highly recommended. It is not often that we write reviews but felt that this was well deserved great company lovely people and the guys that done our work were superb
I cannot speak highly enough for the work I have just had carried out by Alex and Jenny, we had significant time pressure and they managed to squeeze us in just before Christmas, the job had some tricky key logistics and they took care of everything with no hiccups, they have a fantastic 'can do' mentality. The testing that was undertaken was clearly meticulous and brilliant. Thank you very much, your work is hugely appreciated. ABM have more than impressed me.
Had a problem with a dying fluorescent light, which was quickly fixed the following day, efficiently and with no fuss. Without doubt I will call Alex again for any electrical problems. I most highly recommend ABM Electrical Services.
Fantastic service with an electrical supply emergency. Will definitely use again.
I was delighted with the service from ABM. I needed the work doing at very short notice and ABM went out of their way to accommodate. I highly recommend.
ABM are by far the best electrical company I have worked with for 25 years in York. Recent jobs in our city centre businesses were completed in a professional & efficient manner. Always reliable, friendly & tidy. Easy to work with especially due to Jenny who organises appointments & billing - speedily & efficiently (unlike other trades people who are often hard to contact & book) - she is invaluable & Alex and his team are brilliant! Highly recommended. Best wishes, Rozz Hancox High Petergate York
Would highly recommend, a fast and efficient service albeit for a small job of the removal of light fittings. I posted an enquiry across the weekend, received an immediate response and the job was booked in and carried out the next day. I would not hesitate to use their services again. Thanks
Friendly, on time and excellent standard of work Thanks!!
Received very professional service from the team, could not fault them and can't recommend them enough
Alex was very professional , fabulous service ,highly recommend . Thanks to you and the team our extension is now finished and we have fancy lovely lights. Amazing service .
Fantastic work by Alex and Stephen, very tidy and efficient. Jenny brilliant in the office very organised! Highly recommend.
ABM fitted a replacement built—under oven and extractor hood in our kitchen. Their communication both initially and during the preparation for the work was excellent and the job was done very quickly and neatly, with some good on the spot advice regarding the fitting of the hood. Very pleased with Alex and the team, they will definitely be my first call next time I need a competent & reliable electrician.
Great business..very reliable!
Excellent service
ABM electrical conducted the electrical connection, testing and certification for the installation of a new domestic central heating boiler in my home. Very impressed with the thorough and professional manner in which the work was conducted and happy with the competitive price. Fully recommend this company as an electrical contractor.
