MYE RENEWABLES LTD is praised across many reviews for solar panel and battery installations, with reviewers describing Chris and his team as professional, thorough and tidy, and several say they would use the firm again or recommend it. One reviewer reported an EV charger replacement done cleanly, a dangerous fault from a previous contractor corrected and certification provided within days. Communication is a recurring positive theme: one customer said they were kept informed at every stage, another said Chris replied quickly to questions, and another said a booking was made at their convenience. One reviewer reported a no-show for a survey, no phone call and a promised callback that did not happen, wasting their day off. Another reviewer reported a week-long wait for test results, unresponsive contact, unexpected negative results and an underfloor heating fault afterwards, with no discount offered.
Had an appointment booked for 1300 to do a survey no show no phone call when I called chris said did not know where his surveyor was and that he would call me back in a few moments again no call back waisted my day off not happy with this as the reviews say good communication which did not happen then get a call later from someone in the office to say I don’t know what has happened but would you like to reschedule… really what a complete waste of my time and a great start with a company that prides itself on having a good relationship with the customer (not) hope you read this Chris and take note this is not the way to do business
Chris was excellent from the start, very thorough and detailed. Very professional and respectful. Didn't quite work out, but that's life, but nevertheless, he was courteous and polite and very understanding of my circumstances. Only thing is that the quote was good at the very start, that's all! Thank you Chris, if I ever need anything in the future I will call upon you. All the very best. Dave
Contacted MYE Renewables for a quotation for solar panels. The response was quick and an appt booked at our convenience. We were provided with information on the options so we could make an informed choice. Chris answered our numerous questions. Chris was very thorough and provided quotations based on our needs. After accepting the quotation a installation date was set. We were kept informed of the progress leading up to the install date. The team who installed the system were very respectful of our property and were very tidy. Once completed Chris spent time demonstrating the system and has also replied very quickly to any questions we have had. I would not hesitate in recommending Chris and his team at MYE Renewables.
I had a solar panel and battery installation carried out by Chris and his team a couple of years ago which went really well and today I have had Chris come and install an additional battery to enhance what was already a fantastic system
Chris at Hector's Electrics Limited was good enough to come and do the replacement of our EV charger at short notice. Courteous, meticulous and extremely professional in his methods he made a very clean and smart job of the install, corrected a serious and potentially dangerous fault from a previous contractor, and provided full small works certification within days. Cannot recommend him highly enough.
Replaced some lights and installed a chandier for us. Fantastic service, courteous and diligent, excellent value for money. Thank you!
We have just had a 7.0kw Solar PV system installed with 16 panels, Luxpower hybrid inverter, battery storage, water diverter and a Myenergi Zappi car charger, the system has been up and running now for a couple of weeks and we cant believe how much energy we are producing, one day last week the system started to produce from about 5:30am ! until about 9:00pm absolutely brilliant, we produced 51kw total that day..wow..the system has exceeded our expectations, From the initial consultation with Roger ( Make your energy ) producing a detailed report of energy expectations and equipment options for the most efficient system for our requirements and roof size, Chris and his team have been very professional and extremely knowledgeable, nothing was too much trouble, Chris even did a roof survey with a drone and pointed out a couple of cracked tiles , which he had replaced, we were informed at every stage of timescales for the scaffolders and roofers who again were very professional, The quality of the installation was excellent a very neat job, Jordan who did most of the installation was very knowledgeable and friendly, Chris even bought a skip bag for the rubbish, We would highly recommend to use Chris and his team for Solar PV installation, and cant wait for some more sun !! ...
Delighted with work carried out by Hector's Electrics. Communication was fantastic and very clean work. Will use again in the future & would highly recommend
Job done well and to estimate. Would recommend and use again.
We wanted solar energy for a long time and could not find anyone who could discuss our requirements and give us a suitable solution until we met Chris Hector. He listened carefully and made suggestions as necessary and designed and fixed a lovely system for us which is filling our needs beautifully. We cannot recommend Chris and his workers enough. Mark and Kate Bexson
Once the job is booked the work is done quickly and efficiently. Nice chap too!
Excellent service as usual !!
Electrician arrived on time was most accommodating, did a good job, clan and tidy. Reasonable cost and would use again.
From initial contact through to installation of a 6kwhr storage battery system to my existing PV system, Hectors Electrics were very good. Technically very knowledgeable about the installation and its integration with my existing system. Initial set up by team was very good and follow up by Chris in setting up the software via App and online was clear and effective. I found it easy to work with Chris and his team in the planning phase, exchanging ideas to achieve my preference for installation to be in the loft of my circa 1980's house. On the installation day the two electricians were friendly and respectful of my property. I have no reservations that should the need arise, Chris will be helpful with any follow up queries wrt software and control system to maximise the benefit from the installation.
Had solar and an EV charge point installed by Hectors Electric. Very professional and friendly, they are now my go to company in Hilton for any electrical requirements i have. Well recommended.
Good company to deal with, well organised, always someone to answer the phone, provides identifications details of who is going to do the work the day before, provides detailed estimates for the work to be carried out, provides well detailed invoices with easy means to make payment. Have no hesitation in recommending.
I wanted battery storage added to my existing solar panels. Chris was very knowledgeable and helpful. Installation,by Alex, went well on the day. The results have been excellent.
I recently used Hector's Electrics to install a battery system (LuxPower Inverter and Greenlinx batteries). The service provided from start to finish was excellent. Upon initial engagement with Hectors a site survey was done discussing battery options, size of system etc. A report was provided showing payback for various options allowing me to make an informed decision. The install was primarily done by Alex and Jordan who were both friendly and professional. Chris carried out the final commissioning of the system. Chris has been responsive to any questions I have and providing ongoing support. The overall job was of a very high standard and I am very happy with the service provided and won't hesitate to use Hectors for future electrical work.
I've used Chris's company several times for my HMO's in Nottingham. Always reliable and a great service, which I have found is few and far between when dealing with various other trades people!! Would highly recommend.
What can I say!! Adding solar to your house can be a daunting task. There are so many options available but I wanted to make sure I had a reliable long term investment. This is where Chris@ Hectors electrics came into his own!! I am one of those customers with a millin questions. All answered without any issues at all. G99, MCS, insurance etc etc all a mine field unless the only way it is all done is the right way and Chris nailed this! I didnt need to worry about any of it, there were no corners cut. I wanted to squeeze a couple more panels on but this would have taken me too close to the edge of the roof. Good job Chris stuck his ground on this and said it wouldnt meet reccomendations from MCS as the next night was very windy and im sure i would have had no panels left if it was done incorrectly!! G99, no problem all sorted by Hectors. All signed off now and registered for export. If anyone asks me now locally about solar I wouldnt even question giving them Hectors Electrics phone number! Thank you guys!!
Found these guys from our local village magazine and thought of giving them a go. All I can say is wow! Great customer service and within 24 hours of me booking an electrician my issue was fixed. Definitely use Hectors Electrics again and thanks again to Alex for fixing our extractor fan!
Emerson heater
I had work done to remove some existing sockets, change and move single sockets from single to double, replace light switches, change a single socket to double usb socket and fit a brand new double usb socket. Great service from start to finish. Really happy with the quote and the work done. Process was really well managed by the team. Work was completed when stated and for the quoted price. All rubbish and mess was cleaned up and removed from my house. 👍👌
Hector's Electrics did an amazing job. They gave a thorough initial inspection to discuss requirements and managed to install everything soon afterwards to a very high standard for a reasonable price. I'm really happy with the quality of the work and when a minor fault was found they came over to correct it the next day. Strongly recommend.
Very happy with the service received from Jordan. He arrived on time, was pleasant and answered any questions we had and cleared up any mess he made. Would definitely call Hector's Electrics again when we need any work carried out.
Very pleasant electrical engineer.Very efficient and pleasant. Would be happy to recommend to my friends...
Excellent service, clean and thorough, accurate quote, would use again.
Extremely professional from the outset good understanding of the project and competitive pricing. Prompt and timely attendance and staff all very pleasant and efficient and kept working areas tidy. Would definitely recommend them and will be using them again for the next project we have.
They did a great job for a reasonable price. Perfect communication. I'm sure I will call them again if I need anything.
Very impressed with the quality of work, the tidiness of the job and it was done exactly as I requested. My pub shed now has lights and power sockets thanks to Hector's Electrics. I've now got cold beers in my fridge, whoopee! Thank you!
Great customer service, new timed fan installation in the en suite, booked in and repaired in under a week. Jordan who came round was lovely, polite and carried out the work effectively, left everything tidy and explained how the fan timer worked to. Will definitely be using again. Thank you
Would highly recommend Hector's electrics, they have me advanced notice of when they would arrive and turned up on time. Neatly fitted the wiring in the garage and went through how to use the charging points and demonstrated it working with their electric van (my electric vehicle hadn't arrived yet) They were polite and professional. Highly recommend their good quality service and communication.
Completed our electric cooker installation today. Professional service and attention to detail. Kept us informed of any issues along the way with a clear and honest quote given prior to the work being completed. Will definitely use Hector’s Electrics again. Thanks
The installation was completed as agreed with courtesy & professionally.However the wallbox software was a complete nightmare to install.
Thanks for a great job Chris! Quite an unusual job but as the EV Changer was being installed at a Grade 2 Listed Building, it was necessary to get listed building consent and full planning permission even though this is not normally required for such a device under the permitted development scheme. This process took most of 2021 as we were applying for multiple development at the same time. Chis showed incredible stamina with my ever more demanding specification so as to be mounted away from the building and between us, we worked together with me doing the trench and post work and Chris doing the clever bit. The post with was sourced from Hadley Reclaim, is a similar age to the house C1574. Perhaps a horse and cart would have been a better mode of transport but time move on :-)
Very professional service. Very fair quote and work carried out to a high standard
Chris and his team were fantastic from start to finish . Clear advice and a professional service
Definitely recommend to all my friends and family friendly service very prompt. Electrician Tom. always checked as I was happy with exactly where the fittings were going. Very clean and tidy very very happy with the work. I most certainly will be using them again.
We had been suffering from frequent power cut outs. The electrcian from Hector arrived at agreed time. Did a thorough investigation and found what was wrong and fixed it. Kept me informed of what needs to be gone with photos. I would definitely recommend this firm.
Required an electrical certificate for a house sale and found them very obliging and professional. Work was carried out with minimal disruption and I would definitely use again and recommend them
Recent electrical installation work completed by Hectors Electrical was excellent. Both Chris & Tom were brilliant from start to finish. Great communication was the key, I always knew what was happening and when. Definitely recommend.
Great service. Highly recommended.
Good professional service will use again when needed. Thanks.
Chris was recommended to us ans took a job on (testing) in preparation for a house sale knowing that we need it done together with any repairs quickly. Testing was carried out within couple of days, and we have been told that there are no issues. We then had to wait over a week for the results when we tried to get in touch via phone or email Chris was unresponsive and eventually told us: ''As a successful business we sometimes become overloaded with work and this causes our service levels to drop.'' - which meant to us as much as 'I took too much on, don't care, I will pickup your job when I finish with more profitable jobs'. Finally, we were surprised to receive negative testing results with numerous issues highlighted.We then tried to get some clarification and quote for solutions - this unfortunately took too long, and we had to hire someone else to re-test and carry out requires repairs and modifications. We have noticed that our electric under floor heating stopped working during or just after the testing have been carried out - after almost a month delay and follow-up emails Chris replied ''I can't see how our testing would have broken the power supply to the floor.'' This contradicts what our new electrician diagnosed. We have asked for a discount to compensate the delays but non was hive same happened with the under floor control unit cost no compensation was offered. The only positive I can find assuming it was honest was the thorough and descriptive analysis of the electrical system. I decided to post this review as a warning for others and I do not expect explanations offers of refund or any other action. I have paid for the inadequate service in full and already paid for re-testing and repairs also replaced mysteriously damaged control unit at my own cost.
Excellent local service will use again! Big thumbs up
Chris has done several jobs for us in recent years, and always gives a professional service. His team are always helpful and courteous, and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them.
We used Hector's electrics for our kitchen refit. Throughout the process Chris and his team were professional, conscientious and worked with us to find the best solutions to achieve what we wanted. All the work was carried out to an excellent standard and everything left neat and tidy afterwards. Very pleased with the service we received!
Hectors electrics installed some external sockets for us. Chris was very professional with his advice and guidance regarding meeting our needs. Once we agreed he scheduled the work keeping us informed along the way. Chris and Tom arrived on the date expected and once initiated Tom completed the work to a satisfactory standard. Chris did a final check to ensure we were happy. We would recommend Hector Electrics and would not hesitate to use them again in the future.
Excellent service again from Chris Hector. I recommend him without hesitation and use Chris for all of our electrical work.
Very proffesional and trustworthy. Did an excellent job of installing additional elctrical sockets around the rental property. Very easy to work with and very competative price. Would recomend.
Excellent Service from this company. Garage electrics, interior lights & outdoor patio & security lights. Hard working, good quality workmanship, & most important to me, good communication. Will definitely use this company again.
Chris and his apprentice carried out work in our property and the work was done to an acceptable condition. Coving was required to be removed in the dining room and the lounge and although I agreed to this, it was on condition that it was removed in a neat manner to allow it to be repaired. This was particularly important because the coving in the lounge was of a period design that would have been difficult to replace. In the dining room the coving was removed with care allowing for it to be repaired but the period coving in the living room was broken into small pieces and put in the bin thereby eliminating the possibility of it being repaired. More care would have been expected. Additionally on the second day that Chris and his apprentice had access to the property my noise cancelling headphones disappeared. They were not in the house on the Tuesday, which was the first day that the work was carried out as they were with me. I brought them home on Wednesday and they were left in full view in the lounge on the Thursday, the second day work was carried out. They were placed in a basket just under the area where the coving was removed. Chris and his apprentice were the only people with unsolicited access to the house, except my 70 year old mother in law. I did question Chris on the matter and he informed that neither he or his apprentice saw or took the headphones. Chris informed me that his apprentice was left alone and unsupervised at the property. The headphones have never been recovered. It could just be a coincidence that a piece of expensive technology has gone missing without trace in a tidy and well organised house on a day where full access was given to Chris and his apprentice. Most people do not believe in coincidences. I did report this to the police but without CCTV evidence they said they would not be able to take any action. I am sure Chris will carry out a good job as an electrician but I would think twice about leave valuable portable items in the house on display. Chris did not even offer to replace the headphones or refund the value of these.
