Highlights
"Very prompt response to my request for an electrician. Within a couple of hours of making an enquiry, the guys had been and completed the work. Two extremely friendly and professional guys sorted out my issues before I even had time to make them a cup of tea. Excellent service."
"Excellent service. Matt was professional, reliable and very knowledgeable. He did a great job, working efficiently and leaving everything tidy. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him and will definitely use his services again in the future."
"I had Matt from Andrew James Electrical round in Dec 2024 to find a fault in my house. Turned out to be quite a big job that, several electricians have been out for before & clearly didn't solve the issue properly. He did a great job, thoroughly went through the house systematically looking for faults. One of which was in the garden so Matt returned on 17th Feb 2025 to sort the fault out in the garden. Whilst at my property I asked him to take a look at a light switch which was vibrating (this has previously been looked at by other electricians during previous faults). Matt immediately told me that it was highly unsafe as it wasn't earthed properly. He proceeded due to the lateness of the day to rearrange some work he had the following day (18th Feb) and came back to sort the issue out. He also rewired my kitchen lights for me within 30 mins, after being told by 3 other electricians that they couldn't sort it. Excellent work, will 100% use again and highly recommend"

Lovely lads did job perfectly
I am incredibly impressed with the service provided by Andrew James Electrical! Not only did they demonstrate exceptional skill and knowledge, but they also maintained a friendly and professional demeanour throughout the job. Their attention to detail and commitment to safety were exemplary, ensuring that everything was completed to the highest standard. I couldn't be happier with the results and would highly recommend their services to anyone in need of a reliable and skilled electrician. Truly outstanding work!
Matthew from AJE responded to my initial enquiry very quickly and he sent all the necessary information and answered all my questions comprehensively. He carried out the work to the highest standard, and he was extremely helpful and friendly, so I would highly recommend him.
Very pleased with the work from these guys.

Before you hire an electrician
In England and Wales, notifiable electrical work (new circuits, a consumer unit, anything in a bathroom or kitchen) must by law be signed off under Part P of the Building Regulations — confirm they will handle that.
Prefer an electrician registered with a government-approved competent-person scheme (NICEIC, NAPIT or ELECSA) so they can self-certify the work meets the wiring regulations.
Insist on the Electrical Installation Certificate (or Minor Works Certificate) when the job is done — it is your proof the work is safe and compliant, and you will need it if you ever sell.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
