"Great experience and couldnt be happier with the work carried out. Competitively priced. Friendly service and willing to go the extra mile. Would highly recommend."

"I cannot recommend Jwoods Electrical Ltd highly enough. James came out on a Saturday & did a fantastic job fixing my daughter's boiler and underfloor heating. What really stood out was the communication - we were kept informed about what was happening every step of the way. James was patient, thorough and professional. We were also impressed by the aftercare. We received a follow up message just to check everything was working perfectly (which it was). This is something you rarely get these days. The level of service was outstanding, especially on a weekend. I wouldn't go anywhere else!"

"James carried out my EICR to a high standard and went above and beyond. He completed the inspection professionally and arranged for his team to fix ducting in the roof and repaint marks in the bathroom to a great finish. He also labelled key switches (like extractor fan isolators) to ensure everything runs correctly and reprogrammed a fan that hadn’t been set up properly. Thrilled with the service, efficient, thorough and genuinely professional."

We used JWoods a while ago and both workers came out - they did a variety of work around our house and we were happy with it. We then requested they fit an outdoor socket. Only one socket with one wire running to it was fit. They tried to charge us for 4 hours of labour for a simple 1-2 hour job. The worker came out early and sat in his van a little while before knocking on our door - we had to dispute this to not pay it. Additionally, the worker took many coffee breaks, totalling over an hour & was just working very slow. We now know why. Owner didn’t seem to care or want to resolve.

We recently had our outdated fuse board consumer unit replaced by JWoods Electrical Ltd and we couldn’t be happier with the service. The old unit was constantly blowing fuses, so it was time for an upgrade. From start to finish, the electrician was professional, knowledgeable, and very thorough. They provided excellent advice throughout the process, clearly explaining all the available options and making honest recommendations for other electrical work that might be needed due to the age of our house. Communication was prompt and clear, which made the whole experience stress-free.

Mark from J Woods electrical, carried out an excellent job of replacing my old fuse board with a new modern RDCB system. This was no mean thing in a lower ceilinged up-n- downy 15 Century listed building. The job was carried out very professionally, with great respect to the property. I throughly recommend this company for not only professional workmanship but also for communications and arriving on the agreed date and time. 5*

James contacted me soon after the job was on line. A time was arranged to view job and then a quote was sent out very shortly. Having received the quote and accepted a time was set at both our convenience. Arrived on time and the job was carried out in less time than I expected. Would highly recommend JWoods Electrical for any job big or small.

James and Mark are such a find. They pick up on what you need quickly and they know their trade inside out so they make finding solutions look easy. They are also flexible and entirely dependable; if you need their help they will find a way to give it. I can’t recommend them highly enough.

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.
Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile.
Check any verified credentials, and that the business details independently check out.
