Highlights
"Really tidy solar install along with car charger. Michael and his team were great - punctual, communicative, tidy and kept to price despite scope of work extending. Happy to recommend."
"Reliable, trustworthy, turns up on time, attention to detail and reasonble rates. Can't fault Shaw 4 Electrical from start to finish. Michael and his team were very friendly and keen to get the job done on time. We had a battery and solar system installed and everything ran smoothly. A year later, some of the bird mesh slipped with the heavy snow and they were more than happy to return a fix the issue. 10/10 !"
"Thorough and very keen. It is handy that is local trader, I know that if I have any issues he can easily come and see what the problem may be."

"Thank you, John. We are glad you had a good experience."
Had an EV charger fitted for a pretty reasonable price. They called before they arrived and even arrived early (after asking if it was okay). Got straight to work, quick, efficient and looks great. After work was completed they went though everything they had done and in some cases why they had done it. Overall great guys, friendly and left me more than happy with the result

Contacted Michael at Shaw 4 electrical for a quote to install an EV charger. Michael went through everything over the phone and answered all questions. After a couple of weeks Gregory arrived to install my charger, all work carried out in a professional and friendly manner again listening to my wishes on how I wanted the end result. Would highly recommend and will definitely be using again for future electrical works 😊 many thanks

They arrived early, set about the install, they had to adapt from the original plan but soon come up with a solution , they installed in no time, but on commission of the unit the electric tripped, they soon found the problem, the electric was not earthed in the property, yes it cost more but he soon had this completed and left no mess.

"Thank you, Jasraj. We are glad you had a good experience and that you would recommend us. You're welcome!"
Excellent throughout. Clear communication before the work. Good assessment of what needed doing and clear explanation. Did the work to a high standard and great advice on using the app to control the unit. Highly recommended.
The service I received from Shaw 4 Electrical was exemplary from start to finish. Sarah was my main point of contact throughout and made the whole process easy, from booking and scheduling to planning the work. She was always helpful and provided clear advice whenever needed. Michael carried out the installation of the EV charger and was extremely professional in his approach. He took the time to explain each step, talked me through the work as it progressed, and made sure everything was done properly. His assistant was also very supportive and helpful throughout the job, which added to the overall confidence and reassurance. I felt completely comfortable with the work being carried out and the standard of service was excellent. I would happily use Shaw 4 Electrical again for future work and would not hesitate to recommend them.

Smart checks
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.
