What customers say
Highlights
"I contacted Steve due to having no hot water. He said he would try to get to me that afternoon and he did! He quickly assessed what was wrong and fixed it. He also re-set the timings on the unit itself so the water is heated up in 4 hours as opposed to 7 which will save me money on my energy bills over the long term. He was punctual, friendly and informative. How refreshing to get a Tradesman you can trust and to be verified by Which? gives you extra peace of mind that he will do a job well. I would recommend Steve without hesitation."
"Steve responded promptly to my online enquiry and gave me a quote for the job over the phone. He moved sockets and added new ones in my garage. He did a good job at a fair price and I have already recommended him to my family."
"Had an EV charger installed at home this morning. The work done was of the highest standard and Steve took me through everything that was needed to ensure I got the best from my charger. Left my garage tidier than it’s been for a while and really was an absolute pleasure to deal with. Any other electrical works we need and Steve will be the only persons we will call."

Great report and wonderful service from Steve @ Wellselec. They arrived on time, were polite and their report was expedited quickly. I would highly recommend Wellselec
We needed a few relatively small electrical jobs going including new bulbs for our security lights and new balcony lights. Steve responded quickly to our initial enquiry, came round to access the jobs promptly, provided a competitive quote and agreed a date for the work. He carried out the work to a high standard and was friendly and professional throughout the whole process. Highly recommend
Steve fitted a pendant light and switch to a room which had no central light. He came out to check the work required and clearly explained the work involved. Steve arrived promptly to carry out the work and completed it in good time, clearing up any mess. We will be having further electrical work carried out in the near future which we will be asking Steve to do as he provided such a great service.
Steve replaced our consumer Units, both supplying and installing the new unit. He was punctual, friendly, took time to explain what he was doing and sorted an issue with the shower while he was here. We have some more small jobs that need doing and will be using him again.
Have used Wellselec on previous occasions so was prepared for the work being done to a very high standard. He installed an outdoor EV charger to the fuse box which he had replaced on a previous job. He had already cleared the installation with the electricity board. The job was done to budget and up to his previous high standards.
Not knowing the traders in this field, I picked Steve out of the ether and have been really lucky. He replaced and increased the sockets in our workshop area, and then the main board, tested them all and advised on future maintenance. He is capable, trustworthy and he did a great job for us, and this is a 100% genuine recommendation for a sparky in the Oldham area.
Steve fitted an EV charger at my home. He responded very quickly to my initial enquiry, handled the application to Electricity North West on my behalf, and completed the work quickly and with care. The finished job is all very neat and tidy. Highly recommended.
Steve did a brilliant job. Great guy. Would highly recommend. Does a great job. Best work and the best price
Had an EV charger fitted today. Steve was very professional and did a great job. Explained everything was really clean and tidy and offered help if needed in the future. I would highly recommend him. Excellent work.
Recommend by our kitchen fitter, Steve explained what needed to be done and how much it would cost. He was easy to get on with and very pleasant. The work was done effectively and on time according to plan. We would not hesitate to recommend him.
Steve carried out an EICR for us at short notice. Great service and very thorough. Always a pleasure to deal with and extremely reliable. Would not hesitate to recommend.
Steve arrived on time and fixed two plugs sockets for me in a very timely manner. The finish looks great! He was very professional and the service was really reasonably priced. Would highly recommend!.
Steve recently fitted a new oven for my parents. He was easy to get hold of and kept in good contact throughout the process. He was friendly and courteous and did the job on time and for the budget we had discussed. It can be difficult to find traders to do smaller jobs so I would definitely recommend him to others. It’s also very important to find someone who you can trust, especially when arranging work for elderly relatives. Thank you.
Steve was my first port of call following a total power fault at a tenanted property. This was swiftly resolved at a reasonable price. Steve has previously fully rewired my property a little over a year ago and therefore proved very reliable.
Steve fitted an EV charger for me this week. Genuinely couldn’t overstate the quality of work and service. Steve’s pre job communication is excellent. Work is completed promptly and efficiently on the date and time specified. The site is left exactly as you would wish to find it. He’s easily the tidiest tradesman we’ve ever had in our home. It looks fantastic. I would comfortably recommend Steve to any and all.
Steve has worked with us on an elabourate rebuild of our property that has taken place over the course of two and a half years, and which is still underway. He's re-wired the entire house and fitted various new sockets, light fittings, access points and data cables, including fitting out a large media wall and hanging several large TVs around the house. He's become trusted partner and someone we also consider a friend, who we trust implictly, and often leave with a key to work on the property if we're not around. He really knows his stuff and will always give his advice on the best solution when we encounter a problem or unforseen situation. it's been a long and winding road so it's reassuring to have someone we can trust to help with the electrical elements. Highly recommended.
Steve installed an electric car charger. All the approval work with the electricity board was sorted by Steve in advance. He turned up on time and did a really neat and tidy job fitting the charger flush to the uneven stone wall. Steve was a nice bloke and the invoice was for the agreed amount. No hesitation in recommending.
