10 Outdoor socket
Posted 08 April
Had outdoor electric socket fitted. Gary was very friendly and professional. The job was carried out quickly and at a great price. I will definitely use again for any electrical jobs. Highly recommendVerified reviewerJob location: DH410 New Mainsboard and full Earthing upgrade
Posted 01 October 2024
We required a new mains board due to the age of the house and were experiencing earthing problems which led to problems with the cooker, the shower and various other sockets throughout the house. Garry explained clearly, and in great detail, the problem and the work that was required. His quote was very reasonable and his knowledge of his trade is excellent. The work that he and Pip did was done to a high standard with the minimum of disruption. It's great to have peace of mind now and 100% confidence when using the power in the house. Thanks Garry, forever in your debt.Verified reviewerJob location: SR810 Oven fitting

Posted 04 March 2024
We contacted GES via Checkatrade, as we needed a new consumer unit following electric shower failure. The existing consumer unit was outdated and unsafe and failing to trip. A visit was quickly arranged and Garry and Pip soon got to grips with the job in hand. It was by no means straightforward as our property is very old, and Pip had a heck of a job just fitting the new box due to crumbling plaster! We are more than satisfied with their excellent work. These lads were pleasant, professional and they explained everything to us. Highly recommended!Verified reviewerJob location: SR79.5 Cooker installed
