AW Electrical Services

2025-01-05

I am writing in praise of an electrician that I contacted via my local copy of Quickfind (Shirley, Hall Green, Wythall)- Alan Webb (AW Electrical Services). We had the National Grid master fuse on the supply side of our meter blow at 4am in the morning of 2 January, the first really cold day of the current freeze. Alan quickly located the problem, and although it was something that he couldn't handle directly (it required National Grid Linesmen with special kit to work with live wires) he nevertheless stayed with us for several hours, handling all the Liaison with National Grid, and skilfully persuading them to prioritise us as pensioners with health issues. He couldn't have been more helpful or caring - working well beyond the call of duty. He kept in touch with us after he left, and we were re-connected before 10pm that evening. A star!

The job took longer than expected but Alan wouldn’t leave until everything was safe and secure.

"We called Alan on News Year day and he came out within the hour. He initially tried to help us over the phone to save our expense on a bank holiday. However we needed Alan to come out to the house to resolve our problem. He was extremely friendly, polite and professional. He quickly found the fault and clearly explained the problem to us. He completed the repair restored our electricity much to our delight. we highly recommend Alan and we will be using his services again."

"Rewiring carried out by AW Electrical Services. We received excellent workmanship with little or no damage to existing decor. Considering we have two flat roof extensions this proved to be quite a challenge. Everywhere left clean and tidy when work was completed thank you."

2022-09-22

"Called AW Electrcal Services as an emergency and Alan arrived within the time he had said. He was polite and thorough and explained to me exactly what the problem was and what he needed to do to put it right. He worked quickly and efficiently keeping me informed at every stage of the process. I was very happy with the way he worked and his attitude to the job. Will definitely have him again and highly recommend him."

2022-09-22

"I called out Alan as both my smoke alarms wasn't working. I had very good service, he came when I called and replaced the alarms for me. I would always recommend them every time."

2022-09-22

"I called as I could see the electrician was qualified and also local. I hoped he could come quickly, I am so glad that i did call... Alan was friendly, polite and was very professional. We needed a new light fitting as it turns out the existing one was in poor condition and if left would have been potentially dangerous. Alan quickly made us safe for the night. I asked him if he could come back the next day and refit another light and he said he would. His rices were fair and I'm so glad he came on tat night. I was so happy with the service and would not hesitate to recommend Alan to anyone who needs an electrician."

"I have found Alan and Elliot very kind and helpful, sorting me out with some very awkward problems, quickly on the ball,cant rate them high enough"

2022-09-22

"Alan fixed a shower for me last week. Everything Alan did was professional and explained thoroughly before and after he did the work. Alan was thorough and tested everything he did and explained the tests as he did them. He even did work that I wasn't expecting him to do such as trunking the wiring into the fusebox. Alan's work is neat and tidy and he treats your home with total respect. He didn't leave until he had cleaned thoroughly and asked me if everything was ok. It was almost 4 pm and he had another job to go to but he didn't rush and I felt 100% satisfied with the work he did. I would have no hesitation in recommending Alan to anyone requiring an Electrician. Thanks Alan"

"I had an emergency with all my garage & Utility sockets tripping & not resetting. I needed someone fast but my previous electrician had retired. I looked in Quickfind found AW & called Alan. He had just had a job cancelled so he was with me in less than an hour. It ended up as a pain of a job as Alan had to diligently trace the fault around the ring main. All sorted in the end and gave me some most appreciated guidance. Top quality professional work, but what makes Alan stand out for me is that he is such a polite & thoroughly personable guy ! For sure he is now my first call for any electrical work. Top Professional !"

Would have no hesitation in recommending him."

"It was after 9pm on a Friday night when I first contacted Alan. My 87year old father who lives alone had suddenly lost all his electrics, leaving him with no lighting or heating in his flat. Called Alan and explained the situation. He took all the details and arrived at my father's within the hour and stayed there until after midnight, temporarily restoring the power and enabling my father to be safe with heat and light until the following day. Alan returned the following day with the new parts needed and completed the job. He called me at all stages of the job and sent me photos of what caused the problem to occur. His work and manner is very professional, considerate and courteous and I would not hesitate to recommend him."

2022-09-22

"I can wholeheartedly recommend Alan for his first class professional work. He upgraded two fuse boards to a new consumer unit - checking everything. Accompanied with a certificate. He did so many other electrical jobs for me. I was thrilled when the seemingly impossible was accomplished without any fuss and all was left clean and tidy. Excellent."

2022-09-22

"We have an old fashioned lamp in the front garden which stopped lighting up. We called Alan who came, hoped he could replace the parts and the bulb, other that it would have to be LED. He told us that the fuse board needed updating, which which new was the case. He did an excellent job on both, kept us informed, was very meticulous and professional. We are now safe electrically, and have our lovely orange glow lamp working again."

He very clearly and simply talked me through the fault finding process until we found the issue. Can't thank him enough, was extremely helpful and a real professional with the advice he provided. Will definitely use him again if need be in the future and would recommend to anyone needing Electrical services."

"A knight in a van. I cannot praise Alan enough. When trying to put up Christmas lights outside I managed to blow my circuit boards last Saturday afternoon and found Alans number in our local directory. When I spoke to him I could tell that he really wanted to go home after working that morning and he tried to talk me though all the things it could be but I still couldn't get any plugs to work so he said he would come out and sort out the problem. He arrived promptly, calling beforehand to let me know what time he would arrive. Alan checked all my circuit boards which after many extensions are scattered thoughout the house and finally found a trip switch that linked two areas that I didn't even know existed and solved the problem. Wonderful service."

2022-09-22

"Alan installed a Ring Doorbell for me and extra power points. He advised me which Ring to buy to suit my purpose. Alan was very professional and clearly knowledgeable, and always gave me a time to expect him. He carried out the work diligently, always with care to observe Covid 19 guidelines. I have no hesitation in recommending Alan for any electrical work and would go to him first for any future work."

2022-09-22

"We contacted Alan and left a short message, giving details of our enquiry, he came back to us quickly to arrange to come and quote. All throughout his time at our home, he was very respectful of social distancing and adhered to mask wearing and sanitising etc. His quote arrived quickly and we arranged for him to carry out the work. Alan fitted a new double socket, running TV cable from the loft as well as a further power socket and wiring for a Samsung Frame TV which he fitted in one bedroom and similar electrical work in a second bedroom. Alan is very professional, he gave us exactly what we were after and made sure this met regulations, no corner cutting, even if that would have made the job easier from him. Alan kept us informed during the whole process, making recommendations and looking at ways to incorporate our requirements. He was flexible regarding his working and went to great lengths to ensure that everything was left tidy when he had finished. We are really impressed with Alan he is a nice guy and good at what he does, we have no hesitation recommending him to anyone looking for a reputable and qualified electrician. We have already asked Alan to quote for further electrical work outdoors, to begin when the weather is warmer."

2022-09-22

"I called AW Electrics in a panic one night after a power cut, I expected just some advice but Alan came to my house to help, even though it was 9pm! He was absolutely fantastic, put my mind at ease right away. He came back the next day and sorted out the fuse board, which needed updating. I don't really have trades people in my house as I always worry about strangers. I would use Alan again for any electrical problems without any hesitation, one of the most professional people I have met!"

2022-09-22

"The electric gates that are for 4 bungalows didn’t open this morning so she called him up at 6.30. He helped them on the phone, told them what they needed to do. He was very knowledgeable. She spoke to him 2-3 times between 6.30-7 and he called her back to check that what he said had worked. They have got them open now. All the people living in the bungalows are elderly so he was concerned about getting them open incase they had an emergency etc. She is going to book him in to service them because he was so patient , knowledgeable and such a help."

2022-09-22

"We were very impressed with Alan's professionalism. We had to vacate our home for three weeks, as the property required a complete rewire. The standard of work was very high. The house was immaculate when we returned. Alan had cleaned it thoroughly. When we returned home after a long and arduous drive from Devon, Alan had switched on the central heating, the kettle and the television. Very welcome touches. Alan is very caring and meticulous tradesman. I would have no hesitation in recommending his services. The electrics have been upgraded and we are very happy with the result."

When it became obvious he would need to see for himself, he arrived very soon, despite having been on his way home after a 13 hour day. He found the problem quickly and corrected it. Throughout, he was courteous, even though he was outside in the dark in freezing weather."
