Just bought my first buy to let property in Wandsworth and as a single mum, I'm always really weary of workman/salesmen who want to take advantage of the fact that I don't have a clue. Thank God for this site! I searched for a while to find a good electrician in the area as my whole place needed work and came across Balham Electrical Services. They had really good reviews from everyone so I contacted them. The electrician that came round was lovely, really put me at ease - he explained what the problem was, how long it would take to fix and how much it would cost. Job done. I've since given his details to all of my other single gfs and would highly recommend him to anyone. Lovely guy, (he even made ME a cup of tea!), excellent service and value for money. What more can you ask for?

Ive used him too and hes very reliable, responsive , nice guy and seems to know what hes doing and would definately recommend him !

It's worth pointing out that Jeremy doesn't work with showers though....

If you need a plumber I got Jeremy Dunnill recommended through this site and he is excellent.

Both times he's turned up within two hours of my call; he's quick, polite and reasonable. His number is 07788797448

Philip- I'll be on the phone in the morning! It's great to get such a recommendation and trust someone. I'm a single mum and always worried I'll get ripped off with these things I don't understand.

Does anyone have similar recommendations for a plumber?!

We needed some advice on upgrading the kitchen lighting (spot lights) at our home in Endlesham Road so had a look on NPN where we found Balham Electrical Services 07595700715. Phil responded quickly to our request, visited our house and gave us some great tips on which ones to buy, how to save a lot of money in the process, and provided a very good quote for fitting the units. We are very pleased with the end result and we recommend Phil, whose service was excellent.

Thanks. Thats a number that has been added to my contacts!

Nice to have such a vote of confidence!

Another big thumbs up for Philip at BES. An incredibly nice, cheerful guy, very good value, turned up on time, got the job done quickly and efficiently, cleaned up all the mess (actually wanted to start hoovering, but I wouldn't let him!).

(Oh, and I too have used Aspect in the past, and they were extortionate, didn't call back when they said they would, acted like they were doing me a massive favour by turning up at all -would NOT recommend.)

Well I would not agree with that , I called out Aspect one evening and a chap was here for less than 10 minutes and I was charged over £150 ! I had checked all the switches in my Electrical box and they all looked up , but a big switch which looked up was actually off ! Never again. I used Balham Electrical and it was on a Sunday and they only charged £60 after giving me a 10% Discount for being a Nappy Valley user !They were great and I have used them several times since and always been very pleased. I have not had a problem getting through either , did you try the Emergency number or leave a message ?

Well i've tried calling him a few times and nobody has answered! ended up using aspect who were great.

Another recommendation for Phil from BES. He has just been and done a job for us on lights that turned out to be bigger than expected. He did a great job, thoroughly explained the problems and how to fix them so I was very confident in what he was doing and his professionalism. He is very easy to have around the house and communicates well in regards to when he can come and if he will be held up etc. His rates are very reasonable and he cleans up any mess he makes. I would thoroughly recommend him and it is a bonus he is so local.
