Consumer feedback

Generated from the text of this trader's consumer reviews

David Blundell Electrical is widely praised for friendly, professional service and clear communication from the first call through to completion. Customers highlight how quickly David responds to urgent issues—arriving within an hour for an emergency hanging light due to coving falling down—and how he keeps jobs moving, even when tasks run longer than expected, without leaving until the work is right. His approach is especially comforting for vulnerable customers too, with one reviewer noting how he was “really supportive” and explained the whole process to their elderly relative with dementia.

What Customers Say

  • Punctual & responsive: Reviews repeatedly mention David arriving exactly when promised, including one where he was on the way “in half an hour” and another emergency callout where he arrived within one hour and fixed things promptly.
  • Tidy, high-quality workmanship: Customers value neat finishes, with frequent praise for being “very professional and tidy” and for “high quality workmanship” when fitting lights, downlights, and switches—or after replacing fuse boxes.
  • Knowledgeable & good value: From smart meter issues to tripping problems and circuit extensions, he works methodically and earns trust with fair pricing, including a customer saying he offered a “very fair price” for work for an elderly family member.
  • 0 missed appointments in the past 6 months

    "Dave was good at communicating, he did a great job, was very helpful and as it was a job for my elderly mother he gave her a very fair price. He spent longer than expected but did not leave until the job was done to her satisfaction."

    "We called David as an emergency as we had a light hanging off the wall due to coving falling down, he arrived within one hour of being called and fixed the problem promptly and professionally, AND then 2 other “just” jobs for us which included supplying parts! Fair and reasonable pricing! David will be the only electrician we will ever use again and heartily recommend him to anyone!"
