Max was able to come out at short notice and fix an electrical fault that was disabling our hob and oven. While he was here we also asked him to change lots of switches for new ones. His work was excellent, timely and on budget. Friendly and easy to deal with! Would highly recommend.

Practical answers
Not sure where to start?
How do I know which electrical service to book?
For something that has stopped working, start with fault finding or repairs. Choose installation work for new fittings or wiring, and inspections for an EICR or appliance checks. If none fits, choose “Something else / I’m not sure” and describe the job.
Ask Max about thisCan I get a price from a photograph?
A safe photograph and a description can help the first conversation. The existing installation and access may still need assessment before the scope and price can be confirmed.
Ask Max about thisWhat areas do you cover?
PB Electrical covers Bristol and surrounding areas. Share your postcode when you call or enquire so the job location and attendance can be discussed.
Ask Max about thisWhat affects the cost of an electrical job?
The installation’s condition, number of points or circuits, equipment and cable access affect the scope. Fault diagnosis, new installation and inspection are priced for different tasks. Explain the outcome you need and ask what products, testing, making good and follow-up are included before comparing quotations.
Ask Max about thisDo I need an EICR or fault finding for a tripping circuit?
An active recurring fault normally needs a focused investigation, while an EICR assesses the condition of a defined installation. Tell Max about the fault even if you also need a report. The inspection should not be assumed to include tracing and repairing every symptom as part of the same instruction.
Ask Max about thisDo I need to choose the fittings before getting a quote?
You can discuss the job before choosing every product. Final fittings and appliance specifications can affect wiring, controls and the price, so provisional choices should be identified in the quotation. Confirm products before installation, especially where changes could affect supplies or finished surfaces.
