RP Electrical is valued for prompt, reliable and professional electrical work, with customers highlighting clear communication, fair prices and a friendly, trustworthy approach. Reviews commonly mention EICRs and safety certificates for rental properties, remedial repairs, rewiring, fuse boxes, EV chargers and general electrical jobs, often completed efficiently and with minimal fuss. A small number of reviews raise concerns about certificate paperwork and follow-up, but many customers return and recommend Richard and his team.
Kind and reliable electricians who turn up when they say they will and do a good job. Also did a little extra free of charge which I very much appreciated. Full marks! Recommended.
Great service as always very reliable
As a landlord based overseas, RP Electrical conducted a safety check for me - absolutely seamless delivery and easy to communicate. Recommended!
RP are always prompt, efficient, and offer very good value. Highly recommended.
I had the EICR carried out by Richard on two flats, recently. He was very efficient, prompt, reliable and helpful. I would definitely recommend him.
Richard and his employees are brilliant , I have struggled to find a good electrical certificate company who were organised and efficient.we have 12 flats and Richard organised for them all to be checked in 1 day, a few sockets needed replacing and switches, which rp electrical replaced at minimal cost, and within 2 days, all the certificates were issued I am so grateful to Richard and his company RP electrical, what a breath of fresh air compared to the other companies I have used in the past
Excellent Service, very helpful, conscientious and trustworthy. I am also a repeat customer and would recommend highly.
Prompt service at honest prices. I'm going to keep Richard's number for future jobs.
Recently had my EICR done by Richard, who clearly knows his stuff! Super helpful, professional, and punctual. The whole process was smooth and efficient. I’ll definitely be using RP Electrical again in the future and would happily recommend them to anyone looking for electrical work done right.
Richard is a good honest electrician. Reasonable in price and always polite and turns up on time. Have used his serives for the last 6 years.
Richard did annual check for us. Quick and slick. From tenant point of view - splendid.
Richard did a great job of sorting my electrics bringing them up to scratch ready for me to let my property. No fuss and very good price , I would definitely use again.

Very professional and efficient
Richard rewired the electrics for my system boiler as it wasn't working properly and the heating either wasn't coming on or not switching off and getting super hot. The job took longer than expected but he kept to the quoted price. Would happily recommend. Update: 19/02/2025 - Richard sorted a small electrical issue. He was very prompt, helpful and sorted it without any fuss :) Would happily recommend.
Richard was prompt with sending email price. Easy to book in with him, he was reliable and emailed over the report on the same day. Recommended - would use again! Thank you
Richard came out after hours and resolved a problem with our ring main quickly and efficiently.
Prompt, and reasonably priced. Very happy with the service provided.
Great service. Very reasonable, flexible and on time. Recommended.
Carried out EICR on a rental property but made an important error in the paperwork. Entered the same date in the expiry column as the date on which he did the work. No reply to my requests for correction to the document.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Despite Richard’s work van breaking down in the morning he could of easily postponed the installation of our EV charger for another day, but he sorted out another van keeping us informed all the time and carried out the work later on in the day. Really friendly guy and would highly recommend. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Nice bloke. Worked fast and efficiently. Recommend
I'm a landlord, Richard has been doing electrical work and certificates within my properties for years. Very fast and meticulous. Highly recommend.
Richard was great. He booked me an appointment within a few days. He fixed two radiators @ a reasonable cost. I would recommend.
I can't recommend Richard enough! He did multiple jobs at our property, and everything was done to a high standard for a reasonable price. Very friendly, professional, and efficient. He really went above and beyond to ensure we were happy.
Richard was absolutely 💯 brilliant. Did EICR for my rental flat. Hassle free, went above and beyond to get me through it. Highly recommended. Will be absolutely using Richard for everything electrical.
Excellent service, good price and very prompt
Very professional. Articulated the problem and proffered a solution. Came in record time . Service delivery is 100%. Many thanks, Rich
I’m a repeat customer and am very happy with the work he has done. Great prices, plus he is always prompt, courteous and gets the job done quickly. Highly recommend!
Excellent service
Richard and his team were great,I've used them a few times now and will be using them again in the future.
Work was spot on, on time, completed in the time specified and also was a top guy. Had a good chat but was also efficient in everything he did. Cannot reccomend him enough 👌
Great job. Prompt efficient...will continue to use.
Best guy around for all things that need to be done electric wise, would recommend
Lovely team and great job done!
Would definitely recommend RP Electrical. Very professional. Well impressed. Will be using them again for future works
New oven installed no fuss no hassle professional job done in less than 10mins. Thanks Richard 👍
Richard was very patient with my silliness (couldn't find the switch for the hob) and came to help asap. Very communicative and great person, thank you!
I've used Richard a few times over the last couple of years, including for some remedial works and an EPC. Nice chap, honest and works to a high standard. Would certainly recommend.
I can highly recommend Richard. He was the only electrician that solved our electrical issue. We had taken out a service plan with a big company and they couldn’t solve it. I think small independent companies are the way forward. Very professional and prompt service
Excellent service from Richard. Always gets the job done quickly & efficiently. I will be using him for all of our rental properties going forward.
Richard came to my house last week and installed an electric car charger. In and out in a couple of hours with no mess left behind and a job well done. Very reasonably priced would 10/10 use again. Thanks Rich.
I have contacted Richard to carry out a survey on the property we were buying and I had a really good first impression, he did the survey and sent a report within a day. Then we asked him to come back and carry out the repair works he advised on the report, again brilliant service. Good and quick communication, very professional, he is now coming back for a third time to do some further work on the house and we will recommend him to anyone in a need of a qualified electrician. Thank you!
