Our 24-hour call-out service addresses urgent electrical faults. Engineers carry diagnostic equipment to resolve issues like power failures and water-damaged circuits. Priority given to safety-critical repairs in residential and commercial settings.

Our team adds sockets while maintaining aesthetic integrity. We use concealed cabling techniques and provide plaster repair. Installations comply with current regulations for both standard and high-demand electrical requirements.

There was good communication from Dave about when the work would be done, and the electricians came when they were supposed to. We had a socket fixed and 1 replaced, 3 fans fitted in our bathrooms, a light fitting fixed and our gas meter earthed. All of the work was carried out to a good standard, particularly the earthing as this was a tricky job. They have also agreed to honour the manufacturers guarantee on the 3 fans, so if they break during the 2 year warranty they will be replaced by Bordens free of parts or labour charge. Overall I was very satisfied with the job. As Bordens are a company

We used Dave and his team when we moved into our current property.They installed a new fuse box and checked all the wiring ,updating where required. All the work was done with great efficiency and everything clearly explained.Later,when we needed extra sockets in our new extension we used Bordens again. Very tidy and conscientious we would have no hesitation in recommending
for any electrical work and would certainly use again.

Dave Borden and his highly professional team did an excellent job rewiring our whole house. The work was interrupted by the Corona virus lockdown, and when the team returned to finish the work in July they were very careful to follow all the safety guidelines, wearing face masks at all times and wiping down all surfaces before leaving each evening. The work was completed to a high standard, great attention to detail and with minimum disruption.

Borden Electrics came to my house for a few jobs and were extremely thorough in their approach. I had full confidence in their ability and work, and was grateful that they found a number of hidden issues that did need fixing that I wasn't aware of. I'd highly recommend - I wish I'd found them sooner!
