Used GBR for many years now on numerous different problems, always extremely efficient service, friendly and trustworthy employees who have always completed all tasks asked of them. I would definitely recommend to anyone no matter how big or small the problem and even during a pandemic they made a house move and resulting work on the property smooth and enjoyable!!

I was recommended GBR Electrical by multiple people via a facebook post on Formby Bubble - they were great from the first contact, came round to quote that very day and then supplied a great team to complete the works on the requested date. They arrived early(!), completed the jobs fast, very neatly and professionally, lovely polite team and I'd be more than happy to use them again. Highly recommend 10/10.

I’ve used them twice in last 6 months. Most recently today. I had a problem with my socket and they sent someone out at 8.30 who had it sorted in 15 mins. Very helpful, responsive and during pandemic have been fully safety compliant with masks, distancing etc. I have no hesitation in recommending them.
