What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Homeowners around Portsmouth have left detailed accounts of the electrical work carried out by Blackmore Electrical Services, ranging from ground-floor lighting installations and kitchen socket relocations to the supply and fitting of electric vehicle chargers at residential properties. Richard Blackmore is consistently described as prompt in responding to enquiries, punctual on the day and thorough in diagnosing faults, with the explanations he gives about what is wrong and what is needed singled out as particularly helpful.

New property owners who had not previously dealt with electrical systems value the guidance they received, including advice that avoided unnecessary spending. Pricing is repeatedly described as fair and competitive, and the standard of finish is praised, with rooms left clean and tidy once the job is done. Reviews mention that awkward situations, such as tracing wiring that earlier tradesmen had left hidden behind plaster, are dealt with calmly, and that customer questions are answered courteously before and after work is completed. A kitchen refit where sockets had been overlooked is cited as an example of a same-day inspection followed by a return to finish the remaining items.

Best electrician. Richard was here on time. Performed diagnostics and resolved the issue whilst explaining it all very clearly. Very reasonable priced, would definitely recommend. My go-to electrician from this point onward.

We are recently new home owners and haven't really been responsible for electrical installations before. Rich did an exceptional job at explaining what work was recommended and then executed that work with out a fuss and on time at a more than reasonable price. Will definitely be using his services again.

I really honestly cannot recommend Richard and Bailey at Blackmore electrical, they fitted my car charger in April and what a fantastic job they’ve done, I was so impressed I had them return to fit an auxiliary outdoor socket for car charging. Another great job performed by Bailey. Due to a Wi-Fi router rest required (wiping the car charger) richard came out today and reprogrammed the charger within 5 minutes, amazing service and customer support from a fantastic team. I’ve found a reputable reliable company for all my electrical needs, thank you so much Richard and Bailey at Blackmore electrical I will recommend you all day long.

Absolutely recommend Blackmore Electrical services. Just purchased a hybrid and was at totally loss with trying to sort a home charger with my energy supplier so I went on line and made an enquiry with that I got call shortly after from Richard who explained what he could do and even came around to check our set up before quoting. I had an idea what the cost could be and it was within my expectation. The job was completed in a timely manner and looks very neat and tidy with the wires tucked away, so discreet my husband didn’t even notice it when he came home. Richard was so friendly and helpful would recommend for any electrical needs you may have.

Richard was absolutely amazing, worked over the weekend no extra charge. Brilliant service and was extremely professional and kind. I had three other electricians before Richard who could not fix the problem. Richard fixed the problem and was great value for money. I do not normally write reviews, but in this case, highly recommended. 10/10
