I had a non compliant switchboard and obtained several quotes to rectify. Skene’s Electrical was the most competitive and undertook the work in a timely and professional manner. Very pleased with the whole experience and will use again if I have any electrical problems.Posted on Google![]()

Great service from Duncan! He was friendly, easy to deal with, and did a great job. His pricing was fair and reasonable, and the quality of his work was excellent. He turned up when he said he would, communicated well throughout the job, and left everything tidy when he finished. I'd happily use him again and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable electrician.Posted on Google![]()
