Ben from Byrd Electrical is an absolute professional. From the very start, he provided a thorough and thoughtful quote, taking the time to explain each item via a short video—something I really appreciated. On the day of the job, he arrived on time and worked with incredible focus and efficiency, requiring no hand-holding or supervision.Not only did he complete the job to a high standard, but he also tidied up afterward without being asked—a rare level of care. What really impressed me were the extra little touches, like cleaning lights he wasn’t even working on. That level of pride in his work is why I won’t be using anyone else in the future.Byrd Electrical sets the benchmark for professionalism, and they’ll be my first call for all electrical needs from now on. Highly recommended!

I never thought that I would receive such professional service for electrical services. Mine was a smallish job, but Brad for Byrd gave us perfect, timely and intelligent service. Oh that all trades acted in such a professional and consumer friendly quality and informed service. None of my dumb questions went unanswered, nor was Brad anything other than collaborative. You will not be disappointed.

Ben helped us install 3x Shelly 1 Mini Gen3's (smart relay switches) in our home, consolidating the light switching along the way to reduce redundant switches. Once he was done with the hard wiring, he was super patient with the software setup, ensuring the firmware was updated and the configuration was right, particularly for the 2 and 3 way switches.Really pleased with his work and will definitely be giving Byrd Electrical a call again when I need a sparky for my next smart home project

To organise the job was very easy and the company had great communication. Leon was very knowledgeable and finished the job quickly. Although I was informed and said yes to each price marker, in hindsight sight, I did find it quite expensive for the job. I guess I do have reassurance that the job was done correctly and statements were sent via email. Thanks Byrd electrical.
