Electrical Testing
Our Electrical Installation Condition Reports identify electrical safety risks and compliance issues in residential and commercial properties. Qualified engineers test wiring, circuits, and fixed equipment against BS 7671 standards. Clients receive detailed reports with recommendations for remedial work, ensuring continued safety and regulatory compliance.
EV Chargers
We install OZEV-approved electric vehicle charge points for homes and businesses. Our solutions include smart chargers compatible with all EV models, with optional integration into solar/battery systems. Workplace charging installations qualify for government grants, reducing upfront costs for businesses transitioning to electric fleets.
Fuse Board Upgrades
Modern metal-clad consumer units with RCD protection replace outdated fuse boards to meet current safety standards. We install surge protection devices and individual circuit breakers, significantly reducing electrical fire risks. Temporary power supplies maintain essential circuits during full-day replacement work.
Solar Panels
MCS-certified solar panel installations optimise energy generation for York's climate. Our site assessments determine optimal panel orientation and system size. We integrate storage solutions to maximise self-consumption and offer ongoing maintenance contracts to maintain system efficiency over decades of service life.
Commercial Services
From new office wiring to emergency lighting maintenance, we support commercial clients with minimal disruption. Our services include 5-yearly electrical condition reports, LED retrofitting for energy savings, and structured data cabling. Planned preventative maintenance contracts protect business continuity through reliable electrical infrastructure.

This company is old school. Very professional. Quick to answer. Eager to help and very reassuring. If they cant help you at the time of contact they call to let you know this. They are enthusiastic about what they do and I cant fault them. If only every company ran like this.

Wow! As advertised Dean is truly enthusiastic and knowledgeable about all things electric. But not only that, he can envisage the end results and effects and advise on different options and outcomes. Dean gave sensible advice, accurate and detailed quotes and his team were efficient, polite and co-operated well alongside other contractors. Thank you Dean and Team for doing such a fantastic job on my garden lighting and power.

Dean and the team competed an EICR on a rental property of mine and inspected another. The company was extremely accommodating and made time to visit the properties knowing that speed was critical. During the Covid madness when other companies typically have a lead time of 2-3 weeks, Dean squeezed me in within 48 hrs when it really mattered. Appointments were kept timeously, communication was easy and prompt, the work was completely professionally and the work invoiced rapidly. So pleased to have found a reliable and professional team to work with. Credit to Reeds Rains Acomb who made the initial

I've just used Mad About Electrics for the first time and I'm delighted with my new outside light. In the past I've experienced poor service from other electricians in York so I am very happy to have discovered a new company that takes pride in its work. I can't fault their service. Great price, excellent job done. I would highly recommend using this company. Many thanks!
