Recommended electrician - Shaun Owens

Recommended Posts

I've come onto the forum purely to recommend electrician Shaun Owens. He's saved the day on two occasions for us know, once late at night when we had a new born baby where he was round immediately and more recently to rectify a live wire in our kitchen. He is professional, helpful, reasonably priced and a genuinely nice guy. He even spent time explaining exactly what he was doing and how it all worked which was much appreciated. Wouldn't look anywhere else for an electrician again!

Hey guys - first post!


We're finding the forum super useful and having just moved to the area after buying our first flat we had a issue that needed sorting really quickly before decorators could get to work. We text Shaun and he arranged to come the next day. He was polite, professional and clearly had our best interests at heart. He managed to sort the issue in double quick time and even sorted out some other things that needed doing to make sure we got our money's worth. Great guy who we couldn't rate more highly.

Hi all- I saw these great reviews of Shaun so gave him a ring a few weeks ago and arranged for him to do an electricians report of the house I'm moving into. However since agreeing to this- to my knowledge he has visited the property - he has proved impossible to contact- I've tried ringing and emailing repeatedly. Has he changed his number or email recently? Any help would be greatly appreciated- a little confusing to see that he is taking on new jobs. Not an ideal situation as it's the last thing I'm waiting on before completing the purchase!!


Thanks All,


Sam

I used Shaun following the excellent recommendations on this forum. I need a rental property certificate. Initially he was great- he responded quacking, undertook the job of fitting new smoke alarms, which was very expensive at over ?500. I never saw the certificate despite reassurances that it had been electronically sent to me. I chased him, he never responded. His work is not that good as he put a whole in my ceiling before check the wiring. He did fix it but you can see the patch up job. He is most probably okay for basic jobs but when you run into problems he disappears and he is expensive.

Unfortunately another no show for Shaun. I arranged for him to come to us do for a few small jobs last Friday, after confirming the appointment he did not turn up and has not returned my calls or texts. Very frustrating as I'd taken the morning off work to wait in for him. Anyone know another electrician please? We still need one as Shaun has seemingly vanished!

    • I've used just about all the locally available supermarkets for deliveries over the years, and I now  use Waitrose for deliveries, for various reasons. They have a good range of the things I eat, their food is good quality and their "essentials" range is generally good value (except the tissues, which suddenly became so thin as to disintegrate immediately. I was mainly buying them for the nice plain boxes, so now I just put other tissues into the old Waitrose boxes 🤣) It is very rare for something I've ordered to not be available on the day. Their delivery drivers  are genuinely friendly and helpful. Their customer service is very good. On the rare occasions I've had issues, they have refunded me without quibbling. They often have special deals on some of the things I buy often, so I stock up when they are cheaper. I do occasionally compare prices with other supermarkets, and overall I really don't think Waitrose is more expensive, but obviously they might be for things I don't personally buy. I absolutely hate Sainsbury's, would use Lidl for some things but they don't deliver, Iceland has a very small range of things I eat, and I can't remember why I don't use Tesco or Asda any more. I recently checked out Ocado because there was some offer which seemed good value, but they just didn't have enough things I wanted to buy to make it worth using the offer. M&S don't deliver ( to the best of my knowledge) but in any case they seem to be still badly suffering from the recent hack into their system. Apologies, I have just remembered this thread is about shopping at actual physical stores, but probably many of the issues are the same.
    • Since I am of a certain vintage now, not sure if what I am going to suggest is even still around but here goes… use to be able to buy “dummy/mock papers on line and also had mini synopsis of Shakespeare plays specifically covering students wanting to gain a better understanding of play before taking mocks/ exams. Only know this as many many moons ago, struggled with English Literature and Language and this was the avenue-my parents went down. Also was at this point in my life, educated abroad as part of my fathers job.  
    • Love your comment about “shoehorned” - put a smile on my face..! As for comment about “Little Waitrose” ummmm - never really thought about it. Personally, could not care less. But guess Sainsbury Local and Tesco Express are to you more acceptable.. Ultimately, when I think about it, I actually don’t care what they call themselves - been lured by partially branding and partially convenience and what they offer in groceries.
