PP Electrical Services in short

PP Electrical Services is a family-run Telford electrician at Halesfield whose work includes CCTV installation, access systems and fire alarms alongside electrical services. Staff are described as directly employed and insured by the company. In our judgement it suits anyone whose security needs arrive with electrical work rather than as a standalone brief.

Customer reviews are split across two sites, with a mid-range Google score and a weaker record on Trustpilot. The limited company record is checkable and stretches back over a decade. What counts against PP is fit and openness: no alarm or CCTV accreditations are published and no rates or price menu appear on the site.

The record shows a family-run Halesfield electrician fitting CCTV, access systems and fire alarms beside its electrical work across Telford, Shrewsbury, Newport, Wolverhampton and the wider county. Staff are described as directly employed and insured, with NICEIC approval stated for the electrical side, which suits a buyer whose security needs arrive with a rewire. The quotation route runs through the website rather than a price menu, so the combined brief needs spelling out up front.

Customer evidence is split: a mid-range Google score against a weaker record on the second platform. With both bases small, neither average proves much, so we read the two sites together as a mixed signal and put more emphasis on the CCTV spec and recent security references. The electrical ticket is the firmer half of a mixed file.

Our verdict

Our judgement: PP suits you if you want a Telford electrician that also fits CCTV and access systems, with insured staff stated on the site and a company record going back to 2013 [1] [3]. What counts against it is the lack of named accreditations and the absence of rates or a price menu [1].

Questions about PP Electrical Services

Is PP Electrical Services any good?

On the evidence, it suits combined briefs: a family-run electrician that also fits CCTV and access systems, with insured staff stated. Reviews are split across two sites, so read both. Ask for the CCTV spec and recent security references in writing. Read the quote as carefully as the stars, since missing paperwork is where this round's gaps usually sit.

Is PP Electrical Services NICEIC registered?

NICEIC approval is stated on the business's website, which covers its electrical work; no alarm or CCTV scheme membership is published. Ask for the NICEIC details and check them on the scheme search. Get the CCTV spec and price in writing too. Take the number from the firm itself, since a logo alone proves nothing.

How much does PP Electrical Services charge?

It publishes no rates, menu or VAT position, inviting quotation requests instead. That means your quote does the talking. List the electrical and security items together and ask for each shown separately with VAT, attaching consumer-unit photos and a room list. Fix the VAT position in the same exchange, since published guide prices normally exclude it.

Where does PP Electrical Services work?

The firm works from Halesfield across Telford and Shrewsbury with wider county cover. Electrical work with security fitted in is its brief. Send your postcode and job list to confirm cover, mentioning parking and survey access. Say when the survey can happen. Out-of-patch jobs can still be quoted, but expect the travel to show in the price.

How is PP Electrical Services ranked?

It sits outside the top ten in our September round: a security-second practice rather than a security-first specialist. Customer reviews, qualifications and how open a firm is about itself all go into the score. Read the full review, then compare it with the ranked ten. The order refreshes with each new round, so check the card dates before treating it as current.

What do customers say about PP Electrical Services?

Reviewers are split, with a mid-range Google score and a weaker second-platform record, both on small bases. Read both sites in full rather than averaging them, since the mix says more than either score. Ask for recent security references and the CCTV spec to judge the weaker half. Treat one platform as a starting point rather than a verdict, whatever the score.

How does PP Electrical Services compare with the others in this round?

It sits outside the ranked ten as a security-second practice rather than a security-first specialist. Premier answers the closest combined brief from inside the table, while Archer and SSAFE answer the pure security side. Compare it as an electrician that fits cameras, which is the brief it actually wants. Shortlist by brief first and rank second, since the table rewards different jobs.
