I can recommend Leon from Electrical Initiative hands down. He’s efficient, always gives a specific time slot, is punctual and does a great job. He’s been on my contact list for the last eight years, and any electrical work he is the first person I call.

Another recommendation for Leon / Electrical Initative!

He came round yesterday for the first step of a job, which involved testing the wiring in my flat with a view to installing a new consumer unit. Once done, he gave me his report and recommendations, and I look forward to his next visit. What impressed me is that he has a very "holistic" view of the property, and explained to me how things work and how things are connected (not just electricity, plumbing and gas are part of it too). The main issue with my flat is the outdated earthing cables - because standards have changed since 30 years ago!

I'll add that he responded to my initial text message within one hour. He came round four days later, even working on a Saturday. He is very friendly and approachable, obviously knowledgeable, and affordable prices too. I fully expect to be leaving another positive feedback post before long.

Leon from electrical initiative changed our old skool kitchen lights with modern dimmable down lighters. I'm really pleased with the work, fitted to a very high standard. Leon has it all, excellent electrician, polite, easy to get on with, turned up on time, excellent communication and charged at fair value. I highly recommend his services.

Hi joined EDF only to post what a cracking electrical service I got from Leon. 
Bit old skool in not much communication on WhatsApp (at least until the end) but a perfect result for a variety of issues - some big, some small in East Dulwich terraced house. 
half the price of a quote I had and with no rather menacing  ‘until we find the faults the clock will be ticking as will your bill’. 
He quoted and delivered on time. 
Will be using him in future and recommending to anybody in the area.

Following up on my post of May 12, Leon of Electrical Initative arrived yesterday and fitted my new consumer unit.

He did an extremely thorough job, not rushing anything, which I find very reassuring. So often I get a repair job where the impatient workers seem to be in a tearing hurry to finish up, move their parked van so they won't get a ticket, get to the next job, and collect their money. Not Leon. After about two hours of careful work and tests, made all the more challenging by his having to work in a cramped space under the stairs, I now have an up-to-date consumer unit installed, one that's up to code with the latest regulations.

He also found an extra 20 mins to fit a new bathroom light for me, and adjusted the settings for me too. Two jobs on a single call, as he'd promised he would - what more could you want?

I whole-heartedly recommend this honest and trustworthy trader to anyone who needs electrical work done in SE London.

Leon fixed my garden and kitchen lights after we had 5 previous electricians coming in and not being able to fix it. We were desperate but he fixed it all in one go. He was super professional, efficient and on time. 
 

I am a happy customer and wouldn’t hesitate to call him again. 
 

Thanks Leon

Leon is super-helpful and very easy to deal with. Called him first thing on Saturday morning and he was here within a few hours. Quickly identified the problem, sorted it, didn’t charge me for a part either. I really recommend him. 

I would throughly recommend Leon of Electrical Initiatives Ltd. He is very professional and polite and courteous, and was able to be flexible to fit around my tenants, even being understanding when access arrangements didn’t work out the first time.

His prices are reasonable and his work thorough. Leon has done a few jobs for me now and I won’t hesitate to come back to him for any future electrical work needed.

Leon has just completed a job for me which he did perfectly. He was good at communicating and securing an available date. I found him to be punctual, helpful and efficient with a friendly demeanor. He went above and beyond and I’m really glad to have found a reliable and trustworthy electrician. I highly recommend him!

Another recommendation for Leon Duffy. He fixed a tricky light switch and investigated another electrical issue for me. He kindly followed up with information to help me decide on next steps - will call on Leon again to help with these. 100% recommended.

Further recommendation for Leon from myself. We got in touch over the weekend and he promptly arranged to come by one evening that week. Leon was very helpful, personable and did a good job. Will definitely be getting in touch with future jobs.

I would like to endorse Leon. Due to a dodgy fuse all ceiling lights were out. He found and fixed the offending fuse, explained what had happened and offered advice on updating the fuses, also sending a link of where to buy them, super helpful.

    • Hi if anyone has one pm me cheers 
    • You can always check when they registered on the forum, if you are suspicious. But I recommended Aria, and it certainly wasn't my only post on here, and it was a genuine recommendation. ETA: And he didn't ask me to make it, to the best of my recollection. But even if he had, many local tradespeople ask people to post on here if they are happy with the work that has been done.
    • I am not a patient at this practice, but surely it is more sensible to have an initial  phone discussion, as often the GP wouldn't need to see someone face to face unless they actually needed to physically examine them? This then leaves the available face to face appointments for patients who need them. And if during  the phone call the GP felt you needed examining, then arrangements could be made for a face to face. If you feel your ailment is such that you will definitely need to be physically examined, can you not explain that to the receptionist?
    • Give Labour a chance, they've only been in government for a short time, and they inherited a mess! As regards the notice boards, to the best of my recollection they were originally intended as community notice boards, and certainly not for advertising local businesses (who would decide which businesses  should have the limited space on the boards, anyway?) East Dulwich may have become more gentrified since the boards were first introduced, but that surely doesn't mean they should now be completely  taken over for the benefit of  the "middle classes", to the exclusion of everybody else? As  NewWave says, surely these people have other ways to find out about groups and events of interest to them, which the "non middle classes" may not have access to, and even if they did may not be able to afford them. Several people including myself have complained to councillors about the state of the noticeboards in the past.  I think one of the issues is that they were originally maintained by local volunteers, who may have either moved out of the area or lost interest - or given up in despair when the boards were flypostered and/or vandalised. I completely  agree that the boards should be used for information about not for profit organisations in the area, but if regular maintenance can't be provided and/or they continue to be vandalised, then I think it would be better if they were removed altogether.
