I ordered an air conditioning unit…

I ordered an air conditioning unit through Alert electrical, there were delays to my order that were no direct fault of theirs (2019 model awaiting release from Italy), however they owned the issue, kept me informed and got it resolved.
I was impressed with their customer focus and will be using them again in the future

Great range of products at a good price

I only found Alert Electrical recently and was impressed with their very wide range of electrical products (more, naturally, than a general building supplier) and good pricing. As I'm not far from their Derby base, it was easy to make an order to be picked up from there a few days later, but I could have opted for home delivery at a very reasonable delivery charge - or free over £100.

It is well subscribing to their regular email newsletter, not just for general news about products, but also for manager's specials. I was able to grab a small extractor fan at almost half their usual (already competitive) price.

All the staff I spoke to have been polite and helpful.

Highly recommended for a seamless transaction

Having read the reviews of Alert Electrical I decided to buy a couple of alarm PIRs. The transaction from selection, payment and delivery through Yodel was seamless. I ordered early evening and they were delivered next morning. Highly recommended based on my experience.

Further to your outstanding and very …

Further to your outstanding and very professional work we received recently on our property I would obviously like to thank Chris and yourself and I will certainly retain your details for possible future work regarding electrics and security.

Normally I cant stand workman in my on home, but Chris was reliable honest and very respectful. a true asset to the business.

I also have no hesitation in recommending your company in the future to other people.

Extremely efficient

I ordered from Alert Electrical because they were by far the cheapest supplier for the fan heater I wanted. I was very impressed with the service - the heater arrived the next day.

Impressed by the good customer service

A house alarm bell-box that I had bought from alertelectrical developed a fault after several months.
I emailed them, unsure if I should be going to the manufacturer or to them to claim under the warranty(or how). Alertelectrical arranged for the faulty box to be picked up and a replacement to be shipped by next day delivery all at their own cost.
Good service. Just what you want.
