    I recently contacted APG to ask about having a solar system installed I was very impressed with the first meeting all of my questions were answered after getting the quote I made the decision to go ahead.On the day of installation everything thing went smoothly the team were professional worked hard and kept me informed of the installation. I am very satisfied with everything and the after service provided in my opinion the best decision I have ever made highly recommend APG

    James, and James (and James?) and Chris, and Chris, and Tom, and all of the other guys were brilliant and very helpful. They installed an EV charger and some aircon and were very professional throughout the whole process. I like my smart home tech, and although they didn't have a huge amount of experience in that area (and I didn't really know what I was doing) they were very patient and understanding in accomodating my requirements. I'm very happy, and we'll use them again.

    I previously used APG and they were great infact fabulous. I called them in to look at an electrical problem which they weren???t able to find a cause but charged me ??80 to not find a the fault. They did point out that some of our outside lights had water in them and I agreed with them that it was time to replace them. I asked for a quote to replace all outside lights, security lights and 2 outside sockets. A guy turned up on time to do the site survey and a quote was issued. However they couldn't find any lights from their suppliers that were matching that were with and without PIRs as we had 3 on the front of the house, 2 without and 1 with. It was important that these 3 lights looked the same as it would have looked odd. After much emailing back and forth with unsuitable ones I was given the link to their suppliers, one of which I couldn't get to work and one I looked at but nothing was suitable. I found lights that were better via Screwfix and was met with a comment about Screwfix lights not being very good. I insisted that was what I liked. I also asked in at least 2 or 3 email responses that one of the security lights be one that could be operated by remote, dimmed, turned on or off etc. Never got a response until the phone call...more on that later. Anyway what resulted was a quote that kept changing and it became more inaccurate with extra lights being added and a light without a PIR when it required one. I thought I would give them one more chance and printed off the quote and amended it in pen and scanned it and sent it back with a comment on bottom 'ring me...I'm not emailing anymore'. That seemed to have done the trick. Quote was amended and was correct. Job was booked in. A guy turned up on day arranged saying the guy who had done the quote had neglected to order the Screwfix lights and they would arrive later but he would start on the security lights and sockets. The lights from Screwfix were collected that afternoon but there were only 8 in the box. Initially the guy said the quote only had 8 Screwfix lights and when he checked it on his phone he discovered there were 9. So he had another trip out to Screwfix. Job was finished and lights look great. However despite asking for a receipt after paying promptly I am still waiting. So if you use APG be prepared for a bit of chaos along the journey. I can't fault the guy who did the actual work (although I keep finding odd bits of wire, screws and bags around my garden so he could have been tidier) but the guy who prepared the quote and should have ordered the lights was a waste of space.

    Very disappointing - APG carried out an electrical semi-rewire of my house to a poor standard throughout (e.g. consumer unit not sealed safely, a fire alarm unit has since fallen off the ceiling as it wasn???t screwed in properly, a light switch fitting nowhere near straight on the wall, outside cabling left flapping about in the wind, bathroom extractor pipe disconnected and blowing condensation into the loft??? the list goes on). The man who came to initially quote seemed highly knowledgable, and although the quote was a real fortune compared to others, I felt that I???d at least get what I paid for. Instead, they sent some young and clearly inexperienced workers round, who left a mess and even managed to accidentally bash a 10 inch hole in the stairwell ceiling with their ladders (please see photo) and leave without saying anything. When I raised it, they said I???d ???probably be able to buy a paste or something??? to patch it up. Despite complaining, and several subsequent assurances from APG to remedy the damage, nothing ever materialised and I ended up having to pay for a plasterer and painter/decorator to fix it. I therefore could not recommend APG at all.

    Having had issues with my existing shower in my en suite bathroom, I used APG to initially identify the source of the issue (that was causing a leak into the living room below) and subsequently remove the existing shower enclosure and install a new one. The initial inspection to identify the source of the issue was thorough, and various potential options to rectify the issue were all clearly explained/presented. Ultimately, I decided to have the existing shower enclosure, tray and tiles all replaced with new Perform panels fitted. From the outset, the installers were very diligent and careful - in particular, they needed to manoeuvre the large panels through various tight gaps in the house and took exceptional care. Similarly, whilst the job spanned a few days, the installers ensured the work area was spotless at the end of each day (contrast to other firms that I have used previously that only seemed to make an attempt to tidy at the end of the job). The workmanship on the install is first class and very much ???night and day??? compared to what was previously installed (in my new build). See video for finished job. Whilst I have had no issues whatsoever with the install, based on interactions to date I have every confidence that in the event of needing after sales assistance, it would be dealt with promptly and professionally. Since my experience with the bathroom install, I have also used APG to repair a leak on my boiler/subsequently service it, and also a couple of electrical jobs, including fitting some new lighting (see image). This work again was completed to the same professional standard, with the engineers/installers being friendly and amiable. Overall, I have found APG???s service and workmanship to be first class, and would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending them.
