Our story
The electrician St Albans keeps the number of.
Powering GB is led by George Bates, an electrician trusted by homeowners and landlords across St Albans and Hertfordshire. George attends every job himself — the person you speak to is the person who does the work, and who signs it off.
The jobs range from EV charger installations and consumer unit replacements to EICR safety inspections on rental properties, outdoor sockets, and emergency call-outs when other electricians let clients down. Whatever it is, the approach is the same: a full itemised quote upfront, work to the latest safety standards, and everything tested and certified. Powering GB is a NICEIC approved contractor — every job signed off to the standards that matter.
What clients mention most isn't the wiring — it's George's manner. Reliable, professional, thorough and friendly. Transparent about pricing. Stress-free from first contact to completion. That's why the reviews read the way they do, and why people keep his number and pass it on.
