About ProVolt

Local electricians, quietly powering homes since 2011.

We're a small, family-run team based in Brixton. Big enough to answer the phone at 2am, small enough that the person who quotes your job is the one who turns up to do it.

Our story

Built one recommendation at a time.

Most of our work still comes from neighbours telling neighbours. We think that's the best measure of an electrician there is.

  1. 2011

    One van, one electrician

    Alex starts ProVolt from a lock-up in Brixton after ten years with a large contractor.

  2. 2015

    The team grows

    Priya joins as our first inspector and landlord EICRs become a core part of the business.

  3. 2019

    Commercial work

    Out-of-hours fit-outs and maintenance for local shops, cafés and offices.

  4. 2022

    EV & renewables

    Tom joins to lead EV charger installs and smart load management.

  5. Today

    Still local

    Four vans, a dedicated scheduler, and the same promise: fixed prices, tidy work, certified.

How we work

Four things we won't compromise on.

Safety first, always

We'd rather lose a job than leave something unsafe. If we find a danger, we tell you and make it safe.

On time, or we call

Arrival windows are two hours. If we're running late, you'll hear it from us, not wonder.

Straight talking

No jargon and no upselling. You get options, honest advice and a price in writing.

Leave it better

Dust sheets down, shoe covers on, and a proper tidy-up before we go.

The team

The people who'll be in your home.

Uniformed, DBS-checked and carrying ID — and we'll text you their name and photo before they arrive.
