Meet your electrician

Hi, I'm Bobby.

I run BDH Electrical from Cardiff and look after homes and businesses right across South Wales. When you call, you get me: the person who prices the job, does the work and signs it off.

I've worked on everything from domestic fuse boards to large commercial control panels, so no job is too small or too technical. I turn up when I say I will, explain things in plain English and leave your place as tidy as I found it.

Outside of work I'm a dad to two young kids. I work all hours to provide for my family and set the kids up for the future, which is why I treat every job, and every customer's home, with the same care I'd want in my own.
