JBRaine Electrical is a fully qualified, fully insured domestic, commercial, and industrial electrical contractor based in Telford TF1, operated personally by Joe with over 20 years of professional electrical experience. Joe works across EV charger installation, solar panels and battery storage, full and partial house rewires, consumer unit upgrades, security cameras, smart doorbells, lighting, and all general electrical work for homes and businesses across Telford, Shropshire, and the wider Midlands.
What makes JBRaine Electrical stand out in a crowded Telford market is not the list of services — it is how Joe approaches every single job. He responds to enquiries the same day. He surveys on Saturdays. He stays on site until the security app is working and the camera coverage is confirmed as adequate. He photographs every fault he finds in an elderly parent’s ageing fuseboard before quoting a penny of remedial work. He relocates an EV charger to a different position on installation day when a customer changes their mind. And when he rewires an 1890 cottage whose original wiring and distribution board were — in one customer’s own words — so old they resembled finger paintings in ancient caves, Joe’s response is that he thoroughly enjoyed the project and loves making a house a home. That is the character of the electrician behind JBRaine Electrical.
EV charger installation is one of the most frequently requested services Joe carries out across Telford and Shropshire. He installs all major charger brands — including Zappi, Hypervolt, and hybrid car charger points — covering new installations, relocations between properties, WiFi reconnection, and aftercare advice as standard parts of every job.
When a Telford customer sent Joe a Saturday morning message about an EV charger installation, he arrived to survey within the hour — talking through all the options, issuing a written quote the same day, and booking the work in immediately. When another customer decided on installation day to relocate their Zappi charger to a different position than originally planned, Joe adapted without issue, completing all works professionally and cleanly. When a first-time EV owner needed a consultative service covering all the questions a new electric vehicle owner has, Joe covered every base — leaving the customer happy enough to refer him to friends and family. One customer had their charger removed from one property and reinstalled at a new address — excellent, clean, tidy work at a very reasonable cost with clear communication throughout.
All EV charger installations are fully certified on completion, with all relevant documentation issued as part of the standard service. Free quotations are available across the Telford and Shropshire area.
Joe installs solar PV panels and battery storage systems for Telford homeowners and commercial clients as part of JBRaine Electrical’s renewable energy capability. Solar and battery storage installations are issued with all relevant certification on completion. For homeowners looking to combine a solar installation with an EV charger — charging the car from the panels and maximising self-consumption — Joe’s experience across both technologies means the complete system is specified and installed by one trusted person rather than requiring two separate contractors to coordinate around each other.
Full and partial house rewires are carried out by Joe across Telford and Shropshire, for properties of all ages and conditions. Joe has rewired a Victorian-era 1890 cottage — with original wiring so deteriorated that the entire installation needed replacement — completing the project to current 18th Edition BS7671 standards, with the customer describing the finished result as outstanding. A reviewer who engaged Joe for multiple jobs over an extended period, including a new consumer unit, confirms Joe was exceptionally reliable and consistent across every visit — honest throughout, keeping the customer updated at every stage, very tidy, and cleaning up after every single job. That consistency across a sustained working relationship is one of the clearest signals of a tradesperson whose standards do not vary depending on how closely they think they are being watched.
Consumer unit upgrades to current 18th Edition BS7671 standards are carried out by Joe across Telford and the surrounding area, with all notifiable work certified and a Building Regulations compliance certificate issued on completion. For customers whose existing consumer unit is ageing, lacks RCD protection, or has been flagged on an EICR report as requiring replacement, Joe provides a written quotation before any work is agreed — including, where an elderly relative’s installation is involved, a clear photographic record of every issue found so that family members can see exactly what is being recommended and why, before committing to any expenditure.
Joe installs security cameras, Ring floodlight cameras and doorbells, wired video doorbells, smart lighting, and floodlights across Telford and Shropshire — and he does not consider the job done until the system is fully working in the customer’s hands. A Telford reviewer confirms Joe installed a security camera and remained on site until the app was fully configured and the camera was confirmed as providing adequate coverage of the area it was installed to protect. Another reviewer confirms Joe fitted a Ring floodlight and doorbell, added additional sockets throughout the property, and installed six ceiling lights — vacuuming up any mess throughout the visit, at a great price. Both reviewers confirmed their intention to use Joe again for future work.
Beyond the major project categories, Joe handles the full range of everyday domestic and commercial electrical work across Telford and Shropshire — additional socket installation, pendant and ceiling fan light fitting, outdoor socket relocation and upgrade, fault finding, floodlight installation, oven and appliance connection, and all general electrical maintenance. A Local Guide reviewer confirms Joe relocated and upgraded an outdoor socket and fitted a bedroom ceiling fan light in the same visit — describing his workmanship as very neat, his knowledge as exceptional, and the experience as a pleasure throughout. All general electrical work is carried out to the same 18th Edition standard as major installations, with the same tidy working practice and the same clear communication that customers across Telford describe consistently in their reviews.
JBRaine Electrical is one of the very few Telford-based electricians with confirmed named experience of boat and narrowboat electrical installations. Joe advised a Shropshire narrowboat owner on the correct light types for the installation, attended to fit all lights and switches, arrived on time, worked professionally throughout, and left the boat tidy on completion. If you own a narrowboat, canal boat, or leisure vessel moored in Shropshire or the wider Midlands and need electrical work carried out by a qualified electrician with direct narrowboat experience, Joe is able to help.
