about us
Fully qualified and certified local electrician, for all types of electrical installation and repair. 24-Hour call out and Emergency service.
Founded in 1996, Gareth Rees Electrical has steadily built a reputation of reliability and excellence, second-to-none.
Based in Newport South Wales, Gareth is a fully qualified and insured, light commercial and domestic electrician.
Since studying electrical engineering at college, Gareth specialised in ICT and Data networking, analysis and warehousing for Lloyds TSB Bank before setting up G&G Energy Management Ltd, (Newport) with his wife Gemma, in 1996.
Today, over 90% of his work is referral-based (word-of-mouth) and is primarily in the domestic field. Whatever your electrical requirements, Gareth guarantees that he will not be beaten for total honesty, transparency and quality of service.
“I take an open-minded approach to any work that comes my way. I offer practical advice, will assist with planning and layouts, or just do what’s required (provided it conforms to regulation). - What the customer wants, they get, every time.”
Past work has ranged from the electrical installation of a swimming pool, to changing a light bulb for an old-age-pensioner – and quite literally, just about everything and anything else, in-between.
Qualified to the highest level – City and Guilds 17th Edition, C&G 2391 Inspection and Testing, NICEIC Approved Contractor, ‘Part-P’ Registered – Gareth is professionally assessed on an annual basis, ensuring that he is kept up to date on all legislative requirements and new technology and advancements. Gareth is also CRB certified.
From Hi-spec re-wires, to new installations, security lighting, security alarm systems, CCTV installation, fault-finding, safety testing and safety reports – no job is too big or too small.
Gareth also offers special rates for OAP’s.
“I was born and brought up in Newport (Gaer) and the furthest I’ve lived away from here, was for 12-months - in Cwmbran! Like all places, Newport has received some bad press over the years, but I can honestly say I have a genuine affection for this City, and I love the community spirit that really does exist around here. Many of my customers have been with me for years – some, since the day I started – and they, like all new customers, will only ever get the best possible service that I can provide.”

Gareth was our hero on Sunday. Whilst doing maintenance work in The Annex all the electrics blew, the first person we thought of was Gareth, he was with us within the hour. 40 minutes later all electrics where tested and fixed. We highly recommend you use Gareth. Amazing job well done.
Gareth is very reliable and reasonably priced. Highly recomnended as he always has his customer's interest at heart.
I am happy to recommend Gareth Rees Electrical to anyone.His work is always of a high standard and he takes care to ensure that it is completed on time and with as little disruption as possible. I have never had any cause to complain about any aspect of his work.
Although Gareth couldn't come yesterday, he took the trouble to call me, while he was under some considerable worry over his child.
I have used Gareth for years now and he has always been very punctual and friendly. He is very reasonable and works to a very high standard. I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone. B Lewis - Rogerstone
