"A fault developed on the fire alarm, appointed company A to attend to repair the beginning of August. Within one month, fault alerts developed again. Blocked my number and didn't want to accept responsibility. Reached out to Security Red Alert, had a call from Akhtar, asked a few questions to have a better understanding. Arrived next day and the issue corrected. Thank you for this speedy remedial work."

"Security Red Alert are an amazing company! My mums fuse board was really old and the electric kept tripping. I needed an up to date fuse board installed as an emergency. Security Red Alert contacted me immediately, went to my mums house to check out the situation, gave me a quote, and completed the work the next day. They have great communication, are super efficient, polite, knowledgeable, and extremely professional. They are fairly priced and supply you with a certificate on completion of the work. I recommend this company to anybody that requires electrical work! 10/10."
