Carter's ElectricalFamily Electricians · Wantage

About · a family firm

A family you can name.

Carter's Electrical Services is a genuine family firm, led by Simon Carter and based on Orchard Way in Wantage. Emma Carter runs operations and looks after quotes and scheduling; Ricky is our electrician; and nephews Alfie and Spencer are learning the trade as apprentices. It's a small, close team — and that closeness is exactly what customers write about.

You can see it in the reviews: a flawless 5.0 average across 83 detailed Google reviews, with Simon, Emma and Ricky thanked by first name again and again. People mention fair, honest pricing, spotless finishes, and a genuine care — one family thanked us for treating their elderly father, a retired electrical engineer with dementia who liked to ‘supervise’, with dignity and respect throughout.

The work spans everything electrical. For homes: EV chargers, rewires and renovations, fuseboard upgrades, smart home automation, lighting, EICR testing, and emergency callouts. For businesses: commercial contracting and fit-outs, planned maintenance, fire and security, data networking, commercial EV charging, and solar and renewables. We install on the systems that lead the field — Hypervolt, Ohme, Zappi, Loxone, Rako, Lutron, KNX and Ajax.

Behind it all are the credentials that matter: NICEIC approved, TrustMark registered, on the Competent Person Scheme, OZEV approved and MCS certified — and a one-year workmanship and materials guarantee on every installation. We trade as Oxford Smart Homes Ltd (VAT 480804488).

Alfie and Spencer are Simon's nephews, learning the trade the way it should be — on real jobs, alongside family. When you book Carter's, these are the people who turn up.

Every star earned on the job.

Ricky, the electrician who fitted the charger was amazing - he quickly identified a solution that meant no cables between the fuse box, meter and charger were visible. He also left everything spotless. I'd highly recommend Carters Electrical Services.

Emma was brilliant with communication over email (and patient while I requested a handful of different quotes). Very reasonably priced imo.

We are over the moon with our experience with Carters - communicative, quick and really fair price. We had a few pretty dangerous things that needed sorting from the previous owners and it was done with a 'not a problem' attitude.

Simon provided an outstanding service from start to finish. He was not only highly professional and knowledgeable, but also incredibly friendly and approachable. I truly appreciated his attention to detail and the care he took in his work.
