About · Berkhamsted
One man, one van, and a phone that gets answered.
Domestic appliance repairs in Berkhamsted, Tring, Hemel Hempstead, Chesham and Aylesbury.
Who turns up
One man, one van, and a phone that gets answered.
B & R Electrical Appliance Repairs is a Berkhamsted one-man business. There is no call centre, no booking portal and no rota of subcontractors — you ring, you speak to Brian, and Brian is the person who arrives at the door.
In the words used on the business's own site: “we have been providing a comprehensive electrical appliance repair service for customers across Berkhamsted and surrounding areas for over 25 years... So why replace it when we can repair it for you?” Much of the work still arrives by word of mouth across the town.
Repairs are carried out in the home wherever they can be. Spare parts are sourced from authorised resellers when something needs replacing, and there is a range of common parts carried in the van so a good number of jobs are finished on the first visit.
What that actually means for you
The man who quotes is the man who repairs
Nothing gets lost between a call handler, a scheduler and a subcontractor, because there are none of those.
An honest answer about write-offs
“So why replace it when we can repair it for you?” is the line on the business’s own site — but a rusted drum or a cracked tub gets called what it is.
Parts sourced properly
Replacements come through a long-standing network of authorised resellers rather than whichever pattern part is cheapest this week.
Word of mouth, still
Most of the work across Berkhamsted, Tring and Hemel Hempstead arrives because somebody told somebody else.

A note on certification
Domestic appliance repair is not a registered trade in the way that gas work or fixed electrical installation is, and B & R does not claim registrations it does not hold. Anything involving gas needs a Gas Safe registered engineer instead.
