Celebrating 20 Years of Powering Basingstoke

This month marks something pretty special for us — 20 years since Gary Usher first started GU Solutions.

Back then, it was just Gary, a van, and a simple promise: turn up when you say you will, do the job properly, and treat every customer like a neighbour. Two decades later, that same promise still drives everything we do.

From humble beginnings, we’ve grown into a trusted local team of 10 qualified electricians and a dedicated customer care team, working across Basingstoke and the surrounding areas.

Over the years, we’ve helped thousands of homeowners, landlords, and businesses with everything from new lighting and rewires to solar installations and energy-saving upgrades.

A lot has changed since those early days — new technologies, new regulations, and new ways to make homes and businesses more efficient.

But one thing hasn’t: our commitment to honest advice, quality workmanship, and good old-fashioned service.

We’d like to say a big thank you to all our customers, past and present, for trusting us with your homes and projects.

Your support is what keeps our business growing — and what’s kept Gary and the team smiling for the last 20 years.

Here’s to the next 20 years of keeping Basingstoke powered, safe, and moving forward.

Gary Usher is the Founder and Managing Director of GU Solutions Ltd, based in Basingstoke. He started the business back in 2005 with one simple goal — to provide honest, high-quality electrical work that people can rely on.

Nearly two decades later, that same commitment still drives everything Gary and the team do. From full rewires and consumer unit upgrades to EV charger installations, solar PV, and battery storage systems, GU Solutions has become known locally for doing things properly — no shortcuts, just solid, professional workmanship.

Gary’s background as a hands-on electrician means he understands what matters most to customers: safety, clear communication, and turning up when you say you will!

When he’s not out on site or running the business, you’ll most likely find Gary on the golf course, unwinding with friends and trying to shave a few strokes off his handicap (with mixed results!).
