Highlights
“I highly recommend 1st Class Electrical. Today Dan from 1st Class Electrical came to fix a problem caused by another company. I will definitely be using 1st Class Electrical again for any of my electrical needs. I called yesterday, and they took the time to check their jobs to see if they could fit my job in this week. Which they did. Dan came at the end of his working day. He called me about 10/15 mins before he arrived to let me know he was on his way to me. He was friendly and professional. And he took the time to take his shoes off when coming into my home. And he fixed my problem.”

Electrical work in homes in England & Wales should be done by a registered competent person who can self-certify it meets the Part P safety rules. Check they're on the official register.
Check the electrical registerIn England and Wales, notifiable electrical work (new circuits, a consumer unit, anything in a bathroom or kitchen) must by law be signed off under Part P of the Building Regulations. Confirm they will handle that.
Prefer an electrician registered with a government-approved competent-person scheme (NICEIC, NAPIT or ELECSA) so they can self-certify the work meets the wiring regulations.
Insist on the Electrical Installation Certificate (or Minor Works Certificate) when the job is done. It is your proof the work is safe and compliant, and you will need it if you ever sell.
