Highlights
“It's the first time I have used Allan but he came at the time he'd be here, was very polite and did the job quickly but professionally, great job thank you 😁”
“Allan came recommended by wider family. Half our fuse box stopped working suddenly and thought we needed it replaced. He was able to diagnose the issue over the phone and talked us through how to get the power back on over the phone. He then came out the next morning to fix the issue which was not the fuse box but a faulty wire to a socket. Would highly recommend as he gave honest and reliable advice over the phone to help us understand what had gone wrong. Then was able to sort the issue quickly the following morning for a very reasonable price.”

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.
