Highlights

These are the individual reviews we hold for B. Ball Contractors Ltd, including the highlights above. The 40 headline total is the review volume reported across public review sources.
Given a date to start that was a bank hol so that had to be changed, incorrect quote missing out vital part of job so unexpected extra costs added and no compromise received, project manager agreed to do an extra job creating 2 window openings whilst on site - I paid deposit to window company then he failed to do that part of the job on two occasions, massive battle to be compensated for his failing. Management wise I am very disappointed, workmen were good. Ongoing issue with leaking which took months to get someone out, Matthew takes ages to reply to emails and still have minor issue!!!
Received email response 17th July advising I would be contacted in 24 hours. Three weeks later I am still waiting for a call.

Why this helps you judge trust: this trader is linked to a registered company with named people who are legally accountable for it, on an official register anyone can check, a layer of accountability an unregistered trader doesn't offer. Around 24 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.

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.
