Ben saved us the day before Christmas when we discovered that the house was not safe - no circuit-breaker. He made the house safe and then came back after the holidays to complete the work. He was prompt, professional, friendly, tidy and the cost was entirely reasonable. He came to us very highly recommended and we were delighted with his work. Definitely recommend him.

Detailed reviews
Not all electricians are keen to do this, but I found Ben on Check a Trade and he arrived when he said he would and did an excellent job. Very knowledgeable about his work,he completed what I asked him to do very quickly and at a very reasonable price.
Ben answered our emergency call immediately, and completed the work that same evening, despite it being the Saturday before Christmas. Can't thank him enough for his professional, friendly help.

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.
