“He was the only electrician we could find who would come out to an emergency on a Sunday afternoon. He was clear with the cost of the call out charge and hourly rate and said that he specialised in diagnosing electrical problems. He arrived when he said he would and very quickly realised what the problem was, took pictures on his phone and explained what had happened and how he could fix it. He worked quickly and efficiently to complete the work, leaving the area tidy and was very polite and courteous. Would highly recommend and would use him again in future.”

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 18 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.
