I am very pleased and impressed with the EICR and remedial works carried out by Christian James. He was highly professional and competent, efficient and considerate. His work was excellent value for money and he made sure it was as unobtrusive as possible. I have already recommended him to everyone I know.
Very professional, would thoroughly recommend.
I highly recommend Christian, he changed some light fittings for me. Amazing customer service and I am very happy with the work he did. I would definitely go back to him for other electrical work!
Christian was recommended to me by a friend after I had been let down badly by British Gas under their Homecare 4 package. He carried out the works in a third of the time British Gas told me and at less than 20% of the price they quoted. He was polite , incredibly tidy and all was done with minimum fuss. In particular and this itself gets him a 5 star rating was his kind consideration to my wife who is bed bound in the lounge where the works were carried out. She was very happy that he worked around her.
Christian came to investigate a fault with the upstairs lighting circuit which involved locating wiring and fitments in the roof space. He went about the work in a professional and methodical way, in unpleasant conditions, regularly keeping me informed of his progress and subsequently locating and remedying the problem. Christian is professional, conscientious, punctual, polite and friendly. I was very pleased with his workmanship and will have no hesitation recommending him to family and friends.

Professional and reliable- Christian did a thorough job and was very tidy! He kept us informed and turned up when agreed- exactly what you want, but rarely find! I will use again and would highly recommend!
Excellent response to a weekend emergency. I would highly recommend this trader.
The job was completed immediately and the person who installed my new cooker hood was extremely helpful and careful due to the COVID-19 pandemic. He was very polite and respectful. The quality of his work was outstanding.
Really good local service. Would definitely use again and recommend!
Installed burglar alarm, sensors, fuse box, 6 outdoor lights, junction boxes, sockets, re-wiring etc. Every time Christian discovered something, he brought it to our attention straight away, he explained why it was unsafe and why it had to be repaired or replaced. Christian was always on time and on some occasions worked beyond his hours. Christian and his co-worker were polite, friendly and pleasant and they both communicated well with each other. They were hardworking, sometimes in wet, cold and muddy surroundings. Christian had to work in cramped and unpleasant conditions in my loft and never complained once. The workmanship was of a very high standard, and they were always very tidy. Christian is without doubt well educated, knowledgeable, trustworthy and passionate about his job, his priority is safety and I feel very confident that he has made our home a much safer place to live in. CJ Electrical is now saved on my phone and I highly recommend them.
Christian the electrician was polite, helpful and efficient. His calm manner put me at ease, he sorted out the problem most effectively.
Christian recently re-wired my Georgian conversion flat. Christian has been punctual and courteous from the first meeting to completion. He has worked diligently, thinking of clever solutions to minimise disturbance to the old walls and left the flat clean and tidy at the end of each working day. The works have been completed to a very high standard, with minimal mess. He has been a pleasure to deal with and highly recommend him.

Worth checking yourself
Always confirm credentials and quotes with the business directly before hiring.
Verify at the sourceCheck them yourself
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.
