Cresswell Electrics advised on the system required, worked well to the UK networks timetable as well as the issues that arose with the age of the existing electrics. Also extremely helpful with the ev charging set up which has its own quirks. They have done all the work on our new kitchen, upgraded garden lighting systems for us as well as smaller jobs. All the work is done to a high standard. They are professional, punctual and neat, always obliging and pleasant to deal with." > Source: Which? Trusted Traders Consumer (5.0, via Which?

Trusted Traders - Monday–Friday: 7:30am–6pm ## Before you hire an electrician _What to check when choosing this kind of trade (general guidance, not a claim about this business):_ - In 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. - Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile. - Check any credential evidence, and that the business details independently check out. ## Contact - Phone: 07789 390253 - Website: http://www.cresswellelectrical.co.uk --- Source: MyTrustedTraders, https://mytrustedtraders.com/traders/cresswell-electrical-ltd Real public evidence only: every figure traces to a named source, with evidence held from 2 named public sources.
