I was recommended CSB by another tradesman after other electricians charging an arm and a leg and always a struggle to agree dates when they could fit us in their busy schedule. Charlie provided a detailed estimate of price and when work could be carried out, he fulfilled on both. Very happy with the work and the lack of mess once finished, will definitely use CSB again.

Detailed reviews
Would highly recommend CSB Electrical. Sam came to quote for the work and advised us that we didn't need a full rewire that another company had said, which we appreciated. When they did the work they were punctual, polite, tidy and hardworking and finished the work in the time they said. We have also seen Charley and Bradley and have found them very professional too.
We found CSB Electrical to be extremely efficient and also provided us with exactly the look we were going for in our newly landscaped garden. We would definitely recommend them to any one needing any electrical work to be carried out.

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.
