Highlights
“Excellent work, trustworthy and reliable. Highly recommend”
“From the word go Darran was so easy to communicate with. A highly experienced, skilled electrician, and a genuinely great guy to deal with. Totally trustworthy - Darran has an access code to my property, and often goes in at weekends, evenings or unsupervised to carry out the necessary repairs. Always advises on the best solution and provides all the appropriate certificates required by law.”
Detailed reviews
Darran fitted electricity to our garage as well as internal light fittings. Although he had a contract job to complete he took time out of his day to bring us cable so it could be buried under our new driveway. He checks with you what you require and makes suggestions of how best to approach the work. He also sourced parts for us like sockets, switches and a circuit board. Darran completed the work to a very high standard and is clean and tidy. Nothing is too much trouble for him. I highly recommend Darran to anyone who needs an honest, friendly service
Darren gave me a price many months ago, no pressure. We decided to have the job done and he fitted us in within 2 weeks, he fully investigated our solution before work started. He fully replaced and upgraded our heating. Darren is meticulous, he is a perfectionist, work done and complete well within suggested timescales. We are delighted would definitely recommend.
Mr Harris confirmed the booking the night before. He arrived in good time, carried out the job efficiently and charges were reasonable. Very pleasant gentleman as well.
Darran and his team are a rare find. They are professional, complete work to a high standard, and go the extra mile to help out. From the quote to completing work, Darran explained everything clearly and was happy to answer any questions. He provided a quote in good time, completed the job to a high standard, and left the house very tidy. It’s nice to find a trustworthy electrician, and I can’t recommend him enough.
I sought this trader via the Which? Trusted Trader website for a reputable electrician for my father whom required a small electrical job to sought an earthing issue out. Darren and his colleague called out the same day my father contacted him. They undertook the job there and then at a good price for fast and efficient service. Highly recommended!

I contacted Darran following 2 kitchen appliances suddenly getting no power. Having shared a description and photo he went out of his way to give me a call and discuss. He kindly diagnosed the issue and advised how to resolve it allowing me to fix it. It is hard to find decent and honest tradespeople but I am confident Darran is just that. I will absolutely be using him for any work going forward.

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.
