As before James did a first class job with attention to detail and nothing was too much trouble. Very reasonably priced too." > Source: Customer in Greater London (5.0, via Which? Trusted Traders) > "I needed a couple of pendant light fittings replaced. James came at the agreed time, worked quickly and tidily, and charged a sensible price. He was very helpful. It is really useful to have found someone who will do a very small job." > Source: Daniel in Greater London (5.0, via Which? Trusted Traders) > "I invited James to come and fit a replacement ceiling lamp, having used James a month earlier to fix a faulty time switch controlling the staircase lighting in our in the communal building. I have a modern-style Italian made standing lamp at my desk and a couple of days before James' visit, the lamp stopped working and it continued to fail with a replacement bulb. Having fitted the ceiling light, I asked James if he could check the standing lamp and he quickly identified the fault as being with its small 12V transformer, not the bulb. The transformer was fitted in a small transparent box and given its small size, James at first thought that I would have to try and find a replacement part from Italy. However he then went to his van and brought up a 12V transformer which at first appeared to be slightly too large to fit in the box, but by clever adjustment and realigning the wiring, he was able to get it to fit. The lamp then worked perfectly (with the old bulb). This repair illustrated not only James knowledge as an electrician but also his practical skills to solve a problem. All the work was carried out in a very clean and tidy manner. James will be my first port of call for electrical problems in future and I would not hesitate to recommend him to others." > Source: Customer in Greater London (5.0, via Which?

Trusted Traders - Public evidence last checked June 2026 ## 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: 07825 447057 - Website: http://www.electricjames.com --- Source: MyTrustedTraders, https://mytrustedtraders.com/traders/electric-james Real public evidence only: every figure traces to a named source and is cross-checked.
