“I asked Keith to do a whole-house electrical check and to replace the old ‘fuse’ box with a modern consumer unit. He did this work excellently and with minimum impact on daily living. The final solution was neat and tidy and fully functional. Keith found several items that needed attention and was quick to help remedy them. In addition Keith was full of useful advice on related matters like installing an EV charger. I thoroughly recommend Electrikcity to anyone wanting electrical work done.”

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.
