“Keith was recommended to us, communication was good, he arrived when he said he would, stayed late to finish the job. Moved 2 sockets to adjacent wall and added a new socket. Really tidy, helpful, friendly. Great job. Good value for money compared to other quotes. Invoiced what he had quoted for, no surprises!”

Keith is local to us and fitted us in his really busy scheduled. He took his time to understand what was required and planned for the steps ahead to get the work done. Really professional and a joy to talk to!
Verified by Checkatrade
Keith responded within minutes to our voicemail and shortly afterwards I met him at my tenants property, where he quickly solved the problem. He was courteous and professional and we highly recommend him.

I replaced a socket myself and the RCCB kept tripping out. I was given Keith’s number from a friend so I contacted him. He talked me through the potential problem and it was sorted in under a minute. He also offered to come out on Christmas Eve if I still had issues. He was absolutely brilliant and a life saver as my wife was going to kill me for messing with electrics before Xmas! Thanks Keith I’m very grateful for your advice and time 10/10 from me!

Verified by CheckatradeExcellent electrical work
Keith tested our system, upgraded our fuse box and did alot of reorganising of sockets including taking power across several rooms. He’s simply excellent - always finding solutions. He also replaced our kitchen light and replaced a light in the downstairs cupboard. Nothing is too much trouble. We are thrilled with everything.

Verified by CheckatradeReviewed electrical failure to hot water tank
Very quick response and assessment of problem. As nothing to do did not charge a call out fee
Verified by Checkatrade
Keith was able to fit us in 'after hours' shortly after our call for help, already equipped with the right replacement, had no trouble negotiating the awkward attic space to fit it, and cleaned up properly afterwards. A ring main fuse puzzle was simply solved just as fast - we had a deadline that he accommodated.

Very happy! Keith responded quickly to my initial request, arrived less than an hour after we first spoke on the phone, and had everything fixed in 30 minutes. He was friendly, cleaned up afterward, and kept me updated with what he was doing. I would recommend him and use again

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.
