Highlights
“Chased a number of lines through the walls for mirror and extractor fan electrics as well as installing ceiling lights and moving switches. Really pleased with the results and even came back a couple of weeks later to check things over and explain how the fan works (not as straight forward as you'd think...).”
“Darren gave me a very reasonable quote and was professional to boot! He was excellent at communicating with me, very reliable and did a fab job. He even gave me advice on further work which wasn't about securing more work for himself, it was very much just to help me. I will absolutely be hiring Darren again for my next electrics job.”

Verify at the sourceCheck them yourself
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.
