Really can't rate or recommend Mark and his team more highly. They were excellent from start to finish. Every interaction was polite and professional and the work (fuse box, wiring, new indoor and outdoor lights, fans etc.) was completed expertly with no fuss or mess. Harry and Adam who completed the work kept me informed at every stage with well thought out and communicated suggestions to the options available. Great job. Will be having them back for future works.

I could not have asked for a better job! Mark was fantastic with coming around to do the initial quote and fully explained everything. Then Harry and Adam the electricians who did the work were top notch from start to finish. They explained the plan, kept us in the loop, completed the job perfectly and were so tidy! We had an extra fuse fitted and wired down to our kitchen to allow a second oven and they fitted our 2 new ovens. If I ever need any further electrical work, I will 100% be getting in touch again. Thank you so much!
The electrician found the fault and corrected in a very short time and made sure everything was working correctly.

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.
