> "Tapiwa fixed my washing machine at really short notice. It had stopped working and was leaking, and I wasn’t sure what to do. Tapiwa came around fully prepared with all the necessary tools and equipment and had it fixed in no time. Lightening Fast is definitely true to name! He knew exactly what to do, and I cannot thank him enough. Highly recommend and would definitely use again, especially for short-notice jobs. Great service. Thank you!"

## 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 verified credentials, and that the business details independently check out.
