“As soon as we spoke with Matt about the kitchen conversion, we had a very positive impression. He was very knowledgeable giving advice and suggestions about the ideas we had, explaining what was and wasn’t possible rather than just agreeing and saying ‘yeah, yeah, no problem’. He is a very conscientious worker paying attention to detail and ensuring the work area was tidy upon completion. We are extremely pleased we asked Matt to carry out the electrical installation and rework of our kitchen conversion project and have no hesitation in recommending him.”

Highlights
“Matt and the people working with him were always polite and courteous. Ours was a complex job over three separate buildings with work spread out to fit our schedule and other trades, and involved new or rewiring, including one long supply cable run. They always cleaned up at the end of each visit and left the site tidy, and I would recommend his services to others.”
Detailed reviews
These are the individual reviews we hold for Lumos Electrical, including the highlights above. The 5 headline total is the review volume reported across public review sources.
We were told a new consumer unit was needed as part of a kitchen replacement which we were not told at the start. Over a year later we are still waiting for the legally required sign off to us and the council despite repeated requests . We have since brought in another electrician to do this sign off at our expense.

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.
