Highlights
“Mike was great from start to finish. He removed our old doorbell and made all the electics safe. Then he installed a video doorbell and an external camera floodlight, connected to the mains. He explained where best to position everything and carried out the work with professionalism. He cleaned up after himself, and I found the quote fair. Have used Mike in the past for fitting all our lights when we moved home, and will definitely use again. Highly recommend.”
“Mike has sorted numerous electrical issues for me. On this occasion it was working out why my electric shower had stopped working, he was exceptionally thorough & eventually found an issue with the fuse board, which he immediately sourced new components for & fixed. He explained each element as he tested it & checked before going ahead with buying the replacement parts that the price was ok. Mike always returns calls, explains what he is doing and does a really great job. I’d definitely recommend him.”

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.
