Highlights
“MB electricals installed my EV charger on behalf of ground control for my new company vehicle from openreach. The workmen were very professional and friendly and easy to get along with. Knowledgable with what they were doing and explained what everything done, helping me link up the app to my phone.”
“Matt was very knowledgeable when he came round to quote and definitely made it an easy decision to choose him. Matt kept in constant contact leading up to the scheduled appointment. Matt and Lewis arrived on time, worked tirelessly and were polite and considerate (even offering to stop drilling when I was on a work call) throughout their time here. A brilliant service and installation from MB Electrical. Would definitely recommend.”

Why this helps you judge trust: this trader is linked to a registered company with named people who are legally accountable for it, on an official register anyone can check, a layer of accountability an unregistered trader doesn't offer. Around 4 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.

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.
