“Very pleased to recommend McGuinness Group. They responded to my initial call promptly and professionally, maintained excellent communication and arrived when agreed. Received a quote very quickly and the work was completed within 24 hours. They were polite, professional and really took the time to talk to me about the problem and the options available. The work was completed with minimal disruption, with total flexibility around my work and domestic commitments, and they cleaned up afterwards. They will be my go to in future for any electrical work.”

Highlights
“Fantastic...couldn't have been more helpful. Got everything up and running for us after a burst pipe. Arrived at short notice right on time and knew their stuff. Couldn't have asked for any more!”
“We cannot praise this company enough, Johnathan and his team made what could have been such a stressful experience into something liveable. We found him through a recommendation, and completely understand why our friend did so, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend onwards to our own family. The team have been lovely to deal to with, and each tradesman has been so professional and polite. Communication has been excellent, and any work in the future will be booked with them again, unquestionably. We're so relieved and grateful to have found such a great team of builders and electricians.”

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.
