Verified by CheckatradeInterior and exterior lighting + new sockets
Thank goodness we found Daryl on Checkatrade - he's been a blessing and this is the third time we've called on his services. Daryl is 100% in his work, being professional but friendly, works in an organised and tidy fashion, and is happy to help us make decisions, using his expert advice and explaining our options in a way we can understand. We couldn't be happier with the work done for us and, on top of the excellent quality, he is very fair with the cost of his work. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend MCR Electrical.

Daryl and his team turned up on time, kept me up to date with their progress, tidied up beyond the small mess they had made and finished before the date they said they would. I've passed his details on to friends who are wanting work done and I'd use him again in a heartbeat.

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.
