After getting several local and national quotes, selected Newman Electrical as they were competitive and actually read the brief (a welcome change!). The quote was firmed up following a site visit, again with my specific requirements being fully understood. Turned up on the day as agreed and did an excellent job. Neat, tidy and with good product knowledge the install went smoothly. Highly recommended.

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.
