“Telephoned Peter on the evening April 9th and explained that I had a problem with my lights. He said he would try to call in the following day to check the wiring. He was as good as his word. He arrived after work and resolved the problem within half an hour! I would thoroughly recommend Peter and will definitely use him again in the future.”

Helpful
My immersion heater wasn't working. Rang Peter who solved the problem for me free within 30 seconds without even having to come out to visit. Top result and MANY thanks.
Excellent service, attentive, kind and professional.
Peter carried out an EICR on our property in Bromley. He was communicative throughout and on the day of the job he arrived early, always a good sign for me. He was very helpful in explaining what he had to do and was very friendly while also very professional. The price of the service provided was fair - not the cheapest but also not expensive. I imagine had I chosen a 'cheap' trader then I might have had to put up with a rushed service, and perhaps someone not as attentive who may well have missed some things. Not worth the risk for me, you get what you pay for. I can highly recommend Peter.
Excellent Service - Highly Recommended
Peter Whiting recently completed electrical work at our home on 22 October 2025, and we couldn't be more pleased with the service we received. From start to finish, Peter was exceptionally professional while maintaining a friendly and approachable manner. He arrived promptly, worked efficiently, and took the time to explain what he was doing and answer all our questions. His workmanship was of the highest standard, and he left our home neat and tidy after completing the job. What particularly impressed us was his attention to detail and genuine commitment to getting the job done right. Peter clearly takes pride in his work, and this shows in the quality of the results. We would not hesitate to use Peter Whiting Electrical Contractors again for any future electrical work, and we highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, skilled, and trustworthy electrician.
Reliable and Efficient
This is the second time Peter has done work for me. Both times he has been reliable and efficient. He rings to say he is on his way. He replaced outside lights, smoke alarms, a shaver box, two broken switches and two pendants, all done quickly. All debris tidied up. Invoice came through the next mornng. Would recommend without hesitation.
Top class electrician
We chose Peter based on all the 5-star reviews, which are totally justified. A good communicator, personable, polite, and totally trustworthy. He is very professional, extremely knowledgeable, and does neat and tidy work to a very high standard. He arrived on time and explained everything he would be doing across the 2 days, and the price was very reasonable. I have no hesitation in recommending Peter for any electrical work and will definitely be asking him to complete work for us in the future.
Great work!
Peter came to install a new socket for my new TV above the fireplace. He was efficient, polite, and very friendly. Would recommend to others and happy to use for future electrical work.
Supply And fit replacement cooker extractor hood
Peter sourced a replacement extractor hood for our cooker and removed the defective unit, and replaced it with an alternative unit. Everything was done exactly as quoted. He is prompt, polite, and very thorough in his work. A first-class, honest, and competent tradesman whom I would use again without hesitation and recommend likewise to others who need electrical work done. Thank you, Peter, for the excellent work you have done for us.
Three jobs including running power to garage at end of garden
Swift response for initial quotes. Very good communicator who explained things clearly. All work carried out quickly & to a high standard. He also had a very good sense of humour. No hesitation in recommending Peter & would use him again for any future electrical works.
All-round excellence
Peter Whiting completely rewired my garage and fitted new power sockets and LED lighting; also installed RCD protection at the main fusebox. Additionally, at the front of my house, he installed a new porch light. All the work undertaken was discussed and agreed at a preliminary visit during which my options were made clear with his very helpful advice. I received a prompt, detailed and fair quotation, and was able to agree a mutually convenient date for the work. All of the tasks were executed according to schedule, with a welcome attention to fine detail, and with a clean and tidy finish. He removed all old wiring and lighting, for disposal or recycling. Most importantly, the quality and appearance of the finished results exceeded my expectations. Peter is communicative and friendly, and engaged me when necessary as each task progressed or to confirm the next step. He was respectful of my property and I felt him to be entirely trustworthy. I am delighted with his professional service and would not hesitate to call upon him again; I can confidently recommend him.
Very happy with work
Peter did a great job for me, providing outside reinforced cabling to link the WiFi from the house to a room at the end of our garden, all working perfectly. All was done very neatly and efficiently. Very pleased!
Nice work
Peter does nice clean, neat work that looks great. We've used him twice to install a ceiling light and then recessed lights and would use him again.
Professional
This is the first time I’ve used an Electrical Contractor.I searched the Which Trusted Trader and as a result I contacted Peter. He arrived on time and completed the work professionally.l am very pleased and would definitely recommend him.
Excellent all around
Recommended Peter by people on our street. Was on holiday and had a visitor staying to cat sit. Really helpful at explaining clear instructions over the phone to assist our visitor in getting the electrics back on and visited the house later on the same day to check through the electrics. Very patient at dealing with multiple people to fix the problem. Will be using him again for future jobs and would recommend.
Professional electrician, most considerate - outstanding attitude - a real gem!
Peter rescued us immediately when the building control could not accept the work done by an electrician in our new build kitchen extension. He checked all previous work, completed urgent work and booked a return date to do additional work to the kitchen, including new rewiring from the fuse board. We found Peter to an excellent, professional electrician, who was knowledgeable and adaptable working alongside another professional in a tight space. He was polite, cheerful and considerate. We will definitely be using Peter the next time we need an electrician, and do not hesitate to recommend him!
Fabulous work
We have used Peter several times now for domestic electrical work. He arrives on schedule, is considerate and cleans up well. Price as quoted. Peter is friendly, helpful and explains options. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Peter for electrical work.

Active incorporated business
Peter Whiting Electrical Contractors Limited is linked to a Companies House entry. This shows the business registration, not evidence of workmanship or service quality.
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 24 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.

About
I (Peter Whiting) began working as an electrical apprentice in 1983, this was a full 5 year apprenticeship. On finishing my apprenticeship I set up my own business as a sole trader in 1988. The limited business began trading in June 2002. The business is family run and some of the electrical services we offer are shown in the details below. You will see I have many reviews showing despite only being endorsed as a Which? Trusted Trader from April 2018. The reviews I have from before this time are from Which? Members who have used my services and recommended me to other Which? Members. (These reviews are from Which? Local and I am able to now use these within my endorsement) Any questions about the reviews I am happy to answer. Please contact me on my mobile number to discuss your electrical needs. I look forward to speaking with you. Regards Peter
