Always excellent! They are my go to electricians and I can wholeheartedly recommend them (in fact, I already did to a number of friends!). Very professional, every job is always very clean and excellently done, and prices are very reasonable! This time they installed two new lights and a socket in my loft.
Fantastic - fixed the issue quickly and with great explanation. Efficient, friendly and great value.

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.
