Highlights

Quickly sorted out the problem with the fuse box, Richard explained the issue and how to solve this problem. He rang through to the national grid and placed an emergency appointment for me, who subsequently resolved the issue. Richard was very pleasant, courteous and professional in his interaction with me. I would certainly use him again for electrical issues.

AnonymousCheckatrade5.0 rating

How many tradespeople would answer their phone at 10pm on a Friday night & be perfectly friendly & polite? Well I just found one, Richard. I broke the ceiling light swapping bulbs; house was sold, new owners moving in Tuesday. He said he'd come Monday, 10am. I didn't really believe it, he texted Monday he'd be 30 mins early if that was OK. He is very pleasant, worked quickly, perfect job & a great price. I recommend him 100%.

Official checkOn the public register

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 5 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.

Worth checking yourself
No credentials are shown here and the business has not claimed this profile. Ask to see certificates and insurance directly.
Verify at the sourceCheck them yourself

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 register
In 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.
