“From the very beginning Matt was very keen to ensure every aspect of the project was completed to the highest of standards , with all regulations and site requirements checked along with choosing a system that will be easy to use for the customer but can be used to work along side other manufacturers to ensure full compliance. This installation comprised of 2 loops of addressable devices with door magnets, text message alerts for offsite monitoring and a link to mains powered carbon monoxide alarms . The works were completed within the agreed time and costs with a handover package to client.”

Highlights
“I have been incredibly lucky to have Matt takeover one of our installations. He has identified issues and detailed the solutions back to me. He has been helpful with answering questions and “dumming down” the technical jargon into a language I could understand. We now have an enhanced fire alarm system with remote monitoring which has given us all the confidence that we will be alerted should there be an issue. 10/10 all round. I couldn't recommend Matt enough”
“Matt is a very friendly yet professional electrician who had great knowledge of my very old storage heater. I would highly recommend him for any electrical works.”

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.
