Daniel was recommended by our gardener and for that, we are thankful. He was able to explain the detail of his work and understood our needs thanks to his excellent and considered communication. Open and honest in the detail of which is often missing from tradesmen, we valued his opinion. Punctual and courteous, Daniel carried out the agreed work exactly as described and to a very high standard but also demonstrated flexibility when additional work and changes were requested by ourselves. I highly recommend Daniel and would trust him to complete any scale of electrical work.

Missing evidence lowers the score because we can't check it. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Claiming a profile never changes the score. Evidence context, not a guarantee of workmanship.

Detailed reviews
Our outside lights were tripping the consumer unit. After a series of tests, Daniel located the cause of the fault and fitted a new control unit that resolved the problem. I have used Daniel's services on several small jobs in the past. He is friendly, a good communicator, and always keeps me informed of his progress on my job. Although not an expert, it seems to me that he is also an extremely competent electrician. I would not hesitate to recommend him.
Extremely tidy worker , reliable trustworthy and great explanation as what had to be done .

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.
