Extremely prompt and very ‘can do’
After having had difficulty getting anyone interested in replacing power sockets, Sonny came the following day and did the job. Very ‘can do’ and friendly. I hope you use the company again soon, very impressed - what’s not to like.

Prompt efficient, friendly service
Sonny installed 2 security lights and replaced a broken induction hob unit. He offers a professional service from beginning to end; clear pricing, prompt timing, job well done and timely invoicing. This is the third time I have used this service and I've been happy both times, (each time a different job!). Highly recommended.

Helpful, reliable, professional Tradesman
Personable and professional tradesman who fitted a consumer box and an electric shower which involved new wiring lifting floorboards etc. Clear initial quote and the work was done professionally to the agreed schedule and budget. I was particularly impressed that he fitted discreet trunking to all new wiring and nothing looked "unfinished" at the end. At my request, Sonny even, at no extra cost, fitted trunking to a previous company's wiring from our new boiler which had been left as an eyesore! Sonny responded promptly to all communications and explained everything clearly. I would definitely use him again.

Most reliable, honest and informative trade I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with
I met Sonny about 5 years ago when he worked on the electrics during my house refurb and have called on him many times since then. His work is always of an exceptionally high standard, he is punctual, friendly and goes to great lengths to explain what he is doing, when and why - even to a layman such as myself! He got me out of a tricky situation when a subby of my builder disappeared, having completed about 50% of the work without leaving any electric plans. Sonny expertly worked backwards from what was available and managed to complete all the work, making some suggested changes to some of the existing work that was not up to the standards he would expect. He has spent time on the phone to me on a weekend talking me through possible fixes when the fuse on my boiler broke - he goes above and beyond. His pricing is fair and transparent; he is an honest, decent and very knowledgeable guy. I would recommend (and have recommended) Sonny to anybody who is looking for a reliable and trustworthy electrician.

Fantastic Service, Highly Recommended
I selected Sterling Electric after reading the reviews about his work and professionalism. I selected him above three other electricians because of the way he communicated with me. He kept all appointments, worked hard and he put the hours in to get the work done within the timescales agreed. He cleaned up before leaving and take away the rubbish with him. The workmanship in the garage is amazing due to the new lighting he installed. Once the inside of the garage was finished, he proceeded to installed four security lights around the garage. The lights are extremely sensitive and comes on immediately as soon as I drive through the gates or if a fox or someone walks near the garage, exactly want I wanted. I’m extremely happy with the work he has done and will not hesitate to call him again in the future. Many thanks Sterling Electric for your brilliant workmanship.

About
We are a professional company based in Kent dealing with anything electrical including CCTV, intruder alarms, access control and more. We can fully rewire a domestic or commercial property, issuing an NICEIC certificate on completion which will be Part P notified (where applicable), or just have a few extra sockets, electric shower or tv aerial points installed where they're scarce. We pride ourselves on efficient energy consumption so led lamps will always be used on an install that involves lighting, free advice will always be given upon request. We accept any job size and hold a £2M liability insurance certificate which can be obtained upon request. Premium installs with a thorough finish. Give us a call we're friendly.
These are statements the business makes on its own website, worth confirming in writing (and on the official registers) before you hire, not independently verified by us.
Always confirm credentials and quotes with the business directly before hiring.
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.
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.
