Highlights
“Very pleased with all the work Donald (also known as Nic) did in my house. Originally contacted Nic to replace rusty porch light, fix broken switch, replace old spotlights in cooker. From the start Nic was prompt, professional, courteous and friendly. He made some helpful suggestions about which pendant light to buy; he also bought parts and included them in his invoice. Nic left the place spotless and even vaccuumed up. Also, I remembered I had a broken reading light, which Nic kindly fixed on the spot. Wonderful service, will use Nic's help again - recommend very highly. Thanks Nic!”
“Excellent service provided with good communication. Job completed in quick time.”

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.
