Nick is in my experience the best electrician around. Able to complete works where others couldn't. Excellent job - nothing too much trouble and very helpful. Would highly recommend Nick to anyone.
Nick Thorne is an exemplary electrician. He went more than the extra mile for us in order to track down an electrical fault that was tripping the overhead lights upstairs in our house. He fitted us in during the busy pre-Christmas period at very short notice, arrived on time, and charged reasonably for what was a difficult fault to diagnose. Through no fault of his, he had to make two visits in order to make sure that the fault had been solved; the second was on the New Year bank holiday, as he was (and I'm not surprised) going to be very busy over the rest of the month. He's great!

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.
