Fix new ceiling lights in 3 areas, install new socket extension in garage, replace blown downlighter bulbs

The guys turned up spot on time, as before when I have used them. They got on with the work and cracked on until finished. They were polite and respectful of my house, putting down sheets under all working areas and tidied up before leaving. Their rates are very reasonable. They are a good local small business which I would gladly recommend to anyone. Certainly they are my number one choice for electrical work

Electrical rewiring

Excellent job carried out efficiently with minimum disruption. After completion of the job, everything was tidied away. The electrician was even unperturbed by a parade of neighbourhood pets sauntering in and out of the house while he was working! Would definitely use again.

Total rewire of 3 bed 1930 terrace house

The work was completed in the time estimated. During the week I returned to the house a couple of times, was well informed of progress and was comfortable to ask questions as everyone was polite and friendly. On completion I was talked through how to test the consumer board and received the certificate promptly. Thank you Derek and team for an excellent job I had been worried about the disruption to the walls etc and was very pleased at the efforts made to tidy up and make good.

Rewire

DRC were one of three estimates. I chose Derek because he was the one who answered the phone every time so I new who I was dealing with. He returned calls when he said he would, he turned up when he said he would and he and the guys did a great job. I've no hesitation in recommending DRC Electrical. The best recommendation is I would have them back to the next job.
