New sockets.
Very friendly, reliable and conscientious. I had an aerial put in and they made a real mess. Matthew came back after the work had been done at short notice and plastered it in, tidying it up for no charge. The work is really neat and we are pleased with the result. Good value, does not overcharge and keeps to the given quote. Would definitely use him again.

Rang for a quote. I was very happy with the quote so asked when the job could be done. Luckily for me they had just finished a job so they arrived within 30 mins of speaking on the phone. Job started straight away. He made it look so easy, polite and clean. All mess cleaned up. Would highly recommend and use again. Thank you.

Additional power sockets, rewiring existing for safety and chasing cable into wall.
They were careful, informed me of slight changes to placement of sockets due to wall structure, cleared up well, finished work is neat and functional. I felt confident going out and leaving them in the house. I will be using them again.

Fixed botched wiring and lighting job on stair and hallway lights by another electrician.
He arrived on time, explained what was causing the problem and fixed it swiftly. I felt confident in his abilities and although this was a small job I would use him for a big job should the need arise. I have experienced many cowboy electricians in the past but he's one of the good guys! I would definitely recommend.
