We had used Julian in our flat in Southampton for some small work items, but such was his work and personal standards, that he was a natural choice when we needed an electrician to help put right faults in a new home we moved to. Giving Julian a list of what we thought were major items, he quickly and confidently diagnosed the problems, fixed what he could immediately and returned promptly with parts for the rest. We also asked him to supply and fit new garage lights and sort out numerous "small" but annoying issues. He did this with good humour, cleaning up after each job and explaining all he was doing, asking if that was what we wanted. We can thoroughly recommend his services, the quality of his work and highly professional manner. His fees were very reasonable too. So if you want a safe electrician, especially if you are on your own or need to leave the house keys with someone, we cannot recomend higher.

The best electrician ever had. Bearing in mind the size of the job, the house was left safe and tidy every day. Always keeping us informed of any extra work that we were creating. A house re-wire I've learnt never sticks to the original plan. Joe the apprentice was always keen to try out his new Christmas tools, even though they weighed him down. Really, really nice guys. We won't be using anyone else in the future.
