    Kitchen fitting and inspection

    Posted 10 July 2024

    Boyd was simply great. He worked around my terrible schedule to get the property fit for rental. Too many jobs to list but some include first and second fix of kitchen electricals, swapped lights, PVC trunking fit & cables and issue of Electrical Certificates & a new Electrical Installation Condition report. Finally registration of any notifiable works & issue of building regulations compliance notice. Couldn't have rented out the property without his knowledge. He is courteous and tells you exactly what you need, there is no upselling or scare mongering. Highly recommended!

The most recent and biggest works, of raising and reconfiguring my plug sockets throughout the ground floor to accommodate new skirting boards, new lights both indoors and outdoors, fitting new smart thermostats, to name a few. Boyd is always punctual, tidy and does a great job. Highly recommend.
