All round great experience and already using them again for further work. Fair price. Friendly, polite and professional. Very pleased with the result.Verified reviewerJob location: BN310 Job done as required and in good time. Probable choice for future work

The main task was to install squirrel-proof netting to my solar panel installation. This was completed in two parts to avoid disturbing a squirrel nest that contained very young squirrels. The job was completed a couple of months later. A security light by the front door was replaced as well. The work was completed in very good time, a couple of minor complications being overcome without problem. This was the first job that Resistance Electrical had done for us, it is very probable that they will be our first choice for any future work.Verified reviewerJob location: BN710 Solar panels and battery installed on roof. .
