Trusted electricians to use again and again
This is the second time we’ve used Resistance for electrical works at home - the first time was fitting an induction hob and now some lights and extra plug sockets. They’re great to work with - on time, professional and very friendly and remain my go to for electrical works in the future.Verified reviewerJob location: BN1
