Excellent service
"I hired Richard to re-wire my house, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome. From start to finish, he was incredibly polite, professional, and thorough. He did an excellent job, and I was impressed by how well he cleaned up each day, making sure the disruption was minimal. I had been putting off this project for a while, but Richard made the process bearable and, most importantly, gave me peace of mind knowing my home is now safe. I would definitely use his services again and highly recommend him to others.

RJ Electrical was extremely thorough and pointed out (genuine) issues with previous electricians had missed on our old electrics. Provided a very competitive quote for the necessary remedial work which we are proceeding with.

Whole house rewire.
Richard has done a fantastic job on all the electrical work needed on a house refurbishment for me. He moved the main consumer unit to an outside wall and this involved running armoured cable to the new meter box outside. He rewired all the lights to provide an earth to the light switches. Installed new sockets and moved light switches. He installed a new cooker hood and supply to new air conditioning unit. All the work was carried out to a very high standard with Electrical Installation Certificates supplied. Richard was always on time, worked professionally and price was competitive.

EICR to help sell our Victorian home
We recently asked Richard at RJ Electrical to complete an EICR for our property as part of the process of selling our house. As always, he was incredibly thorough and professional, spending several hours identifying and resolving a fault to ensure everything was safe and up to standard. We’ve worked with Richard on numerous occasions over the years, and he’s always been reliable, friendly, and highly skilled. From setting up our home office and fixing faulty sockets to fitting a new oven and hob, he’s tackled every job with care and precision. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend RJ Electrical
