Real reviews from our Google Business Profile.
Excellent service from Rob this morning, he came out for an emergency loss of power and got us back online within 45 minutes of calling him at 2am on a weekend! Amazing service. Highly recommended!
I cannot recommend this firm highly enough. Not only will I use them again but I will pass their details on to others needing an electrician. Rob came on time and needed to go for cable which is forgotten. He broke down on the way but rang me to say he was waiting for the AA but would come back and finish the job that same day. He rang me to keep me informed and came back in a different vehicle, and finished the job. The standard of his work was excellent and he is extremely confident and a nice person to deal with. Highly recommend and thank you Rob.
Rob arrived quickly and fixed the socket issue with no problem. He was professional and made sure everything was working perfectly before leaving. Highly recommend his services.
Great service for an EICR, reasonably priced and completed remedial work in a timely fashion. Would recommend.
