Highlights
"Would highly recommend and use CDK Electrical again, the work was completed quickly and professionally to a great standard, they even swept and wiped up the dust from the drilling after which was much appreciated - thanks again!"
"We recently had CDK install new LED lights and an inline extractor fan in our bathroom. The guys carried out the work to a very high standard. They were very polite, respectful of our home and made sure they left the bathroom nice and clean. Overall we are very happy with their work and would happily use them again for further work we have planned."
"Daily found and fixed quickly"

Smart checks
Before you hire an electrician
In England and Wales, notifiable electrical work (new circuits, a consumer unit, anything in a bathroom or kitchen) must by law be signed off under Part P of the Building Regulations — confirm they will handle that.
Prefer an electrician registered with a government-approved competent-person scheme (NICEIC, NAPIT or ELECSA) so they can self-certify the work meets the wiring regulations.
Insist on the Electrical Installation Certificate (or Minor Works Certificate) when the job is done — it is your proof the work is safe and compliant, and you will need it if you ever sell.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
