"Discussed the best way to get the electricity supply to garage and what make of charger we wanted. Sourced all materials and fitted the charging station within a week of getting the go ahead. Neat and tidy installation. Very helpful getting us linked up to the EV App on the mobile phone. We are very pleased with the work."
Detailed reviews
Can comment on communications only. Tradesman responded well initially with information and photos of previous jobs. However there were confusing periods of silence. When invited to have a look, and even in responding to their own proposed time to visit, there was no confirmation & they didn't turn up, by which time I had engaged another tradesman.

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.
