"Broken socket was causing the rest of the sockets to trip which was also stopping the boiler from working. Contacted Cotswold and explained the problem. Arrived at the time agreed, letting me know he was on his way and completed the work including fully testing it efficiently. Price was as agreed on initial contact. Would use again and recommend"

"We reached out to Mark to do an electrical survey of a house we were purchasing. He was swift, efficient and polite. After the survey he highlighted what was essentially needed for safety, as well as recommendations for longevity. We used this to negotiate the purchase price. Once the sale was completed Mark did a full rewire of our new home, making it safe and brining it up to date with a new fuse box and new sockets. He also moved light switches, installed new lights and a doorbell/camera. He was always willing to discuss extra jobs and offer advice. He cleaned afterwards. We will use again"

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.
Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile.
Check any verified credentials, and that the business details independently check out.
