Highlights
"Stuart was absolutely fabulous. He contacted me via WhatsApp less than 12 hours after I put in the request and was at our house, completing the job that same morning. He was polite, friendly and explained everything he was doing and why he was doing it. His workmanship was exemplary and we wouldn't hesitate to use Stuart or DEC Electrical Ltd again"
"Very prompt response. Stuart very pleasant and respectful in my home, removing his shoes when he came in. Stuart worked methodically looking for the ‘fault’. Eventually found and repaired quickly. Stuart had to go up into the loft but left no mess, and tidied up once finished. I won’t have any other electrician in my home. Highly recommend this company."
"Professional, timely and courteous. Great explanation of extra parts required for the Tesla charger in particular and why. Insightful opinions on EV charger options in general ??"

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