Connecting LED house sign to the mains David provided an excellent service, he answered my post quickly and came around the following morning. David gave me a number of options and provided me with an accurate and reasonable priced quote. David installed the light in my time frame, cleaned up afterwards and was highly professional throughout. I would highly recommended him.

Add plug sockets & remove old alarm Had David over to install a few power sockets, remove an old alarm and install spot lights. David did a great job and was very polite and informative. Even when faced with a few unexpected issues he suggested alternatives while offering his advice on each option. Very happy with the work and will certainly be calling him again for future work !

Electrical work needed in garage Incredibly pleased with the job David did! He’s knowledgeable and thorough and worked REALLY hard in the heatwave we’re experiencing! He kept me informed throughout the job and was flexible to making last minute changes to the original job spec. Very reasonably priced for the wealth of knowledge and experience that he has - so much so that my sister has now approached David for extensive work in her new home. I would highly recommend David.
