Highlights
"Very professional and efficient service"
"One of the two gate lights at the entrance was still working but had gone dim whilst the other remained bright. The Downlight electrician cleverly traced the source of the problem and made a simple repair, all within one hour. We were very impressed by the professionalism of the work done. We were also impressed by the very supportive and helpful office back-up at Downlight and found them a pleasure to work with."
"The process from start to finish was quick and efficient. Once I contacted Downlight Electrical for a quote, a video call was organised promptly and I received a quote shortly after the call. The price was fair and I was kept updated regularly once I had accepted the quote. The installer arrived on time, explained the work to be undertaken and completed the installation of my EV charger to a high standard. I would definitely use Downlight Electricals again."

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.
