Highlights
"I asked Keith to do a whole-house electrical check and to replace the old ‘fuse’ box with a modern consumer unit. He did this work excellently and with minimum impact on daily living. The final solution was neat and tidy and fully functional. Keith found several items that needed attention and was quick to help remedy them. In addition Keith was full of useful advice on related matters like installing an EV charger. I thoroughly recommend Electrikcity to anyone wanting electrical work done."
"Came up with a solution which meant minimal work to house. Very helpful and reliable. work was done quickly and efficently"
"Fast response and great service. I can now have a shower again without my bathroom steaming up! Many thanks."

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.
Confirm they cover your area and can actually come out in your timeframe before anything else.
Read recent reviews for reliability and turning up on time — not only the quality of the work.
