Highlights
"Vincent responded on the same day we contacted him and sorted our wiring problem within a couple of hours of the call. He was polite, professional and friendly. I would definitely keep his number for any future problems and recommend M Electric as a company to contact if you have any issues with your electrics."
"Vince is always super helpful and friendly. My husband contacted him to look into our dimmable switch in the lounge as we could not turn off the lights completely for some reason. Anyway, thanks to his help, we can now turn the lights off! Strongly recommend Vince."
"Contact M Electrical through Checkatrade. We required three EIRC’s for tenanted properties. Received great communication from Vincent who even contacted the tenants directly to arrange suitable times. After the reports were done I received reports and invoices the same day. Really efficient, organised and could definitely recommend."

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.
