Highlights
"Rob came to our house to fix our range cooker. After identifying the problem he had a very honest conversation with me and advised me that fixing the oven was not the best option financially. He spent over an hour taking the cooker apart, showing me the damage and explaining what was wrong. When he came to leave I asked how much I owed him. His response was 'nothing as I haven't fixed the problem'. I felt dreadful not paying for his time but he was adamant that he wouldn't take payment. Rob was incredibly professional, friendly and knowledgeable. I would have no hesitation recommending Rob."
"I called Rob late yesterday evening as our 9 year old AEG oven failed to heat up as we were making dinner. Not only did Rob call me straight away but arranged to come out this morning. He replaced the element and in the space of half an hour we were up and running! I would 100% recommend Rob, he is so professional, friendly and obviously knows his stuff. He is also very reasonable on cost. Thank you!"
"Rob talked me through a problem with my old Rangemaster cooker over the phone. His advice sorted the problem and all working fine . He could easily have come out and charged instead. I can’t recommend him enough. A real old school Gentleman."

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.
