Highlights
"I got a call today with a response to my email and a plumber was sent out within the next couple hours. Not only was he patient when we'd realised there was a miscommunication between me and my housemates and we hadn't bought the tap we needed - he also helped us remove some shelves in our living room as he noticed we were struggling (completely for free). Very professional and helpful!"
"The appointment was arranged efficiently. Sam arrived on time and was courteous and professional"
"Excellent service. Hard working, polite and careful installers, who went the extra mile without complaint."

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.
