Highlights
"I haven't needed any electrical work done for ages but was happy to see that Jay was still operating. He did a great job as ever. Not only is he experienced, tidy and reliable but he is also a top bloke!"
"We have used Jay from Select Electric for a few jobs around our house now having had new smoke alarms fitted, some new spot lighting and some new sockets over the course of the past year. Jay works effectively, efficiently and cleanly and gives excellent results. I will be using him again when needed."
"Jay is not only lovely and polite, clean and tidy, ontime and professional, but he knows his stuff! He replaced extractor fans in all my bathrooms with quiet and more powerful ones; Installed an outside movement sensor, PIR ; Replaced a smoke alarm; Installed new lounge lights; Installed fans/lights in bedrooms; Changed two faulty dimmer modules; And updated my consumer units to comply with new regulations. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Jay."

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.
