Detailed reviews
My electrics kept tripping in the middle of the night. Couldn’t make out what it was and it was getting frustrating. So I was kind of stuck as my normal electrician was away on holiday. So he gave me Martin’s number. After running a few tests he came to the conclusion that it was a loose wiring and there was a water leak which had burnt out a socket and every time there was movement it would trip the electrics. Long story short. LET THERE BE LIGHT!!! Thank you kindly
Martin came to complete an EICR for my rental property ...he was prompt,polite and informative. Reasonable price and all went smoothly.

Electrical work in homes in England & Wales should be done by a registered competent person who can self-certify it meets the Part P safety rules. Check they're on the official register.
Check the electrical registerIn 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.
