Highlights
"We had an EV charger installed by SOTA Electrical Ltd (Adam Stears) and were really impressed. Adam was professional, punctual, and gave honest advice about which charger suited us best—no pressure to go for the most expensive. Installation was quick, tidy, and clearly done with pride in the work. He made sure we were confident using the system before leaving and offered follow-up support if needed. It’s rare to find such straightforward and reliable service these days. Highly recommended!"
"Adan, the Contractor was in communication before the job, talking through the issues and options. He arrived exactly on time and carried out the work. Nice man, clean working environment and wore shoe covers inside. Very happy to recommend him."
"Great job by a true professional, Highly Recommended"

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 platforms, not one polished profile.
Check any verified credentials, and that the business details independently check out.
