Highlights
"In Dec.2025, I had a battery installation by Matt from South Coast Energy to augment my Solar panels set-up. This was at least the 3rd, if not 4th time Matt has helped me , and the whole job from consideration through planning to fitting into a much modified old cottage, was carried out in his customary careful and considerate manner. I would not hesitate to recommend this very delightful, professional, and practical electrician."
"Good response time and clear survey report (EICR) on the condition of the electrical circuits of the property we are in the process of buying"
"Our solar panel inverter had seemingly decided to give up the ghost and so we turned to Checkatrade to find a local engineer to c check out the problem. South Coast Energy was highly rated and so we turned to them for a diagnostics check. Matt confirmed that our inverter was indeed dead and recommended an equal but more efficient alternative to what was originally installed. The work was subsequently performed quickly, efficiently and cleanly. Matt is very personable and because of his efforts we are again generating - thoroughly recommend."

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.
