Highlights
"Above and beyond electrician, Sam's responsiveness to any questions I had really showed his dedication to the work and I appreciated the thoroughness of his work."
"Sam is just brilliant and professional. Have had an EICR and some bathroom light replacements, along with a rewired AC unit. Needless to say, all work was done smoothly, on time and very tidy. Excellent communication throughout the work. I highly recommend SS ELECTRICAL."
"Sam was the first to respond to the job being advertised so I engaged him. We arranged a time and he arrived promptly. The issue was diagnosed quite quickly. A replacement part would be needed"

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.
