Highlights

"Thrift arranged the solar panel work on my home and this was done with no hassle. All appointments were done to schedule and the workmen did a wonderful job. A prior call to check I was still happy and a call after to check all work was carried out to my satisfaction. Excellent service and great staff"

"Excellent service from start to finish. All staff were helpful, professional and very efficient. The whole process was arranged effectively with tradespeople arriving at the alloted times as agreed. They completed the jobs and made sure everything was tidy before they left. The office staff dealt with any queries quickly and with care. I would highly recommend this company."

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