    Taking great care

    Posted 08 January

    Luke installed spotlights and sockets into a new wall in wardrobe we built with great care. Only 1 hole in the wall to chase the cable which is extremely impressive and helpful.

    Luke is highly professional, reliable and a good communicator. He responds promptly to messages and is good at keeping you informed on the progress of jobs. Luke has just done two EICRs for me and the work went smoothly and as planned. I thoroughly recommend Luke for his expertise and professionalism. I will continue to use him for all my future electrical work.

    Luke is always reliable and dependable and communicates promptly and helpfully. This time he sourced and fitted new and matching kitchen sockets, as one had to be replaced. No job is too small for Luke so if you are not DIY inclined, as I am not(!), he's a great electrician to have in your phone book. I highly recommend him.

    Luke did a great job changing a few plug sockets for us - quick, punctual and good value, exactly what we wanted.

    Luke did a great job, was very communicative, kept the space very tidy and explained every step of the way. Was also very accommodating of our time and other works that needed carrying out at the same time.
