    Our first port of call when we need an electrician

    Posted 17 February

    We have used Garfield before and always found him to be reliable, punctual, tidy, friendly and very professional. He explains clearly what he is going to do and how much it will cost. We will not hesitate to use him again and recommend him to others.

    Convert single socket in garage to a double and add additional fixings for EV charger to the wall. Arrived promptly as usual. The work was done quickly and efficiently and any mess was removed. Delighted with the job. Wouldn't dream of using anyone else. Highly recommended.

    Down light installation

    Posted 06 February

    1st fix electrics installed down lights and a pendant light. The electricians arrived early, work was completed to a high standard and everything tidied up afterwards. Really pleased with my new lights.

    Excellent service again!!

    Posted 02 February

    Excellent service from start to finish. Consumer unit upgraded to a fully 18th Edition–compliant board with RCBOs and surge protection, all installed neatly and safely. All circuits were thoroughly tested, with clear explanations and advice on any potential issues. This is the fourth time we’ve used First Fix Electrics, Garfield and his assistant Dane provide a service that is consistently professional, tidy, and reliable. Would highly recommend.
