10 The light cord had stopped working in the bathroom, so I was left without a bathroom light.
Posted 2 days ago
Garry was the first tradesman to contact me about the job. I was worried nobody would be interested in such a small job. I arranged with Garry to do the job on my working from home day. He was in contact regularly once we'd arranged to do the job. He arrived promptly and did the job promptly but efficiently. Garry explained he'd fixed a more substantial light cord, which had been the cause of the problem. I would recommend this tradesman and wouldn't hesitate to use him again if necessary.Verified reviewerJob location: DH5 10 Quick and easy installation of a new living room light.

10 New Mainsboard and full Earthing upgrade
Posted 01 October 2024
We required a new mains board due to the age of the house and were experiencing earthing problems which led to problems with the cooker, the shower and various other sockets throughout the house. Garry explained clearly, and in great detail, the problem and the work that was required. His quote was very reasonable and his knowledge of his trade is excellent. The work that he and Pip did was done to a high standard with the minimum of disruption. It's great to have peace of mind now and 100% confidence when using the power in the house. Thanks Garry, forever in your debt.Verified reviewerJob location: SR8 - AAnonymous
