    Fault finding

    Paul was very helpful and thorough in finding a solution to an intermittent electrical fault we had and went the extra mile finding and repairing other faults he discovered along the way. I would thoroughly recommend.

    Replace existing plastic MK (house) CU with metal Hager.

    Posted 1 week ago

    Paul was a pleasure to meet. He was very professional and polite during his visit. Has done a great job replacing our old split MK consumer unit. He seemed very thorough checking existing electrical circuits. Found a few minor earthing issues which he was happy to fix. Happy with the overall outcome and would definitely use Harbourside Electrical again and recommend Paul to anyone wanting an electrician in the future. The EIC and Building Control certificate have already been received.
