    Professional, helpful and reliable

    Posted 28 March

    Ryan helped us out after we were let down by a previous electrician. He took time to look into the job, thought about solutions and was really helpful and professional. Good communication and completion of work as discussed. We will be using Ryan again. Thank you

    Genuine, trustworthy, and professional - would hire again!

    Posted 12 March

    We just bought our first house, and it needed a lot of work, including a complete rewire. We reached out to Ryan, and he was quick to respond, the quote was reasonable, and upon viewing the house he offered some really solid advice on what would be useful and where we could save a little money. Which was very much appreciated as we were in over our heads. He finished the job in the projected timeline, even despite some issues being found along the way, and within budget! Very genuine guy, felt safe having him in the house. 10/10, would use again for any future work needed!

    House Rewiring - Exceptional, would highly recommend

    Posted 05 March

    Would highly recommend Ryan. He carried out a complete rewiring and fixtures, new sockets and lighting, throughout my house. Ryan delivered a high quality of work, was communicative and clear throughout the whole process (in helping me prepare, right through to making sure I was happy with the work as he completed). He worked around other renovations going on at my house and coordinated with the other trades to make sure the electrics were all complete and ready - including wiring a new kitchen. Really brilliant and I'm chuffed. Really friendly throughout as well, which didn't hurt!

    Replaced our consumer unit and installed EV charger amongst other things. He’s always been fantastic, very knowledgeable and high standard of work. Would recommend to anyone.

    Multiple new sockets for kitchen and installing new towel rail

    Posted 26 July 2025

    Really pleased with Ryan’s work - I had a few jobs that needed doing in a flat I’m renovating - first time buyer so was all a bit new to me and was anxious about trusting advice but Ryan was great at pointing out things I hadn’t thought of, helped me work out what order to do things and then did a great job. Jobs included adding new sockets in the kitchen, installing a new heated towel rail and removing an old fuse spur, and removing an old oven fuse. All looks really neat!
