10 Excellent work, a job well done.
Posted 15 October
Arrived on time. Very efficient and knowledgeable. Friendly and likeable. Did an amazing job on replacing LED lights in the kitchen. I have booked him to do more electrical jobs in the near future. I would have no hesitation in recommending Dave for any electrical work.Verified reviewerJob location: PO210 Brilliant. Goes above and beyond

Dave was so helpful, coming to see us at short notice to install some plugs, and he went above and beyond helping to change a pipe and install my washer too. He was friendly, helpful and professional. Very happy, will definitely use again!Verified reviewerJob location: PO18- DDom H
10 Electric fuse board update
Posted 10 September
Job location: PO8Totally professional and helpful person. In order to fit fuse board to standard a couple of faults turned up on the tests carried out on the current wiring. These were sorted out quickly and explained why they needed to be done. All in simple people speak. Nothing was to much trouble. Will highly recommend and recommend to friends and family in future. So rare to find an old school professional who worked so hard for us to be up to new regulations. Thank you so much. 10 Superb Service, Great Communication, Highly Professional and Reliable

I cannot recommend David highly enough. He is very reliable and a true professional who will now be our 'go to' electrician. From the initial emergency call out to the completion of the electrical work our house required, the quality of service and his communication, as he discovered and worked through the various legacy wiring problems in our 1930s Portsmouth house were exemplary. A 5-star service, and highly recommended.Verified reviewerJob location: PO30 plug fitting

Thank you for the review.I’ve been in business over 25 yrs & never had a complaint as you can see from the other reviews.I was only trying to help as you said you couldn’t afford the fee & you had contacted other electricians that gave you a similar reply
