Always excellent! They are my go to electricians and I can wholeheartedly recommend them (in fact, I already did to a number of friends!). Very professional, every job is always very clean and excellently done, and prices are very reasonable! This time they installed two new lights and a socket in my loft.Verified reviewerJob location: BN1- MMichael O
