Edvin was great, he was respectful and polite. Edvin has been fantastic as setting expectations from the offset and communicating very well. He organised with me the date and time in advance which really suited us too. The new circuit implementation was done well, promptly and carefully with minimum impact to our business in opening hours. Thank you very much Edvin.Verified reviewerJob location: BN2 10 These guys know what they are doing

I am a chartered electical power engineer but i don't have sufficient mobility to do wiring any more, so I wanted a company to install some additional solar panels and connect a workshop. I was amazed at the attention to detail these guys did. It was a perfect install of a steel wire armour cable into a new outbuilding and the removal of dangerous fittings in a swimming pool house. They fitted the correct equipment and the containment was really good. I had costed out what i wanted doing and they pretty much matched my estimate so there was no stupid massive profit. These guys are fully tVerified reviewerJob location: RH1610 Number one choice
