10 Replacement of recessed halogen lights.
Posted 27 January
James came to our property to provide a quote for replacing 19 halogen recessed ceiling lights with LED ones. The quote was very reasonable and James booked us in a few weeks later. We have used James on a number of occasions in the past and, as with this job, he always carries out the work to a very high standard and professionalism. James tidy up once the job was completed and made sure we were happy with the work carried out.Verified reviewerJob location: SO1910 Installation of chandelier, spot lights + more

Job location: SO50We've used James for a few years now and is our go to for anything electrical. We've just employed him to fit a chandelier in our staircase along with some ceiling spot lights and the installation of an outside PIR light. James as usual, was exceptional in his approach, communication and professionalism. His quality and speed of work cant be matched. I don't think we would want to use anyone else. Highly recommended 10/1010 Cannot recommend highly enough!

Very good, a really friendly guy and on time even the traffic was bad at that time of the dayVerified reviewerJob location: SO1810 Professional, considerate and thorough
Posted 17 October 2025
James came to my home to fix several minor domestic electrical issues. He is extremely professional, considerate and thorough. He discussed options with me, and worked with the least possible inconvenience to myself. The job proved to be less extensive than he first thought, and he reduced the bill accordingly. Everything was as agreed and explained to me. I'm delighted with the work, and have no hesitation in recommending Rig Electrics.Verified reviewerJob location: SO23
