Jason upgraded a consumer unit for me for a reasonable price and dealt with some issues that had surfaced in a very professional way without any drama. He did a great job of replacing sockets and switches and left a surperb plastered finish. I would thoroughly recommend his work and would use him again for future projects.

Jason came to provide an electrical supply to our summer house in the garden. I didn't think it would be straightforward but Jason came up with a simple solution. He was able to complete the work quite quickly and we're extremely pleased with his workmanship and no doubt will have a few more little jobs for him.

Jason came and sorted out our dodgy electrics. We had employed someone to rewire our house but they disappeared leaving us with working but dangerous electrics
Nothing phased Jason. He just got on with it and sorted it out. We are hoping to move house shortly and will be calling him to sort out the next place
Thanks for doing a great job

Jason moved and replaced our old fuse board. We are very happy with his work and will ask him do our new kitchen electrical work in the future. Highly recommend.
