Report
I write with reference to Steve Kays advice and the team of electricians who fitted our downlights in our home.
Steve very promptly arrived to assess the outdated lights in our ceilings. I was supplied with a quote immediately for their replacement and understood labour costs would be on top of this. Steve offered to replace the lights one level at a time if I wished (it being a three storey house) so I took him up on this offer deciding to do the two top floors of the house first. The gentlemen who fitted the lights (and an extra outside light) worked tidily, efficiently and left no evidence

Two years ago I set up Brewtown Tours. As a small business owner, I realise how important customer service is and I try to do that little extra for the guest on my tours. In February, I was recommended to contact Steve to do some electrical work on my home. Steve came out that afternoon and explained that work that needed doing and what wasnt necessary. Then we arranged a date for his team to visit. Steves team arrived promptly, were friendly, professional and carried out the work to the highest standard. They also left the place cleaner than when they arrived. I am very impressed with

I can highly recommend Steve and the team at JMK Electrical Ltd. They go over and above what you would normally expect from a electrical contractor, doing everything in house, for domestic, commercial and industrial clients. They take time to fully understand a clients requirements offering great personal service and I cannot recommend them highly enough.
