Richard was very responsive to my need for an EV charging point to supply my new Tesla. Being an accredited installer of the Zappi Smart Charger Richard came out quickly to survey the job and submitted his quotation. The installation followed soon after and was completed smoothly with great attention to detail and minimum disruption leaving the working area clean and tidy A first rate job. I will certainly use Richard for my future electrical works.

when I needed a Zippo charger installed, R West quoted appreciably less than other firms in the area; they did a neat job, on time and with a friendly smile, as well a couple of quick maintenance jobs in the house while they were here. Happy to recommend them :-)
