10thJul.20 - Shab and his son came round after I drilled into a live wire, precisely an hour after I called and when he said he would be here. They quickly got to work, chiselled into the plaster to access and join the wire; swiftly and tidily. They plastered the damage and all was promptly resolved; advising to check on the repaired joint in 5 years time. I took the opportunity to have a socket box repaired at the same time.
All work was completed within the hour, sockets and electricity supply to downstairs sockets restored, too. Thank you very much. I will save your number and get back to your for more work I need addressing around the house very soon!
