I'll be going to Mike again for any future work I need doing 🙂Marianna BebuMarianna Bebu ★★★★★ Mike recently completed a full re-wire on our house and we are delighted with the results. From our first email, to saying goodbye he was polite, contentious and hard working. Mike originally undertook an electricity report for us which raised a few issues, including how we had numerous 'dead' plugs and how our electrics were at least 35/40 years old. We then decided to upgrade the whole system by undertaking a re-wire (inc. patch plastering) and installing outdoor lights plus two smoke detectors. He explained everything in enough detail to ensure we understood the process and no silly questions were too silly! He responded quickly to all our enquiries and kept us updated throughout the work. We will certainly look to hire Mike again to help us when we undertake any further electricity work. Thank you!George SharpGeorge Sharp ★★★★★ Absolutely fantastic.
