Summary:
We had an electrical socket failure which was extremely inconvenient. Barry responded to a text straight away and was on site within hours and replaced it.
Comments:
Summary:
In a professional kitchen - added sockets to existing ring main; repaired faulty socket.
Comments:
Not a complicated job but undertaken efficiently and tidily. All circuits properly tested and certificate issued. We were pleased with the price and will certainly use Barry again. In fact we've booked him for another job already.
Summary:
ECIR inspection and report of a large old building with a three-phase supply and multiple circuits installed over a number of years.
Comments:
This was one of the best ECIR reports I have ever seen. Nothing was left out and virtually every circuit was traced and tested. The report was comprehensive and advice was provided for the C3s (fortunately no C1s or 2s). Circuit charts were provided for the main board and all sub-boards. I was expecting an enormous bill for the time and effort involved but thought that his charges were fair and certainly not exorbitant. A real pleasure to work with.
Summary:
I called Barry and he arrived within 30mins. Fixed the issue and made recommendations for longer term.
Comments:
Extremely knowledgeable and very likeable and honest.
Highly recommend.

Barry carried out the following list of jobs for me:
Comments:
Barry was like a whirlwind getting all these jobs done and ticking them off the list I gave him. You cannot get a more competent electrician and you can always be guaranteed that his work is nothing short of perfect.
Thank you Barry for getting all these jobs done, it is such a relief to get them ticked off 'my' list!
Cannot recommend highly enough.
Summary:
New doorbell cam fitted.
Comments:
Barry is a lovely bloke and nothing is too much trouble for him. He's very thorough and takes great pride in his work.
He provided us with very helpful advice on what kit to buy, and went to great lengths to ensure that the installation was as neat and tidy as possible. The finished install looks good and works well. Barry also cleaned up when he had finished.
I would definitely employ Barry again.
Summary:
Install power and lighting to a log cabin.
Comments:
Barry was prompt in surveying the job and, as the consumer unit was already full, he gave me the the choice of options to enable the project to be completed. He's a punctual, polite and tidy worker. The job went smoothly and was completed within the timescale given. I would recommend Barry for any electrical work and would certainly use him again.
Summary:
Replacement PIR light at side of property.
Comments:
For several nights I had noticed that the PIR light was on 'permanently' with nothing triggering its sensor. I realised that this unit had finally failed and therefore needed to be replaced.
I contacted Barry and he managed to slot in an appointment for me within his busy schedule. He arrived punctually and immediately got to work and, very quickly, the job was completed!
Barry is a true professional of his trade - extremely efficient and always does a top quality job.
Thanks Barry, the new PIR is working perfectly. See you again when I need another job doing!
As always, tidy and cheerful and above all reliable. The price was fair. No hesitation in recommending him.
