Very friendly but professional, and displayed a huge wealth of knowledge, which always makes you feel at ease. After inspection of the issue we need some modification works done to the solar implementation to stop tripping earths, so this will now be quoted. Very happy with visit, and looking forward to the next call where the issue will be finally sorted, what a relief!

Ian came out of hours and he was very informative, explaining everything he was doing as he went along.

They were prompt, gave prompt quotes, liaised with my agent, and turned up at the property at the time they said. Unfortunately it did not pass inspection, but they quoted for remedial works, and did a subsequent test which did pass. It's difficult to know (remotely) whether the suggested changes were required. They were not cheap, and by then it makes more sense to use the same company again as you are reasonably certain that the property will pass if they do the changes. For five stars, they could have phoned at the time of the first inspection to fix and re-test at the time (once I consented to the cost), which would have saved time. They could also have taken a few photos which would have made it easier for me to judge whether the quotes for upgrade works were fair. read lessAmit Shah12/25/2022Booked an EICR, booking process was straightforward and I well kept well inforned of when the engineers would arrive. ... read moreBooked an EICR, booking process was straightforward and I well kept well inforned of when the engineers would arrive.
