Pick a time. Tell us what needs doing. We’ll take care of the rest.
List what needs doing, most important first. A short description and a photo or two help your electrician arrive prepared. We work out the expected price and show it to you.
Enter your postcode and pick your address. We check we cover your area and show availability for it, plus any access details such as parking or how to reach a flat.
Pick a date and a morning, afternoon or evening arrival window. You’ll see what’s available before you commit.
Add your details and a card to confirm the booking. Nothing is charged until after the visit. You’ll receive a confirmation with a booking reference straight away.
Rather than a fixed time, you choose an arrival window. Your electrician will arrive within it, and you’ll be told which window you’ve booked at every step.
Windows are arrival windows rather than exact appointment times. Evening windows are offered where available.
Your electrician arrives with the tools and common parts for the jobs you’ve described, then works through your list in the order you set.
Your booking covers the electrician’s time rather than a guaranteed number of completed jobs. If something needs longer than expected, they’ll explain the options, whether that’s adding time on the day or arranging a separate visit. Nothing extra is carried out without your agreement.
Materials are charged separately where required. Your electrician will confirm the cost with you before fitting them.
If we wouldn’t trust them in our own home, we wouldn’t send them to yours. We work with established local electrical contractors who meet the standards we expect for our own homes. We’ve read the reviews, checked the credentials and done the homework, so you don’t have to.
