Can I do my own electrics?

The short answer is yes.

The correct answer is maybe

My answer is no.

I would suggest you seek professional advice first. If you are asking this because there is a light switch that has stopped working and you want to swap it over for a new one, then you will likely have no problems doing that once you have become a YouTube master.

However, this is a far cry from the customer who asks this with the view to building their own house which they then want to rent out.

I personally like cooking, but I am not about to open my own restaurant with the view to serve 100 covers every night.

Ben arrived promptly and was quick to set about with the testing, explaining everything as he went along so that I could understand what he was doing and why. He was very thorough in his work and did not mind at all that I was talking to him throughout.

Ben was amazing, rang on Tuesday went to answer phone as he was on a job but got back to me within 1hour, then came round the same day to assess the problem and had it fixed the following day. He explained everything that needed doing and was happy to explain as he was doing it.

Just Brilliant

We had a wiring fault causing the RCD on our consumer unit to trip, knocking out the circuit in our kitchen. Ben came out same day, identified the cause of the fault and whilst doing so explained what he was doing and what caused the issue.

Absolutely great service
