EXCELLENT Based on 503 reviews Posted on Matthew EskellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Matt was absolutely fantastic, gave us great advice on our electric shower and was very personable.Posted on MelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I booked an EICR with MJP electrical. Communication was very clear and very quick. They provided me with a quote which was very reasonable, and followed up with me a few days later. The fact that I had a tenant in the property was no issue for them and they made an appointment with them and gave them a tracking link to see approximately when they would come for the appointment. All passed and no extra charges which was great news. Received the certificate the same day. All in all, good pricing, great communication, and quick to reply. Would recommend!Posted on Stephen LongTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. First class service, quick and painless.Posted on Lauren ParryTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mark and his apprentice Stan recently carried out some electrical work for me and I was really impressed from start to finish. The work was completed to a very high standard, everything was left clean and tidy, and they arrived very punctually. They were polite, explained things clearly and easy to talk to. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Mark and Stan and will definitely use them again in the future!Posted on M LTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great service, very friendly and reliable. Got the job done professionally with no hassle whatsoever. (And on a Saturday)Posted on DanielTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently had a full house rewire completed by MJP Electrical and I honestly couldn’t be more impressed with the whole experience. From start to finish, the service was professional, organised and reassuring. A full rewire can feel disruptive, but the team made the process smooth and manageable. They were punctual, clear in their communication and always happy to answer any questions along the way. The workmanship was immaculate. Everything has been finished to a very high standard, with real attention to detail. What stood out just as much was how tidy they kept the property throughout the job. At the end of each day, things were left clean and safe, which makes a huge difference when you’re living in the house during major works. They were also consistently polite and respectful – not only to us, but to our neighbours as well. That level of courtesy doesn’t go unnoticed and speaks volumes about their professionalism. On top of that, the pricing was very reasonable for the scale and quality of work delivered. If you’re looking for a reliable, skilled and considerate electrical team for a full rewire or any major project, I would highly recommend MJP Electrical. A genuinely great service from start to finish.Posted on CL MontTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Brilliant and fast service. Matthew completed the job with clear expertise and we got everything sorted the same week as we made the booking. Highly recommend!Posted on Damian WardingleyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. They came out for an emergency call out on Xmas Eve so we engaged them for some more major work. Everything done in the promised timescale, reasonably priced, engineer friendly, efficient, and reassuring. Would recommend!Posted on EMMA DAVIESTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. MJP are a great company. They are extremely professional and transparent. I have used them twice now and they have been very easy to communicate with, very clear in terms of the process and what is included in the price. They have never quoted for work that doesn't need to be done. We had an electrical safety check and passed without further work which is refreshing because from experience other companies may add something on unnecessary. They were patient with me while we compared other quotes and with me being an overseas landlord it was a very easy and smooth process. They worked with my tenants and dealt with me electronically and we're very understanding of time zone challenges. They also updated me immediately after the visit. Will definitely use again next time. Thank you team!

A: You can check directly on the NICEIC site https://www.niceic.com/householder/find-a-contractor
or read our full and detailed article here: How can I check if an Electrician is qualified and registered?
A: Every electrician hold an ECA card which proves competence and be fully qualified to 18th edition standard.
A: The simple answer is, You CAN’T. It is illegal for any person to sign off work and say he had done the work when he clearly did not. If that person is a fully fledged registered and accredited Electrician or Gas Engineer and he lies about the installation he can pretty much kiss his career goodbye.
A: Whenever an approved electrician completes any form of electrical installation work on your home, a form of certification must be provided.
Whether you’re installing a new oven, an air conditioner or replacing your switchboard or light switches, you will need a safety certificate from your approved electrician.
A: You CAN do electrical work yourself under Part P You do NOT need to get a registered electrician to verify it. For some types of work (notifiable jobs), you need to notify Buildings Control (and pay a fee) . They will then inspect the work at first and second fix.
A: From April 2013 electrical work in a dwelling, or associated with its surroundings, is notifiable to a local building control body where the work includes:
- the installation of a new circuit, whether at low voltage (typically 230 V) or extra-low voltage); or
- the replacement of a consumer unit (fusebox); or
- any alteration or addition to an existing circuit in a special location*, whether at low voltage (typically 230 V) or extra-low voltage
*A special location is a room containing a bath or shower, swimming pool or a sauna heater.
An alteration or addition to an existing circuit in a room containing a bath or shower is notifiable only where carried out in the space surrounding a bath or shower.
An alteration or addition anywhere within a room containing a swimming pool or sauna heater is notifiable.
A: Since 2005, all electrical work in dwellings in England and Wales whether carried out professionally or as DIY, and whether or not the work is notifiable to a building control body (see below), must meet the requirements of Part P of the Building Regulations. In April 2013 the requirements for England were amended.
Compliance with Part P is intended to keep you and your family as safe as possible from electrical hazards.
The requirements of Part P apply to new dwellings and to any alterations or additions to the electrical installations of existing dwellings, including full or partial rewires.
Part P states that anyone carrying out electrical work in a dwelling must ensure that reasonable provision has been made in the design and installation of the electrical installations in order to protect any persons who might use, maintain or alter the electrical installation of that dwelling from fire and injury, including electric shock.
A: By law, the homeowner or landlord must be able to prove that all electrical installation work meets Part P, or they will be committing a criminal offence.
Local authorities have the power to make homeowners or landlords remove or alter any work that does not meet the requirements of the Building Regulations.
A: Things to look for are:
- Approved by a recognised governing body like the NICEIC
- Insured – NCIEC will ensure this
- Qualified – NCIEC will ensure this
- Recommendations
- Communication
- Good Attitude
A: What you do need is to get a registered electrician to verify that what you’ve done is safe apart from some “minor” jobs like changing sockets or moving them a short distance.
What you might find is that a lot of electricians won’t verify your work, so you end up having to get them to do the job.
