'I like it when someone gives me intelligent solutions to a task, and then carries out the work effectively, including coordination with a local builder for other aspects of the job. Simon understood what I needed (moving an EV charger) and what the job required to be done well. Good communication and good understanding of all the technical requirements. Happy to recommend Simon to anyone in the area needing electrical work done’

'Simon installed my Tesla charging point. A great job done efficiently, tidied after himself. The most important was the fact that the cabling was exemplary. I recommended that Simon should contact Tesla and become an approved installer so get in quick before he has to put his prices up!!!'
