My tenants called me on a Sunday evening to report a problem with the smoke alarms at the property. They kept going off intermittently for no apparent reason, causing a lot of noise! I called Mike to explain the issue, and within 30mins, he was at the property. He investigated the issue and managed to stop the problem. I would definitely recommend his services.

Mr Gilbert came to install a new oven for me. He identified that the property was not properly earthed, gave me a clear explanation of the issue, and explained how best to resolve it. He subsequently returned to earth the fuse box and install the new cooker. He ensured safety standards were met, whilst also being sensitive to the layout of the kitchen and limiting damage to decoration. The final invoice matched his initial estimate. In summary, I found Mr Gilbert to be prompt, efficient, and kind. I would certainly be happy to use his services again.

Mike of Better Heating and Lighting has taken care of our electrics for probably more than 15 years, so that probably speaks for itself in terms of our faith in the thoroughness and safety of their work. Most recently they have provided electric sockets etc for a new fitted bedroom. As usual, the work was completed when we needed it and to a high standard.

We recently used Michael to sort a few small electrical jobs at our flat which were all completed to a very high standard. He took the time to listen and talk us through different options and then provided us with a very thorough breakdown of costs which he kept to. Communication was great, schedules were all stuck to and mostly importantly all the work was completed very professionally. We'd have no hesitation in recommending his services to others in the area and we will definitely be using him again in the future - thank you for the fantastic work.

Have used BH&L many times; both on my own home and professionally in properties we manage. The team offers a rare combination of responsiveness to emergencies and ability to then book-in wider scale works at a mutually convenient time. I cannot recommend them more

I have employed Better Heating and Lighting for numerous electrical projects on my home over the past 10 years or so - from installing new lighting indoors and outdoors, to conducting Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICR), to fitting bathroom extractor fans, and much more. They are 100% reliable in my experience - and on the rare occasion something hasn't been quite right, they have been quick to resolve the issue . Their work is consistently of the highest quality. What's more they are always friendly and nothing is ever too much trouble. I would not hesitate to recommend them.

It’s very hard to find an electrician to come and do small jobs however Michael Gilbert did! He texted me to say what time he would arrive and was here on time. A very courteous and professional man who solved the problem of installing a double switch to 6 spotlights instead of a single. He also mended another spotlight and a broken dimmer switch. Michael had the spare parts in his van so didn’t have to go and buy them which was an added bonus. He was very respectful of my newly painted walls when moving his ladder and kit. I would highly recommend him for any electrical work.

Mike and Benjamin have undertaken a range of work in our house. They are a pleasure to work with, being courteous and professional in their communication and in carrying out the work. I always have a sense of relief when engaging them, because I know that the work will be done well and without cutting any corners. I would happily recommend them to anyone looking for quality and reliability.
