My 91 year cousin who lives alone and has poor eyesight rang me much concerned about the loss of lighting in her kitchen together with lighting issues elsewhere in the house. Having used Trusted Traders myself on an earlier occasion, I suggested she ring them Better Heating and Lighting, a local Ealing electrician for a quotation. Mike Gilbert and his son arrived within the day, explained what needed doing and [provided her with a price which she thought was fair given the extent of the work. Mike promised to do the job within the week. Two days later, true to his word, Mike and his team returned to complete the work. My cousin rang me today to say how pleased with the job and the care and concern Mike showed for her predicament. She is delighted with the work and feels much less stressed at the prospect of having to work in her kitchen with such poor lighting. She would definitely recommend Better Heating and Lighting not only for their prompt response but also for their polite and caring manner.

I called out Better Heating and Lighting after seeing their van locally (Ealing). Michael was here within 30 minutes, and fixed the issue in an hour, was very polite friendly and offered good advice, and very reasonably priced. If you need a reliable local electrician use these guys!

I had been without electricity in my loft over Christmas and having tried checking the fuse box, was out of ideas. Mike and his son came round and immediately identified the problem, explained it to me, fixed it, and advised me on further work I could do to improve my electrics. I was struck by the pride they took in their work and the enormous knowledge they had. I was also of course delighted that they were able to solve the problem so quickly, if alarmed at the shoddy workmanship if the people who had done the initial work.

Great work installing highly fashionable but complex ceiling lights in our living room and kitchen. Prompt responses, careful work and clearly masters of their trade.

I think this is the fourth time I've used Mike (and sometimes Benjamin) over the years. Once again they turned up exactly when they said they would, completed the work quickly and to high quality (quite a long list, including replacement of some light fittings indoors and out) and left the place clean and tidy, for which they charged a fair and transparent price. Polite and friendly; happy to recommend them.

Repaired some knackered old light fittings in minutes and threw in the parts for free. Didn't mind a geriatric dog constantly getting in the way either.

Mike has been looking after our electrics for over 20 years and we have always found his work of high quality. Of almost equal importance (and unlike quite a few other companies!), Mike is efficient and reliable in terms of coming on the agreed day and time and doing a good job. And now Benjamin has joined him to carry on the family tradition!

I needed a new power socket in the cellar, run from the consumer unit. Michael and Benjamin came round at the time that they said they would, did a preliminary test of the system, gave me a reasonable estimate and once I'd accepted it, completed the job rapidly. They explained what they'd done, left the area immaculate and I'd be very happy to use them again. Nice people.

Mike and son Ben arrived as arranged and promptly set about solving our electrical problem. They were very professional and efficient, keeping us fully informed at each stage of the work. Both were very personable and polite, and left everything tidy. Highly recommended.
