Called in Nick and Chris to do a general check and electrical safety certificate. Chris's approached seemed extremely thorough. He found a number of issues that needed to be fixed. I was left feeling a whole lot safer and reassured. I would definitely have work done by Chris again. Job done to agreed timescale and within budget. Second time we have used Nick and Chris and will go back to them if we ever need anything more doing. I would definitely recommend.

We no longer had power in any of our sockets downstairs as the fuse kept tripping, leaving us with no power downstairs and our freezer defrosting. We emailed Cox & Taylor that night and asked for a response asap the next day. I received a call about 8am and someone came round straight away. After a thorough examination the problem was found and sorted - all within the same day. Really pleased and definitely would use again. Big thanks Cox & Taylor!

Time waster
I contacted this company and got a reply in return from Nick Taylor. "I’m sure we could fit it in before the end of the week if you are happy with the cost?" I was happy with the cost so I said please go ahead. Heard nothing more. Chased. Appointment made but unfortunately he didn't bother showing up. Called to ask why but phone was not answered. If you are looking to have your time wasted, I couldn't recommend Nick Taylor from Cox and Taylor Ltd highly enough. If you are looking for an electrician to do a job, not so much.

Kenji the electrician was brilliant. He came quickly. It was an urgent call as we’d lost power. He hunted for, found and sorted the problem. He then helped with a couple of minor problems too. Highly recommend.

Having spoken with a few companies Nick Taylor really stood out with his can do attitude. I was on a tight deadline and needed an electrical certificate quickly. Nick promptly visited my property, started the work the same day and finished on time as he stated. I would definitely be recommending Cox and Taylor.

Cox and Taylor have been absolutely fantastic in helping me with all relevant electrical works from adding several new circuits to the installation of our fire alarm and smoke system. I took on the job to convert an empty shop into a cafe in Lewes and it would be fair to say there were times I thought I had taken on too much. Nick and his team have been responsive to my calls at all times and the quality of the work is second to none. I have no hesitation in recommending these guys for any residential or commercial work you may be undertaking.

Cox and Taylor conducted a full electrical safety report for our flat and made the whole process effortless. Very easy to communicate with and undertook further work as a result. Invoice and report arrived promptly and Mr Taylor was helpful dealing with our queries from beginning to end.

New electrical safety standards for landlords

Nick Taylor undertook a DEICR in February/April 2018 and carried out the recommended works to comply with current regulations. When new electrical standards were introduced in July 2020 on rented properties my letting agents did not understand the implications of the regulations and tried to insist I needed new certification. Nick took the time and trouble to explain that this was not required to ensure I didn't need to duplicate the procedure and that the previous certification was valid for 5 years. I was impressed with the professional way he approached the problem to satisfy all concerned. I would not hesitate to use his firm again.

Work involved resolving existing electrical faults picked up on an unsatisfactory DEICR (Domestic Elelectrical Installation Report). This is now required by law when renting out domestic property. The work was professional, competent and finished on time without any mess. Nick Taylor kept me informed at all stages and explained the work thoroughly. I can certainly recommend his business.
