I have called London and Kent to do an electrical report and fix whatever come during the report and also to change the electrical board. They did the report but never sent the quote to do the bulk of the work.

I worked previously with Tony, and expected good quality again this time, but he was even better than the expectations. I had two problems, one related to hot water, the other one to lightning, and in both cases I found that he is a good listener, and happy to educate me on loosely related things I was asking about, such as how the heating panel works.

Alfie and Sam came to move our consumer unit and to finish off a rewiring job. As ever they were professional, courteous, and did a fantastic job with minimal fuss. I have used London & Kent on several occasions now and they're my first point of call for any electrical work. I can't recommend them highly enough.

They installed new under cupbaord lighting in my kitchen in Greenwich. Alfie had come round first for a quote and then send me photos of similar jobs done earlier. He also made some good recommendations. It took two weeks before they could do the job due to other work commitments but they kept me informed . Sam did the actual work. He was friendly, quick and very efficient. I would recommend them without hesitation.

I contacted London & Kent about a couple of electrical jobs needed at my flat - bathroom lighting not working and a corroded bedroom light fitting. Communication was good, and Alfie was able to arrange the initial and follow up visits at weekends which was very convenient for me. Pricing was fair and as per the initial quote, Alfie was polite and friendly and did a great job. I was a little nervous about using a firm I hadn't had personally recommended, but very glad I went with them and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to others.

Alfie and Sam previously installed new electrical wiring and switchboard in my house. They were extremely professional, great value for money and the quality of work was outstanding. All the work was completed on time, within budget and I got my electrical certificate. I have continued to use them for any electrical work ever since, and as before, the work is outstanding. As such, I would highly recommend them to anyone thinking of availing their services!

London and Kent (Tony Phillips and team) carried out a few pieces of electrical work, including a NICEIC Electrical Condition Report and follow-up, at my flat in Rotherhithe, which is currently let. It was very easy to contact them and communications were always easy and quick throughout. They were flexible in liaising between me and my tenants and in dealing with new issues that arose. They stuck to time and exactly to the quotes they gave me. When the tenants had a problem operating the new boiler controls Tony's team were quick to step in and help them. I would definitely go to them again.

This firm undertook the rewiring of my house earlier this year and I wish to highly recommend them. Clear and comprehensive quotes were provided and adhered to and the work was of high quality both the electrical work and making good and redecorating afterwards and every effort was made to minimize the disruption as I was resident in the house all the time. It is a large Victorian house and inevitably problems were found with the building during the rewiring such as damp infiltration and perished plaster,and any additional costs were explained and agreed and these problems were dealt with very well.

From my experience of London & Kent I would highly recommend using this firm. They undertook the full electrical rewire of my 2 bed terrace house, made good all disturbed finishes and then decorated internally. I was kept informed of progress and they completed the work on time and in accordance with their original quotation. The overall finish was to a high standard and the property was left neat and tidy with the relevant NICEIC Test certificate provided ready for the ingoing tenants. Sincere thanks to their team of Tony, Alfie, Sam, Becky, Frankie, Jonathan and Kieron. Review by Mike H in Greenwich.

I couldn't recommend the team more. Alfie did the initial assessment of the work required and promised his team would be there at 8am the following Friday. Sam and Franky turned up at exactly 8am, and immediately started on a number of electrical jobs I had been saving up. The first was some electrical work in the bathroom: to lower the height of a light switch and put a permanent live to a shaving socket. What on the face of it was a simple job turned into many hours work and involved dismantling a shower in order to be able to run cables, due to some interesting electrical decisions from the builders who first put in the bathroom. The main job was actually to fit some kitchen LED lighting, which was finished to a very high standard, with Sam and Franky staying late in order to get the work finished. I will definitely be using London & Kent for any future electrical needs.

Highly recommend. Extremely professional, quoted a fair price, fast to respond and confirm a date (a Saturday). Punctual and polite, Alfie is a lovely guy who clearly loves his work. Quickly and efficiently replaced old halogen lights in bathroom ceiling with better, plus new fittings, with lots of helpful advice. So impressed, have asked him to quote for two other electrical jobs in my apartment. Great to find someone who’s both excellent and happy to do small but essential domestic electrical jobs. Especially when his company also works on large shiny corporate projects!

Having been let down badly by a previous company I am so glad I contacted London & Kent. From the start they were responsive, friendly and clearly knew what they were doing. They even came on a Sunday morning to find out what my problem was (no plug sockets working) and get me back up and running with partial power until they could come back to fix it fully. Even happily moved furniture around (and waited for me to hoover until they put it back!) to get to the sockets. Extremely reasonable price (cheap even) for the time they spent (and definitely in comparison to other company I'd used). Very happy customer with fully working electrics!! Highly recommend...

I am extremely pleased and would definitely use this trader again and would recommend them should my neighbours need a plumber or electrician.

London & Kent, and our engineer Lee, was absolutely brilliant from start to finish. He turned up promptly to provide a quote for complete boiler removal and replacement, including rebuilding the flue and external outlet. His quote came in far more reasonably than any of the other engineers we asked and once asked to do the job, he obtained the right boiler straight away and quoted the job would take one day, possibly into the second. I have never been so impressed with the service we then received as Lee got to work. Polite, tidy and extremely hard-working, he couldn't even be persuaded to stop for a cup of tea once. He finished the job by 6pm and tidied up the area completely, including removing the old boiler and waste, not needing the second day at all. He worked on his own all day and so efficiently we were both stunned looking on. Could not possibly have received a better service and I will be recommending this business to anyone and everyone. On top of the quick, polite and very efficient service the whole job came in £2k less than some of the quotes we originally received. 100 out of 100 for a very professional service.
