About

I (Peter Whiting) began working as an electrical apprentice in 1983, this was a full 5 year apprenticeship. On finishing my apprenticeship I set up my own business as a sole trader in 1988. The limited business began trading in June 2002.

The business is family run and some of the electrical services we offer are shown in the details below.

You will see I have many reviews showing despite only being endorsed as a Which? Trusted Trader from April 2018. The reviews I have from before this time are from Which? Members who have used my services and recommended me to other Which? Members. (These reviews are from Which? Local and I am able to now use these within my endorsement) Any questions about the reviews I am happy to answer.

Please contact me on my mobile number to discuss your electrical needs. I look forward to speaking with you.

Regards Peter

Good work completed very efficiently

I was really impressed with the work carried out by Peter. He answered my call straight away. He gave me a time to visit my premises the very next day, although he was busy. He gave me the price up front for a standard call out. The work was completed successfully and he genuinely seemed pleased he had solved my problem. I will definitely be using Peter Whiting Electricians again. Brilliant service.

I arranged for Peter to come and sort out a bathroom light which had defeated me due to more than the usual wires from the ceiling. Peter re-scheduled a visit to me with no fuss, kept in touch by text and email, and did an excellent job. Peter is very personable and efficient. I would highly recommend him, he’s reliable and his rates are reasonable. I have no regrets and am very pleased with the job. Many thanks.

Peter undertook 2 separate electrical tasks for us. Both were completed quickly and to estimate.

We could find no fault with any aspect of Peter’s work. He responded quickly to our request for an estimate was very helpful, made useful suggestions and was considerate of of our particular needs. He worked quickly, took great care to preserve our decorations and minimise any disruption that the work might cause. We are very pleased with the end result and would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him to those requiring a totally professional, friendly, reliable electrician.

Additional Power Sockets

I had some additional power sockets fitted in my garage as part of the preparations to turn it into a reception room. I was very pleased with the work Peter did. He arrived exactly on time, did a very neat job and tidied up when he was finished. I will definitely ask him to do any future electrical work I need. Highly Recommend.

Replace bathroom light

Peter Whiting responded to my request to mend or replace my bathroom light quickly and efficiently. I sent him photos of the broken light and he came the day after I had contacted him, earlier than estimated, with a new light fitting and fixed it in 10 minutes. We agreed a cost before he came. Peter was very knowledgable, friendly and efficient.

Outstanding electrician

We are so pleased to have found Peter. From the outset he has been a clear communicator and quick to respond, highly knowledgeable and personable too. We had a challenging job that we had been looking for years for someone willing to take on - to update the electrics in our 1930s Art Deco house whilst retaining the original toggle bakelite switches and causing minimal disturbance to the original floors and ceilings. It was a very complicated job and Peter found all sorts of solutions to meet our needs whilst also ensuring the work met current safety standards and would be durable. He was punctual and tidy, worked incredibly hard, was positive throughout and is clearly very skilful. We had almost given up on the project when we found him so are absolutely delighted to have our house updated but with all its character retained, just wonderful. He is also a very nice person. We recommend Peter very highly indeed.

Kitchen wiring mystery solved
Customer Service
Quality
Value
My flat had been rented out many years while I was abroad. A number of electricians had come and done quick fixes for the landlord's safety certificate. But what kind of work had they done, and what was that mysterious problem in the kitchen? Not all 'trusted traders' are equal. With Peter there was none of the sense of distrust that I often had when discussing the problems with the kitchen wiring and how much it might cost to put right. Peter communicated clearly and was happy to explain things in a way I could understand. He was as clear as was possible about how much time he would need and the price. There were no shocks and work was completed on time within the agreed budget. I recommend Peter for this reason and because he did a sound job, was punctual, neat and tidy. The kind of work that should be standard, but sadly is not. People's ideas about value for money may vary, but I feel I paid a fair market price, and am planning to ask Peter to complete some other work in the future.

Having used Peter previously on a couple of occasions I knew he was the man to call when we had a problem following a power cut. He came within 24 hours of 'phoning him and he regularly kept us informed of his likely arrival time while apologising for not being able to come sooner. He always provides a first class service and you feel completely at ease with him in your home. Geoff L.

One morning I work up and went downstairs and tried to turn the light on and it just made a fizzing exploding sound and went out. This was really difficult for me as I work from home and good lighting is essential at all times. I called Peter early that same morning and thankfully he agreed to come early the next day. Although it was an early start he was energetic and enthusiastic and soon had the light working again. As I had explained what had gone wrong beforehand he came with all the essential equipment; it might have been a new fuse. He also brought his own ladder. He completed the task within 15 minutes; amazing!! I was really impressed. During this time we also had a general chat about life and he said that, given his time again, he would still choose to be an electrician. Thank you so much for all your hard work Peter. You started the day off really well for us both.
