Peter Whiting Electrical Contractors Limited

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.

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.
