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

We contacted Peter about possible implications of an issue with our lighting. He took time to discuss and clarify the issue and made space in a busy schedule to come and check key parts of the system. We found him helpful and conscientious and will use his services in the future.

Peter Whitting carried out a very comprehensive electrical survey on a house my son was buying and identified a number of essential safety improvements. After the house was purchased Peter was asked to undertake the necessary work , including replacing bathroom downlighters and earth bonding. He also removed redundant old sockets and wiring, fitted attic lights and obtained and installed a non standard sized cooker hood. He turned up on time, was helpful and professional and can be recommended with confidence.

Peter carried out a formal Periodic Inspection survey and subsequent total rewiring of our newly purchased flat. During the survey he was very keen that we should see for ourselves the previously poor state of the wiring and encouraged us to discuss the report findings and measurements with the NICEIC customer support line prior to going ahead with the rewiring. The rewiring job itself was carried out exactly to our specification (plug/socket positions etc). Chasing out the runs in the walls for the new wiring created heaps and heaps of dust, but Peter and his mate were very concientious in cleaning up and left the walls in such a state that they only required us to surface fill with plaster and smooth. At all stages, Peter was good humoured, kept us up to date with his activities and was generally great to work with. I would have no hestitation in having him back for any subsequent electrical changes to our property.

Peter provided a very prompt and efficient service, fixing a light switch in my kitchen. I have no hesitation in recommending his services which are also reasonably priced.

We used Peter's services to wire in an induction hob which needed an additional connection to the main circuit board. He was very friendly, efficient and knowledgeable. I would definitely use him again.

I had a fairly straightforward job of installing a pair of porch lamps. Peter promptly responded to my initial invitation, and we arrived at a date shortly afterwards, to which he arrived on time. The job proved to be a little more complex than anticipated, but he nevertheless completed the work to a good standard and the lights seem to be working properly. His rate was reasonable, and he subsequently emailed me a VAT receipt. I thought that Peter undertook the work effectively, he had a very pleasant manner, and gave me a couple of maintenance pointers. I would definitely consider using him again if the need arose.

I needed a new connection installed so my new oven would be separate from my hob. Peter visited and emailed the quote a few hours later. He did the work a couple of days later at a time to suit me. He dismantled and re-installed a cupboard to gain access and took old oven outside. Helpful, friendly and efficient.
