EICR + associated works + light fittings - excellent work!
Richard quoted fairly, gave good advice in advance of the appointment, found an appointment slot swiftly, did the EICR thoroughly, fitted the new flush ceiling lights, sorted some snags, talked me through the work and answered my daft questions! Work was kept to schedule and the budget, and it was very easy. Big relief after having another electrician trying to take the mickey over the same job. Thank you, Richard - glad I found you!

Minor Repairs - Highly Recommended
New to the area, we needed an electrician for various minor works in our new home. These included faulty light switches, damaged fittings, and ventilation covers. Richard was clear in his estimate and in explaining what was needed. He acquired the necessary parts and fitted them. He was punctual and careful around our property. We found him to be thoroughly professional, returning calls promptly. We will be happy to use him again and recommend him highly.

Outside light
Richard came today to replace an outside light for me, and change 2 wall sockets and a smoke alarm. He arrived on time. He was very efficient, extremely tidy and very polite. He went above and beyond as I hadn't booked him for the 2nd socket. His pricing was fair. I highly recommend Richard.

High quality work and outstanding service
The service provided went far beyond my expectations - all work was carried out to a very high standard, emails were responded to promptly, and additional advice and links to useful information were given to me. RS Electrical UK rewired my kitchen, carried out an EICR, installed a bathroom fan, rewired a hall socket, and installed a new consumer unit. I had recently used another trader (not a Which? Trusted Trader), but their work did not meet regulatory requirements. It gave me peace of mind to contract RS Electrical UK to put things right, and I highly recommend them.

Expert, knowledgeable and very thorough
Richard is excellent. He has done big (rewiring) and small (new lights) jobs for us. He comes into his own when diagnosing a problem which lots of other electricians were not able to solve. He is methodical, thorough and comes up with a solution that works. We had a number of electrical issues resulting from flood damage and in the past poor wiring. He gave us a work plan of how he was going to solve everything, a break down of costs and timings - he delivered on everything, solved the electrical problems and did it to time. His costs are very reasonable for the excellent work he does. And he is just the nicest person to deal with.

High quality work, fast service and polite. Happy to take on a small job.
We found RS Electrical on this site. They responded quickly to our enquiry and came within a couple of days to quote to replace our kitchen under-shelf lighting. The quote was clear and slightly the cheaper of two we received. On acceptance, they came to do the work three days later and completed the work and cleaned up all within two hours. We are very happy with our new, brighter, well-fitted lights. Highly recommended.

Top quality, highly recommended
Anyone from London understands what a challenge it can be to find the right tradespeople. Thankfully, Richard impressed me with his professionalism, responsiveness and helpfulness throughout the entire process. He provided a fair quote, answered my questions thoroughly, and completed the work expertly. I have no doubt I'll be returning to him for all my future electrical needs.

Unreliable
Made Contact in Nov and was told they would do the work in Jan which worked well for me. Chased for quote numerous times and after 6 weeks of this was told not interested. Being let down 2 weeks before due to start has now delayed the refurb as I need the electrical person first. Now likely to lose the builder who has advised he has another job if he can start in January Another unreliable unprofessional tradesman.

Professional and pleasant tradesman
Richard did a number of small but necessary jobs for us on the same visit. They included wiring a doorbell to the mains, replacing an exterior light and chasing in a new spur connection. He did all of them neatly and efficiently. He turned up punctually when he said he would with all the things he needed and left everything clean and tidy when he left. I found him pleasant to deal with and very professional. Would not hesitate to recommend him.

Richard fitted downlighters in my kitchen and utility room. He was efficient, tidy and expert. I was very happy with the outcome and the service. He was also extremely responsive to all my queries and his pricing was competitive. We have already asked him to do another job for us.

Outstanding.
Richard undertook a range of electrical work in our house over several days. The bulk of the task involved converting a large number of LV halogen lights to LEDs, but he also addressed various switching issues, replaced a bathroom extractor fan and installed some exterior lighting. His free quotation was meticulously researched and competitive, and the work was duly completed in accordance with the previously agreed budget. We were to source one particular light under a guarantee, but this proved more complex than we had expected. When we eventually received the fitting, several weeks after the other elements of the work had been completed, Richard returned to our house and made the installation without any additional charge. He was a pleasure to deal with throughout the job, and I recommend his services unequivocally.

Richard came to diagnose a problem we had with a failed LED ceiling light. He arrived on time , was very polite, and diagnosed the problem very quickly. He also advised on a couple of other electrical issues we have. I will definitely contact him about any future electrical problems

Excellent work, highly recommend
Richard conducted an EICR and replaced several of the light fittings in my new flat. I was delighted with the service provided by Richard. He was extremely helpful and responsive over email and telephone answering any queries I had and explaining the work he was quoting for and completing thoroughly. I was delighted with the quality of his workmanship and the detail provided in his EICR survey. He was also very friendly and arrived on time. No hesitation in recommending his services.

Richard has provided an outstanding service. His honest and objective assessment on our electrics served to benefit us over himself. He was punctual as well as very knowledgeable and efficient in his work. We were so glad to have 'picked' just the right electrician off the 'list of options' to come and provide a service rather daunting for ourselves. His details are being kept close at hand for next time! Thank you Richard for excellent service!

Electrical safety
We searched Which for an electrician and found Richard came highly recommended for the electrical safety check we wanted. He was quick to respond to our query, punctual, thorough in the work carried out, and he gave detailed feedback and recommendations to follow up. Very reassuring!

Upgrade of fuse box and house electrics
RS Electrical undertook a replacement and upgrade of the fuse box and house electrics following a previous very poor and dangerous electrical installation. The work was undertaken with great care and attention. Nothing was too much trouble and any questions were addressed professionally and quickly. The electrical installation of the fuse box and the replacement of cables and general tidying up of the existing installation has been done to a very high standard. I would fully recommend RS Electrical.

Excellent thorough work
I found Richard through the Which website, as I wanted an EICR check on my flat. Richard carried out this check and his findings showed some recommendations to meet this standard. I also made him aware of some faulty socket in my kitchen (basically dead sockets) which I was concerned about. He put in an earth main to my gas meter and fitted a new metal fuse box (safer than my old plastic one) with an extra residual trip to protect my lighting (which was not there before). He worked tirelessly to find the cause of the faults to my kitchen sockets. He found these and fixed the problem, this was a huge relief, as they were a concern, and they are all working again. Richard is quiet and polite and takes the time to explain things so you can understand. He works extremely hard and with precision and I couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

New Fusebox and re-wiring
I would highly recommend Richard. He has completed two jobs for me - including new light fittings and the replacement of an old fuse box and re-wiring (including full testing and certification). He has always been on time, very polite and tidy. A very honest trader and reliable electrician and am pleased with the work he has done for me.
