We originally arranged a troubleshooting check which was booked in really promptly. Following this, I think it was a little uncertain about what the exact problem was but the electrician … More who came out (David) was able to discuss with the wider team. There were then concerns on the safety of our problem so the team kindly arranged to come out really promptly and make sure everything was safe. This also seems to have fixed the problem. I was really impressed with the initial response but also the insistence for further review when a safety issue had been identified as well as the service regarding this.

Thanks ChrisAs a couple in South Wales we can barely switch out a light switch between us. When our bathroom extractor fan broke we needed to find someone to get it sorted quickly. … More Turns out our consumer unit was rather out of date and, as we are thinking of selling in a few years, thought we would get that replaced too.We sought multiple quotes. MJP was the cheapest by far. Chris came over and looked at the work that needed doing, clearly explained our options/solutions and what they all meant. We are grateful that he was able to explain it in terms we understood.After considering the quotes and the attitude of those coming around to provide the quotes, we opted for MJP.Chris was due to arrive at 8, we had a text from him at 7:40 to let us know he would be arriving soon. He was on time and just as friendly and professional as when he was providing the quote and trying to secure our business.Throughout the several hours Chris was in our house, he was friendly, kept us informed of progress, explained the work he was doing and what it meant.He then walked through the work he had completed before leaving our property and checked if there was anything else he could do for us before leaving.Chris is an asset to the business and is an ambassador for great quality electrical work/customer satisfaction.MJP - we don't know how much Chris earns, but he deserves a raise! Fantastic ambassador for your company. We will be happy to recommend him and MJP to anyone and everyone we speak to!

Needed some remedial work doing when moving into our new house. MJP were easy to contact, super helpful and very upfront with the costs.They came and fitted our new consumer unit and … More arrived at the time they said they would. After completing all of the work they found a sight problem with a light the was proving complicated to fix. They went out of their way to stay a lot longer than planned to get this fixed and we couldn’t be more thankful for their professionalism on our job.Fantastic work to a fantastic standard. We will certainly use again when we need more electrical work completing.

Chris recently completed a lot of demanding electrical work at my property . He was extremely polite, professional and worked extremely hard for many hours. He explained everything … More to me as the works progressed. He is a brilliant electrician and a huge credit to the business. I can speak highly of Jordan too who has carried out some work at my property. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend MJP Electrical Services to anyone. Thank you Chris. You're a star!

A: You can check directly on the NICEIC site https://www.niceic.com/householder/find-a-contractor
or read our full and detailed article here: How can I check if an Electrician is qualified and registered?
A: Every electrician hold an ECA card which proves competence and be fully qualified to 18th edition standard.
A: The simple answer is, You CAN’T. It is illegal for any person to sign off work and say he had done the work when he clearly did not. If that person is a fully fledged registered and accredited Electrician or Gas Engineer and he lies about the installation he can pretty much kiss his career goodbye.
A: Whenever a approved electrician completes any form of electrical installation work on your home, a form of certification must be provided.
Whether you’re installing a new oven, an air conditioner or replacing your switchboard or light switches, you will need a safety certificate from your approved electrician.
A: You CAN do electrical work yourself under Part P You do NOT need to get a registered electrician to verify it. For some types of work (notifiable jobs), you need to notify Buildings Control (and pay a fee) . They will then inspect the work at first and second fix.
A: From April 2013 electrical work in a dwelling, or associated with its surroundings, is notifiable to a local building control body where the work includes:
- the installation of a new circuit, whether at low voltage (typically 230 V) or extra-low voltage); or
- the replacement of a consumer unit (fusebox); or
- any alteration or addition to an existing circuit in a special location*, whether at low voltage (typically 230 V) or extra-low voltage
*A special location is a room containing a bath or shower, swimming pool or a sauna heater.
An alteration or addition to an existing circuit in a room containing a bath or shower is notifiable only where carried out in the space surrounding a bath or shower.
An alteration or addition anywhere within a room containing a swimming pool or sauna heater is notifiable.
A: Since 2005, all electrical work in dwellings in England and Wales whether carried out professionally or as DIY, and whether or not the work is notifiable to a building control body (see below), must meet the requirements of Part P of the Building Regulations. In April 2013 the requirements for England were amended.
Compliance with Part P is intended to keep you and your family as safe as possible from electrical hazards.
The requirements of Part P apply to new dwellings and to any alterations or additions to the electrical installations of existing dwellings, including full or partial rewires.
Part P states that anyone carrying out electrical work in a dwelling must ensure that reasonable provision has been made in the design and installation of the electrical installations in order to protect any persons who might use, maintain or alter the electrical installation of that dwelling from fire and injury, including electric shock.
A: By law, the homeowner or landlord must be able to prove that all electrical installation work meets Part P, or they will be committing a criminal offence.
Local authorities have the power to make homeowners or landlords remove or alter any work that does not meet the requirements of the Building Regulations.
A: Things to look for are:
- Approved by a recognised governing body like the NICEIC
- Insured – NCIEC will ensure this
- Qualified – NCIEC will ensure this
- Recommendations
- Communication
- Good Attitude
A: What you do need is to get a registered electrician to verify that what you’ve done is safe apart from some “minor” jobs like changing sockets or moving them a short distance.
What you might find is that a lot of electricians won’t verify your work, so you end up having to get them to do the job.
