These guys have just completed a rewire of my new home in Formby. Led by Tom, the team of Josh, Dave, Grace and Ryan were all conscientious and the attention to detail and customer service provided by all was fantastic - to a high level unlike any other trades people (I didn't already know) I have previously worked with in almost 30 years of home ownership. Over the week it was almost like having friends round such was that care and attention to detail.
I would not hesitate to recommend them and being newly returned to the area, I am more than happy to use their network of contacts for other work I need to get done. Top lads and girl ! Thanks very much

Had a partial rewiring incl. new fuseboard and cert done last month. Scheduled within a week, done in a day by Tom and Tom, everything sorted no problem and competetively priced. Mike even came for a weekend emergency call-out with an hours notice (ended up being an issue with the supplier). No frills or faff, just reliable people who know what they're doing and will be there to do what is needed.

I recently had Michael come out and perform some works on my water heater. I reported the problem and he was working on it half an hour later. Really nice guy and really professional. He fixed the issue and talked me through what to do in the future if it happened again. He also gave me his phone number and told me to contact him at anytime if I need anything. Top bloke!

Thomas and Brian arrived when they said they would, provided a breakdown of the costs along with detail on the reasonings for the work that was to be carried out. They carried out the work professionally, tidily and with good and honest humour! Would certainly use them again and recommend them to others.
