Design Electrical NI installed an EO electric car charger. Lisa is extremely professional, efficient and courteous. She provided the information required, answered any queries and provided an accurate timeline for each step of the process, keeping me updated at each stage. Colin arrived punctually and fitted the charger with the minimum of fuss, always clear in his guidance. Once again, professional, efficient and friendly. I can recommend this company for a job well done.

Had an EV charger installation carried out by the engineers. Both the contact with the company and installation was quickly and professionally handled. The installation was expertly and tidily performed, and all credit to the engineers for maintaining social distancing policies. A post-installation query was also handled extremely swiftly and professionally by the company, which exceeded all expectations. I highly recommend the company and will certainly use them in future for any electrical work. Many thanks.
