Report
We have worked with MGS for since opening and I have used them at a previous company for both commercial and residential jobs. Their attention to detail, organization and knowledge is second to none. The staff are all very polite and helpful whilst being highly professional. I have used several electrical companies in the past but MGS are our preferred choice of electrician and we would highly recommend them without a second thought.

Left live cables hanging out of 2 walls and instucted customer that they were safe to fill in. Absolutely shocking! The company have since dealt with this and are putting the electrician through further training. Company as a whole seems good we unfortunatly met one bad apple
