As a fan of exposed brick and wiring I was ecstatic to see the results of the Keith Gunn engineers work. They even left the smashed bathroom tiles in a convenient location for any arts and crafts projects I might want to undertake! My only complaint is that the wires could have been left more exposed so I could feel the warm current on my skin as I shower

Keith Gunn isnt only an electrician, but a world renowned Interior designer! His minimalist approach to his craft is truly a breath of fresh air, along with a breath of fresh asbestos! 4 stars - one for each hole Keith delicately placed in my walls

Really professional and efficient service, with all work completed to a very high standard. I've used this business a number of times (for lighting installation, carrying out an EICR, socket/wiring replacement, etc.), and have always been incredibly impressed by how responsive they are upon receiving enquiries, as well as by the quality of the work itself.

I got a consumer unit replaced. This whole service from booking to payment was effortless. Booked online which showed date and price of the job. Engineer turned up on agreed date and did a fantastic job, was respectful of space with a young infant and answered all questions and concerns I had about the job. All invoices, receipts and certificates sent to me a few days later. Great service for the customer would highly recommend.
