Andy White has done several jobs on our stair and is both efficient and reasonably priced. Very capable on stair lighting - we haven't used him for anything else.

Report
We had a problem installing a a two gang 240V electrical socket with USB sockets. Simple job but after replacing the socket and re-setting the circuit breaker, we had no power on that circuit. Andy solved our problem in just a few minutes. Very clear and very helpful.

The supply to my garage was damaged on the Sunday and AEW helpfully gave up his dinner to come out and fix it since it had tripped the entire house! Thanks again.
