“Most of my work is domestic: consumer units, full and partial rewires, lighting and EICRs on houses around Basingstoke. I test and certify everything I fit, and anything else I find while I am there gets priced separately rather than added quietly to the bill. The electrician who quotes your job is the one who does it.”
