About
Collins Electrical is a small South East London electrical firm. The day-to-day work is domestic electrical: re-wires, fuse boards, additional circuits, fault-finding, and the inspection and testing certificates that landlords, sellers and conscientious owners need.
The aim is straightforward - tidy work, the right certificate at the end of it, and a price agreed before the job starts. See the full list of services.
"I'd rather do one job properly than three in a hurry. If a board needs replacing, replace it. If a circuit is sound, leave it alone and tell the customer so." Paul Collins, proprietor
What customers have said
"Came when he said he would, quoted before he started, finished on the day. New consumer unit and a couple of extra sockets, all certified."
"Used Paul for the EICR on our flat before re-letting. Clear report, fixed two small remedials the same day and re-issued the certificate."
"Full re-wire of a 1930s terrace. Plaster damage kept to a minimum, very tidy, and the price was what he'd quoted. We'd recommend him."
