Testimonies
"Dear Mr Payne, Thank you for sending me your invoice and the electrical certificate for the installation of wiring to my garage. As you will remember I was very apprehensive about digging a a pathway through the garden for the armoured cable. However, you accomplished that with negligible damage to the plants. I am very well satisfied with the new facility in the garage [armoured cable feeding a garage unit for sockets and lights] and with the other items of work you carried out. If other electrical work is needed here I will have no hesitation in asking again for your assistance; and certainly I would recommend you to any of my acquaintance in need of such work. Yours sincerely, Edward Elliot"Edward Elliot - Donhead St Andrew, Dorset

" Last year we searching for a trusted, and reliable electrician, to come and inspect five properties here in the New Forest, and then, carry out all necessary work. Matt Payne's name was passed on to us, and well, we are so glad it was. Matt came down and carried out an inspection of the first property, the Chapel, and then carried out the necessary work. The board of Trustees we very impressed with the professional way the inspection was carried, and the high standard of subsequent work. Without any hesitation the Trustees agreed to ask Matt to inspect the other 4 properties. Again the work was carried out and completed to a very high standard. We are very thankful for the work he has done, and would highly recommend him, without any reservation, to others.” Aaron Lewis, Mockbeggar
"We wanted to renew our kitchen and whilst my husband is a very good DIYer, with all the rules and regulations regarding electrics, he knew his limitations. So, despite names of electricians given by friends, we wanted to ensure that the person we chose was properly qualified to do the work within our home. We searched around and found Matt. What a find! We wanted to rearrange the wall sockets and have new one put in and sort out the main earth bonding. Not only was Matt able to give us the necessary quote at a fair price but he also gave us his valued advice and guidance and always allowed us to make the final decisions. This proved it's worth - we found that the previous 'qualified' electrician had wired the cooker direct to the socket at a diagonal angle - even my husband knew that was wrong and dangerous! It didn't matter what we asked Matt to do; he was there to offer his assistance. He was always prepared to go the extra mile and it was a pleasure doing business with him. He has since done a lot more work for us including fitting a new consumer unit, converting single sockets to doubles, installing electric heaters, installing outside lights and running armoured cable outside for a new circuit. Would we recommend him? Only if it didn't interfere with any work we wanted doing!" A word from the husband: "I agree with everything my 'manager' has said!"Margaret and Henry Sam's - Salisbury, Wiltshire
