Hiring the right electrician is extremely important.After all, working with electrics is dangerous and must be carried out to good standard.
I come across a lot of shoddy and dangerous work in Bristol , where the home-owner or business manager has hired the first electrician they invite to quote without doing any research.
When you invite an electrician to quote for your project, take the time to ask questions as you need to make sure you hire a registered electrician.
If your not sure what to ask the electrician, look at our top 5 questions:
If your thinking about hiring an electrician in Bristol ,This is the most important question to ask.The electrician must have the right qualifications. Being with either NAPIT or NICEIC confirms for you that they have the right qualifications and insured to the minimum requirements. You can check to see if the electrician you want to hire is registered on the NAPIT ,NICEIC or the competent electrical persons register (all on-line and does not take long).
Having insurance is important,If you hire an uninsured contractor you can be liable if anything goes horribly wrong. We have 5 million public liability and professional indemnity insurance.
Any reputable electrician will provide some sort of warranty / guarantee on their work, this is to protect you if any thing goes wrong once the job has been completed. At Burridge Electrical we have a 6 year NAPIT guarantee on all our worksmanship!
A reputable electrician will have no problem providing a written quotation that outlines the work described and a price.We like a paper trail, for both our benefits.
An Electrician that is not registered with NAPIT or NICEIC will not provide you with a certificate for any works carried out, again with out any certification you may find yourself liable and face potential fines from your local council. Not all electrical work requires a certificate but you can ask the electrician if the works require one.
Never hesitate to walk away from an electrician if they can not give you a straight answer or can not answer these above questions satisfactorily. Always look into who you hire, even a quick google search will give you a good idea of which Bristol electrician you can hire.

!! Take Care When Selecting an Electrician !!
Many electricians in Bristol are simply not interested in the small jobs.They want the choice jobs and will drop you when a bigger,supposedly more lucrative project comes in.
Others advertise as electricians having no qualifications.They thrive on the basis that you don't understand what they do and as a result charging for shoddy,and often dangerous electrical work.
I set up Burridge Electrical to provide you with a quality service and provide you with exactly what you need from a qualified electrician.
