  Mat put some external lights on either side of my garden path to make it safe for me to walk to my front door, in the dark and particularly in the winter. I am really delighted as they are small and discreet so you don’t notice them in the day time, but at night they light up the path really well. He also put some recessed lights on either side of the steps and these are also small and discreet but give off a lot of light in the dark. I would recommend Mat to anyone. A great job.

  Mat & Tom did a full rewiring for us during an extensive renovation job. They brought loads of energy and professionalism to the job. All circuits were rewired, a new consumer board installed, new lights, switches, and sockets throughout our property. Throughout Mat and Tom worked in a timely, focused and efficient manner. They also coordinated well with other contractors which made project management easy, and ensured timely handover between 1st and 2nd fix items and joint work – like underfloor heating and an air source heat pump. The project was delivered on time at a competitive price. Communication was… [read more]

  I called Mat and he arrived to install two wall lights the very next day.

  MS Electrical carried out the full electrical installation on our new build property. This was right from the meter box, which was not on the house so required a lot of electrical work before even getting in the property. Matt had to liaise with a number of other trades. e.g main builder, heating engineer and solar power company. Mats preparedness to work with others (I hasted to add that Mat had never met or worked with these specific trades people before) really did make a positive impact on the progress of the build.
