Testimonials

DOMESTIC - ELECTRICIAN
I recently had Chris Downes Electrician of INSTA-LEC Electrical Services Ltd wire our ‘Tardis-Shed’ (which is bigger on the inside than it appears on the outside).
It is an odd-shaped building and I wanted the electricity run from the main house to the shed so I could enjoy working in it more often.
The job Chris did was exceptional, extremely tidy and the wires were very neatly run throughout the building and secured to the beams in a clean fashion.
I now have a separate circuit-breaker and plenty of sockets for a heater, various tools, radio and lots of good lighting in the usual dark spots.
It is wonderful—my ‘home away from home’. More importantly, Chris is honest, works to a high standard and completed the job on schedule. A pleasure and a relief to have a fully qualified electrician you can count on. I highly recommend him.
