Before they start
Ask exactly what the job involves and what it will cost, including parts. Ask when they can come and how long it will take. Ask whether they handle the specific thing you need — rewiring, fault-finding, an inspection — rather than assuming.
On Prouva, providers list the specific services they offer, so you can check the fit before you even message them.
- What exactly does the job involve, and what is the full cost including parts?
- When can you come, and how long will it take?
- Do you handle this specific job — rewiring, fault-finding, an inspection, a new circuit?
- Are you registered as a business, and can you give me a BRN?
- What guarantee do you offer on your own workmanship?
About their track record
Read their reviews, focusing on reliability and quality. Look for a Verified badge. If they've replied to past reviews, that tells you how they handle feedback. Reviews backed by an invoice or contract are checked and marked Verified, and count for more — so they're the most reliable signal of a real, completed job.
After the work
Make sure everything works before they leave, and keep the quote and any receipts. Then leave an honest, factual review — it protects the next homeowner and rewards a good electrician. If you kept the invoice, uploading it lets your review be marked Verified.
