Perfect service. Would 100% recommend.

I have only recently signed upto rated people , find me on yell to see my 5star rating and read reviews. From leaving school I have always worked as an Electrician, I served my apprenticeship with a small successful family run business. This electrical business eventually grew into a building firm giving me an insight into many parts of the construction industry. I started DiGiT back in 2017 and it has proven to be a success, I have now branched out into property maintenance and have successfully renovated multiple properties. Reputation to me is massively important and I will always strive to achieve 100% customer satisfaction. I will communicate in a way that you will understand and pricing will always be made clear so both partys know exactly what is going on. I am currently up to date with all electrical legislation and I have both my 18th Edition and City and Guilds Test and Inspection qualifications. Paper work will be given once jobs are complete and you will pleased to know I am registered with Napit, an electrical governing body meaning my work is assessed constantly to make sure that jobs are being done not only to the clients wishes but also to the current rules and regulations.
