Rated 5.0 from 48 Google reviews.

Nash and his team were brilliant! They wired a loft conversion, replaced a consumer unit and installed some new fans. Work was all top quality, completed with great communication and in line with when they said they would complete. Would 100% recommend!

NSS wired my extension (sockets and spot lights), my utility room, installed security lighting, carried out trouble shooting and upgraded my consumer unit (very neatly); all at a reasonable cost. All staff were friendly, helpful and highly competent and I would not hesitate to award 5 stars.

Ian Sharpe via Google

Very creative in finding solutions to some of the previous owner's DIY adaptations. Very flexible, Nash spent a full Sunday sorting an issue thrown up when we updated the fuse box.
