Ask your electrician to provide a reference and contact number of a previous job similar to the job you require doing. Most respectable electrical contractors now have websites or Google reviews online so take time to do some research and make sure the contractor meets your requirements. Smart Electricians pride our selves on reputation and referrals but don't take our word for it see what our customers have to say.Quotation and Contract
Once the electrician has visited your property and you have discussed in detail the work you want undertaking a written quotation should be issued along with a contract or written agreement of what work shall be undertaken. It's also a good idea to ask your electrician how any unexpected extras will be charge. Unfortunately due to the nature of the trade extras are common as we often don't see the issues until the installation is exposed or further investigated. Smart Electricians will always consult the customer before any extras or repairs are undertaken.Price Comparison.
Price comparison is vital when it comes to choosing the right electrician. We recommend that you get a minimum of 3 quotations for the job in hand. There are an abundance of electricians in Sheffield, ranging from smaller 'one man bands' to large electrical company's with 50+ members of staff so there could be a significant difference in price depending on the job in hand and the size of the companies quoting for the job. Smart Electricians always provide our customers with a price breakdown this will help you when it comes to comparing different aspects of the quotations. If there is something your unsure about ask the questions.
