I can’t thank Byron and the SES Electrical Contractors team enough! After waking up to no electricity in the house, I spent hours calling other electricians but couldn’t find anyone available. Thankfully, I was recommended SES Electrical, and from the moment I spoke to Byron, the service was amazing. He kindly offered to troubleshoot the issue over the phone before arranging a visit, patiently guiding me through a few steps and helping me resolve the issue myself! This saved me at least £300 in Electrian costs/call out fees, and was such kind and professional service which made my day. I highly recommend Byron and the SES team enough for any electrical needs!

I highly recommend SES for any electrical work! Byron and the team are super experienced and trustworthy. It's definitely worth it to have someone do the job right. They were neat, tidy, and really friendly throughout the whole process. I can't fault them at all - great service and a pleasure to work with!

We are delighted and relieved to have connected with SES Electrical Contractors, which has systematically sorted out a number of overdue issues with electrical installations including emergency lighting, fire alarm systems and most recently adding motion-sensor lighting for the communal staircase. The managing director, Byron Sanders, went the extra mile to ensure that this latest installation was the best it could be. We have now met several SES technicians and they have all been professional, capable and personable. I have no reservations in recommending the company.

Byron visited us to help diagnose a fault we've been having with our oven. He was courteous, efficient and communicative throughout explaining his findings in an easy to understand way. He has provided consistently excellent service in the past helping us diagnose a problem with the electrics of our boiler over the phone and assisting in the sourcing and installation of a range hood. I highly recommend SES and Byron!

The lads came by in short notice to our restaurant in Crystal Palace, installed and programmed a new state of the art four zone panel and alarms etc. With all of it being fairly priced. Would recommend as tradesmen nowadays can’t be trusted but not these guys. Be sure to ask for Milad!

Prompt and thorough service. Great communication throughout job with Milad, and his electrician Mo. Reasonable and transparent pricing. Fixed my old halogen lighting connection problems brilliantly, and Mo went to extra lengths to ensure a further hole not required in my washroom.

I received a quote of £1,100 and I had been told that my fuse box should be replaced and the earliest time they could do it for me was 8 days after the quote. I contacted RCD and they immediately came and had a look and the engineer told me that he is able to fix the fuse box for £140 and it could be fixed by replacing a part only. The other company either was over-charging me or they did not have enough experience to deal with the matter. I am extremely satisfied by the job they did for me and the reasonableness of their quotation. Thank you

Came round Monday gave me a quote. Installed on Friday going from a very unsafe fuse box with no earth wires connected (first picture) to a fully up to date safe fuse box (second picture). Also installed the new electric cooker moved the failsafe switch to a much safer location and issued a safety certification. Very pleased with the job Milad did, arrived on time and will definitely be using RCD electrical again.

I would give this company a 6 stars review if there was such a thing! I couldn’t be happier, and any more satisfied with the job they done in my flat. My entire flat got rewired and a new consumer unit was installed in a highest possible quality. Very knowledgeable, skilful, and experienced electrician that I couldn’t ask for anymore. Thanks RCD Electricians, I will definitely hire you again. Highly recommended.

Colin is a very nice and polite electrician who did a sterling job today. The installation of the light in a high living room was clean and straightforward, very professional. He provided us with a quote for prospective jobs because we definitely recommend him. His manners are outstanding, and moreover, his prices are good.

Colin is great! He came round and changed, moved and installed two wall lights for me, including the channeling in the plastering and replastering after. He was efficient, stuck to the quote and was a a very nice/friendly/professional guy - great job! I would very happily recommend him/ ask him next time I need an electrician.

Colin did a fantastic job on our flat. We needed quite a few things done, spotlights, light fixture replacements and socket installation and Colin and his team got it all done within a day and for a reasonable price. I even bought the wrong bulbs and Colin very kindly went to buy the correct ones. Very happy!

My experience with this company was very positive, Colin was able to do a last minute bit of work on my flat. He arrived very quickly and was able to complete the job perfectly. He also even went and grabbed some additional spare bulbs for me. I would recommend Colin he was very polite and helpful.

I had an absolutely wonderful experience at Drury 188-189. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, with warm lighting and a charming decor that instantly makes you feel at home. The charcuterie board was stunningly presented, featuring a delightful selection of cheeses, cured meats, fresh grapes, and nuts, perfectly paired with the creamy dips and olives. The attention to detail and quality of ingredients were evident in every bite. The staff were incredibly attentive and friendly, ensuring our experience was seamless from start to finish. Whether you’re looking for a relaxed evening with friends or a romantic date spot, this place is a hidden gem in London. I’ll definitely be coming back for the amazing food and great vibes!

Looking for good coffee? The guys at Drury get it. The coffee was fantastic, the scrambled eggs on toast were fab (get the British Bacon, thank me later!) and the coconut porridge was spectacular. Definitely worth a visit.

Food & service are great! Enjoyed the coffee and French toast! The 2 tables in the middle are a little close together and not pleasant, maybe some furniture shuffling and a fresh coat of paint. Will be back though. :)

Drury 188-189 truly lives up to its reputation as one of the best cafés in London. Located in a central spot with a cozy, welcoming atmosphere, it’s perfect for a quick bite, a full meal, or just to relax with a good coffee. The variety on the menu is impressive—from small bites to proper meals, including scones with jam, they have something for every craving. Food I tried the Eggs Benedict and Eggs Royale, and both dishes were exceptional. The lattes were perfectly crafted, smooth and creamy, and the Coco Loco smoothie was a refreshing addition to the meal. The flavors were spot on, and the presentation made everything look even more inviting. Atmosphere & Service The atmosphere is both cozy and bustling, which adds to the charm. The staff is friendly and attentive, making you feel right at home even if it gets busy. Just keep in mind it can get quite crowded, so be prepared for a short wait of around 15-20 minutes during peak times. But trust me, it’s worth every minute! Final Thoughts Whether you’re a local or just visiting London, Drury 188-189 is a must. With great food, a central location, and a warm vibe, it’s one of those places you’ll want to return to again and again. Highly recommended!

Brilliant Brunch spot in Covent Garden! Drury 188-189 is an absolute gem. The French toast is perfectly light and indulgent, but the highlight has to be the baklava pancake.The cosy atmosphere and lovely staff make it even more enjoyable. I’ll definitely be back!

I recently had some electrical work done in my house by Mason & his team, and I couldn't be happier with the results. The electrician was incredibly professional and knowledgeable. They arrived on time, assessed the situation quickly, and provided a clear explanation of the work that needed to be done. I highly recommend this electrician for anyone needing reliable and high-quality electrical services!

I found Mason on My Builder, and although I'd received cheaper quotes, I chose to go with Mason because he was responsive and honest with his communication. Less than a week after initial contact the work was complete, Mason was friendly, and his work was great. No complaints, I no doubt will be using Mason again and have already asked for further quotes.

Mason did a fantastic job across the entire house. The quality of his work was 10/10, and no job was too big or small. The price was fair, communication was polite and clear, and he kept me updated throughout. He was friendly and professional, making the whole process smooth. Highly recommend!

Couldn’t recommend more highly. We needed an EICR for a property we were buying; George was able to attend and provide the report the same day, and even returned to the property to double-check an issue we raised at no extra cost. Very trustworthy, and great service.

Very delicious meal. We ordered a Full English breakfast and French toast, both dishes were perfect. The beans in the English breakfast are delicious, the sourdough is not too hard, and the bacon is not too salty. The French toast is very soft and tasty with berries and syrup. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting London!!

My husband and me are from Chicago, so we have REALLY REALLY high standards for what we consider “good” food and service and this place takes the cake. We came back after an amazing first experience. All of their ingredients are fresh, the portions are big and most importantly the food is DELICIOUS. We ordered the avocado bliss toast and the omelette along with fresh pressed apple and orange juice. An absolute banging way to start the day. Don’t read any other review, just go and see for yourself also, 5 stars on the staff, they were attentive and helpful!

Fantastic food but goodness is it close quarters in there. Definitely shoulder to shoulder and you need to move your table to be able to get seated. Loved the French toast and eggs though. Certainly the best I’ve had in London

My mom and I were Museum hopping in the great heat (not recommended for the weak) and I was googling cafés nearby as I was in desperate need of an iced latte. Not only did their coffee taste amazing, the atmosphere of this cafe is so cozy. It was a great pitstop for us and if we are in the area again, we would definitely return.

I'm incredibly impressed by the speed and quality of work. I called in the evening asking to fix my electric heaters and Andrew was happy to fix them early in the morning the next day. Its a very trustworthy person, I left the key with him, and when he finished he was happy to drop it off at my work place. Andrew takes time to make sure everything is done properly. Very highly recommended. Brilliant service!!!

An excellent service provided by London Electricians 24/7. Andrei was immediately ready to assist when two storage heaters needed fixing and his price quote was very reasonable. He came within the hour and quickly resolved. I would highly recommend to anyone who is in need of an electrician, particularly at short notice.

I cannot recommend this service highly enough. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 I had no water Saturday morning, and arranged a visit with Andre for Sunday in the 12-5 appointment window. I had a restaurant booking for 2pm Sunday I had forgotten about and when I called Andre to see if he can please come closer to 5 so I wouldn’t miss my outing, he went above and beyond for me!! He arrived within a few hours (late on a Saturday night,) checked my boiler out, and came back this (Sunday) morning at 8am with my new boiler. and a helping hand to have it installed. I write this with a new boiler installed about 24 hours after reporting the problem, on my way to my booking with no problems. Never has something that felt like a crisis gone so smoothly. Thank you SO much Andre!!!! He was also careful and considerate with my very curious cat and I really appreciate that as well. A friendly guy who does a great job. I will absolutely be recommending this service to anyone I can, and hope this review has helped you decide this is definitely the right company to call. 🤝

Really lovely experience dealing with Andrew , the installation was quick and efficient. We got the boiler in 2 days later after the one we had broke . Usually you would have to wait at least 7-14 days for a new boiler to be delivered. He even repainted for us ! Will definitely be using him again for anything we need and would highly recommend him to other people Thanks so much Andrew !!
