Solar panels and batteries.......... What a great company. From initial contact and planning, utterly professional. Ben quite obviously sought to provide what was required rather than pushing for a bigger order, rare these days! Cracked on with the work. Super fast, very tidy and very conscientious. Price wise BB Electrical supplied a bigger system then others for similar money. Without a doubt I would have no hesitation about recommending this company. Deal with them, you won't be disappointed.

From first contact I found Ben from BB Electrical to be great at communication, he kept me updated with everything step by step, so I felt assured and at ease that the job was going to be completed in good time and without any worries. I had an extremely fair price for the work, Ben and his team executed it to the highest of standards. I’m delighted to have found and to recommend BB Electrical to others. Will no doubt use again in the future

Great service from BB Electrical. We were looking to get solar panels for our home. Ben came out and took the time to explain the system to us and gave a very thorough quote. The work was completed to a very high standard and the team were professional throughout. We are delighted with our new solar panels and are already enjoying the benefits.

Employed BB Electrical to carry out a scheduled Electrical Inspection Condition Report for our warehouse unit @ Bournemouth Steel. The inspection and all remedial works were completed in good time, they were tidy, courteous and did an excellent job. New 3 phase consumer unit installed with galvanised containment and re-wiring where necessary. Would definitely recommend

We would highly recommend and am more than satisfied with the services provided by LET Electrical & renewables. Right from the initial introduction to Lewis and his services he was very informative and he patiently listened and answered all questions. Lewis handled all paperwork and assisted with the finance application and kept us updated at every stage of the order and installation. On the day of the installation Lewis and his team were very efficient and patient with us and the dogs! and kept everywhere very tidy as they worked. On finishing took all rubbish and insured that we understood how the solar panels and batteries worked and set us up with the app to view the savings (Which becomes addictive).

Lewis carried out my job which was reapplying hall lights back on to walls and replacing face switches for new. He was very punctual, friendly and courteous. When completed the job he ensured everything was tidied and I was happy with the work he had done. I shall use this company again and I highly recommend them. They are value for money and workmanship is excellent.

Thank you to Lewis and his team for their admirable work installing my solar panels. I was kept updated at all times and Kieran and Marley worked long hours ensuring the work was done to a high spec and as speedily as possible. The scaffolders employed were also superb, A1. Everyone was super-polite and respectful. I'm looking forward to sorting out the final paperwork and going on grid with my mini supply! Would and will recommend LET Electrical & Renewables unreservedly to anyone.

I recently had electrical work done at my home by LET Electrical & Renewable and I am extremely pleased with the results. From the initial consultation to the completion of the job, their professionalism and attention to detail were outstanding. They explained everything clearly, ensuring I understood the work needed, and provided valuable recommendations on how to improve the safety and efficiency of my home’s electrical system. The team was punctual, worked efficiently, and left everything clean and tidy when they were finished. The quality of their work is exceptional, and I feel much more confident in the safety and reliability of my home's electrical setup. I highly recommend LET Electrical & Renewable to anyone looking for skilled, trustworthy electricians who deliver great service at a fair price. Great work Lewis.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Despite Richard’s work van breaking down in the morning he could of easily postponed the installation of our EV charger for another day, but he sorted out another van keeping us informed all the time and carried out the work later on in the day. Really friendly guy and would highly recommend. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I was referred to Charminster House by my dentist. I cannot recommend Saffina and her team highly enough. There has been a complete improvement with my gums since I have been under their care. I had a deep clean treatment carried out by Saffina and have had regular 3 monthly check ups with hygienist, Josie. Everyone I have seen at CH has been extremely caring, friendly and professional. Thank you all for putting me at my ease and for all your help and care.

A great experience had! I have been under care here since early 2021 having been referred by my Dentist for an issue with my gums. She also identified an issue I had been having with a tooth that she recommended and required extraction and her explanation settled me. My treatment also required me to see Felicity the Hygienist who also took particular care explaining and showing the correct way to clean my teeth. This is an exceptional practice that has the greatest of care for their patients.

From the receptionists, dental nurses, hygienist and periodontal specialist they have been fantastic throughout my journey. They all put me at ease and made me feel valued. Saffina the periodontal specialist is extremely professional and caring, with no judgement, showing compassion towards me. I was filled with hope after stressing about my teeth. The hygienist in between was also very caring and highly professional and sensitive towards the fact I was terrified about having needles and would put me at ease throughout, continually checking I'm okay and the dental nurses holding my hand to relax me. I cannot praise this place enough. On top of all of that I've never had to wait, literally would check in and was seen straight away. They all work so well as a team to run the practice at a high standard. Thank you to all. Jo

I have had amazing treatment from Saffina and her assistant. They were both the best. Mu gums were in a terrible state, with “advanced gum disease”, but today, they told me my gums were great! They certainly feel hugely better. saffina doesn’t need to see me for a year. Massive THANK YOU to you both.

Beautiful food had 3 courses and all were beautiful, service was well paced and not fast so you get to enjoy the dishes . Steak was more than an 8oz fillet and my wife’s seafood linguine was in her words divine. Waiters were lovely and honoured to meet one of the chefs . Thank you

This place is remarkable. I honestly feel like I have to leave a review because I had a private room booking for party of 7 (engagement celebration). The team took care of us extremely well and I want to give special honour to our hostess Verity, so sweet, so patient, clear in her communication- 5 stars for her. The food was gorgeous and pretty affordable in my opinion . Some portions were small but I understand that it is more on fine dining side. The only critique I would give is about some cleaning aspects in which the rooms had like old cobwebs, spider webs on the windows, just could use a deep clean.

We found The Sun Inn on google maps last minute, are plans had changed. What a find, lovely welcome and a very nice carvery , roast beef or turkey loads of veg all hot and fresh. I recommend booking in advance as it was very busy, they squeezed us in on a barrel table, not suitable for everyone, we didn’t mind they asked us first.

Visited The Sun Inn whilst staying in a holiday cottage 5 mins walk away. We booked in for a second time that week because we enjoyed it so much! Highly recommend the carvery, it was delicious. Can’t fault the staff, they were all lovely and so attentive. Great atmosphere, and great pub in general. Would suggest booking in advance because it’s very popular.

Have had two visits over the Christmas holidays and both times and found the food, service and atmosphere really good. Have not had the carvery yet but the beef burger, chicken burger, pie of the day and cold cuts have been good value and filling. Many thanks to all at the Sun Inn

Thank you for accommodating us as walk-ins for the Sunday Roast. The food was delicious, the staff were welcoming, the atmosphere was warm, relaxed and peaceful (some places can be very noisy during afternoon roast dinners). We have also tried the outdoor seating previously for some nibbles and the review remains exactly the same. We really enjoyed on both occasions and we will definitely return.

I unfortunately had a filling come away from a front tooth, I felt awful and embarrassed.....I did not anyone to see it. I managed to get an appointment quickly with a lady dentist....she gave me advice on what she could do for me, after discussing my options I went for veneers on my two front teeth....she worked on my teeth for a mould to be taken. I then had to go back for another mould to be taken.....my third appointment was to have the veneers fitted. The whole experience was amazing from the receptionist, dentists and assistance, I could not thank them enough.....thank you once again x

Excellent dentists and assistants. In this day and age I am not supposed to say this but they are "all good looking". I suppose after saying that, I will be taken away to a place of execution and shot. We are all able to get dentistry on the N H S providing the practice is registered with the N H S. It's not the dentist that is registered but the practice.
