An absolute pleasure dealing with Cam and John. Every interaction was friendly, timely and professional. The work was carried out on time and exceeded our expectations in terms of professional diligence. I couldn't recommend highly enough and will definitely be in touch for future work.

I cant recommend TGM electrical enough. They have done a fantastic job wiring up my garden office previously and have used them again today to move a double socket. They are always punctual , friendly and tidy. No job is to great or to small form them. Highly recommended .

Recommended from a friend to carry out an electrical safety check on our new flat, the company were courteous, efficient, on time and corrected a few not very obvious out of regulation fitments. All carried out in the same visit and the certification followed quickly from the office. Highly recommended.

I rang this Company on Weds.27th March 24, due to having only 2 of 6 Halogen spotlights working in my kitchen for the past few months. All a bit dark! Coral assured me of having help quickly, with Matthew arriving promptly the next morning in absolutely dreadful weather. He checked the wiring, which was working and suggested changing to LED bulbs, giving me the option of staying with Halogen. I chose to change, and Matthew then offered to go and buy them. He was quite quick, and set about replacing the bulbs. I was amazed at his efficiency, as some of the fittings were tight. Once done, he offered to change the attic non-working bulb as well. This whole procedure was done without fuss or bother, and Matthew was polite, professional and personable throughout. My kitchen now resembles the Bahamas... and is amazing...Thank you so much for a super duper job and workman. M.H.W.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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 have been using Dorset PAT Testing for a number of years now. Being a professional entertainer I have a multitude of speakers, leads and special effect lighting. I know I can rely on this company to give my equipment a full bill of health or perhaps advise that a power cable might need changing as it is not 100%. They are very through, and I know that I can attend my next event knowing there will be no electrical problems. Highly recommended. Thanks Richard

Absolutely first class from Craig. I totally forgot to get my gear Pat tested and had less than a week before a gig at a venue who required my pat certificate. Craig very kindly came to my rescue on short notice even over a busy schedule to save me with getting everything done and dusted. Will definitely use their excellent service again.. highly recommended!

Whilst I was away on holiday I rang Ricky Stubbs (owner/ partner) he not only arranged the work to be done, he was there unbelievably quick and turned up when he said and completed the work to an excellent standard. The client even told me of her gratitude and was very glad to have the issues sorted so promptly. I will be using Chris Stubbs and son again for sure. Very reliable and friendly.

During a recent storm, I had a full power outage. Ricky responded quickly and came out to fix the problem. He was professional and nothing was too much trouble despite it being late on a Saturday night. I cannot recommend him and the company enough.

Stubbs Electrical and Security have now done extensive works for us across multiple domestic jobs: CCTV, electrical gates, garden lights, security lights, meshed wifi, rewiring and maintenance/ call-out emergencies. They are very professional and polite, providing excellent quotes and always competing the work on schedule. Really impressed and happily recommend.

An absolutely outstanding service from Chris and his two electricians. They worked on our house when we were away completing the tasks in the time that was arranged. How they managed to run wires/cables on coving and behind skirting boards was a marvel. They put all the furniture back in its place and left us with no mess to tidy up. We were expecting to have to plaster and decorate however this was not necessary. The two electricians who carried out the job even looked after our cat in our absence. Very highly recommended. Mike.

Had an electrical problem on a Sunday morning. Stubbs came highly recommended by a friend. Left a message and received call within minutes (none of the other companies returned my calls) Problem dealt with efficiently and professionally. I shall be using Stubbs for all of my electrical needs in the future.

We recently had an electrical fault directly after the recent storm. We gave Nick a call, but because of his current commitments was unable to come out to us. We were astonished though that NICK phoned and talked through the problem giving suggestions on what might be the cause. With Nicks help we were able to solve the problem and find the fault.

Nick of Henbury Electrical has been our electrician for a number of years and he is always very reliable, helpful with ideas and solutions and competitive. I would recommend him without hesitation.

Yup, the good reviews are on point. Gavin & his team did a full rewire of my house, and every aspect of working with him was A1. Starting with a detailed and fair quote; he made great suggestions that I hadn't thought of; the works, and communications were done well and on time; he was flexible to changes in my plans....generally speaking, he has a great attitude, so all-in-all I could relax and trust that the job was in good hands.

I have used Gavin and his team for some outside lighting installation on an Aircraft Hangar at Bournemouth Airport which I am very satisfied with. Dorset Electrical are an excellent choice for industrial electrical installation requirements. From start to finish very professional and safe at all times and I would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone.

Catch Weymouth WOW! WOW! WOW! What an experience!! We were very lucky to get a table at CATCH Weymouth  on september 11th and I completely messed up the times. We were meant to dine at 6pm and have the 4 course tasting menu and turned up at 6.45 by mistake. The host was so understanding and got us a table for 7pm with the 6 course evening tasting menu and we were so very grateful. This was one of those once in a lifetime opportunities where you experience a true culinary experience at a level unsurpassed.  Chef Mike Naidoo and his BOH team created a tasting menu beyond belief. Each course was delivered by the FOH team and then Mike would attend the table and give a full description how the dish was created and all the elements of cooking and ingredients. This for us, along with having our taste buds taken to on a journey of discovery and delight, to have chef at our table was the most amazing part of the evening,  to have such a highly esteemed and much respected chef spend time with us. Thank you chef for the most amazing and educational evening and for introducing us to the highest levels of culinary excellence Huge thank you hugs Andy and Miles

Outstanding!!!! From arrival to departure we were looked after. All the staff are exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable about each course and the wine. We will be returning! My only feedback was that I felt the restaurant was cold. However, it has high ceilings and is open plan! I imagine heating isn't easy and expensive! So I'll take a shawl next time it's not a problem.

The best meal I have had in a very long time. Every mouthful was a joy - delightful different flavour combinations with exceptional standard of fresh products. You could tell a lot of thought and love went into every course. Favourites were the pea and cod croustade, the mackerel tartar with pickled elderflower and the jam doughnuts were a gorgeous zingy bomb that took me right back to childhood puddings! We had a fab waiter who really entertained us and made the whole experience more special and personalised. I would recommend to anyone who wants to try super fresh, seasonal seafood showing off what the sea around us has to offer. I haven't stopped talking about this place.

Lovely traditional cafe, actually opens early enough for breakfast (most cafes seem to open at 9 or even 10 in mid-September). Starts getting really busy around 9, so best to go slightly earlier. Service is wonderful, the staff made us feel so welcome we went back the following day. Food was good and substantial, nothing fancy, but good stuff and good prices. Jacket potatoes for breakfast fueled us for a long hike in the sun, and the egg custard tart was wonderful: light and not too sweet!

Last month on our mini vacation we found this cafe by walking around. It looked busy even on that Thursday morning and we didn't want to miss the opportunity to try. Properly run business where a customer feels like a valued customer. The breakfast time was over but I still asked if they could do the porridge bowl. And they made it for me! Beautifully looking and very delicious food was that! We also tried the vegan chocolate cake and we liked it so much that we bought more for take away. The staff had an excellent attitude towards their job & customers and they were very hardworking. They have colouring books for grown ups and kids as well if you prefer to be creative while having a coffee/ waiting for your food. We left satisfied and happy. Glad we popped in and I can only recommend this cafe. P.s. dog friendly place. We regretted not to bring our Labrador out as he would have enjoyed his visit too.

Despite being regulars in Weymouth for years, we've never made it to EBIKE CAFE... until now! Happy to report that we had a really nice Sunday morning brunch, sat outside on the harbour. Despite no frittata, the lovely Gina made us perfect Pancakes, awesome Avocado (on sourdough) and a sensational Sunshine Smoothie Bowl; all generously portioned and washed down with a really good flat white. Will definitely be on our regular list now. Recommended!
