I texted James on Saturday morning after finding his details and recommendation here. He replied within an hour and arranged to come yesterday morning to fix a light fitting, that I needed fixing before a reopened my massage business yesterday.


I found him polite and professional and definitely recommend his services to 🙂


Thanks James 🙏

Happy to add my recommendation for James, who I found via this thread. My living room lights had blown ? he was able to correctly diagnose what the problem was just by talking to me over the phone. He replaced a broken dimmer switch and supplied the correct lightbulbs to work with the new fitting. He arrived on time and completed the job efficiently, no fuss. Very pleasant.

James really saved us yesterday as he was available immediately and managed to solve our electrical problem after all our appliances in the kitchen plus boiler have gone...

He really worked hard to eventually find the problem and resolved it - very kind and reasonably priced too!


Would highly recommend him!

I found James via this thread and had him over this morning to install a couple of wall lights. Great guy and very happy with the work. Definitely be using him going forward.

Thanks for all the messages!

Happy 2022

Let?s hope we can ride this inflation and high energy bills out ok

If you still have halogen downlights get them changed now or converted to GU10 LED

They pay for themselves pretty quickly

Lots of good smart stuff waiting to be installed too

Call or text me anytime for any issues and I?ll do my best to help 🥂

I've used James half a dozen times in the past and can definitely recommend him if you're looking for an electrician.


He's moved, removed and added plug sockets and isolation switches for a new kitchen. And also carried out corrective work after an EICR for example changing ceiling light fittings with exposed wiring.


He doesn't replace consumer units and doesn't actually do EICRs himself but I've found him very good for anything else. His prices are much more reasonable than the previous electrician I'd been using, too, and he charges an agreed hourly rate rather than per task.


He is pretty available at the moment.

I just got a new washing machine and was told I had to plug it into a wall socket, rather than use an extension. Frustratingly, the cable supplied was just too short to reach.


Expecting to have a new socket installed, I found this thread and contacted James in hopes that he could help.


He came round the next day. Instead of installing a new socket, he cut two small holes in my cupboards so that the moulded plug would fit through, and plug into my existing power supply.


Very impressed with this simple and practical solution, which he did in less than an hour at a very reasonable price.


High recommendation from me for this excellent craftsman. I will call on James again.

Thanks to everyone who recommended James the electrician - he fitted my small job in quickly (changing some bathroom downlights) and then didn't mind when I asked about loads of other little things. Great job and a great price.

If anyone is in need of a good electrician, here's his number: 07816 160353

I'd also like to thank everyone who has posted about James Seth in this thread (and others).

We had an issue with our RCD tripping in our consumer box (fuse box) which was knocking off the heating and everything else apart from the lighting.

Despite being Christmas week, James came round the next day (had only contacted him yesterday evening) as soon as he was available.

After talking through the issue, he went right to work with investigating all possible causes and managed to come up with a solution.

I was floored by James' kindness and generosity and would 100% recommend him to anyone in need of electrical work, big or small.

As mentioned previously, he can be contacted by phone/text/WhatsApp on 07816160353.

Thank you James for all of your hard work and support!

Thanks for the original post and another 100% recommendation for James the electrician.

Came out quickly to sort a problem we had with bathroom light and extractor not working. Identified the problem and showed me clearly what it was and the fix. All sorted within an hour.

Easy to message on sms 07816 160353.

Friendly, good pricing and clearly knows his stuff.

If you have issues you need to deal with or projects you need help planning I have availability at the moment and would love to hear from you!

I highly recommend James.

I had a few sets of lights (indoor and outdoor) that were no longer working. I texted him yesterday afternoon about the problematic lights, and he had fixed them all by this morning!

Very happy that he investigated the issues and found fixes, rather than immediately saying I needed to replace everything, which was the standard response by others. I had other electricians (many who are recommended on this forum) that came round to inspect the work and told me I'd need to replace the lot for a substantial cost.

Extremely professional and prompt with very reasonable pricing.

I’m very happy to recommend James. He helped me over the phone on the bank holiday weekend & then came round & fixed my electrical issue after, which wasn’t straight forward.
He’s very professional, diligent, helpful & quick - very happy to recommend him to all.

Thanks all for the kind comments 

Just a quick note that I’m currently operating without a van due to someone bashing into it while parked overnight. It sounds like a total loss, so fun ahead!

Thankfully I have an electric bike and can transport quite a lot, just not my ladders. So far that hasn’t been an issue, but the work tail off has continued, so please do not hesitate to call 07816160353 at any time if you have any issues or work that you need doing. 

Cheers, J

Another recommendation for James who came to rewire some sockets today and I will be using again in future! Very friendly and excellent service. Came round at very short notice which was much appreciated.

James replaced old LED tape in our kitchen and did an outstanding job! He is reactive on whatsapp as well based on the numbers shared above 🙂

      The newly landscaped Dulwich Square

      I had no idea about the sourcing of the paving stones - where is the info on this? The extension of the paved area seems completely unjustified- plus, there is a cycle lane right thru the middle so there are bound to be some near misses with pedestrians.

      That's really awful. There must be someone further up the management chain who could be made aware of this?

      To the thief

      By Sue · Posted

      I'm assuming that anybody who has a cat can afford  its food, litter, vets' fees etc. Nobody was saying that two quid is "nothing", but it's cheaper than some brands of cat litter, so was hopefully useful to the OP. Still, hopefully your post made you feel better 👍 🤣 We still don't know why there was a bag of cat litter at the bus stop! Surely it would be rather difficult to take it away unnoticed if the owner of the cat litter was  also at the bus stop? It's not like someone distracted your attention and picked your pocket and you didn't notice till some time later! But what is also confusing me is, if the OP knows where the thief lives, why don't they go and ask for their cat litter back?

      The market is only there for a few hours on Saturdays! Surely all street markets are "a bit tatty"! That seems a strange reason to close a road permanently to traffic!  There is already at least one seat  in North Cross Road (which seems to be quite well used),  apart from those for customers of The Palmerston,  and several of the shops in the road have greenery outside
