How it works
Tell Andy what the job is. He answers his own phone on 07966 390864 — there is no call centre and no one else to be passed to.
For anything beyond a small repair he will come and see it, talk through the options and take the measurements he needs.
Free and with no obligation, itemised so you can see what is required against what is only recommended.
The work is carried out to BS 7671, tested on completion, cleared up after, and handed over with the right certificate.
What customers say
Summarised from the verified reviews on the Which? Trusted Traders profile. Every one of them can be read in full over there.
A big, complicated job including a partial rewire carried out while the household was still living there. The customer described the work as quick and competent, praised how little mess and disruption there was, and noted that Andy cleared up thoroughly at the end of each day.
Adrian, Northamptonshire · August 2022
Verified review on Which? Trusted Traders
Faulty sockets and a heat detector replaced and ceiling lights repositioned. The customer's requirements changed several times along the way; the quote was revised each time and different solutions were offered rather than a single take-it-or-leave-it option.

Verified review on Which? Trusted Traders
A quick quote at a price the customer thought reasonable, the certificate provided, and the last few items finished off promptly after payment. Summed up as genuine and trustworthy, and someone they would use again.

Questions
The things people ask most often before booking an electrician. If yours is not here, ring and ask.
Yes. Andy Mathieson has worked as an electrician for over 30 years and is an NICEIC registered domestic installer, Part P compliant and qualified to the current wiring regulations. AJ Mathieson Electrical is also a Which? Trusted Trader and a Checkatrade member, so the registration and the customer reviews can both be checked independently before you call.
Corby itself and the villages around it — Weldon, Great Oakley, Stanion, Gretton, Cottingham, Rockingham, Middleton, Brigstock and Geddington — along with Kettering, Rothwell, Desborough, Thrapston, Oundle and Uppingham. If you are just outside that, it is still worth ringing to ask.
No. Quotes are free and come with no obligation. Ring or send the form with a rough description of the work and Andy will come and look at it, talk through the options, and put a written price to you.
An Electrical Installation Condition Report is an inspection and test of the fixed wiring — the consumer unit, the earthing and bonding, and every circuit. Landlords in England must hold a satisfactory EICR for each rented property, renewed at least every five years, and give a copy to the tenant. Homeowners are not obliged to have one, but an inspection is worth doing before you buy or sell a house, or roughly every ten years.
A rewireable fuse box with ceramic fuses, or an early plastic-cased consumer unit, does not give the RCD protection required today. It is worth changing, but a board change should always start with testing the existing circuits: putting RCD protection onto cable that has never had it will immediately reveal any insulation faults hiding in the installation.
Yes — tripping breakers, dead sockets, flickering or dimming lights, burning smells and scorched fittings. Faults are traced with test instruments by splitting and testing circuits, rather than swapping parts until the symptom disappears. Where the fault turns out to be in the incoming supply, the network operator is called out and the case put to them on your behalf.
Yes. Every job is tested on completion and handed over with the appropriate certification — an Electrical Installation Certificate, a Minor Electrical Installation Works Certificate or an EICR, whichever the work calls for. Notifiable work is registered under Part P.
Yes. Alongside domestic work Andy takes on small commercial installations — shops, offices, salons, workshops and units around Corby and Kettering. Larger industrial projects are outside what a one-man business can properly commit to, and he will say so rather than take the work on.
Ring Andy on 07966 390864 for a straight answer, or send the form and he’ll call you back. Quotes are free and there is no obligation either way.
