As the title says, mine is busy for about a month, any recommendations to change some downlighters in the kitchen?

If you don't get a reply from one on here, use the niceic website to find someone who lives down the road. Small job, one evening, cash in hand, easily sorted.

Try Rob Kerr, RK Electrical. He is based in Fleet and his prices are good, fully registered etc.

Mob is 07884363239.

He may be able to squeeze you in depending upon what it is. Tell him Alex from Fleet gave you his number.

I know this lad very well. He has done work for me, and other members of my family and is good. He also works with large commercial companies = supermarkets, building companies and the like. He has menu pricing which makes life a lot simpler.

Gave me a quote, other half said it was fine, so looks like we're going for that.

Thanks for all your recommendations.

aha! My Grandparents were down that end - lived there 40 odd years I think then passed it on to my uncle, he only left a year or two back (hmmm wonder if you're in their house?! )

SIL's parents lived directly opposite (val and hugh fleeman - he was a driving instructor, both died earlier this year)

Coming down the road we're the last house on the right before you get the garages for the houses on Anstey Road. It's amazing how many people have random connections to Alton!

I know the one you mean! The Fleemans were just a few doors up from you then, you'll probably see a dark Blue Boxster S outside your house from time to time, that'll be my brother biggrin.

I know the Boxster you mean!! Day to day its the MINI parked outside, but occasionally stop in with the Healey. Its such a small world, when we were buying it my other half was chatting to her parents about it all and they said the address sounded familiar and it turns out her step cousins live just up the road as well (#26)!
