10 Tips to Find a Reputable Tradesman in Rotherham – Why MP Electrical Stands Out

Finding a trustworthy tradesman in Rotherham can be a challenge. With so many options out there, how do you know who to trust with your home improvements, electrical work, or repairs?

At MP Electrical, we know the industry inside out and have built a trusted reputation for quality, professionalism, and reliability. Here are 10 essential tips to help you find a reputable tradesman—and why MP Electrical is the right choice for electrical work in Rotherham.  

1️⃣ Check for Certifications & Accreditations  

A reputable tradesman should be fully qualified and accredited by a recognised governing body. For electricians, this means being NICEIC or NAPIT registered, proving they work to the highest safety standards.  

✅ MP Electrical is fully NAPIT approved, meaning our work meets the latest BS 7671 wiring regulations* and UK safety laws.  

2️⃣ Look for Real Customer Reviews 

A good tradesman should have genuine reviews from satisfied customers. Check Google Reviews, Facebook, and Trustpilot to see real customer experiences.  

⭐ MP Electrical is rated 5 stars on Google with dozens of happy customers in Rotherham.  

💬 "Absolutely fantastic service from MP Electrical! Clear communication, great workmanship, and no mess left behind!" – Steve, Rotherham

3️⃣ Avoid "Cash in Hand" Deals  

If a tradesman offers a cash-only deal with no receipt, it's a red flag. Legitimate businesses provide proper invoices, so you have proof of the work done and a guarantee if something goes wrong.  

✅ MP Electrical provides a full invoice and warranty on all work, so you have complete peace of mind.  

4️⃣ Get a Written Quote, Not Just a Verbal Price  

A trustworthy tradesman will give you a clear, written quote, breaking down costs before work begins—not a vague number over the phone.  

✅ At MP Electrical, we provide fixed quotes upfront, with no hidden costs.

5️⃣ Ask About Experience & Specialisation 

Tradesmen should have years of experience in their trade, not just be "handy" with tools. Look for specialists who have a track record in the type of work you need.  

✅ MP Electrical has years of experience specialising in:

🔹 EV Charger Installations 
🔹 Solar Panel Fitting 
🔹 Consumer Unit Upgrades 
🔹 EICRs & Electrical Safety Testing  

6️⃣ Make Sure They Answer Calls & Messages Promptly 

A reliable tradesman communicates clearly and promptly. If they don’t respond to your calls or messages before the job, they probably won’t be reliable during or after the work.  

✅ MP Electrical has a dedicated customer service manager, Ben, who ensures we never miss your calls! 📞  

7️⃣ Check for Insurance  

Any reputable tradesman should have public liability insurance to cover any accidental damage or injury. If they don’t, you could be liable for costs if something goes wrong.  

✅ MP Electrical is fully insured for all electrical work, so you’re protected.  

8️⃣ See If They Use Proper Contracts & Guarantees  

A professional tradesman will offer a guarantee on their work and a contract detailing the job scope. If they refuse, be cautious!  

✅ MP Electrical provides full guarantees on our work, ensuring your peace of mind.  

9️⃣ Beware of Pushy Sales Tactics  

A reputable tradesman will give you time to think over your quote—not pressure you into making a rushed decision. 

✅ MP Electrical offers free, no-obligation quotes and lets you decide in your own time.

🔟 Support Local & Look for a Proven Track Record  

Supporting local businesses means better service, better communication, and better aftercare. Large national companies often overcharge and offer poor follow-up support.  

✅ MP Electrical is a trusted local business in Rotherham, providing high-quality electrical services with a personal touch.
