great electrician - Richard Mitchell

Recommended Posts

Just wanted to share back that I asked Richard to come do some work for us today- based on previous forum recommendations... and was v pleased with his work. Three new sockets (2 inside, 1 outside) plus extending light flex. he was friendly and efficient. here's his number if you need something done: 07931 890 286

Richard replaced all our halogen ceiling lights with LEDs in December 2014, an excellent job at a reasonable price.

We had a problem with one of the dimmer switches on Friday last, and he came on Sunday to fix it, even though it was outside the year's guarantee. Highly recommended.

I would like to add my recommendation for Richard, I found him via the forum by doing a search for "electrician". I phoned him on Friday late afternoon and he arranged to come Saturday morning at 9.00am.


He did a host of things for us from sorting out a tripping switch, fixing a dimmer, changing an extractor fan in the bathroom, sorting out our outside light, and finding out the problem with the halogen lights in the garage.


He waited whilst we went to get extra parts which were needed.

He is a really nice guy, worked really hard, and was very reasonably priced.

I would definitely recommend him and will use him again.


Richard can be contacted on 07931 890286

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
