Through my UW business, I’m always keen to build relationships with reliable local tradespeople I can confidently recommend. I recently contacted Vital Phase UK Ltd, Electrical and Fire Solutions, while selling my flat. I had some awkward, non-standard light fittings which made finding replacement bulbs difficult. Vital Phase UK Ltd replaced the fittings with standard ones, making it much easier to buy bulbs and a practical improvement for the new owners. The service was quick, tidy and professional, and I also received helpful advice on some other electrical questions. It’s great to have a knowledgeable and reliable electrical business in my network. I’d happily recommend Vital Phase UK Ltd.
My request for new sockets with cabling channeled into the wall was very specific. Phil Vella made sure he fully understood the requirement and checked at various stages that it was exactly what I required. Testing was thorough, explaining the tests and showing me the results. The work done was more than a simple request but the charge was for standard installation which was more than reasonable.
Would highly recommend Phil from Vital Phase UK.
Phil has helped us with a few things now and he is super helpful and very professional. Definitely recommend him and his services.
Excellent service! Quick and efficient! Highly recommend!
Phil has done a couple of jobs for us at a couple of properties, absolute professional! Knowledgeable and really friendly. Will be using him again!
In our bedroom the lights were flickering which was a problem for my wife as it would cause headaches. I said I would get it sorted but it was continually delayed through my procrastination. I explained the problem to Phil from Vital Phase and he was able to instantly troubleshoot what the issue was, we organised a date and time for his arrival and was able to sort out the issue very quickly. Even though it was something I could have attempted to resolve myself, I was at ease to have him there and sort the problem. Phil is professional, courteous and a pleasure to have in our home, I have every confidence in recommending him to anyone in need of an electrician, thank you very much for sorting out the issue of the flickering lights and my wife is very happy to have this resolved
I would like to recognize the superb service provided by Phil Vella and his staff at the Whitgift Avenue, South Croydon branch of Vital Phase UK Ltd. With very short notice they quickly installed replacement smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in my flat and supplied photographs of their work. They provided an extremely professional service throughout the whole process. John T
Phil from vital phase made a difficult job look very easy. I wanted to add a new socket for my TV above my fireplace. Phil looked at various options with regards to the circuit whilst maintaining the integrity of the building. Phil used a specialist tool to chase the circuit at high level into the wall. The circuit was tested and the installation was left clean and tidy. Would highly recommend. Regards Mr E Fish
Really pleased with the service from Phil at Vital Phase UK. He arrived on time, was polite and professional throughout, and clearly knew exactly what he was doing. He even brought shoe covers — a small touch, but it showed real respect for my flat. Would have no hesitation recommending him for any electrical work!
I am not usually a reviewer of goods or services but, in an age when it seems quite difficult to find reliable tradespeople, l feel that I should commend the services recently provided to us by Vital Phase. In particular, if the work required would only qualify as a small job, it is almost impossible to find dependable help. I believe that Vital Phase has some sizeable contracts, but they were able to complete our small repair in a timely manner. They provided a clear technical explanation of the problem and the solution and carried out the work at the prearranged time. It is refreshing these days, in our throw-away society, to find a firm that is prepared to actually carry out a repair, rather than just instantly suggesting replacement of the defective article. I would highly recommend Vital Phase.
This is the second time I have used Vital Phase's electrical services for two different properties and the quality of service, responsiveness and expertise were excellent on both occasions. Phil is great to deal with, he communicates regularly, he listens and is friendly and professional and most importantly knows exactly what he is doing! Phil pays attention to detail, and he and his team tidy and efficient. Highly recommend.
I called Phil to sort the lighting in my home after being highly recommended him by my trusted plumber. He was very thorough, and did such a great job. He went above and beyond to get the work done in my flat and I can't thank him enough! I will be using Phil as my electrician forever now. In addition to him being a great electrician, he is also a lovely, kind man. Would absolutely recommend to anyone. Thanks Phil!
I had a gas certificate fail due to unearthed gas pipes, and Phil Vella of Vital Phase Ltd responded quickly after I sent him a video of the issue. He promptly came to my premises and resolved the problem efficiently. While there, he also noticed some poorly fitted ceiling lights and fixed them without hesitation, even though it took longer than expected. Phil is a kind, professional, and customer-focused electrician, and I highly recommend him.
Phil, Carried out two small jobs for me, which I hope will be the first of a number of jobs which I need carrying out. Work was carried out with a minimum of fuss to a good standard.
I was lucky to have Phil recommended to me and he’s helped me out three times so far this year - he’s now on speed dial! He’s friendly, reliable and makes what I’d seen as fairly complexed tasks seem effortlessly simple. Absolute gem, can’t recommend highly enough.
A very professional service.
Phil completed an EICR for me and I am very grateful for the promptness and professionalism he showed. He was very genuine and treated me and my home with respect. He was also able to keep the wifi going for me when the testing was taking place which was a huge help whilst I was working. Would highly recommend
We had a big project of moving our kitchen into a new room and changing the old kitchen room into a bedroom. We worked with Phil on this and he went beyond expectations, providing valuable advice and updating our old electrical installation, changing all the switches and sockets as additionally requested. I highly recommend, he is a nice person to work with and can provide valuable advice
we asked them to overlook the electricals in our new flat. The response and advice given were absolutely excellent.
We used Vital Phase for a small electrical job. The best thing I noticed was the quality of the wire fitting within a wall. This is a wire that will never be seen again yet the team neatly tacked it to the brickwork. The team didn't notice me watching so I think this is how they have been trained. This attention to detail was present throughout the job hence the well deserved five star rating.
Very professional, fairly priced and I am very happy with the work done. Highly recommended.
It is fantastic when you find people who are as professional and work with so much integrity as this company does. Very happy with the service and would 100% recommend
Phil was really helpful and spent a while with us trying to work out the fault that was leading to some of our downstairs lights not working. He also identified some other issues that need fixing but did not in any way upsell us. The invoice for the work was a very reasonable amount and the quote offered for the proposed works is also really reasonable. Would definitely recommend!
Phil provided a preliminary visual electrical survey of my property and generously shared some useful and practical insights in terms of approach and indicative costing, demonstrating his breadth in experience.
Phil at Vital Phase is a total gentleman! Super professional, efficient and accommodating to our businesses requirements with great knowledge of up to date and new tech to ensure we were making the best choices. Couldn't recommend highly enough to anyone (private or business) looking for fire safety solutions. Thank you so much for your assistance and we'll be in touch again for future projects. LBPC.
Phil came over to fix an electrical issue with the light switch. He was on time, very kind, friendly and efficient! He got the job done quickly and am very happy with that!
Phil, from Viral Phase, was a tremendous help to my husband and me in giving advice and help over some lighting issues. Now that these have been resolved we look forward to his installing more complicated outside security lights for us. He is a very pleasant man and an extremely efficient worker. I would highly recommend him.
Phil and team popped round to inspect an electrical issue. Although it was minor, they delivered a very professional service. Would recommend
Phil is reliable and trustworthy. I gave him the keys and left him to get on with the work. He went out of his way to ensure the property was compliant for EICR. He removed all headaches and worries, property is now safe and compliant. Wouldn’t trust another electrician
My husband and I had many overdue electrical issues in our flat that needed fixing such as replacing our hob which had never fully worked, replacing faulty spot lights in our hallway and making a plug point operational (which it had not been since we bought the flat 8 years prior!). Vital Phase were competitively priced and had good reviews so we decided to go with them. We were both very happy with the service we received and also were very happy to be accomodated so quickly. I would happily recommend Vital Phase's services to others.
Contacted Phil at Vital Phase regarding issues with swapping my existing light for a pendant in our new nursery after some concerns about the safety of the original way the ceiling rose had been wired. Phil was able to quickly diagnose what the issue was over email and then was able to find time to come round within the week to correct the original issue and fit the new pendant for a fair price. After having first used Vital Phase last year to fit a new electric hob and bring a dead plug point back to life I was more than happy to use them again and am very happy that I did! All in all would highly recommended.
Phil at Vital was extremely helpful and talked me through my electricit issue. Definitely recommend them
Very good experience with Phil. He is patient and knowledgeable.
I recently had the pleasure of working with Vital Phase for electrical and fire safety services, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. From start to finish, he demonstrated exceptional professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail. Vital Phase conducted a thorough inspection of our rental properties, identifying potential risks and providing clear, actionable recommendations. Phil’s deep knowledge of both electrical systems and fire safety protocols was evident, and he took the time to explain everything in a way that was easy to understand. Not only did Phil complete the necessary work efficiently, but he also ensured that everything was up to the highest safety standards. I now feel much more secure knowing that our property is protected, thanks to his diligent efforts. I highly recommend Phil to anyone in need of electrical or fire safety services. He is reliable, knowledgeable, and a true professional in every sense of the word. I will be calling on Vital Phase and Phil again for any future needs!
Contacted Phil at Vital Phase UK, for a quote on upgrading old plug sockets in my 1930s house. Phil provided a provisional quote via phone and also came to my home to provide a confident quote. Phil is clearly knowledgable and is happy to share insights based on what I want to do. It was evident that Phil wanted to be honest rather than up-sell. This wasn't just him saying so, he went out of his way to ensure I wouldn't spend any more money or cause any more disruption to my home than was necessary and even suggested workarounds and work that may not be required. Phil will be the first person I call with all my electrical needs as honesty goes a hell of a long way!!
Had a massive problem with our electrics late on a Friday afternoon (something was causing the main breaker to keep popping!). A neighbour had recently used Phil so got his number and rang to see if he would be able to do something. Pleasantly surprised when he arrived within thirty minutes and quite quickly worked out the cause of my problem + sorted it out. Very pleased with the service and his wonderful customer care, he waited at ours for over thirty minutes to ensure that his fix was working. Definitely worth considering should you want any electrical work carried out.
Phil and his apprentice were very professional, understood the problem at hand and solved in timely manner with minimum downtime. Will use again 100%. Thank you again!
Really great experience with Vital Phase UK. We had Phil visit us to replace a ceiling light fitting in the living room. Phil was prompt in responding to the request and was flexible around my availability. The electricity box and connections were checked by Phil prior to the work & feedback given, (something i had not done since moving in 3 years ago - thankfully no issues) the job was then done in great time - no mess, looks Fab! Really professional & would absolutely call back for our next job! Thanks Phil!
Phil came to sort out many electrical problems from needing new fuse board to making safe a socket and various other problems. He is very efficient and knowledgeable, arrives on time and has so far carried out the first stage of the work. He explains what he is doing and checks with me along the way. I’m happy with the work so far and am confident that the rest of the work will be equally top quality. He is neat and tidy and leaves no mess. Highly recommend him.
I used Vital Phases for the re-wiring on my property when I first acquired it. It was a full re-wire with the previous owners plugging the mains sockets off of the lighting! Phil and his team were excellent with their due diligence on the property, highlighting where to best place the sockets and ensuring everything was properly regulated. Thanks for the quick response, Quote and delivery Richard
Phil did some work at our house. What a nice bloke, punctual, tidy worker with minimal disruption, extremely knowledgable, offered advice and presented options when I had questions. Wouldnt hesitate to use again.
Amazing service. Phil came to install an additional fuse for our new oven, and we are very happy with the service provided. Phil is polite, professional, and clearly knowledgeable about his work. He took great care in ensuring everything was installed correctly, and made sure that he's happy with the result as well. He also pointed out another issue in our new flat that we were unaware of. Thanks to his keen eye and expertise, that problem has also been fixed, saving us potential trouble down the line. We are satisfied with the result and highly recommend Phil for his exceptional service. It's rare to find someone so committed to their work and customer satisfaction. A big thank you for a job well done!
Phil and his team at Vital Phase UK were great, very professional and also friendly and helpful. Our work was dealt with quickly and efficiently, Would definitely recommend Vital Phase.
