What other electrical jobs do you want to see?

I like the fact you explain to a DIY'er like to a DIY'er. Just a wee pointer. When you show items in your videos, don't point them at the camera for a split second and also hold them steady, so we can see them and the branding pre-printed or embossed on these. Just to give you an example, I had to go frame by frame to see the Hager J803 juncton box detailing (in a different video) as you said the name a wee bit too fast to hear properly. I like where you cover the 'kit needed for the job'. I buy my tools off the back of such recommendations. Stuff I never thought I'd need but now do thanks to your superb video guides.

Very well explained. If it were me I would also put some sleeving over the old earth wires whilst I was about it.

Another very informative video. I have been looking for this specific one where you have to create a chase. I think the additional video on how to repair the wall is a 5 star tutorial in itself. I must say that the one thing that sets your tutorials apart are the added bonus of showing how to repair walls or ceilings after the work was done. Thank you so much. I'm a happy subscriber.

Loved the video, just watched out of curiosity as I've done this many times before. And I've learned something new. I didn't realise cable zones allowed horizontal placement of cables. My OCD would've got the better of me with the fact that there was no earth sheathing on that existing plug tho :)

mate that easi fill is such a nice product to work with, great video aswell thank you
-
Loving watching your videos, so clear and easy to follow. cheers mate.

Great video. I'm confident and competent at installing a few sockets and have been upgrading a few around my house. Some good nuggets of info in this video which will help me improve on my own process. Thanks

Quality content as usual π

This is so weird. Last week I followed your ceiling light with joists guide. This weekend I'm tackling plug sockets. Thanks bud great as always!

I used quickwire throughout my bungalow Refurb project

So glad I found your channel mate. Never actually tried DIY in the home, moving home and trying to do everything possible myself. Not incompetent, but very unconfident π!

Brilliant, great tutorial thanks

This video popped up just as I was considering adding another socket in my home. My job is going to be much harder though because itβs in a hallway and the nearest socket is in one of the bedrooms. Separated by different walls and door frames etc - if you made a video on more tricky situations like this that would be so useful! But thanks for this one, super informative. I didnβt know about ring circuits and radial circuits before

Thanks so much very informative and easy to follow video ππ
