Your electrician, if they're on a scheme like NICEIC. They test the work, issue an Electrical Installation Certificate and notify Teignbridge District Council building control. Hiring someone who isn't registered means paying the council to inspect it, which costs far more.

Look them up on the NICEIC, NAPIT or ELECSA register using their name or postcode, not just the logo on a van. Ask for their registration number and a copy of their insurance. A good electrician will happily send both before you book.
