The local electricians Southsea keeps recommending.

Customers arrange the job with Richard directly — and it's his honesty, fair pricing and clear explanations that fill the Google reviews, earning a 4.9-star rating.
What sets Blackmore apart is being an OZEV-registered EV charger installer — a government-gated credential most local electricians don't hold.

01
Tell Richard the job
Call, text, WhatsApp or email Richard with what you need — an EV charger, a fault, an EICR certificate, a rewire. You deal with him directly, and he'll give you a fair price up front before any work starts.
02
Booked in and explained
We attend when we say we will and explain exactly what's recommended and why — the thing customers praise most. For EV chargers that includes a load assessment; for emergencies it means rapid-response fault-finding, often the same week.
03
Done, tested and certified
Every job is completed to current regulations, tidied up on completion, and — where required — tested and certified. EV installs include earthing, testing and certification; OZEV grant paperwork is handled for you.
