About

Rich Electrical is a good, honest electrical firm set up by Ed Rich, a born and bred North Londoner who has a genuine passion for electrics. In fact, Ed’s wife, daughter and son frequently get pretty sick of hearing about inductive loads, ohm’s law, conductor surface areas and earth fault loop impedances…

Ed, being the bright spark that he is, retrained in his mid-twenties and, unlike lots of people that call themselves “Electricians”, has done a full-length City and Guilds 2330 level 2 and 3 and 2382 17th Edition course, so is fully qualified and also backed up by the NICEIC’s Part P competent person scheme, a legal requirement for anyone doing any serious install in domestic premises.

Ed will treat you and your house with the utmost respect – the little things like explaining what he is doing and why in a clear way, trying to save you money by finding ways around your electrical problems and cleaning up thoroughly all make for a more pleasant tradesperson experience.

Ed was excellent to deal with throughout our project. He was always very responsive to calls and emails and his quality of work appears to be very good. Reliable and I would certainly use again.

I recently had a complete electrical installation in my house and I was worried about its safety as I found a number of faults left by the electrician/builder who did this work. I contacted Ed Rich to ask him to test the electrics. He was very sympathetic, said he would do it, asked for a photograph of my consumer unit and gave me a price based on this. He confirmed the date, arrived on time, set up his work station and worked quietly and efficiently testing the electrical system. When he was finished testing he showed me his report, explained the readings on it and explained that he had found a significant fault which needed to be rectified as it could could cause a fire. He said some live cables were lying loose under the floorboards. He advised me to tell my original electrician what he found and offer him the opportunity to rectify it. He handled this extremely diplomatically. The original electrician returned to test and rectify the work and he found but serious and potentially two faults, which he repaired. I phoned Ed in the presence of the original electrician to check the readings with him and he assured me the installation was now safe. He tidied up and left the house as he had found it. He is an experienced and well trained electrician, he was entirely open with me, charged me a reasonable price, and I felt I could trust him entirely. I will always engage him in the future and I will recommend him to family and friends.

Since my husband died I have found it difficult to manage things like changing lightbulbs, and when the light in the bathroom went out, I was unable to climb up to change the bulb. Fortunately I was able to turn to Ed as he has done work for us several times in the past, and I knew I could rely on him. He dropped by on his way home that evening and identified the problem, which was more than a burned out bulb. He suggested how we might get round the problem, and we arranged a time for the next week, but he then contacted me to say he could do the work today if it was convenient. Ed has done major work for us in the past but he was just as willing to undertake this small job, and that means a lot. I feel confident that he will do a good job in any situation, and his kindness makes him a special trader. I recommend him without any hesitation.

Pendant Light Installation

We were looking for an electrician to install a pendant light over our dining table and have it work from the wall switch, which previously controlled a set of LED down-lights. We asked that the down-lights be transferred to another circuit so that they remained functional. Ed's work was excellent and we are very happy with the result. It was very easy to discuss the job with him, and he took the time to understand what we wanted. He quoted an amount that we thought was very reasonable for the work and he had availability within a few days. On the day of the work, he and his apprentice arrived on time and the whole thing was done in under 90 mins, including clean-up afterwards. No hidden costs or charges either! Very happy with this result and impressed with Ed's work. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for an electrician in the west London area.

I needed an electrician in late January 2023 and did some research on the Trusted Traders site and other similar sites. I chose to contact Rich Electrical because their reviews were excellent and they were local to me. Since then Ed Rich has completed three jobs for me, all to replace and upgrade the lights in my kitchen and utility rooms. The jobs were all completed to my full satisfaction. Ed is personable, friendly and helpful, he turns up on time and is happy to explain what he is doing. For the last job he even went above and beyond the call of duty by researching the internet on my behalf to find an adaptor plate big enough for my light! I have no hesitation in highly recommending Ed - he is a consummate professional.

Ed did a small job for us but to an excellent standard. He will definitely be the first person we go to with any other jobs and would recommend him to everyone. In addition to the quality of work, Ed’s communication was excellent - responding quickly and planning the job in efficiently around bigger ones so we didn’t have to wait long. He is also the sort of person you would be happy to have in your home, trustworthy and friendly. The job was done to a great standard and the place looked spotless when he left too!

First Class Electrician

I chose Rich Electrical Ltd based on Ed Rich's numerous excellent reviews and I can confirm that they are all thoroughly and totally deserved. I really can't praise Ed highly enough. Ed is a first class electrician and a first class professional. I commissioned Ed to carry out a number of electrical jobs in my mother's property, including: installing a new electric shower, replacing an external light and installing a number of new and additional plug sockets, throughout the house. My mother and the rest of my family had not used a tradesperson for a very long time and so I needed someone who would put them at their ease and who could be completely trusted, in their home. Before the work began, Ed proved himself to be prompt and informative in his replies to my various queries and he was very flexible and understanding, when I added further jobs (even up to the day before the work started). Ed is an extremely likeable, friendly, kind, efficient and hardworking professional with excellent communication skills; a real pleasure to have around. Ed kept my family informed of his progress throughout the day and they were delighted with every single aspect of his work for them; in fact, they are already planning to ask Ed back to carry out additional work. I must add that Ed's work was very fairly priced and competitive. I thoroughly recommend Ed, as an electrician. What a lovely man!

Double sockets installed

This job was to install double electrical sockets in my elderly mother's Ruislip home. I found Ed through word of mouth and recommendation. The job of locating a potential source to run the cable from was potentially awkward but Ed identified a neat under the floorboard solution. He also made recommendations about electrical safety. He cleared up nicely and it was a fair price.
