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 has done a number of little things around the house for us, but recently he replaced our out-dated fuse board. The job was done quickly and competently, with no mess and as little disruption as possible. Everything was tested and now we feel secure that our wiring is reliable. Reasonable cost, and I will certainly use him again, for small and large jobs. Highly recommended.

I employed Ed on the excellent recommendations made on Which by previous reviewers and I was not disappointed with my decision. Ed arrived promptly at the appointed date and time and carried out the work of installation of submain for my oven and microwave. He also fitted my new microwave. We were very pleased with his work and his willingness to understand our requirements. He was professional, competent and very friendly. I have no hesitation to recommend ED.

I would highly recommend Ed Rich after the fantastic work he provided for our project. Ed personally oversaw the complete overhaul of the electrical system in our dated 1960’s town-house as part of a complex refurbishment project during 2017 which included ‘gutting’, re-planning and modernisation of the whole interior. Ed coordinated with client, main contractor, other subcontractors and architect in a professional manner. As an architect, I was extremely impressed at Ed’s attention to detail, continuous helpful advice which enabled us to achieve the design we intended despite the many obstacles we faced, and of course Ed’s care in reading through our project drawings. Ed truly had a ‘can-do’ attitude despite the manifold design challenges we had! The work Ed carried out for our project was: >1st fix stage (perseverance), chasing for cabling and back-boxes >New electrical system, distribution board, electrical outlets >New lighting system, some awesome LED strip lights, studio style track-lights (most on dimmers), spotlights >Interlinked wired fire alarms >Wiring and outlets for phone, network, television and cable >Power and fan control wiring for a whole-house mechanical ventilation system >Electrical wiring for kitchen appliances, boiler >Neat & careful workmanship setting out and installation. Outlets, switches & lights were all evenly spaced and orthogonal. Where track lights and LED profiles had to be cut to length on site, this was done with the utmost precision

Ed was very punctual in coming to assess the work required and providing the quotation. Turned up on the date and time agreed. Speed and Quality of workmanship was very good. Left with all the items replaced to dispose and the kitchen was left in very clean condition. It was replacing a kitchen extractor fan. Can highly recommend him.

Ed has done work for me previously. The current job is relatively small but Ed responded quickly and professionally. I didn't have a solution in mind but he was able to advise on the best (cost effective) solution and to do it quickly. I should definitely recommend him and will use him again as first choice for large and small electrical jobs.

I had struggled to find a contractor to undertake this work, and on advice from a friend tried Which? Trusted Traders. I selected Rich Electrical based on the reviews and have not regretted my decision. Ed turned up when he said he would, kept in contact and I am delighted with the job which was done in excellent time and as far as I am concerned was good value for money for the amount of work involved. A job on this scale in what was an occupied property is a daunting prospect, but Ed and his team made it so much easier. Highly recommended.

The job was to install some lighting (indoors and out). Ed replied promptly to my initial enquiry, arrived on time and throughout was friendly and polite. Ed always explains what he's doing and why and happily answers any questions. We're really pleased with the work and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ed to others. We will always try and get him in for any future work.

The job was to run power down to our new shed/office plus other electrical work around the house. Ed was superb in all respects; reliable, tidy, professional, fairly priced and on top of that, a really friendly guy. Would not hesitate to use him again. Definitely a trusted trader.

I was encouraged by other people's reviews here on Which? Trusted Traders and emailed Ed Rich about installing sockets in a new garden building. He made a detailed site visit, listened to our ideas and needs and quickly sent in an email quotation. The resulting work was completed on time and finished to a very high standard. Ed is a personable and clearly a knowledgeable contractor.
