Foreman Electrical

Ian is an excellent electrician! Clearly knows his stuff & is very easy to talk to. He did the electrics for my extension as well as installing a new fuse board. Having had experience of a fair few electricians, Ian is by far the best at breaking down what he is doing & why & explaining everything in laymans terms. He also has a lot of very sensible & practical ideas - not just 'great' ideas which also happen to be the easiest / quickest for him! And he is punctual, efficient & tidy on site. Would wholeheartedly recommend

I contacted Ian after seeing reviews on this site and we were very pleased with his work. He advised and installed low energy recessed light fittings in our kitchen; connected our new cooker and suggested changing the bulky control switch to one flush with the wall; installed a power supply to our new extractor fan, solving an error by kitchen fitters by hiding wiring in a cupboard; disconnected an out-of-use electrical distribution board; explained and did necessary safety tests in relation to water and gas supplies; and provided installation certificates and info re the lighting. Ian was friendly, reliable and offered sound advice. He even recommended and contacted a plasterer when we ran into problems preparing the kitchen ceiling. He also reduced our final bill after connecting the cooker proved more straight forward than anticipated. If only everyone was as reliable and pleasant to deal with.

Ian rewired my kitchen as part of a complete refit. His explanations of the work to be done were clear and concise and the work was carried out to a high standard. He worked well with my kichen fitter and was available to come over at short notice if required. He kept to his cost estimate and I would not hesitate to reccomend him to anyone else.

I needed to change the downlights in my dining room. Ian researched the market and found lights which would fit the existing recesses thus avoiding expensive altrations to the ceiling. He obtained the lights on approval to ensure that they would fit and would be suitable. He also separately returned and fitted covers for the lights which originally had been considered unsuitable because of the low height of the ceiling. I found him to be a most pleasant man to deal with and felt that nothing would be too much trouble for him to satisfy his customer.
