Foreman Electrical

I used Mr Ian foreman 1st in June 2008 and again in Jan 2009. Both times he has been punctual, gave a reasonable quote, fast efficient work, cleans up, gives full info on the work being done without any irritation and most important he is very polite in manner.

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.

Very quickly diagnosed that a non-working immersion heater's problem was that the wiring at the wall switch was wrong i.e. brown & black wires needed to be swapped around. Did it quickly, pointed out a couple of other issues which should be fixed in future & left. Good manner, clearly knows what he's talking about. Very satisfied.

A failure of the fitting for a fluorescent light was diagnosed on the telephone and Ian arrived next day with the necessary replacement parts and did the repair in a friendly and efficient manner.

I chose Ian as a result of my search on Which Local for an electrician. He installed 3 new ring main circuits into my Garage for a special project. His work was timely, efficient, friendly and exceeded my expectations. Highly recommended.

I selected Ian from the Which Local to update the electrics in my flat. Ian was very friendly, helpful and honest and gave me some very useful advice. He saved me a lot of money because the electrics did not require as much renewing as I had thought. I would definitely recommend him.

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.

This was a rewire of our kitchen in autumn 2006 and the firm was recomended by the person fitting the kitchen. It was a very professional, efficient and friendly service and I would not hesitate to use them again.
