Foreman Electrical

Ian Foreman has carried out a range of medium and small jobs at our house over a number of years. All the work has been good. He has been reliable throughout. He is also a cheerful presence while in the house. We go to Ian as our first choice for any electrical work.

I contacted this trader along with 2 others on Weds 22 Feb 23 by email in the morning. The other 2 replied in the evening and I have yet to receive a reply which is disappointing both for them and Which? Trusted Traders

I contacted Foreman electrical and Ian came at 9am the next day. He identified the issue ( a burnt out plug) and resolved the issue speedily. Ian was kind, understanding and explained everything he was doing. I would definitely recommend him. Thank you Ian.

I don't think you'll find a better electrician than Ian. He's polite, reliable, knowledgeable and good value. He completely rewired my flat, and the new lighting has transformed the place. Highly recommended.

Ian installed a ceiling rose which was tricky due to there being 3 wires from what was previously a ceiling fan fitting. I needed it done fairly quickly due to my house move. Ian turned up at the time he said he would, explained the complexities of switched live wires & completed the work very efficiently. I wish I had found Ian years ago but I'm now moving out of the area.

I booked Ian based on reading a recommendation from Which, and I am highly delighted I did. I needed an electrician to switch off some electrics whilst I was in the middle of decorating. He arrived the next day, brought with him the items I needed to purchase and even offered to teach me how to change a light fitting for the future. He was friendly, efficient and thorough. I couldn’t fault his service and he was excellent value for money. Do not hesitate to use. Highly recommended.

Ian arrived on time and provided a clear estimate. He came to carry out the work, again on time, which in my experience doesn't always happen. He finished the work to a high standard and also gave some very useful advice on energy use. Ian cleared up afterwards and took away all the packaging and rubbish. He was pleasant and polite and the bill matched the estimate. I was very pleased with the result and I shall certainly call on him again when the need arises. After using some very poor electricians in the past I am relieved to have found Ian.

We contacted Ian following a recommendation by a previous customer. Ian replaced our fuse board to provide RCBOs and a surge protection device and also replaced metal light switches and fittings with plastic ones throughout the house. he was very thorough and professional and pleasant to deal with. He explained what he was doing and kept us informed throughout. The work was done to schedule and to budget. I would use Ian again for any electrical work.

I first contacted Ian to ask for a quote on a few jobs around the house (repairing sockets, adding new sockets, rewiring lights, removing an electric heater) - he was extremely helpful, giving me lots of honest advice which meant that he actually talked me out of doing several jobs (and therefore himself out of some of the work!) since it made more sense to do these at the same time as we would plan to redecorate. He then came round soon after to carry out the work, and throughout he was both efficient and very helpful with advice on other issues. When he uncovered some particularly unusual wiring issues, he also did a brilliant job of working out what was causing problems each time and solving this, explaining as he went, and making everything safe and to high quality standards. All the time he was very friendly and personable, and I will certainly be in touch with him next time I need any electrical work done. On top of all of that, he was very reasonably priced and was always keen to work out the most cost-efficient way that he could cover all of the work I wanted done. I have already been recommending him to friends nearby, and wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in the Ruislip area!
