Foreman Electrical

Ian has carried out multiple jobs for us, including first and second fix electrics, replacing sockets and fitting lights. He liaised with our plasterer and kept us updated on timescales for completing the work. The work was carried out at a very high standard at a reasonable price and we would definitely use Ian again!

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 changed 7 socket face plates for me. He came to quote for the job and then confirmed the day he would be able to complete it. He gave me notice before he arrived and completed the work. We also had a nice chat! Would definitely recommend.

I am extremely happy to recommend Ian Foreman Electrical. I needed the lights in the bathroom replaced with updating lighting and the associated cabling tidied up. Ian visited prior to accepting the job to see what work was required and to provide a quotation. Ian asked what type of lights I was thinking of getting and gave his expert opinion. The work was completed in a few hours on 5 May 2023. I found Ian Foreman very professional but approachable.

Ian completed the electrical work required for our new outbuilding, which included upgrading outdated wiring on our home's main board. He was very pleasant to work with, showed up when he said he would, came up with creative solutions when problems arose, and ran wiring so neat and tidy it's a shame it's now hidden by plasterboard. I won't hesitate to call him for future jobs and recommend him to others needing an electrician.

I have used Ian on a number of occasions over the years. I continue to use him for his quick response times, honesty, good workmanship, flexibility and advice. He also happens to be friendly and approachable. This time he fitted a light in our new porch which has a wireless switch, that can also be used with a fob! Although the light was extremely fiddly to fit, Ian did it with good humour. The wireless switch means not being restricted to where the switch can go. He also converted our outside lights, which he installed a few years ago, to a wireless switch. If anyone asks me to recommend an electrician I give Ian's name and number and have always had positive feedback.

Contacted Ian in the morning on the basis of his good reviews on Which - wasn't disappointed. He was able to come out to my Mother-in-law's house same day and identified the problem quickly as a burnt out socket. He replaced the old one and made a point of showing me the damage. Very pleased with the speed and quality of service - will use Ian again in the future.

I've been using Ian for domestic electrical work for a few years now, he's extremely knowledgeable, skilled and gets the job done. I've recently also used him for some jobs at my workplace, with the same great service. I wouldn't hesitate to contact Ian for any electrical work, highly recommended.

Luckily we found Ian on Which Trusted traders. Although a small job, he was able to give us an appointment fairly quickly, and carry out the work at a reasonable price. Helpful and friendly in manner, we found him efficient ,reliable and professional, and will definitely use him again, and would be happy to recommend him.

I have employed Ian before so, when a smoke alarm problem popped up on Monday afternoon, a quick call to Ian followed by an email with the details sent him dashing into action. Ian viewed the situation, recommended alternatives and, by Wednesday had got all the parts and fixed the problem, all neat and tidy and no mess. He also pointed out some things that were needed to meet current electrical safety regulations and he sorted those as well. Ian explained everything and made sure the equipment instructions were handed over and noted. Fantastic. A top notch trader whom I can heartily recommend every time.

Ian completely rewired my newly purchased flat, fitted LED spotlights in the hall, bathroom and kitchen, fitted smoke and heat alarms, carbon monoxide alarm, bathroom fan, and electrical work in the newly fitted kitchen and worked well with the heating engineer and kitchen fitter. I wholeheartedly recommend him and he's very pleasant to have around.

We bought a house that needed a complete renovation. We knew that the electrics were in a mess so we engaged an electrician who only carries out electrical reports to assess the house. He left a long list of required changes and said that the house needed re-wiring and a new fuse box. We asked Ian to give a quote for the re-wire. Ian highlighted the same problems but said that some of the items required by the earlier electrician applied to commercial not domestic properties under current regulations. We thought that seemed encouraging and suggested he had good current knowledge. Ian is also friendly, has a positive attitude, inspires confidence and explains things in an understandable way. He carried out all the work required and according to timetable and was generally helpful and thorough. We discussed where new light fittings, sockets and switches should go and we have found that all his suggestions were good and we now have light switches where they are more useful. Whilst Ian was working on the electrics we also had a plumber who was installing the new bathroom so they had to work together around the electrics. The plumber commented to me (sounding impressed) that ‘Ian does things by the book doesn’t he’. I heard that the plumber later asked Ian to carry out re-wiring at his own house, so I thought that was another vote of confidence. We have since had Ian back for some other electrical work and we will be happy to use him in the future.
