Highlights

Ian has been an absolute gem! A very pleasant demeanour and a practical, considerate way of dealing with people. He's helped with a range of electrical issues and has been quick to find practical and effective solutions. Very fair pricing also. Can't recommend him highly enough!

Customer in Greater LondonWhich? Trusted Traders5.0 rating

He was very professional, punctual, arrived on time. He was very efficient and clean and tidied up his work and left no mess. The work went very smoothly and no complications with the work. Changed 3 smoke alarms and 3 dimmable switches. I would recommend to anyone and would hire again if any work comes up in the future. Also very good with pets.

Customer in HertfordshireWhich? Trusted Traders5.0 rating

I first came across Ian via Which? almost 20 years ago and he is still my preferred supplier. The recent job he did for me is an example. Quick response, efficient service, friendly approach, reasonably priced. You can't ask for more than that- thank you Ian.

Called Ian with a socket problem he called back within two hours I explained the problem and he went through a few scenarios and it was decided that I could sort the problem myself which I did so he sorted the problem over the phone so he did not charge a call-out fee and left me a happy customer so I would definitely use him again and would recommend him to anyone who needs a electrician very honest and professional great service

We are delighted to have found Ian through Trusted Traders. He has fixed two separate issues for us over the past two weeks including repairing a circuit and fitting a new security light outside. He is prompt and dependable, communicates quickly and is a really lovely person. He made great suggestions and his charges are very reasonable. He clearly knows what he is doing and he will be our first point of call for any electrical needs in future. Thank you Ian!

I had a faulty lighting problem which Ian attended at the agreed time and carried out a full check. Ian eventually located a faulty wire within the walls which was shorting and was able to resolve the problem without damaging the walls. Ian was amiable, very professional and explained everything clearly. I have no hesitation in recommending Ian for any electrical issues.

Ian has carried out electrical work for me for some 5 years now. Recently he replaced my bathroom fan but during Covid he carried out a complete re-wiring of my house just before I moved in, so complying fully with all Covid regulations. He has always worked to the highest standards, polite and friendly, and, provided detailed quotes in advance of any work. Suffice to say that I would highly recommend his work

I called Ian to ask if he would look at an outside with a view to replacing it. He called later to say he was in the area and asked if it was convenient to drop by and take a look. He was able to advise me and very quickly got the light fitting I wanted and fixed it. His work was efficient and clean, and he was polite and helpful. I have no hesitation in recommending him.

I found Ian through Age UK and Which?. We had a problem with some of the lights at our property. Ian came round and carried out a fault finding on the lighting circuit, charged the RCBO in the fuse board and sorted the problem. He seemed to know exactly what was wrong and explained this to us. Ian is very honest, professional, and friendly. He even asked if the lights were working after he left. It was such a pleasure dealing with Ian. I would highly recommend him.

We found Ian through Which Trusted Traders. Ian installed new LED lights in our kitchen and bathroom and replaced out of date smoke and carbon monoxide alarms. This was the second piece of work Ian completed for us having installed a new fuse box earlier this year. Ian is professional, very knowledgeable, clean and tidy and competitively priced. We would not hesitate to recommend Ian to local friends.

Ian has been our go-to electrician for over 20 years now and works for us and our daughter in London. We appreciate his clear and precise evaluation of what we want to be done and frequently suggests lower cost alternatives with better outcomes. We have a great deal on confidence in Ian and would unhesitatingly recommend him to anyone wanting domestic electrical work carried out. His pricing is very reasonable and transparent such that we never ask for an estimate beforehand and have never had any reason to regret that.

Ian was very thorough, professional and friendly. He met with me several times before beginning work to make sure I understood the process and that we were on the same page with what was had to be done. He rewired my ground floor flat, working around my existing furniture and clutter as it was not possible to clear everything from the flat and moving things and returning them as he progressed, He even made friends with my cat! Ian regularly WhatsApped me with questions, progress reports and photos while I was at work so I knew what to expect when I came home each day. Ian also added sensor operated lights in the shared hallway as an additional job. I would not hesitate to recommend or use him again.

We first asked Ian to do some electrical work in our house about 12 years ago. We found him very capable and helpful as well as a pleasant and cheerful presence in the house. We also found his charges to be reasonable. On the basis of that initial experience, whenever we have subsequently wanted electrical work at our house, we have always gone to Ian and have been very satisfied with that arrangement.

Ian was recommended via a work colleague for completing work to a high standard and charging competitive rates. We had a socket in a bedroom that was not in use. Ian came round to investigate and gave a clear breakdown of the work that needed to be completed and the costs involved. Whilst completing the job, Ian spotted another issue with our electrical board and after checking with us, he completed that work too. Ian is professional and friendly, and I would not hesitate to recommend or use him again.

I asked Ian to change 2 old fluorescent tube fittings in the kitchen and loft. This was done quickly and efficiently. He is friendly, polite and was helpful with my other queries, I would have no hesitation using him again.

I presented Ian with a tricky problem. An intermittent fault that was tripping a fuse. A previous electrician had failed to find the cause but Ian eventually tracked it down to some wires in a conduit. He then came up with an innovative solution that avoided any damage to the walls. Everything was done quickly and cleanly and at a sensible price.

What to check before you hire

Worth checking yourself
Always confirm credentials and quotes with the business directly before hiring.
Verify at the sourceCheck them yourself

Electrical work in homes in England & Wales should be done by a registered competent person who can self-certify it meets the Part P safety rules. Check they're on the official register.

Check the electrical register
In England and Wales, notifiable electrical work (new circuits, a consumer unit, anything in a bathroom or kitchen) must by law be signed off under Part P of the Building Regulations. Confirm they will handle that.
Prefer an electrician registered with a government-approved competent-person scheme (NICEIC, NAPIT or ELECSA) so they can self-certify the work meets the wiring regulations.
Insist on the Electrical Installation Certificate (or Minor Works Certificate) when the job is done. It is your proof the work is safe and compliant, and you will need it if you ever sell.
