Review Comments
Veteran electrician Paul Foley at East West Electrical installed a fan extractor in my small shower room, that was being refurbished, to prevent moisture building up on my newly painted walls.

His experience and skills quickly shone through, both with the more expensive humidity fan type he advised was necessary to avert the problem in my confined space, and his judgment of it’s necessary closer positioning to the shower than I would have liked, (wasn’t as aesthetically pleasing to the eye) to ensure my problem was solved. He was spot on with his judgments and we’ve had no moisture appear on our walls since, for which I’m very grateful to him.

He is also flexible, with a CAN-DO attitude, no task is too big or too small for him; he turned his hand to other tasks for me too , such as fitting an electric LED mirror and some studio lights.

He is a first class operator who was recommended to me as “trusted” by a friend and neighbour. I can vouch for this first hand, as I found he can be trusted to deliver excellent quality work with a superb attitude and was critically able to do so on time and to budget. Recent experiences on my showerroom project has taught me that tradesmen with this combination of skills and experience who - crucially - can be trusted, are a rare find.

Paul was an absolute pleasure to have working on my house, moving a plug points, installing cooker control point and servicing and signing off electrical work and smoke/fire alarms for building standards sign off.

from surveying the house, through quoting and doing the actual work he was always keeping me updated and priced the work very fairly. I’d recommend him to anyone and will be using him again soon for other things we want to do.

We have now had East West Electrical out twice, once to fit smoke alarms and the second time to change some light fittings. Very good communication, turned up as and when arranged and very polite and pleasant! We would not hesitate to recommend this company to others and will contact them whenever we need further help with our electrics.

Paul replaced lights above the worktop in the kitchen. He arrived when he said he would, carried out the work efficiently and left everything tidy.

This is the second time Paul has done work for us and we have recommended him to friends who were equally delighted with what he did for them.

Problems with heat sensor battery. Contacted Paul out of hours and he gave us good advice to temporarily solve the issue and arrived promptly the next day and quickly sorted out the problem. We have used East West Electricals many times in the past and always found the service to be excellent. He always deals with our lack of knowledge of electrical issues with patience and understanding.

Phoned Paul asking him to recommend replacing existing panel heaters in one of my properties, he suggested that I use Rointe heaters and explained the benfits of using them compared to other suppliers in the market. Quote was sent the following day and I told him to place the order, delivered within 3-5 days, will certainly use Paul again for any future projects.

Paul arrived as stated. Kitchen socket had been wired incorrectly and had blown causing other sockets/power to key white goods to stop working. Paul explained what had happened, very knowledgeable and made the work needed straight forward to do. Paul kept me updated as he completed the work. All works done successfully.

Paul installed a new timeswitch to my immersion heater circuit to resolve a problem resulting from a new meter installation. I've used his services before and he is always punctual, courteous and thoroughly professional.

Replacing bathroom spot lights with LED fire rated fittings & replacing garden flood light with LED security light.
Paul kept us informed as to arrival time. Always polite and honest as to work required with no 'surprises'.
Decent price quoted and excellent job.

Job was to run armoured cabling from mains board in house, under house and through garden to provide power to garden room. Paul came round and sized the job and worked through how best to do it with me. Quote was reasonable. East West did a professional job on the day and i am happy with it. Would use them again and recommend them.
