Absolutely delighted with the professional and courteous service received every time I have used Ideal electrical. They are definitely my electricians of choice. When I asked them to quote for a couple of jobs I knew roughly how much I would expect to pay and was delighted when the price came in below my expectations. On the 2nd job they found a part that I already had and the final bill was cheaper than the quote. Friendly and professional and gave great advice. I have no hesitation in recommending them and giving them 5 *

Ideal Electrical replaced my old fuse board with and update board. They also carried out an electrical safety check. I was very happy with the work. They were fast, efficient and easy to deal with. I would highly recommend them.

I have used Ideal Electric Solutions to complete electrical work since early 2013. They have always proved reliable, completing the work to a high quality and charging a fair price. I'm happy recommending them.

Review Comments
We had new lights fitted into our dining room, and as Ideal Electrical are aware we were extremely unhappy with their work. They created a huge channel in the ceiling (not agreed, they were supposed to put the lighting in from the upstairs floor). This created a huge mess of plaster and dust which they neither tidied nor prepared for in advance by putting down a sheet. We found the communication extremely surly and unpleasant following the work and due to this I have scored them poorly and wouldn’t use again.

Thank you for leaving us a review.
I'm sorry that your experience with IES has not been a great one.
From the start IES quoted you to channel the ceiling but we used the wording ‘raggle’ on the quote which is a term used widely in the electrical industry and means channelling. We have now made a conscious effort to explain in detail the full requirement of any job to our customers.
We hope to work with you again in the future and wish you all the best.

This company rewired a tenanted house when it was occupied as the tenants did not want to vacate the property. it was explained to them that this would be a difficult project however they were prepared to accept some disruption as the property suited all their requirements. The whole job was undertaken on as thoroughly professional basis and when the tenants returned home in the evening everything was back in place and very clean and tidy. A very decent pleasant workforce who were always ready to adapt as necessary and they were very well supervised.

Exceptional service from IES. I have now used them several times with different engineers and every one of them has been corteus, reliable and friendly. I would not hesitate in giving them keys to my house if i wasn't in at the time. You can see why they have so many awards to their name. A great team off professionals from the guys in the office to the guys going round the city doing the work. Keep up the good work IES

Had an extension done and was on look out for someone to do some wiring etc for us. Quite a few people I know recommended ideal electrical solutions very highly and I checked them online and a lot of positive reviews online so I booked them.

Could not be any happier with the service, right from My first call to the office up to the visits from the staff. All very nice to work with and excellent value for money.

Highly recommend Ideal Electrical Solutions

Ideal Electrical Solutions came when my boiler pretty much 'blew up' and the emergency heating engineer advised I needed an electrician. IES were recommended and, when I explained the circumstance - that the thermostat had overheated and blown to the point of smoking, they came in less than two hours and checked/replaced the related sockets and wiring, making it safe for the heating engineer to replace the thermostat.

They were extremely helpful and efficient and spoke directly to the heating engineer about the work required. The electrician explained the difference in the wiring/socket he had used so I had no concerns at all and there was no mess left after the work was finished

The charge was very reasonable and I would have no hesitation in using IES again or recommending them to anyone else. They gave me complete peace of mind that things were done correctly and I wouldn't have an 'exploding' boiler again.
