I work in the property management industry, and we have been using Ideal Electrical as one of our preferred contractors since I started with the company.
They carry out both annual electrical safety checks on our managed properties, as well as everyday repairs in a timely and professional manner. The work these guys have done for us has always been of a high standard, with minimal disruption caused. Any relating documentation always arrives promptly after works have been completed.
If you're looking for an electrical company that are reliable and responsive, then I would definetly recommend Ideal Electrical.

I have used Mark and his team for many years now on multiple properties and they have taken care of a wide range of jobs from small £50 jobs to £1000's repairs and full property renovations.
Our tenants and landlords comment on how professional, friendly and efficient they are, and they have a very high fix rate for treatments.
Thank you for the continued high level of service.
Thanks Again,

I was having an extension built and used IES for the electrical work. I was very happy with the price and the workmanship was of a very high quality. The guys that carried out the job were very professional and courteous i can’t recommend these guys enough.

Used them before and will always use them when needed. The work‘s always done professionally with no hassle on the phone or with the electricians in my flat who always leave the place tidy. Faultless every time

IES were part of a large team working for a tier 2 contractor completing major electrical works on one of Edinburgh Universities new research facilities over a 12 month period.
Their scope of works included the following;
1) small power and lighting/lighting controls containment, wiring & final fix
2) dado trunking installation
3) underfloor busbar and floorbox Installation
4) Distribution board termination
5) Electrical testing
6) PAT testing
7) Producing electrical test certification and “as installed” drawings
Their team were very professional, punctual and accommodating to the clients requirements. The installation was completed on time and achieved the required quality standards, whilst utilising a BIM system to raise, monitor and close any issues arising.
IES produced weekly plans extracted directly from the contract programme to efficiently monitor and direct works whilst attending SIC meetings to highlight any issues preventing them from progressing as planned
I would highly recommend this electrical contractor and will definitely use them in the future

I got the guys to do a lot of work for me when I was selling my flat. I had previously been let down by another company who had arranged to come and have me excuses twice for two no shows.
Ideal were polite and tidy workers, arrived on time and got the work done. The main thing for me was being there when they said they would as I don't live in Edinburgh and driving through twice to be let down was a pain in the backside.
I was happy with price, it was under what I had budgeted.
They also take credit card payments which was really handy as the other mob were demanding cash as they couldn't take cards.
If I still loved in Edinburgh I would happily use them again.
Thank you for sorting things out for me.

We called upon the services of Ideal Electrical Solutions for a project we were working on in Edinburgh tram depot. This project involved 66x double socket all wired up within close vicinity of one another. A time consuming job carried out faultlessly.
We would be delighted to work alongside ideal electrical solutions for future projects.
Thanks for the great job guys.

Mark and the team are very reliable and informative and despite being very busy always make the effort to fit ab appointment in. I rent a flat in edinburgh and the guys at ies advised me what I need to do to make the property ready to rent and carried out the works promptly and for a reasonable cost.

When I approached ideal Electrical Solutions for a rewire project they could not have been more helpful. I really didn’t know where to start but I knew I needed the job done. Their advice was excellent and when the project started they were available at every step of the way to work alongside me and had no issue when my wife changed her mind about things.

We had smoke and heat detectors installed in two properties we have. The company did a site visit. Gave an estimate which we were happy with. Agreed a date and time. They arrived when they said they would. Workmen were efficient and cleaned up after them.
The company were also involved in the renovating of my daughters small flat. They took the pressure off me, by being the main liaison point for the other trades involved.
