Smoke alarm replacement and inter linked heat alarm installed, compliant with new Scottish regulations. Quality wireless set up from leading manufacturer included in quote at a reasonable price. Alarms tested after completion. I would recommend this company and will use their service again. The company's communication is excellent from start to finish, and online payment is easy and stress free

I had the switch for my shower fixed, the guy informed me that the wiring was not safe and fixed the problem. He was very professional and polite and cleaned up any mess that was left, I was very happy with the job he did I would recommend Ideal Electrical Solutions very highly.

Two dimmer switches replaced with normal switches, pendant fitting checked a repaired, and my smoke alarm tested. The electrician who visited the property was friendly professional and helpful. I must add that the whole experience from initial contact to completion of work and payment was a delight. Ideal Electrical Solutions communication is the best I have come across from any trade company I have dealt with in the past, from the booking of the appointment online, reminder emails, invoice and receipt and the ability to make easy payments on a computer system they are using that makes it clear at every stage. Very impressed, and I will only be using this company for electrical work in the future

Smoke and heat alarms replaced non compliant alarms in my house. New alarms now compliant with Scottish Government legislation.
I had power points put into my garage.
Work completed efficiently and I'm very pleased with it.

I used Ideal Electrical Solutions for major electrical work on a large extension as well as various other jobs, including fitting ceiling lights, connecting electric heaters, installing a new timer for an immersion tank. They are responsive, reliable and efficient. I would definitely recommend them.

Electrical (EICR) and fire certificate. Responded to request for work with a quote and availability almost immediately on multiple occasions. Electricians always arrived on time and when expected and carried out their work professionally and efficiently.

The work was being certified for a building warrant and when the council raised issues Mark, the managing director stepped in and clarified and resolved the issues raised directly and promptly without being asked. It was greatly appreciated and would recommend the business as friendly and reliable.

Ideal called me back as soon as I got in touch, talked through my requirements and provided a detailed quote. They arrived when they said they would and got to work promptly and efficiently. I had a number of jobs: from light fittings through to replacement heaters. The electrician worked really quickly and did it all in one morning with minimum disruption. He was very polite and friendly and wore a mask throughout. Costs were very reasonable and I would definitely use them again.

Replaced a fuse board with a circuit board. Everything was straightforward from setting up the appointment to the final payment. They arrived slightly early and finished earlier than I expected.

I had a significant problem with my old fuseboard and damaged (burnt) wires which needed urgent attention. I used the Trusted Trader website and selected IES as the most suitable company. They sent me a no-obligation quote and gave me time to make up my mind. All correspondence was easy and simple (by email). Once I agreed to the quote, I only had to wait one week for the job to be done. The electrician, Calum, arrived at my property exactly as arranged and, after a brief discussion, he proceeded to do the work to a very professional standard. The major job was to change my old, outdated fuseboard to a new, safe and modern one, which I now have. There was minimal mess, and Calum even offered to sweep up himself the little mess that there was, which is another indicator of good training and customer service. The work was done to a very high and professional standard. My property is much safer now and I have a EICR for my records. Many thanks to Calum and Mark at IES.

IES have carried out various works at my address over the past 3 years and their level of service has always been fantastic and professional. They are an approachable company who will work to fulfil your electrical installation and adaptation requirements. Their engineers are efficient at carrying out any work necessary and communicate throughout the process to ensure the optimal end result. Highly recommended!

We had an external socket fitted to run our pond pump. There was a good level of expertise and I'm happy with the job. It was sometimes a bit hard to get through on the phone, had to ring twice a couple of times before they picked up. But would be happy to recommend.

A new single electric oven installed, and a replacement set of smoke/heat alarms. This is a very good firm to deal with. Clear, friendly advice from the office staff, and very efficient work done by the electrician.
