Mr. Foster responded to my phone call as soon as I reached out to inquiry about his services. I wanted to know how much the cost would be and also if there was a service fee for checking out the work required. There was no service fee. I set a time for him to come out and he was there on schedule. Mr. Foster is the nicest gentleman who shows such professionalism and courtesy with his clients. He is very prompt. He took his time and inspected the work involved and quoted me a price that was exceptional. As a matter of fact, the price he provided was lower than what he quoted. He is my electrician for life! Foster Electrical deserves to be graded A+ with Angie's List. If you are looking for a professional with a reasonable price and provides respect and very courteous, choose Foster Electrical. You will not be disappointed!

I submitted a request for quote via the Angie's List website and Gary responded to me quickly. He was able to conveniently fit me into his schedule the same evening! He removed an old chandelier and hung my new heavy, cumbersome, replacement. Hindsight is 20/20, but I probably should've warned Gary that the chandelier was kinda heavy and that he may need additional assistance. Gary was a great sport about taking on this somewhat challenging task and completed it without a single gripe. He has a wonderful attitude and does good work, and I will most definitely call again when I need electrical work.

Thank you so much [Member Name Removed], I can honestly say that it was a pleasure to meet you. That was certainly an adventure to get that light up, and I won’t soon forget it. Have an amazing Christmas.

I called Foster Electrical Services at Noon today. Gary (electrician) was at my home by 2:30pm TODAY!! After we formally greeted each other, he came in ready to work. He took his time to trouble shoot the issue and when he actually found it, it was fixed in no time. I should add that the issue was a arcing wire under my home (in my crawl space that he went in), that could of cause us a major fire if it was not taken care of today. I am thankful that Gary fit me in his schedule today. Who knows what could of happened if he didn't....... Never the less, I would recommend Foster Electrical Services to any one and will be using them again for my electrical needs - Small business with a BIG heart!!!!!!! Thank you again Gary.......

I had a lot of work done. They provided excellent service. They kept me informed of everything that they were doing and walked me through everything to make sure I understood it all. This was the best experience that I have ever had with any contractor. They were stellar.
Description of Work: I had them rewire my shed, install fans and they rewired the new electrical box too, since I had a generator.
