Eli Patterson called and said he could be there a little early than scheduled, which was great. He was very courteous and friendly. He explained what was going on with the two outlets in question in easy to understand terms. Replaced the outlets. I was very pleased with the work. Foster Electric is my go to for electrical work. I have used them on a number of occasions.

Ian did an excellent job with the wiring problem for my doorbell camera. The wires from the old doorbell were too short to make a good connection but he managed to engineer a way to make it work. He also fixed a light in our master bedroom closet. He is polite and left his work areas spotless. I will use Foster Electric for any of my future needs.

Very pleased with all the electrical work completed from start to finish. They came out quickly to see and quote the job and were here just a couple of days later for installation. They were prompt, professional and helpful with everything. Highly recommend!
