Hi Ian,
 
Thank you once again for coming at short notice and out of hours to fix the overflow pipe. You were exactly the kind of plumber I was hoping for - helpful, prompt and friendly.
 
You shall be hearing from me in the near future to have a look at my temperamental cistern and to have a boiler check! I would be happy to recommend you to my friends in future.
 
Thanks again,
 
Sarah

Dear Ian 

Just a short note to say how pleased we were with the way you fixed our fridge freezer yesterday. Not only did you come out on the day we contacted you (the day before a bank holiday weekend!) but you immediately diagnosed what the problem was, ordered the parts to be couriered down the next working day and left us with at least the freezer working. Then, when the parts arrived on time, you contacted us, came round the same day and finished the job. The whole thing was so quick and painless that we can’t thank you enough. We would certainly recommend you to anyone.
A very big thank you for an all round excellent service.

Hi Ian

I just wanted to say thank you for responding to my washing machine disaster so quickly! I think you were fixing it within 2 hours of me calling you! I find it impossible to find good people to help with domestic appliances, plumbing etc and i am just so delighted that you were recommended to me and that you were able to deal with the problem so quickly and efficiently. I'll keep your card for inevitable future needs!

Thanks again

 Dear Mr. Foster, I am very happy to write out my happiness with how you carried out the recent work. More formally, I have been very impressed with the professionalism shown by Ian Foster when he reently carried out work at my London flat. It was very reassuring when, firstly, he correctly confirmed his visits to the property and he was punctual to a fault. Secondly and just as important, Ian Foster carried out the work with correct knowledge and attention. He left the site clean and tidy with everything fully working.  His details are now firmly included in my address book.  With best wishes, Yours sincerely, David Laws

Thank you for a job well done, Ian.  What a pleasant surprise it was to meet a young man who knew not only how to install a Surestop switch professionally, but carried the work out in a very friendly manner, and also arrived on time!

 As an elderly widow I have, unfortunately, met a few unscrupulous and dishonest so-called tradesmen during the past few years.  Ian, you have restored my faith in human nature and for that I am really grateful.  

I also won't hesitate to recommend you to family and friends and will contact you again, if ever I need your services.

 Many thanks again and good luck for the future.  You are a credit to your family and your chosen profession. 

Regards

 

Mrs C McGrath

Hi Ian, 
(Sorry for the slow response, crazy, crazy week!). We would just like to say a very big thank you for the work you did replacing our combi boiler.You did an excellent job, professional, on time, on budget (considerable less than we expected - thank you again) and as always were very friendly. As you know, we first got in contact with you some months ago when we needed to get our temperamental heating system sorted before our baby was born.This required a good few visits, and I dont think we once had to wait more than one day for you to visit. You arrived a plumber, and left a friend! 

Best Regards,Dave & Emma Daniels

Hi Ian, 
Just wanted to write to you to say thank you for coming round to show us how to fill up the boiler,we haven't had any problems since.
 We got the best response from any company we contacted from Ian Foster,he gave us a full breakdown of costs for several boilers and the fitting of them.Once confirmed an appointment was made very quickly as my wife was heavily pregnant at the time.He turned up on time,did the job,cleaned up and took the boiler way,he also didn't drink to much tea!When a problem raised ,they came the next morning and resolved the issue straight way,charge free.I was recommended  Ian by a work colleagues and we now recommend him to any one with boiler problems.

Hi Ian,
 
Just a quick note to thanks for such a great service my Wife and I received from you and for fixing our boiler. Not sure exactly what you did to the radiator in the toilet which hasn't been working for the last 2 and a half years but that came on also after you left which is great! We can now sit in comfort!! We will definitely recommend you in the future.
 
Many Thanks,

Ian, it's Cyril. You are the star. Heating is working well and radiators do not need to be bled any more. The other couldn't do that. Many Thanks mate. Cyril.

The following are comments about me from which members from the which local website
Posted by Ianfidel; Used on 12 March 2010
After contacting Ian he made an appointment the next day to look at a faulty basin tap. For the replacement he suggested visiting a local supplier's  website. After selecting a new tap online I just emailed him the reference number. He brought the newly purchased tap over later that afternoon, and fitted it a lot more professionally than the previous plumber had. I paid by credit card on his wireless gizmo - the first time I've ever paid a tradesperson in this fashion! An excellent and responsive service. I would definitely use Ian again.

Relied on an existing recommendation in Which Local and was not disappointed. I have used his services twice now. He altered some pipe work in order to accommodate a new built in washing machine and he changed a sink and shower waste. On both occasions he turned up when he said he would, was open in advance about his charges (which were reasonable) and did a very professional job. I would thoroughly recommend and would certainly use him again.
