My husband and I have been doing business with Foster Electrical for the last 4 years. We love Gary's demeanor and professionalism! He is always punctual with his appointments. Very thorough and thoughtful. He works with you every step of the way. If cloning was legit, I'd request a copious amount of Gary's to service the MD Dc and VA area ? Keep up the good work. Anyone who selects Foster Electrical will not be disappointed!

I love Gary Foster! I would hire him again and again. He has come out and done work for us twice now. He is very honest and will give you an estimate of how much it costs. Both times it actually cost less than what we said it might be. Very cordial and professional.

Very responsive - got an appointment quickly and showed up on time. Did good work at a fair price, and gave me some tips to avoid wasting money on a few items we were considering. Will definitely use again.

We were very pleased with Foster Electrical Services. They stopped by to check out the breaker box, ordered replacement parts, and had the new parts installed quickly.

We had a plumber in to install a new dishwasher, and once the old one was out, we quickly realized that we needed a new plug for the new one. We called Foster, and 20 minutes (possibly less) later, he was at our home and installing the new plug. Excellent service!

When I contacted Mr. Foster and described the work that I needed done he asked me to snap a picture of the circuit breaker and send it to him so he would know which type I needed. He brought the correct breaker and quickly installed it in the electrical panel. He checked the voltage being pulled by the heat pump and found it was within expected limits.

Mr. Foster provided an estimate through email, and before he started since the wires were in more of a mess then could be described over email, but only a $100 additional which was lower than other estimates. Will definitely use him again for additional work.

Gary explained the causes of the problem and gave suggestions on how to maintain good performance of the switches. He even did a demonstration of how to use the outdoor front door light that I do not need to read the manual. Efficient and on time too.

Excellent service and work done in a very professional manner. Gary rewired the entire panel and replaced most of the breakers. He deciphered and made sense of the mass of wires that had accumulated over 50+ years. When he was finished, the wiring was so neat that it looked like a large printed circuit, so neat and orderly had he reconfigured it. The job was done in a timely manner and the cost seemed very fair. I would recommend Gary to anyone who requires reliable and professional electrical services.

Even though it was more complicated than I expected it went very well (my lack of knowledge). They supplied all of the required materials. I have scheduled additional services.

Great! Gary did a good job of relocating the junction box and problem solving to work around several obstacles to help locate the new fixture in an aesthetically pleasing manner. Hard worker, very knowledgeable, reasonable pricing, even made sure to clean his fingerprints off the new fixtures once hung! Definitely recommend and will be using him again.

Service was great. All of the work was done in less than 2 hours. He installed the light fixtures with ease and removed the old microwave and replaced with a hood fan wonderfully. I am so happy that I have found a great electrician and the cost is very reasonable.Will definitely use again in the future.

Gary is excellent, professional and willing to explain everything he is doing. He came out to help diagnose and fix damage that Verizon caused to a buried electrical line when burying a new fiber. We were able to locate the damage and he fixed the problem. I felt that Gary was honest and trustworthy and would hire him again.
