SHERWOOD CONSTRUCTION & ELECTRIC

Very well. Solved a variety of problems and had good advice.

Great, he and assistant did a top notch job, very professional, very personable, finally a contractor that is on time! He did exactly what he said he would. Will hire him from now on!

Dave and his crew have completed several jobs for me during the renovation of my home. He is honest professional who truly cares about his customers and quality of his work. Not only wood I highly recommend them, but am currently working with to plan a extensive addition to my home.

David was very professional, courteous and easy to work with. He was busy, but managed to arrange his schedule to meet my project timeline. He even helped me out by adjusting a lock on a sliding glass door that wasn't latching properly at no charge. I would definitely use David again.

I have known Dave Norris for 25 years. His son and business partner Brian was a young boy back then! I have had several projects done by Sherwood Construction. In 2010 they did a kitchen and family room remodel. The quality was top notch. Everyone who sees the work is impressed by the form and function of our space. Thinking back to this project, I remember being particularly impressed by the way that the entire crew cleaned the worksite at the end of each day. There was never a pile of dirt anywhere, and all their tools were safely put away. It made living in the house during construction quite bearable. Recently, we had an issue with our electrical system. I have a home warranty, so I called them first. I was very disappointed. There was no way I would let that contractor touch my house. I called Dave Norris, and he carved out the time to take care of us. It was very detailed in that we needed to upgrade our electrical panel from 125 Amps to 200 Amps. Once the city gave us the permit, Dave got started and finished within 24 hours, including the city inspection. Once again, a great job, and a clean jobsite. We have no problems with circuit breakers now! I would never hesitate to call Sherwood for any project at my home, and I highly recommend them to anyone who needs electrical or general remodeling work.

We had a squirrel chew through the ground wire outside our house which caused a whole-house power outage. The City of Riverside electrician was able to come out within the hour and got most things up and running, but we still didn't have hot water, and a ceiling fan, computer, television and lamp didn't work in my office. Dave was initially responsive, and came out the next day. He was very nice and professional. He determined that the outlet for the hot water heater blew out because of the surge, and replaced it. Unfortunately, the surge also destroyed the water heater, so we had to have that replaced as well. But he didn't have time to do anything in my office that day, and requested I call to set up an additional appointment, which I didn't have a problem with. My husband was able to determine that the outlets were defective, but the surge suppressors had done their job, and the computer and television still worked when he plugged them into heavy duty extension cords which he plugged in downstairs. So I didn't mind waiting a reasonable amount of time to have these items fixed. But unfortunately, trying to reach Dave in order to set up another appointment was extremely difficult. We always got voice mail, no matter what time of the day we called. And Dave just didn't return our calls. I believe we called five times over the course of the next week. He had told us his son worked with him, but was out of town on another job. But that doesn't account for poor office skills. Even if he's not available, he should at least return phone calls. After a week, we gave up and contacted another electrician.

Extremely professional and they do quality work. I almost do not want to tell people how good they are, because they may take them away from me. I have proud of all the work they have done for me and will use them many times in the future.

Went very well- done in less time than I thought it would. David is very professional and does very clean work

I didnt hire due to our conflicting schedules but i will contact him for future jobs.

David from Sherwood gave courtesy call before coming on the night before.david then called again on the way to our house giving the approximate time he wood arrive.david was very nice and professional and installed the door in the exact time he would say he would come plebe the job.great job would highly recommend this company for any job. We will be using him again for more work in the future.

Very responsive, called back, made appointment, arrived on time, provided quote when he said he would. I ended up going with another contractor based on price alone but I would definitely call again.

Brian, the owners son & also a licensed electrician, had to remove the old and dangerous wiring and rewire about 50% the house. There was plaster repair as well as paint touch-up which was completed promptly. During the course of the work Brian saw a few things that also should be done and he was proactive in bring them up while there and offering to do them either now or at a later time. Very easy to work with and the work is clean at the end of each day. At the end of the job, the site was clean and there were phone calls to keep us in the loop as we do not live in the house. We can now lease the house without concern that there are electrical issues for the tenants. We will use them again if the situation were to present itself.

These services were performed on 3 separate occasions. Dave Norris, the owner, is a true professional. The results always exceeded my expectations. Great communications and flexible with my time schedule. Dave takes care of every minute detail to make sure I never have a problem again, always using the best parts. He also explains to me what he is doing and makes suggestions for improvements. I know the work he does is always code or better. I'm in the process of other projects with Dave including replacing windows and painting among a few. Dave Norris can do it all with his contractors license and electrical license. It's nice to work with the same guy for all your needs.

SHERWOOD CONSTRUCTION & ELECTRIC was excellent. He was very professional, knowledgeable, trustworthy. He was very careful and protected all of my existing property, cleaned up after every job and placed everything in my home back into its place. I would highly recommend this company with confidence.

Our contractor was so professional, honest and timely. He did all the work with a sincere professional manner. We actually had to do this via long distance. Our brother had passed away and we live in Michigan- Dave would send us emails, texts and pictures to approve the "fix" or refuse it. We would go to Lowes and pick out the flooring, fixtures, etc. send him via text a picture and UPC codes: he would then go and purchase the exact items and show us via a picture the installation. We communicated constantly with this re-do of our brother's home. We can not rave enough about Sherwood Construction. We have already recommended them to our family and friends in California. If you are in need of a handyman or further construction, please call them. You will not be disappointed.

Occasionally, life will give you a business experience that has all the "right" values. Such is the case with Sherwood Construction & Electric. Dave Norris & his crew were top notch in their work to upgrade an electric service to a new panel. They worked well to provide minimal impact to the residents of a rental house and we would happily work with Dave in the future.

Well, this was to be my first experience using Angie's List. I am in need of an electrician to repair a light fixture in my hallway. My house was built in the mid-fifties, and from my time here, it appears to have a lot of the original "everything." As I attempted to change the fixture myself, I noticed more wires than usual in the light box. So I attempted to pull some of them free to see what's in there. This is, of course, after I had shut the power off for that room. As I pulled the wires, they began to crumble. As I reached in again, I got a slight shock. So it looked like I would need a "professional." So I called Sherwood Construction and Electric. By reading their bio, I was confident that I was making the right choice. But after calling them at 8am for a requested call back, I finally did get called back after 6pm. And with this call I was told that no one would be available for at least a month or later because they were on a big project out of state. Well, to me, customer service starts with the first call. And I am very disappointed with my results after contacting Sherwood. Just a helpful hint, to the service providers, that don't make ur ads sound "bigger" than the company. It sounds like there may only be 2 brothers working for this company, as opposed to, 2 brothers supervising their jobs.

David Norris from Sherwood came out and looked at the work. He was very up-front with what would be included and not included. We agreed to the scope of work. He got with me within two days and gave me a bid. I got on his schedule and he is coming out this Saturday to complete the work. He came out just for the electrical circuit and it was repaired quickly.

Dave was able to do all the work from start to finish in a very timely way. He provided numerous options for the work and was able to get it done in less than a week. He is a gracious and professional individual.

We did not use the company because we are delaying any work until 2013.

I did not use this contractor

Dave Norris called me a short time after I put in my inquiry on Angie's List. He made an appointment with me and came to the house to inspect the windows he would replace. He discussed various kinds of windows with me, and we finally settled on a brand and style that would most likely blend with my 50's house. He spent time explaining the value of dual-pane glass. We then made a basic plan for the French doors and mini-walls. Dave measured each and every window and frame carefully. He took all the information home and returned within a couple of days with a contract outlining the details we discussed. A start date was set for the 20th of August and he ordered the materials. A week later, one of his helpers returned to assist in the delivery of the windows for storage in my garage. Norris and his crew of 3 helpers did an excellent job and fulfilled all items agreed to on the contract. He was prompt, sending me information and calling me back when requested. He arrived on time every day and was finished in approximately a week. His crew was clean, protecting my wood floors and adjacent walls. They moved all large pieces of furniture for me. All trash, nails, glass, and screens were picked up daily. The helpers were extremely respectful and careful, as was Dave, and they welcomed questions. I did not feel that he would put his workers on the job unsupervised and then leave me to deal with them. On the start date, and every work day thereafter, Dave and his helpers were quietly waiting outside when I opened the door at 8:00 in the morning. After covering the wood floors from the front door to the first work area, they started to work. The crew moved from room to room, about a room a day, replacing all the windows in one room before the going into the next room. They worked steadily and quickly, having obviously developed a routine. Dave brought me in to review their work from time to time, to make sure all was acceptible. If later I found something that needed attending to, Dave would personally see to it. He worked especially hard to remove molding in the library which matched the color of the panelling. We had agreed that if this old molding cracked, we would put in new white molding. I was so happy to find that he was able to remove the old molding and put it back up around the new windows. He did a lovely job. I was very pleased with the job as a whole. I enjoyed working with Mr. Norris. He is very knowledgeable on the subject of windows and doors, which was very helpful to me. I plan to replace the front door next, and have already arranged for a contract to be written.

Brian and Dave Norris and their teams worked for several weeks on the house and completed it on time and within budget. Brian raised several questions along the way that resulted in the ability for us to make changes to improve the overall plan. He kept in touch throughout the project to make sure we were appraised of the progress. They were very proactive in making sure we were thoroughly satisfied with their work, and we were. We would definitely use them again.

Dave did what he said he would do when he said he would do it. He kept us informed at all steps and was very cooperative when we asked for extra things to be done after he started the job. All of the workers were very professional as well. They always cleaned up after their work and took care to be respectful of their cleanliness when working in the house. We have had various workers on previous jobs at our house and Sherwood Construction is by far an outstanding company in comparison!

David did an excellent job from start to finish. He responded to all my requests and did the work in a timely fashion.
