Scott does all the work and has 30 years of experience and boy does it show. He has worked on just about everything and can find a way to make a difficult job go smoothly. I used him at my house and I am responsible for taking care of several rental properties also and will use him for all my future electrical and wiring needs.
Description of Work: Installed new phone wiring in house.

I called Wentworth Communications and Electric and they came in and fixed the problem we were having with our telephone lines. He was very friendly and was quite knowledgeable. He came in and looked at the phone system. I troubleshot the problems that we had and within ten minutes, it was fixed. He knew exactly what he was doing. He walked me through it. We got everything updated. He suggested I get a back-up power system. He didn't try to sell me anything. It's an older system and he could have easily said we needed a new system. But he didn't do any of that.
Description of Work: They repaired our landline phone line.

Very well, from start to finish.
Description of Work: He listened to my story of the history of the crackle on my landline and agreed it was most likely due to the age and state of the original wiring (1965). I informed him my wall jacks were all replaced and the line from the punchboard outside to the phone in the laundry room had been replaced, but the crackle persisted intermittently. He agreed it was most likely a moisture issue since the crackle was worse during colder and/or wet weather, so there was not much he could do unless I wanted an entire re-wiring, surface mounted throughout the house, which I am resisting until I have more money. So, as a desperate measure, he disconnected an extra phone that the last owner had installed himself, thinking that might positively impact the crackle. I was to call him about the results. The crackle is less frequent, but still show up on occasion. I appreciate his listening, his input and honesty.

We had an old 3 line phone in a home office which worked just fine, but wanted a two line phone with caller ID and two 'companion' phones that we could put in other rooms. Purchased a new phone set, but could not get one of the two telephone lines to work with new phone...we assumed it was the handset and returned it and purchased another brand....tried to install it and had the same problem. Checked Angie's list and decided to call Scott. He came the next day and went right to work and figured out what the problem was and hooked up all the lines to the new telephone and fax machine and set up the other handsets in the other rooms. He arrived on time, went right to work after we discussed what the problems were and what we needed. He also "unscrambled" a pile of wires which where connected to our router and modem and another computer and printer and three telephone lines in a separate home office. . He did all this in less than an hour and everything works!!! We are most pleased and highly recommend him and would surely use him again if the need arose.
Description of Work: Efficient and Knowledgeable!!

I called Scott and was able to set up an appointment for the same day. He arrived, on time and quickly resolved the mess I had made of the phone jack wiring in kitchen...which had also disabled my main phone line in master bedroom. He was quick, professional and very pleasant. He got the job done in no time, making certain all phones in the apartment were in good working order.... and....he gave me a discount because he said it was such an easy fix. He didn't have to do that. I am impressed!
Description of Work: Re-wired phone jack and reinstated phone line to kitchen and bedroom.

Scott is very knowledgeable and knows what he is doing. He is very competent. He is trustworthy and professional. I feel comfortable having him in my home without a doubt. He came highly recommended. I am glad we know him because he is the only person we would trust with our electircal work.
Description of Work: Scott has done a lot of electrical work. He has installed lighting in our kitchen and he has hung a huge chandelier from a second story ceiling. He has also installed different outlets and circuits around the house. More recently, he did some wiring in the garage.

Three other contractors had performed various work on my house earlier in the week prior to discovering my phone lines were dead. All three of the services had the potential to have cut the main phone land line somewhere in the house. I called Mr. Wentworth on my cell phone and he gave me a suggestion as to what I could try on my own to diagnose the problem. When that did not resolve the issue, he came to my house the following day and was able to diagnose the problem within five minutes. Although he was ready to locate and fix the problem if need be, he did not have to. The problem was not in my house. It turned out that coincidentally the connection to my phone line had broken in the junction box down the street, which ATand T promptly repaired.
Description of Work: Determined reason why all phone land lines in the house were dead.

I called Scott on New Year's Eve, and he came two days later - amazing. He was fast, neat, competent, and professional, and finished a job in 90 minutes that could have taken hours if he wasn't an expert in a wide variety of wiring schemes and didn't have all of the right parts on his truck. I've been in the computer business for nearly 30 years, and have contracted for a few very large wiring jobs in my time - compared to those, this job was miniscule, and based on Scott's performance on this little job I wish I had known him a few years ago & used him for those large jobs as well. Bravo!
Description of Work: We moved into a newly constructed house which had been pre-wired with data cable, but nothing was labeled and the wiring panel was a rat's nest. We got high-speed internet service from AT&T UVerse, and used Wentworth Communications & Electric to connect the AT&T-supplied modem/router to the service line, and then connect two of the wall jacks (one upstairs, one down) so that my wife and I could connect to this router via hard-wired wall jacks (10x the speed of wireless).

He did the work reasonably and quickly. I trust him, which is more then I can say for the original electrician. I'll continue to use him and recommend him to others.
Description of Work: He rewired our old house for us. After we built our new house, we were very unhappy with the electrician that our contractor had hired. We contacted Scotty who educated us more about what we needed and made the necessary repairs.
