Response from The Electrician
With all respect I'm sorry that you took offense with our phone conversation, because I am extremely busy and there is a waiting period of three weeks. I am a one man show and if you can wait, then I can fit you in. I wish I could help out everyone, but I cannot be in two places at the same time, which I more than adequately explained to you in our phone conversation. I apologize, just being honest to you. Thanks for the F, first F rating I ever got with 267 A's, Have a pleasant day. George THE ELECTRICIAN

Description of Work: He installed a new bathroom fan and light fixture replacing one where the fan was no longer working. He also reconnected the duct work leading from the fans exhaust to the vent on the roof. All was done very well except we noticed after he left that the fixture wasn't perfectly centered in the bathroom ceiling. We assume that was because there were some barriers above the ceiling that he had to avoid. If we need something in the future, we will contact him to do it.

Description of Work: He installed a chandler over the dinning room table. I had missed place the installation instructions. He knew what to do without them. There was already wiring in the wall and ceiling from a previous chandler which had been removed. The wiring enabled the lighting to be dimmed. The Electrician informed us that the bulbs that came with the chandler would not respond to dimming the lights. He advised us of the type of lights we should get that would allow dimming them. We took the bulbs back to Loews which refunded our money (about half the cost of the chandler) and we bought the bulbs that could be dimmed, which cost about 15% of what the bulbs cost that we returned. I will use The Electrician for other electrical work I need done.

Description of Work: George is old school. If he's 15 minutes early, he's on time. He and his wife make a great team. I felt I was getting two for the price of one. When I interviewed him for the project (Panel upgrade). He said all the right things and made me feel confident he would be the right choice. They finished the job on time and on budget. He'll definitely be my first call in the future and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to all who are in need of an Electrician.
