Abate electric took forever to return my calls, fine I understand. Then when I wanted to book an appointment for literally the easiest thing in the world, they told me they couldn't do it for another week. Ok again, fine, no problem. But then a week went by and they called the day before the appointment which was scheduled for Tuesday and said they could only make Friday instead. I'm being patient, but then I called back a couple times to set a a time like they asked and I never received a return call. So now at this point I'm not happy because I just wasted two weeks for a simple task to be completed, and its still not done and I have to start over again by finding another provider. Their lack of response combined with the dirt from their prior job here ruined my experience with them. I wasted a lot of time only to find them totally unreliable. I wasn't going to leave a review for just simply not getting back to me. But today I walked in the back hall to find the piles of dirt and it prompted this review.
Description of Work: I live in a rental in New Haven and one of the guys was over at my place doing work for my landlord. He was a nice kid and I asked for his number to call the company and set something up. My only gripe was that he left tons of dirt, yes actual dirt, all over my back hallway. He was here for 3 different days and each time he promised he would vacuum, but never did. I ended up cleaning the mess myself even though it had nothing to do with me. He did the work, he made a mess, he should have cleaned it. Either way, I wasn't holding this against him until now (see below)

We interviewed and received estimates from 5 companies - all bids were competitive. These guys were wonderful - the work was performed over a couple of months spread. The first batch was the box/service upgrade and rough in for the new kitchen then the fitout of the boxes and such once the sheetrock went up followed by the final visit to install all the fixtures, sockets and switches. We even had a concern about once of the outlets placement - the next day the owner was out there to evaluate. Ended up it wasnt a mistake on thier behalf, but ours :) Owner and Office staff were very friendly and easy to work with. The only, ONLY drawback was scheduling appointments with the crew. We would have an appointment for the next day at 10am, then at 5pm they would call and say it would be the day after next.. not a huge deal but can be a pain fi someone is trying to take off work to meet them. Overall- we loved them and would use them again in a heartbeat!
Description of Work: Upgrade to 200 Amp service, new box, all new wiring for new kitchen and light fixtures and outdoor wiring for light fixtures.

Excellent. After speaking with Joann, Art's asst. I scheduled an appointment for Art to give me an estimate on a job a previous contractor did not finish. After meeting Art and receiving an estimate and schedule to complete the work, we began talking of other issues related to home ownership. His experience, skills and knowledge of the neighborhood put me at ease very quickly. On the scheduled day Art was to arrive, Art came by with one of his asst. and began work on the issue at hand. The task at hand was completed in the time Art thought it would take. Finally,My tenants are happy to be watching TV. I have more work to do and will make one phone call and that is to ABATE electric.
Description of Work: Cable connection for cable TV.

Our 65-year old electrical system started giving us trouble a week before the Thanksgiving dinner we were set to host! We got a quick visit with a number of options for fixing it - temporary to get through the holidays, temporary until we were ready to upgrade or upgrade. We weren't pressured one way or the other. The day we were supposed to get the service done, it was raining cats and dogs so the guys obviously couldn't run the new electrical box to the outside - nonetheless, they came and upgraded the box and the fittings inside the house so we could at least have power and then came back the next day to finish it off. Perfect. Responsive and really great to work with.
Description of Work: Replaced 100 amp service with 200 amp service. Repaired faulty outlets. Repaired faulty cable wiring.

I have used them several times on different occasions and they are always great. They are professional, knowledgeable, and are able to handle a variety of jobs. The price is always perfect and the work is done correctly the first time. I am definitely pleased to do business with them.

The owner of the company promptly came by for an estimate. His men were courteous and competent. When needed, the owner was available to assist. The estimate was close to the cost of the project (though a bit lower).
