I called Riiska Electric and dealt with Dan Riiska. I had recently purchased a foreclosed home,the power had be shut off over six months which then requires an electrical inspection for CL and P to reactivate. The electrical serice panel in the basement seemed in relatively good shape from the exterior. However, Dan removed the cover of the panel and found two major problems. The right side wires were all singed in a fire, and the panel had water damage. He left the panel open for me to inspect when I got off of work. He explained water in the box was usually carried in by a fault in the insulation of the cable from the meter. He suggested replacing the service panel, repairing the internal wires, and running a new cable from the meter in. While working with the old meter on the house, he found it to be in severe disrepair and contacted and coordinated with CL and P who replaced the meter. After all this was done,he had me inspect everything with him and faxed a letter to CL and P stating the power was safe to be restored. Really did a nice job, at a very fair price, and coordinated everything well with the electric company. Would highly recommend Riiska Electric for any future work.
Description of Work: Complete inspection of the electrical service and replacement/rewiring of the electrical panel including the service cable coming into the basement from the meter.

I have been pleased with every job they have done for me and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone who wants first class work done at a fair price.
Description of Work: Removed an old chandelier and installed a new chandelier in our Family Room which has a high cathedral ceiling. The mounting height was over 20 feet and required scaffolding in order to reach it. The work was carried out by the owner and three of his helpers. It was completed within approximately 2 1/2 hours. The owner had estimated that the cost would be in the range of $400. I could not have been more pleased with the result. I have used this electrical company many times in the past for various tasks, such as installing a new outside post light, changing ballasts in difficult to reach fluorescent light fixtures, and installing supplemental control panels for air-conditioning.
