Hugh's Power & Light

Electrical

About us

HUGH’S POWER & LIGHT Mission: To provide quality electrical construction in accordance with the electrical code, guaranteeing all work, at a reasonable price. During work, your home will remain your home and not become a job site. Experience: I have been doing electrical construction for fifteen years. I have performed complete re-wiring, re-modeling, and have installed new electrical services. I am union educated and trained. I am licensed and insured. No surprises: My proposals are itemized. So, you know exactly what you’re paying for. If, during work, I discover any unforeseen problems, you will be informed prior to additional work commencing. A vision for you: Add sophistication through the installation of recessed cans. Turn your dining room into a romantic dinner setting with the installation of sconce lighting. Turn your living room into a total theatre experience with sconces and dimmer switches. Recessed cans with eyeballs can highlight artwork and increase illumination for cabinetry. Using dimmer switches to replace toggle switches can reduce energy consumption and save you money. Imagine: Electrical beyond function. Many electricians can install electrical devices and lighting resulting in: ‘It looks nice or clean’. Why not choose colors and styles that blend with your décor and style? Why not choose lighting that fits a particular period. Now your family and guests will exclaim: ‘ This is beautiful or wonderful!’ This is what I want to achieve for you! Safety: I will perform a complete electrical inspection for $100.00. This will ensure safety for you and your family and protect your investment. Savings: Being a sole proprietor enables me to provide better prices, since I have no overhead costs. I have an excellent relationship with suppliers assuring the best prices on all materials. Also, I don’t charge extra for materials; my cost is your cost! Furthermore, mention you saw this advertisement on Angie’s List and get 10% off. Beat the economy special with an additional 10% off now through December. Decorating: All too often, clients have decorating performed and then decide to do some electrical work, or, an electrical problem reveals itself. Subsequently, the decorator has to come back and do patching and re-painting. Now you’ve paid twice. Allowing the electrical inspection eliminates this problem. References: Many of my clients are more than happy to tell you of their experience with me. Some will allow a walk-through to view my work. Do-it-yourself: Perhaps you like to tinker on your days off. If you run into a difficulty, give me a call, and I’ll provide what help I can.

Very statisfied. Timely, affordable. I used Mr. Imhof's services through the years 2007 & 2008
Description of Work: Over the last couple of years, Hugh has: Replaced fixtures, sconces, and fans, installed new receptacles and a sconce for my kitchen sink. He also did some piping and wiring for a new attic entrance light, and, did some re-piping and wiring for a new bedroom closet light. He even installed some blinds for me! He is reasonably priced, punctual, very clean! He even called me after my work hours! He assisted in choosing all fixtures! I've recommended him to friends and business associates. He didn't turn my home into a job site! There wasn't any wall repair or clean up necessary after he installed receptacles in my old plastered walls! Yes, I'll use him again! He is very professional!

I had old, insufficient lighting in three rooms, a fan and light that was not working in a kitchen and power outlets that were not rated to be near water in kitchen, bathrooms and bar area. I called for an estimate to get the work done. I purchased all the light fixtures and the fan ? I gave him a key and Hugh took care of the rest. We set a date for the work to be done. It took several days to complete since electrical lines had to be run for the lights and new switches installed. I did add a couple of small requests while he was on site and he cheerfully completed those tasks as well. The work was completed efficiently in a few days. I have used this company on three subsequent occasions and have been completely satisfied with the work. Hugh is thorough and tidy (something I am not accustomed to seeing with every service provider). I highly recommend this company if you need electrical work in your ?older? home or business.
Description of Work: Installed a new lighting system in three rooms, installed a new overhead fan and miscellaneous power outlets to meet codes.
