They did a good job; they were not super-fast but were not super slow. This company did a thorough job and sent good laborers who were hard workers. They told me roughly how long it would take and that's what it took. We had to make a minor change but we talked about it over the phone and they gave me a revised price and stuck to it; it was a fair price for the work that they did in cold, wintery weather. I was happy with their service.
Description of Work: I used Ludwik Electric Services to restore power to my garage. They had to dig up a power line and lay down a new one.

He is very professional and knowledgeable. He came over and inspected the entrie house before and gave an estimate. During the work, he would come over and check on the guys who were working for him. They were professional and didn't fool around. They came early and got the job done in the allotted time. And, if they were going to be late, they called. I was impressed with their work ethic. Also, they cleaned up after themselves. They mounted sensor lights for the yards.
Description of Work: Came to rewire entire house.

Ludwick came out to give me the estimate on a full laundry list of electrical tasks throughout my very old home. The estimate was extremely reasonable and the two workers who came out to perform the tasks were very professional and thorough; they took their time and I was certain the job was done well.
Description of Work: Installed new exterior lights, moved and installed switches, rewired stove, stairway lighting, hot water heater, and other miscellaneous electrical tasks in a 100+ year old cottage

Ludwik came out and looked over the work that needed to be completed. He gave me an estimate that was in line with my other estimates. He wasn't the cheapest and he wasn't the most expensive. If you're anything like me, you don't by the cheapest car, electronics, or anything else. You do look for the best value for your money, and Ludwick is a great value! He had two people from his team (a 20 year person and a 7 year person) come to my home to begin work. They were extremely professional laying down material wherever they walked. They went out of their way to give me extra power slots for our fridge and office so I could work from home. It took them 1 day to pull the new service to the house and 2 days to finish the outdoor outlet and other changes in the basement. As I was looking to finish wiring myself, they were nice enough to spend time explaining to me what they were doing and show me some tricks to finish the work myself. Each night they cleaned up extremely well (I have a 9 month old girl who was crawling around like crazy and didn't need to wipe up after them!). Even when I changed couple of things midway through. They were very accommodating and made other recommendations that has made finishing my basement much easier. Finally, since I was finishing the basement myself, Ludwik patiently waited 3 more months for me to finish plumbing and studding out the basement to come back and make sure everything still looked ok. Overall, I cannot recommend Ludwik and his team enough. They are fantastic and I will call them again when I need anything! P.S. Inspector also said this was some of the best work he has seen. Passed first time through!

We had trouble with the breaker getting overloaded so we added an extra breaker. We had some things which we could not keep having a crash so they did this job. They were quite good and they did a good work. The charge was reasonable for what they did. They came out, did the job and went back. They were same as that of the other companies in terms of price.
Description of Work: We used Ludwik Electric Services Inc to add an extra breaker about a year ago.

From the outset Ludwik was extremely professional. He came to my house to do a free estimate and explained the requirements for the new service according to code. He also reviewed the probable timeline of completion. I was initially somewhat frustrated that he would not offer even ballpark ranges for the work envisioned. He has an old-world sense of propriety about "how things should be done." After receiving other estimates, however, I perceived that Ludwik electric was offering high quality service at affordable rates and Ludwik's sense of the "appropriate" also translated into high caliber customer service and worker accountability. Ludwik's estimate was $820,00 lower than another highly rated electrical service on Angie's List. Moreover, he actively courts customer satisfaction. Two accommodations were particularly meaningful to me. Ludwik asked me about appliances that required electricity across the installation period (refrigerator/s, freezer/s, etc.) and offered to make arrangements to keep them supplied. In addition, he arranged for my wireless network router to have electricity, so my home computer network remained functional and didn't require re-programming. I really appreciated these arrangements. His workers were introduced by name (so there were no anonymous strangers drifting through the house). Each person was neat, task-focused, and friendly. All work was completed on schedule and every bit of wire or construction refuse was cleaned up and discarded. Ludwik brings decades of experiences as an electrician to his clients and takes pride in doing a fine job for each. I had delayed this installation for years because I dreaded the likely disruptions; instead, Ludwik and his crew made this experience reasonably easy. I even requested an estimate for some additional future work -- a real compliment -- because I now envision such being tolerable! Truly I recommend Ludwik and his company heartily. He did a superb job. I finally have found "my electrician."
Description of Work: Ludwik and his electrician team removed the existing 60 amp fuse panel and installed a new 200 amp service. This involved installing a new circuit breaker with 40 spaces inside and a new gang meter box outside with a 3" steel pipe that went through the roof. This also required installing a new ground line (as dictated by City code), getting an appropriate city permit, and connecting all existing circuits to the new electrical panel. Ludwik handled all negotiations with Commonwealth Edison, the electrical service provider, and coordinated his workers, procured the necessary supplies, and ensured timely job completion,

Several other electricians either turned down the job or wanted more money. Ludwik's workers were punctual, efficient, and courteous. The finished product looks fantastic, works perfectly, and was completed in a single day. We will definitely use him again.
Description of Work: Ludwik performed a very tricky job--raising the main electrical wire which provides power to our house.

They did a very good job and they did come well within their estimate. The quality of their work was good and they cleaned up well and left it looking really good. They were able to come right away too.

From the moment I called for an estimate, Ludwik was very responsive. He came out to my home the next evening, and had the quote to me by morning. Once I decided to move forward on the quoted tasks, they were completed the next business day. I changed my mind on the location of one of the fan boxes, and they were out the next day to change it. They were very polite, and CLEAN. They pay great attention to detail. I could not be more satisfied.
Description of Work: I added a partition wall to divide two bedrooms in our home. We had the new wall wired for light switches and outlets, and had existing switches/outlets rewired. We also had overhead light/fan boxes installed in 4 rooms.

Very Good. Company originally come out to temporarily repair outside meter box when electrical service went out in cold weather(20 degrees)and then gave estimate in a couple days. I actually had more work done then originally planned due to low cost of estimate.

Also installed two 20 amp receptacle outlets in basement area. Replaced two old outlets(bathroom & exterior garage)with new GFCI outlets. Installed exterior 8ft. grounding rod and interior grounding wire to main water pipe.

He was a gentleman to the tee. I have done a lot of work on my house and I have gone through a lot of companies. I don't have any regrets of the work done. Very professional, very polite, young electrician. It was like having my sons work in my house. It was just amazing to see how quickly they were working. It took two days to finish. They did extra work without charging. They did more than was in the purposely. It was like it was my two sons! Courteous! They went over everything. We had like three walk-throughs.
Description of Work: We had a storm a couple of weeks ago with high winds and it knocked the electrical power wires from the pool. I went to turn the heat on, so I could take a shower and there was no heat. We had two hot wires. The guys took care of that. I interviewed five separate companies for the job. The electrical work for purposely: remove existing service meter box and fuse panels, install new service, install new circuit breaker panel, connect all existing circuits to new panel & install new ground line.

I can't remember how many he installed now. He did everything he said he was going to do and he was very professional. I thought his pricing was very reasonable for the work he preformed. He cleaned up everything and didn't leave little bits of debris from the wall all over the carpeting.
Description of Work: He installed several new outlets in my basement.

Description of Work: I had four new outlets installed by this company on the outside and inside of my home. I also had three new light fixtures installed in the basement.
