We hired Ken to replace a few light fixtures in our home. He was prompt, responsive, and overall excellent to work with. Plus, the fixtures look fantastic! I highly recommend Ken and would absolutely hire him again.

Ken was extremely professional and easy to work with. He offered suggestions on a solution that would work for us and put the solution in place expertly. Ken paid attention to the finest details. We will certainly call him again.

He is very delightful and he goes above and beyond when it comes to offering suggestions or helping out with cost. He is coming back out tomorrow and i really trust him because he did such beautiful work the first time. All around, he was stellar in every way. He is personable, does great work, efficient, and has a great eye.

Very experienced electrician of over 15 years. Seen it all. Installed VERY challenging 2-pipe system-based thermostat. Evaluated bathroom ventilation system options. Provided useful advise on other projects in home without selling services. Installed two fans and track-lighting super-fast. Ken is a problem solver and approaches all situations with consideration for implications, cost on homeowner, and long-term value. Cleans up throughout process. The Best.

HomeAdvisor steered me to Ken Brown, of Proactive Prevention. I was seeking help for a very basic project. Embarrassingly simple DVD hookup dilemma actually. Mr. Brown solved the "problem" in about two minutes. I was so impressed with his professionalism and tact, I asked him to look at a vestibule light that's been out of commission for years. Ken went right to work, rewiring this old fixture that really represented a huge safety issue. Ken had it up and running in a short time, and the price was quite reasonable. His range of skills is beyond impressive. Five stars all-around. He's a gem, and I will be in touch with him soon to knock more items off the "honey-do" list. Thank you Ken!

We hired Ken to hang a large quantity and variety of art, posters, guitars, memorabilia in our large office space on 2 floors. He responded immediately, came same day for an estimate, quoted a very reasonable price, and was able to complete the project 2 days later. We'll definitely use Ken and Proactive Prevention again!
