The work done was phenomenal! Chris and his team were punctual, reliable, and more importantly the job was done safely! I had an old fuse panel and since they are discontinued, it was time to upgrade. Chris made it a seamless transition for my home. The permit with the city was handled by Chris and was seamless. I will definitely hire again for future projects.

Thank you [Member Name Removed] - for taking the time to write such a nice review. Sometimes inspectors can be a little challenging to work with, Damien was a delight, Com Ed was a little challenging party, but it all came together well. Thank you again

Professional start to finish. Always returned phone calls. Answered questions along the way. Worked with inspectors to ensure we would pass their requirements. Respectful of our property. Work completed is neat and orderly and well labeled. Not a cheap option but we got value out of everything we hired them to do. This is the A-Team for residential electrical.

Of all the service tradesmen I have ever hired from Angies List, Chris Walsh is by far the very best. He was there to answer any questions I had and there were many. Chris made sure things were completed saftly and up to standards that far exceeded my expectations. His team is tip top and extremly trustworthy. I have already started recomending him to others as well as Angies List who helped lead me to this geninus of a electrciian. They really don't make them any better than Chris and I recomend him more than anyone else I have ever worked with before.

I needed a ceiling light fixture removed and a new ceiling fan installed. Ceiling height is 14 feet. Chris was responsive and prompt. Scheduled service with a two hour window of arrival. He and his helper were professional and were keen to be careful not to damage any walls or my floors with the large ladder and equipment. When they finished they cleaned up after themselves as well. Not many people take the time to write good reviews, but my experience was a good one so I had to share. Their bid was a little higher than others that I received, but I am happy with my choice. But it was a fair price.
Description of Work: First time customer and I am very satisfied. I would recommend them.

Chris and his apprentice did an excellent job of installing the new fan and connecting it to the existing wall switch, which is what I wanted instead of using a remote. He brought all the equipment he needed and cleaned up after he was finished. He even gave me free advice on how to fix my track lighting, saying "I can show you how to fix it yourself and won't have to charge you for doing the work." I would definitely recommend him.

Excellent - Chris was quickly responsive to the request on a Saturday evening, made great recommendations for the project & scheduled time for the job to be completed. He & his team were right on time and finished the job in a half day (much faster than I expected). The work was done well & exactly as requested & the price was reasonable. Highly recommend Chris & this company.

I was very pleased with their service. Chris came out on a Sunday morning to give me a free estimate. He explained very clearly the options and quoted me a price which was reasonable. The actual cost of the job was exactly the same price. When Chris arrived 2 weeks later to install the fan, he did an outstanding job and explained to me exactly how the wiring and mechanism would work. He also took a look at another fan which I had installed myself (not fun) and which was not working as expected and gave me a temporary fix until such time that I replaced it. I now have a beautiful ceiling fan and I'm confident in the installation. Great service and quality.

Chris is a top notch professional. I live across the country from the address where work was completed, and Chris was extremely easy to work with to get the job done even with that added challenge. He introduced me to a lighting vendor, liaison with the tenant, and checked the product before install. He went over and beyond to make sure it was completed easily and correctly. I have subsequently hired him for more work and highly recommend him.

Chris was exceptionally responsive to my call and came out to do the work the very next day. It turned out to take longer than anticipated, but he and his crew stuck with it and made sure everything was done properly. Chris takes time to explain what he's doing and why, with safety always top of mind. We're very pleased with their work and will use them again.

Chris was wonderful. His pricing is very fair, and he stuck to his quotes, even when times went longer than expected. They do very clean and neat work, and everything is done safely and to code. Just for reference, $1700 was two full days of work, and included multiple projects.

Chris performed a thorough inspection and testing including replacing fuses and determined that it wasn't electrical but HVAC and helped me complain to the HVAC service that charged me $250 and didn't solve anything. The theory is that they sent someone who wasn't capable of doing the work. The HVAC company refunded the emergency fees and are sending a supervisor back out today. Chris went to Home Depot to get fuses and to do all the work--well above and beyond the call of duty on a Sunday night. His professionalism and honesty was impressive and truly appreciated. I will definitely call again!

Contractor never showed up for the estimate.
Description of Work: I cannot comment on this electrician's quality of work, since I only wanted an estimate. I spoke with the owner on the phone, explained what needed to be done, and scheduled an estimate for late in the afternoon. I arranged my work schedule accordingly. However, this contractor never showed up, nor did I receive any calls or emails explaining his no-show.

Response from Quality Residential Electric Inc
First, let me appologize, it is rare that I am that involved-and into a job, that I really do not realize that it is now 10pm, and too late to call you. Having said that, there are many times I come behind other contractors who have charged for their estimate - which I have never done. If you had not posted this the very next day, I would have had a chance to call and explain, I was busy going above and beyond the night before, as I would have done on your project. I have an overwhelming A rating, and there is a reason for that. Still, I am sorry we missed the mark, and will have to own it. I have established yet another new contact method in an attempt to avoid this in the future.

Wonderful! Chris is so responsive and professional. He is a perfectionist in terms of ensuring that the job is done well and safely. He explained the issues clearly and provided alternatives if needed. For a project that was much more complicated and labor intensive than I realized, Chris got the job done! I will definitely use him again and highly recommend him to others.

Great experience with Chris! He's knowledgeable, ethical, and determined. He looked for the root of the problem rather than just charging for replacing our electrical box which another contractor was going to do. Plus, the other contractor never provided the root of the problem. We could tell that Chris loves his work, and shared his thoughts with us as he worked through solving the problem. We have him on our call back list if we ever need electrical work for our home. Very good experience with him.
