I would absolutely hire Omar again. He was extremely polite and and his work was very neat, he worked quickly, and everything was done exactly as we requested. We've had several electricians in our home over the course of a huge remodel, and he was by far the best. He was honest when asked about something he thought we could troubleshoot ourselves, rather than pay him to do. Definitely recommend!
Description of Work: Omar fixed our kitchen light, put in a new three-way switch, swapped the wires on two different sets of fixtures and switches so that they were wired the way we wanted, and installed a dimmer on an outside light.

Omar was very professional when he came to evaluate the job and provide an estimate. On the day of service, Israel and Doug came out, they were both very punctual and professional. They were very considerate of our home and covered work spaces in plastic as to minimize dust and dirt. They worked straight from 8am till 3pm with no lunch break even though we offered to order them a pizza. The work they did was clean. In the third bedroom where they were installing a new ceiling fan, they only made one small hole in the ceiling to run the new wiring. I will need to have some drywall work and painting done but that is to be expected and Omar had prepared me for the holes that needed to be made. I was very happy with their work and have already called Omar to bid another project we have.
Description of Work: Replacement of lighting fixtures over kitchen island, dining room and two bathrooms. Installation of new ceiling fan in third bedroom (no previous wiring in place). Installation of new lighting fixtures in third bathroom (changing from one fixture in center to two, one over each sink).

Two guys showed up one day to do the bathroom vents. Omar showed up a couple of hours into the job to bring additional supplies and assist with the job. Then the other two guys left and Omar finished up. He also quoted me on the additional work I needed. For the recessed lighting job (2 days later) I wasn't home but it looks great! He told me to purchase different trim if I didn't want to use the basic trim. I bought the trim and not the kit and forgot to purchase light bulbs. Omar went to the store and bought all of that for me. He added the additional cost to the bill. He also provided light bulbs for the fans. All in all, Omar was nice. The crews were friendly. Recessed lighting (6) $1295 Bathroom vents/fans $495 per installation
Description of Work: -Bathroom vents installed -recessed lighting in living room (6) -timer panels for outdoor lighting

I highly recommend Omar and his team. Omar was extremely courteous, professional and calm when I met him for an estimate. He calmed my fears about items on an inspection report that weren't a big deal from a practical application standpoint. His estimate was very clear, straightforward and really reasonable on price. The team members who came out to complete the job were courteous, hard working and were extremely careful not to damage anything, ding walls or floors, or let dust or debris get anywhere. I made a few changes to my project needs day of, and there were no issues. Final number paid was exactly as expected. Great job!!

First of all, let me say that when Omar came out to give me a quote on the work i needed done he was on time as well as very courteous. He listened to me explain my situation and gave me options and recommendations on what i could do to resolve the issues i was having. We scheduled another appointment to get the work done. When Isreal and Doug came to do the work they were both very professional and completed the work in a very timely manner. These guys really take your time seriously and do very good work. They swept up and off they went, no mess and my electrical needs were met.
Description of Work: Updated a breaker box and also ran an additional line to the kitchen in my condo.

Doug was excellent. He arrived on time and prepared. I explained my problem about the ceiling fan not working and I felt the prior electrician had done everything he could think of. Before dismantling and returning my 72" fan I decided to try another electrician just to prove the trouble. Doug verified the voltage good, the fan installed correctly, but troubleshot and corrected my problem. The fan now works and I am ready for Spring/Summer 2016.

Omar is wonderful. I called in the morning, hoping to get an appointment for the same day. Omar called me back within an hour, and was able to come out the same day. He took one look at our light fixture, and knew exactly what was wrong. He didn't need to actually fix anything, and what was unexpected was that he didn't charge us for the visit! UNHEARD OF in today's world. We will definitely use him in the future for all our electrical needs!

It went great. I was most impressed by Omar?s responsiveness. I left him a message the morning of 2-23-2016 at 8am. He called me back less than 10 minutes later and committed to arriving at my home at 9:30am. He arrived ten minutes early, and immediately began diagnosing the problem. After his initial diagnosis he explained what he determined the problems were and commenced working. Omar was professional, patient and informative. He explained everything that he needed to do and his pricing was very reasonable. I highly recommend EXCEL Electrical Technologies. I will be using them for any future electrical needs and recommend them to anyone who requires their services.
Description of Work: Omar restored power to three upstairs bedrooms and a bathroom that was lost due to a faulty circuit. He also repaired a switch in our upstairs hallway and an outlet in the kitchen.

I called Excel Saturday morning to set up a appointment for the upcoming week. Omar himself, called just a few minutes later and was very professional and polite. He was willing to work with what ever time was good for me and we settled on a 0900 start time for Tuesday. Again, Omar showed up at 0855 and we discussed his payment options and he began to check out my electrical issue's. Omar spent a good amount of time and found many issues from the previous owners DYI projects. After he found the problem we discussed payment options and came to an agreement. Omar was professional, polite and answered with enthusiasm all our questions. Without any doubt Omar is the man for fair, fast and quality electrical work.
