AGC was fast, friendly and Flexible with my install and I would highly recommend. I will be using again to install a ceiling fan in my living room. - Good communication (was the first person to reply back to my email request for quote) - Was flexible when I had to push back my appointment due to doctors visit - Arrived on time and was very personable - Did the job professionally and quickly / cleaned up when he left Great attention to detail, when he installed the fan he adjusted some of the light holders to make sure they were evenly spread apart. I am 100% satisfied and fully recommend you reach out to him should you have any electrical needs, his prices are very competitive and his level of service was excellent!

Andy came out to quote a laundry list of electrical repairs at the request of a home inspector since we were selling our home. He replaced an aging electrical and sub panel with a single panel which resolved a safety issue because my panel was missing an interior cover, not to mention the common problems of some double taps that are caused by insufficient breakers. He then replaced romex that was fished around in a few places and added GFCI outlets to circuits in the basement. He also replaced exterior outlets with new weatherproof GFCI outlets. He was here all day with my wife and she felt comfortable with him and his father doing the work. I have found my new electrician. Fair pricing and outstanding work!

After reading all the previous reviews there is no need to look any further on finding an electrician(s) in our opinion. AGC Electric, Inc. was top-notch on everything, from getting the quote, communication throughout the project, follow-up, quality of workmanship, to final inspection from the Village for the service upgrade. We did buy a certain panel that we wanted for installation & other equipment for the project; Andy and Mr. Gheorghita (Sr.) had no problem installing the panel & the other equipment we purchased and even gave us credit on the final invoice. It was a real pleasure working with true electrical professionals, and we will certainly hire AGC Electric, Inc. for our next project(s) in the future. This company is a rare find for integrity, professionalism & top quality workmanship. Outstanding Service!

I called Andy at 3pm regarding two outlets that had mysteriously gone dead. The breaker wasn't blown, the connections on the outlets themselves were fine, and there weren't any GFCI's blown. Adrian was at the house by 5:45 and determined that it was a faulty breaker in our service panel. He replaced the breaker and was finished within 15 minutes of walking through the door. These guys are extremely pleasant, amazingly affordable, and true professionals. We're new to Wheaton and will definitely use them for all of our future electrical needs. A breath of fresh air!

Andy and his team take pride in their work and it shows in the quality of workmanship they provided. They offered us very good suggestions throughout the remodel which helped make the project run smoothly. In addition to his great work, we really enjoyed that Andy has his crew were punctual and showed up on time and did what they needed to do without too much instruction. To boot, they were much more competitive on price than other electricians we bid out on the job. My suggestions is if you want a great electrician and you like saving money, call Andy. Thanks again. Mike
Description of Work: Andy did a lot of work for our house over the past several months. We upgrading all the lighting on the front to LED cans.

Andy was very prompt, polite, and professional in providing me his very reasonable quote. The cost of service listed above includes an Angie's List members' discount. He was always punctual when arriving to do work and performed the task in an efficient manner. I have had no problems with the electrical work. He went out of his way to offer to be available if any problems arose the day that I had my electric cooktop and oven installed. He also followed up after the installation to make sure there were no problems. I would definitely hire him again.

Andy was responsive on returning phone calls. Submitted bid as promised. Followed up with setting a time to get the work done. Was extremely punctual, and very professional in his approach. Completed the work in less than the time promised. Explained the process thoroughly. Cleaned up after the project was completed. Would definitely use AGC again for any electrical work.

After reading many reviews, we settled on AGC, and we were not disappointed! Adrian was punctual, and worked quickly and efficiently. One of the lights we were replacing was a closet light, and when I told him the light we intended to use, he very helpfully informed me that it would not be "to code". He made a suggestion as to the lighting I needed, and I was able to quickly buy the correct lighting for the closet, and even had him replace lighting in two other closets that was not to code. We will definitely call him the next time we have electrical work to be done.

Mr. Gheorgita (Sr.) was prompt, polite and very helpful in his inspection. There was one stand-out moment during his inspection, that I would like to share: He needed to open a switch box and examine the wiring inside. When he was finished, he told me that it would be just as easy to fix the problem (which had troubled me for years) as it would be to put the box back the way it was - and so he had repaired it for me before closing it up. I call that the very definition of 'professional courtesy'! Mr. Gheorgita (Jr.) provided me with a clear, detailed and reasonably priced estimate via e-mail, just a few days after the inspection. I accepted a bid for this job from another contractor, because they provided a broader range of services. But I am sure, from my personal experience with the two Mr. Gheorgitas, that AGC Electric would have done the job quickly, effectively and with a good attitude, too.
Description of Work: Mr. Gheorgita (Sr.) of AGC Electric personally inspected the electric service in my building, and provided an estimate for upgrades, includingnew circuits and wiring. His estimate was clear, detailed, reasonably priced and arrived promptly via e-mail, just a few days after his inspection.

Can't say enough about Andy and the job he did. He was professional, polite, on time and (most importantly) did a great job with the electric work. I started swapping out an old ceiling fan for a new ceiling fan with light. Ran into problems when I discovered that the electric box had been incorrectly mounted and was not up to code. Brought Andy in to get a quote on doing 6 rooms in the house including the room I had been working on. He reinstalled the electric box, brought everything up to code and did a fantastic job of installing all the new fixtures and getting everything properly wired. He was great at communicating his schedule and what he was able to do for me (we opted not to put a light in one room since it meant cutting through crown molding to wire it). Very respectful - took off shoes, drop cloths everywhere and cleaned up all the mess at the end of each day. Even knocked rather than rang the doorbell b/c he knew my kids were napping. He also has a lot of integrity. When I overpaid him, he immediately drove back to swap out the check for the correct amount. Whenever I need electric work done, I"ll be hiring Andy again!
Description of Work: Installed 3 fan/light fixtures and 3 light fixtures. Three rooms had no previous fixture and had to be wired/installed from scratch.

The AGC technician arrived and we went down to the basement to check on the box. As he was checking one circuit went dead. I explained how about half the house went dead especially during storms and he checked and saw one of the mains from outside with meter reading of zero. We went outside and he removed the meter and carefully cleaned the leads. Went back inside and there was still an issue. We went back and he not only cleaned the leads from the meter but also cleaned 2 sockets from the the house box as well. He had much less trouble reseating the meter and once inside the power was rock solid. The contacts of the meter had become corroded. I had had another electrician check this last year but he found only that it might be a problem with the inside box. AGC made sure the leads from outside were also checked after getting my feedback on the issue. I have had this issue for roughly 7 years and finally in a one hour visit it is corrected. Thank goodness for Angie's list and most of all this electrician's determination and thoughtfulness.
Description of Work: AGC Electric checked the junction box and internal wiring of the house to see why lights were failing intermittently.

I was told by a home inspector that I needed a bonding jumper on my electrical service. I called AGC this morning, and Andy was able to fit me into his schedule today. He was prompt and professional. Upon inspecting my service, he identified that I already have a bonding screw and that I didn't require anything else. We then discussed GFCI outlets for my kitchen. He was knowledgeable about code, and I decided to upgrade my outlets. He went out to purchase the needed supplies, returned, and quickly completed the work for a very reasonable fee. Andy also gave me other valuable information about my electric service and current electric building codes. I was very pleased with Andy and his work and will certainly call him again if I decide to do further upgrading.

Once I sent out a request for an estimate, AGC promptly requested visiting my house to give a proper estimate. I was told that there might be drywall damage to provide access for cabling going between the basement and the second floor. That was scheduled, and within a couple days of visiting, the estimate was provided. After looking over the estimate, I requested a few changes to the proposed work. A new estimate was provided soon after. I waited a little bit for a competitors estimate, but that turned out being much more. I accepted the estimate, and scheduled the work. At the time I was told that there might be a long delay getting started because of another project. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the work could be scheduled within a week or two of accepting the estimate. They arrived to start work on time. The work proceeded smoothly. They found a way to route the wiring from the basement to the second floor without having to cut any drywall. All the jacks were labeled, and the corresponding wires in the basement were labeled. They installed the light fixture I had purchased. When the job was completed, the amount requested was the exact amount of the estimate.

Andy was fantastic! We will be using him again whenever we have a need. He was prompt in scheduling and arrived exactly when he said he would. We asked him to install a new fixture in our office, which included some unpleasant surprises from work that was not done properly by the previous homeowners. So, what in theory should have been relatively straightforward, became much more complicated. Andy was very careful, thorough and efficient and took it in stride, seeing it through. And the end result is great. He is very pleasant and professional, and I would highly recommend him.

When I joined Angie's List, it was in the hope that I would find an electrician like AGC Electric. They did excellent work at an excellent price. Andy was very responsive to phone calls, text messages, and email, and communication is critical when working with a contractor. And they were very pleasant to work with. I am sure there are other excellent electricians, but we will call AGC for any electrical work in the future. I highly recommend them.
Description of Work: AGC installed LED canned lights in our family room (ceiling height 27 feet), installed canned lights in a home office, installed ceiling fans in three bedrooms and one in the family room, and changed out light fixtures. They also hung a new chandelier in the foyer and in the dining room. This work took place over several days as fixtures came in.
