Excellent.. Eric was responsive and was superbly neat in his work. Tested the finished job and all was well. The time was less the upper end of what he had estimated and the price was very fair. I will use him again in the future. I recommend him without hesitation.
Description of Work: Installed a new electrical outlet in "office". Had to bring up a wire from the basement panel, and install outlet in drywall.

So happy I was able to care for this customer to their satisfaction! I value the kindness expressed in the total grade A rating. This was a pretty straight forward job. Often a customer will need to have a receptacle or light fixture installed where there was not one before. This type of work make up the majority of the work I do. Because of that I usually can figure out the best way to do the work, and then complete the work in a very timely manner. I have been called back to do a little more work for this customer since this initial job. So pleased that I have been able to pleasae this customer to his satisfaction!

iI contacted Eric after having trouble with my TV service. The TV technician informed me some of my outlets in one of my bedrooms were not grounded. Eric came out and assessed what needed to be looked into with the wiring. He was very nice, professional and I felt I could count on him to fix the problems in a timely manner. He did the necessary work, kept me informed and stayed until the job was done. I feel much safer now and am looking forward to my next electric bill as it has been so high in the past. I'm sure what he replaced and repaired will have a positive effect on the amount of electricity being used in my home. I highly recommend him because he knows what he is doing!

Such kind comments, and a grade "A" across the board! Thank you very much! I was able to care for a few basics, but then the surprizes came. The customer expressed concern about a very high electric bill, and along with that there was the problem of dimming lights. I called the power company and had them come out to review the transformer on the pole. Tey mentioned that they had previously changed the transformer due to the unusual amount of energy each month. The lineman opened the meter socket and we found that water had run into the electrical panel from inside the meter socket. This damaged the main breaker terminations by corroding them to the pint of limiting the electrical connection. This nessitated the replacement of the electrical panel. It was not safe to leave it over night. This was determined a bit late in the morning. Parts were bought. The panel was replaced. Late night, but they were able to sleep soundly without worry from that point on. I was glad to be part of this project. True, they had to pay a bit up front for the replacement, but they will save that much, and more over time, and not have to worry about the arcing in the panel causing a fire, and endangering them and the home. If something else needs to be done for this customer I will welcome the opportunity.

Thank you for the very positive report! I have had this return customer for some period of time now. It is a pleasure to serve them. Some times though I cannot get to the job in a quick manner due to previously scheduled work. At other times it may be due to the heat that would be encountered in an attic while working for an extended period of time. I greatly appreciated the patience this customer extended due to the work needing to be done was in their attic. I look forward to being of assistance to them again in the future.

Eric was fantastic. He's very personable, easy to reach, and accommodating. He came by the house after a long day of work just to look at the problems we were having and suggest solutions (no charge). He then came back out with his assistant to do the work. They were both efficient, polite, and helpful. They explained my options and their thought processes every step of the way so that I knew what was being done and why. The work was completely quickly and they did a great job of cleaning up once they were done. Overall it was a great experience and I would not hesitate to call them again and/or recommend them to anyone that has electrical work to be done.
Description of Work: Eric diagnosed and repaired an exterior security light that had mysteriously lost power, brought some shoddy wiring done by the previous owner up to code, and protected a stretch of knob-and-tube wiring against future problems.

Thanks for the glowing positive report! It was great doing work for this customer. I found that the previous owner of the home had done some remodeling work and used the improper type of wire for the project, thus creating a possible fire hazard. Replacing the wires and putting the wire joints in junction boxes was the key. The previous owner had also not used lighting boxes above the kitchen light fixtures, again creating a fire hazard had there been a short n the wire joints. All the work was performed to the satisfaction of the home owner, and now their home is much safer. It's a beautiful thing. :-) I look forward to being of service to them in the future if they have a future electrical needs.

When I called Eric, he let me know that he would possibly be able to come by and take a look at what needed to be done the same day. At the end of that day he called me and let me know he would have to make it the next day, but that he would most likely be available in the afternoon. He called me that day around noon and gave me an exact time that he would arrive. He and his assistant were on time and got right to work. Eric was very friendly to my husband and me and our cat. Our cat (who doesn't like strangers usually) even took to him! He was installing a chandelier with halogen 10-watt bulbs and gave us helpful hints about how to make sure the bulbs last and not to exceed their wattage when we purchase replacements in the future. I'll definitely call Absolute Electric when we have future electrical work!
Description of Work: Eric and Courtney installed a chandelier light fixture.

This man is outstanding. If all people would work the way he does, this would be a more successful city. He had to dig at least 30 feet outside and several feet below the ground to get the extensions out near the fire pit in the woods. We've used him for other inside electrical projects and we were very happy with his work.

Eric Hansom was most professional, he showed up the same day I called him for an estimate, he answered all our questions and we set a date to have the work done. He showed up on time to do the work. Everything was done to our satisfaction. The work was done in A timely manner and everything was cleaned up before he left. It was nice dealing directly with the owner. Eric was very meticulous and did a great job! I would highly recommend Absolute Electric LLC.
Description of Work: Eric upgraded electrical service to 200 amp breaker service. Put new exterior pipe through roof with elect main to raise height of main to street. Installed outlet for garbage disposal, and repaired light switch in kitchen. Installed new switch box and switch leg for ceiling fan and installed new ceiling fan. Installed new exterior motion light on rear of garage.

Thanks for the GREAT review! As I have stated in the past, I really like to do the work of replacing Electrical Service Upgrades. It is good work that makes the customer's home much safer. Many of the older Load Centers/Fuse Panels/Breaker Panels are unsafe due to the age of the equipment. Others are just obsolete and very difficult for which to find replacement parts when something in them goes bad. Upgrading the Electrical Service is often the best option in these cases. I am glad to be in a field of work that helps out both parties. I can provide a service at a reasonable cost, and the home owner gets something from which they can benefit for a very long time.

Eric Hanson has been the most professional contractor I have ever worked with. He is responsive, punctual, answers all questions pleasantly, and communicates well before and during the job (he even texted me updates and pictures when I was at work about the job's progress!). He is very concerned about doing the work right and doing a great job. He is meticulous and extremely competent and knowledgable. He gave us suggestions on materials that hold up well in bathrooms (due to their propensity to have a lot of moisture) before he started the job and found a big problem with our subfloor that couldn't have been found prior to the estimate. He communicated with us about the importance of fixing the problem before laying the new flooring, which we appreciated. He is very careful to tidy up after he is done for the day and puts down tarps so as to not track debris around the house. On top of that he is really pleasant, personable, and kind. He was mentoring an apprentice while working on our bathroom and he was always very patient and kind to him. I recommend Absolute Electric and Maintenance, LLC without any reservations. I definitely will use Eric again when we remodel our next bathroom.
Description of Work: Half bath remodel: tear out of old vanity and flooring, installed new subfloor, laminate flooring, repaired a large hole in the wall hidden by a mirror by the previous owner, repaired other wall problems, painted walls and ceiling, switched out sockets and switches, and painted and installed trim and baseboards.

Thank you SO much for the rave review!!! I enjoyed working with this family. They understood the reason for replacing the sub-floor. The toilet had leaked in the past and had ruined the integrity of the MDF sub-floor. With the replacement of the sub-floor I felt confident that the work I would do would last quite a bit longer. They were very good about making the home available for the work, and very understanding when an unexpected service call came up that lasted longer than expected. Great folks to work with! I look forward to being of help to them in the future.

Thank you very much for the A+ Report! I was glad to be able to do this work. It was an extensive amount of work for a remodel. It included installing new smoke detectors in locations that they did not exist. Thus requiring some challenging wire pulls. Fun though. Concerning the electric floor heater. I agree with the homeowner. I am not as pleased as I have been in the past with this product. I have thus decided to no longer use this product in the future. I will opt for something different. I look forward to being of help in the future to any other projects that may come up! :-)

On time by the days end he was finished.
Description of Work: Very professional , efficient, and good communicator. He scoped the work out , developed a list of things that he needed and worked every minute he was here or getting parts etc. Didn't take on projects that were not his expertise but gave me names of others he knew who could help me out with other repairs. Creative thinker because I remember he suggested a cat door rather than some opening in the screen for the cat as it was before. The cat loves it. Thank you.

This is the 3rd or 4th time we have hired Absolute Electric. Each job was completed totally to our satisfaction. The latest work was to install more lighting in my Mom's kitchen area. She is legally blind and Eric made sure that the lighting was going to help Mom. He also did some rewiring of light switches in our main kitchen and realigned our front storm door that had damage from a bad wind. I highly recommend Absolute Eric.

Prior to starting work, Eric walked us through the minimum-gauge wire calculations for the dedicated circuits. Two required only standard 12-gauge, wire but the soaking tub circuit required 8-gauge wire to avoid a voltage drop that could damage the tub?s heater and pump. (That was good to know.) Eric also suggested that we install the GFCI for the tub circuit in the wall across from the tub instead of where the pump and heater plug in so it would be easy to access. That added about 25 feet of wire and an hour of installation time, but easy access will more than pay that difference the first time the GFCI pops. The site was prepared for Eric?holes in the plates and studs had been drilled, all necessary openings cut, and new wires had been run (but not connected) ?so he could concentrate on the work that required his skill and knowledge. Adding three new circuits to a panel is always a big job. In our case, an additional ground buss was required to accommodate the new circuits. He also made up the two most complex switch boxes, one that had to accommodate the 8-gauge wire required by the soaking-tub GFCI, and one that had to accommodate the controls for the heated floor. In one day he completed everything we had to have done for our first inspection by the building inspector. The next day, we asked Eric to come out to investigate a ?hot? reading in a wire that could not possibly have been hot. He quickly determined that the reading was caused by ambient voltage from a hot wire that was wrapped with the other wire. He recommended a low-cost meter that could distinguish between true ?hot? and ambient current, and even told us where to buy it.
Description of Work: The amount spent is almost all labor. We bought the material ourselves. The project was to run wiring for a master bathroom remodel. Eric’s job entailed updating low-voltage switches in the existing bath to line voltage and running three dedicated circuits: a soaking tub, a heated floor, and a GFCI located in the new-construction part of the remodeled bath.

Eric and I discussed my ideas for a fence and worked together to make a design. He worked out the details and got back to me with an estimate. Although it seemed like a lot of money, I always appreciate Eric's enthusiasm, attention to detail, and professionalism, so we decided to do it. When we finally got it scheduled, he worked with two helpers for about 4 days in the cold and snow, and our fence is beautiful. We love it, and love the work ethic that Eric always brings to every job he takes on. He is bright, friendly, helpful, and generally awesome!

Thank you so much for the great rating! Fun project. It was a little silly that it turned off cold the day I had to start the project. What do you say. You can't control the weather. But you can control your commitments. I hired a sub-contractor to set the posts for me, and I finished the job by setting all of the fence panels. The customer was good to work with. She had a few changes while the work was going on, but the changes did not cause any trouble. They were simply changes. The result of the changes was a reduction in the originally estimated cost. The end result turned out very well. She was pleased and I was also. She now has more room in her backyard for her family, and privacy that she did not have before. I look forward to continuing to help this client out with any future needs they may have.

Thank you very much for the "A" rating! This turned out to be a pretty good job also. I was able to replace a storm door that was damaged due to wind during the tornado that went through the area. I was also able to find and repair a loose wire joint in a ceiling outlet box that powers a fluorescent light in the garage. The customer had some work done to the ceiling, again due to the tornado, and it turned out the wire joint had come loose. She also had a room that was remodeled. but the trim carpentry was not completed. I finished that up. All of the projects were completed in a day's time and I was able to come in under bid.

All went great. Very prompt and on time. Described whole job - what all would look like. Many contractors don't care about cleanup after a job - not Eric. All debris was cleared out. We've had many contractors in our home in the last 6 years. We must say that Eric has been the best. We highly recommend him. As a matter of fact - he's doing more work for us in a couple weeks.

Please see above the only thing that didn't go smooth was the running of the main cable and conduit from the barn to the meter base. A phone cable was cut and the digital cable was cut. Both were repaired within 24hrs, so no big deal on my part.
Description of Work: I had power ran from the meter to a pole barn. This proved a little problematic for Eric because he/we had a hard time locating the buried cables. Once the power was ran he installed electrical panel, outlets and lighting. I have purchased the electrical panel and lighting and Eric supplied the all the wire conduit and associated hardware. I was pleased with his professionalism and he eye for detail. I would recommend him for future work.

I was glad to be of help to this customer. I was frustrated that it did not go as well as hoped. I felt bad for the homeowner. When the underground wires are marked, but not exactly in the locations it makes work a bit more challenging. I was glad to be able to have the cable line repaired first thing in the morning, and to repair the phone line immediately following. Unfortunately the cable line that was in the ground was not a direct burial line. When the cable line was disturbed while burying the new power feed to the barn it ceased working. Upon discussion with the cable tech he mentioned that the signal was very weak at the pole where they made their splice. Too, the type of connection on their incoming splice on the pole was obsolete. When the new line was installed the obsolete part was replaced, and the signal on the new wire was outstanding. I was glad that it all turned out quite well in the end. I feel bad about the difficulties experienced. The customer expressed how he understood why the difficulties happened. I know that I earned his respect in making sure to do all I could to remedy the problems. Due to the respect earned he hired me to care for an unrelated problem experienced at a future date.

It went just fine. Eric completed both repairs in about three hours. Both repairs were successful. Fixing the track light involved disassembling the tracks, removing corrosion and lubricating them, and reassembling them. He replaced the damaged outside metal box with a PVC box and adapted the conduit and attachments as necessary. At his suggestion, we upgraded from a standard GFCI to a weather-resistant model.
Description of Work: Replaced an outside box that had been destroyed by a falling limb; also, serviced an outside track light system that was failing intermittantly

I so enjoy working with this customer. He is working on an extensive remodel of the home. I will miss being able to work with him when the project has been completed.

He is coming back out next week to finish the job. He did a great job and is very acticulate. He cleans up after himself. He was not the cheapest, but we ended up saving money in the long run because of tips he gave us. We would highly recommend him to others and will continue to use him.
Description of Work: He has come out and did some electrical work for us for our chicken coops.

Thank you so much for the great rating! This job is kinda fun. Run wires underground for supplying power to a number of outbuildings, and wire them safely. What is great is the opportunity to work in a rural setting with such beautiful surroundings. This is one of the things I love about my work choice. Being able to enjoy nature and working with such great customers provides great satisfaction. Have a great one! I look forward to the upcoming projects you have in mind to complete.
