We had a new water line installed to our house. The metal pipe was replaced with plastic, which could not provide grounding for our electrical service. I was told we needed to install grounding rods. I called Argento in the morning and described the problem to Peter McGowan. He was able to work it into his schedule that day and arrived in the afternoon. He installed two copper-coated grounding rods, each 8 feet long, about 10 feet from the house and 8 feet apart. He dug a trench and completely buried the wire. It took about and hour. When he was finished, you could not tell the ground had been dug up. Peter was very knowledgeable and professional, and a pleasure to talk to.

They did everything they said they were going to do just the way they said they would. Peter, Chris and Kyle were very neat, informative, efficient, and productive. They gave me an estimate before they started. Said it would be under $1000 and it was!
Description of Work: Did a bunch of things around the property. Got rid of 43 exterior lights on the ground. They also organized some electrical lines, and got rid of some unnecessary equipment.

No work done as no response.
Description of Work: Came for assessment and mailed their estimation. I called 4 times after to book a date for actual work but no response. Why come for 1 hour doing assessment and spend money on mail, when they have no interest in doing the actual work.

Bob was very responsive and professional when he came to look at the job. He described all the issues with the lighting system and made clear what the costs were going to be and the parts required. He explained how the sensors and controls worked and was very patient. He even did additional work looking at garage door opener bulb issues and changing a flood lamp bulb by the roof top at no cost. He was very quick, efficient and courteous. I would highly recommend Argento Electric for future jobs.
Description of Work: Argento provided electrical fixes to the motion sensored lighting in my garage.

You can tell a lot by a provider based on how they respond when things go wrong. Initially, the ceiling fans turned slowly. A quick email (didn't even have to call) and they immediately responded and came back. Turns out the fans require a period of time to "warm up" when first installed (foolish me). I was impressed with Argento and continue to use them.

It was A+. They came in and took their shoes off immediately. They spread out a blanket so that scraps wouldn’t fall on it. They took them out when they left. It was just a pleasant conversation. They had it done quickly and just the way it was supposed to be done. The price was exactly what they quoted. We liked everything about their service plus their manner. We were very pleased at that time.
Description of Work: We used Argento to install a light in the middle of our dining room ceiling.

Description of Work: I required several new plugs in the garage and wire the recently installed attic fans. They bid the project, which was accepted, but never showed up to do the work. They said they were busy with other projects, so the start date was two weeks out. On the day of the scheduled start, they were a no-show. I used another contractor (from Angie's List), whom was both on-time and lower cost.

Response from Argento Electric LLC
[member name removed], You are correct, we did miss our appointment with you and there is no reasonable excuse. My apologies to you and I'm glad you were able to have the job done for less than anticipated. T.J. Argento

Description of Work: Upgraded electrical services in an older house (built in 1955) including adding a new circuit to the bathroom and a GFI outlet, rewiring basement overhead lighting, upgrading a subpanel, and adding additional circuits to the kitchen. I asked TJ to advice me on upgrades to this rental housing for saftey. He was very good at advising me and explaining what he believed needed to be done. His estimate was very clear and detailed. The job was completed in the estimated time frame and neatly done. Very professionally done. I felt very comfortable with TJ and his crew. I would definitely use them again and recommend them to others. I had one other estimate which was approximately the same amount but I had a real problem understanding exactly what would be done.

The job went very well. Mr. Argento and his crew were very punctual and professional in their work. They did a very nice and tidy job. They walked us through the process of hooking up the generator and all the steps required to safely switch over to generator power. They included a drop cloth at our entrance to keep as much dirt out as possible.
Description of Work: We hired Argento Electrical Contractors to install an Interlock kit, outside twist lock receptacle, copper ground attachment, and 50' 30amp rated generator cord for connection to generator.

The estimate was provided in a timely manner, and I thought the pricing was presented in a straightforward manner. If I wanted the electrician to purchase and deliver the fan, a certain percentage would be added to the actual cost. If I wanted to do the non-electrical installation, I was also told how much I could save. I have chosen to do the basic installation myself and expect to hire Argento for the electrical portion of the installation.
Description of Work: I contacted Argento Electrical and after a visit to my house, I received an estimate for installing an attic fan. I was given the costs associated with having the electrician purchase the fan, deliver, and install it. I was also provided with a clear breakdown of the pricing.

No problems. TJ came over to review the job and we scheduled to have the work done a few days later. Two of his guys came over on time and completed the job in a very professional manner. They put down a drop cloth over the vanity and cleaned up after they completed the job. We were satisfied with the quality of the job and price.

When we called to schedule the work, we were told it would be a few months. This wasn't a problem as we were not in a hurry. Three workers arrived on time and on the day we had scheduled. They were all very courteous and professional. One of the owners who came, Tom Argento Sr. was extremely knowledgeable and very pleasant to have in our home. In fact all of the workers were. I can't say enough about their professional manner. Their work is equally as good. Hanging pendants can be very tricky but they hung three of them over our table, centering them perfectly. They checked with me throughout the morning to make sure I was happy with the placement of my new fixtures. When they left, my home was cleaner than when they came! They do a terrific job cleaning up. This company is great in every way and I would definitely use them again!
Description of Work: We had a new kitchen light installed which required a new junction box. We also installed new pendant lighting and a ceiling fan.

THIS WAS A BIG JOB THAT WENT ON FOR WEEKS AND WEEKS. TOM AND HIS CREW DID A GOOD JOB, ESPECIALLY RESPECTING OUR DESIRE TO DO AS LITTLE COSMETIC DAMAGE TO THE HOUSE AS POSSIBLE. SOME PARTS OF THE HOUSE WERE MORE CHALLENGING THAN OTHERS, AND THEY INVESTIGATED UNTIL THEY FOUND THE CLEANEST WAY TO GET THE JOB DONE. WE USUALLY HAD A CREW OF 2, SOMETIMES AS MANY AS 4 OR 5 WORKING AT ONCE. EVERYONE WAS POLITE AND THEY ALWAYS CLEANED UP AT THE END OF THE DAY. THE ONLY REAL COMPLAINT WAS THAT WE COULD ONLY SCHEDULE THEM 2 OR SOMETIMES 3 DAYS A WEEK DUE TO THEIR OTHER JOBS, SO THE WHOLE THING STRETCHED OUT OVER MANY WEEKS. BECAUSE OF THE SCOPE AND SCALE OF THE JOB, NO ELECTRICIAN WE TALKED TO WOULD GIVE US A BINDING ESTIMATE, AND MOST WERE RELUCTANT TO EVEN BALL PARK IT, SO WHAT WE HAD IN ADVANCE WAS THEIR HOURLY CHARGE. THEY WERE PRETTY GOOD ABOUT KEEPING TRACK OF ALL THE HOURS AND NOT PADDING IT.
Description of Work: UPDATED OLD KNOB & TUBE WIRING IN TURN OF THE CENTURY HOUSE. REPLACED ALL OLD WIRING IN WALLS AND FIXTURES, UPDATED ELECTRIC BOX, ADDED SOME NEW SWITCHES AND OUTLETS AND RAN ETHERNET WIRES.
