Colman Electric

The electricians showed up right on time (for a same day appointment) and called to let me know they were there (as requested). They were friendly, professional and knowledgeable. They explained what they were doing throughout. They could not determine the problem so they called their boss for assistance. They were then able to determine the problem, quickly went to their shop to get the required part and returned to fix it.

The crew of two, one of whom was the owner, John, and the other, I assumed, an apprentice, arrived about 20 minutes late, but they were coming cross town to South Boston so may have hit traffic. They came in and got right to work. It took only a minute or two for John to find the tripped GFI outlet behind the fridge. For whatever reason I totally missed that, and thankfully John didn't seem annoyed by having come out just for that; they had other work to do (the K & T inspection) fortunately. Again, they got right to work on the K & T inspection. John himself climbed up to the attic through a small opening and had a good look around. He seemed to understand and appreciate the importance of a thorough inspection. There was some troubleshooting of a couple outlets, which included flipping some breakers, and they were able to make a good assessment of everything in the house. They replaced one non-grounded run of older "BX? wiring with new Romex for one outlet, which had a receptacle that was replaced during a remodeling job just over a year ago but had not been properly grounded.. The job was completed in about 90 minutes and again I was impressed by the level of professionalism and care. After paying John by check, he gave me his card and took my e-mail address offering to send me an invoice once he returned to the office. This I promptly received from his office manager, Nancy, via e-mail later that afternoon. Overall a very good experience. I would hire them again.

They are local. My husband dealt with them. It was a fine experience but I was out of town. I have used them before.

I had had an earlier very positive experience with this company. But this last visit was a disaster. There was a main electrician and an assistant. The assistant carried a ladder downstairs without looking, and knocked a hard-to-get ceramic pot off my stair landing. It crashed down onto a very expensive leather chair, causing two bad tears in the leather. To be fair, the men were apologetic, and their insurance rep was prompt with follow-up and reimbursement. This is probably a one-off event for the company, but it was traumatic for me.

It was very easy to schedule an appointment - I probably waited less than a week for it. He came on time and did the work in a short amount of time and removed the old lighting materials, per my request. I also talked with him about some other projects I might want done in the future and he was very good at discussing possible options for handling what I wanted done. I was very pleased with the work and would hire them again for future projects and repairs.

They are great. Readily accessible. Quick service. They are clean when they are working in your unit. Very aware of their surroundings and are sure not to disturb anything in the process of doing what they need to do. They have done interior rewiring for me as well.

They came when they said they would, were quick and professional, and nice, too. They even showed me what had gone wrong, and how to fix it myself next time.

The service was great. Very professional and efficiently used their time. Plus, they cleaned up afterward. I would used Colman's again.

see above

They were fair. They came when they said they would and they were professional, courteous, and careful.

This was a very problem free appointment. Information was given plus parking availability in the area so their representative was able to take this in consideration to be on time. He was helpful, professional, and I certainly would recommend him. This was a rental unit so it was important that this issue was taken care of as quickly as possible.

Colman came promptly and completed the job quickly and neatly.

All went well. They arrived on time and did all work - including the front door - carefully and cheerfully. Our tenant stated that "they were super nice guys!"

We had a switch plate that had started heating alarmingly when used. They made it out the same day I called, arrived right on time, and took care of the problem with no fuss.

They were recommended by my plumbing people and they were fine. They were very professional.

They are honest, prompt and do excellent work. They take great pride in what they do. I might use them again in the New York minute as they say.

Was able to give me an estimate and start the project in just a matter of day. Other than having to leave early one day to a ttend to an off site emergency, the job was problem free.

It took a few phone calls and a couple of appointments, but they did come in and do the work very professionally and well under the estimate provided. I'm very satisfied and will call them again next time I need minor electrical work done.

Company was very professional. Came to my home on time. Workers were very neat, drop clothed entire room. I was very pleased with the outcome.
