No problems! Made an appointment about two weeks in advance, and E/R electric sent out two electricians who had the job done in under 2 hours. They were prompt (showed up a little early, even) and helpful in explaining the work being done.

Everything went well. In fact, better than expected. Originally, I had contacted a big name electrical company and after they came and assessed the work to be done I was told they would have to drill holes in the walls to replace the doorbell wiring. That in itself was going to cost some big money. Eddie from ER Electric gave me a quote on the same work and he was finished with everything in a couple of hours. Please note, he didn't have to drill holes in my walls to rewire the doorbell. Instead, he found the burned out transformer and replaced it. All-in-all, I am very satisfied with the quality of his work and prices. He saved me a pretty penny. It's only fair that I use that savings and hire him to do the rest of the work the big named company wants to charge me thousands of dollars to do. Thanks Eddie!
Description of Work: I needed several things done (fix broken doorbell, replace timer on outside flood lights, and replace piece of electrical casing on outside flood lights).

My tenant was noticing that the lights in the apartment were flickering and then would not work. I had her check the breakers, which had blown and then a few hours later, she indicated that the power in the apt had gone out again. I called ER electric and they were there the next morning, 10 minutes early. They determined that the breakers were bad and sparking in the basement. I was pregnant at the time and had already climbed to the 4th floor apartment, so they took a phone video of the breakers sparking in the basement to show me exactly what the problem was without making me walk down the stairs. The fixed the issue in an hour, and were extremely friendly, courteous and professional.
Description of Work: Replaced 2 breakers that were sparking.

This was the final job before final inspection of a full blown attic finish job. We needed to pull a permit for the final inspection to be done. After 2 months of back and forth, calls (always very nice over the phone), text messages, him being on vacation and on 'bigger jobs', I never saw him ... I ended up hiring another electrician who did the job in less than 3 hours.
Description of Work: Had a couple of lights/switches to be put in crawling spaces of an attic and modify the location of another light as per the inspector request.

Response from E R Electric
thanks for your review. upon contact we spoke with electrical inspector George Martin who told us what had previously happened with the 1st electrician you had on the job. he told me why he walked off. I stated that on the 1st week when we first talked that I didn't want to take over someone else's job especially since I knew your 1st electrician and he told me the real reason behind all this. the reason you waited around was not my fault that was your choice and now your making up different stories. anyways glad you had your issue resolved but you should have not waited especially when I stated that right after the bat we were not comfortable.

ER Electric and Eddie are excellent! He immediately responded to inquiry and we agreed on a date. My new pendant lighting was installed this week and it looks beautiful. They arrived exactly on time and were polite and efficient. The work was completed in just a few hours and the room was left very clean. They even returned the next morning to make a minor adjustment to the height of one of the pendant lamps at no additional charge. I am VERY, very impressed by ER Electric and will definitely hire them for my next project. Thank you very much Eddie!

Eddie was great. I had called and left messages for six electricians and Eddie was the first to get back to me - and the only one to get back to me within the hour. He was responsive throughout the entire process, clear about pricing and his proposed plan (to replace the light fixture with a new LED light), and showed up on time (actually, a little early). I know this wasn't the biggest job, so I appreciated Eddie's ability to get this done quickly and without any hassle.
Description of Work: I had an overhead interior fluorescent light fixture that was no longer working. Eddie recommended replacing it with a brighter LED light.

Eddie could not have been better! He was speedy in getting us a quote back and was considerably cheaper than two other electricians we contacted. We agreed on a date for the work to be done and he was on time, very professional and got the job done quickly. Initially, he had thought/hoped he could just put a cover on the box that housed the mains, but when he went to do that, he noticed that it was an older model. He tried to find a cover to fit that model but was unable to (and didn't want to fudge it for safety's sake which I really respected). He was able to schedule a second time for him to come back and just replace the entire box. It was more expensive to do that, but again, I respect his commitment to safety. I would hire Eddie again for any electrical needs I have! He was a pleasure to work with,
Description of Work: We hired Eddie to replace some outlets in our basement that were recessed into the wall, to replace the box that the mains were housed in so that there was a proper cover on it and to separate grounds and neutrals in our subpanel.

I had a great experience with E.R. Electric. Eddie and Steve showed up on time, happy and ready to get to work. They methodically worked through my list and even ran out to buy a replacement light fixture/fan that I had not originally included. I really appreciated their professionalism, patience and personalities (very pleasant and friendly, which is important to me). This was my first experience with Eddie. Everything went well and we've already planned for him to come back next month. Highly recommended!
Description of Work: I needed several new light fixtures installed, some outlets tightened and the ability to run 2 additional air conditioners. I also needed to ask a few questions and get a professional's opinion in order to plan additional projects.
