Walter is one of the senior most persons in his profession, very genuine and that clearly is seen in his work. Unlike others, Walter does not charge by the hour. He spends a lot of time in first investigating the issue and then addresses the problem. He is extremely patient and does not rush through to complete the task. I liked that a lot. With in few hours of getting introduced to him we were fully able to trust him. Needless to say he knew exactly what he was doing. Once again his experience speaks! I was surprised with his humbleness after learning that he works for huge well known companies and is always traveling around the world for projects.

Walt is very personable and responsive. He coordinated the shutoff with the utility company. He did the work when he said he would. He was knowledgeable on the repair, and exceeded my expectations. He was fair on his fee. Would definitely use Walt on future jobs.

Great! Walt came and explained everything to me. And I probably asked a lot of pestering questions because I like to know about this stuff. His price was the most reasonable also which was a big help. He worked hard, did very good work — and especially, he listened to what I wanted and tried to make it happen. In the end the job came out perfectly. He's a friendly guy who cares a lot about customer service and quality work. I know I'll

He was able to come within a few days of my call diagnosed the problem quickly. He needed to purchase a replacement part so we scheduled a second visit for a few days later. He showed up on time, make the replacement, tested it and it was fine. He only charged for one visit and did not charge additional for the replacement part or two floodlights.
Description of Work: The floodlight on my deck kept flipping the circuit breaker off (so I stopped using it)

I had purchased a charging device from the car dealer and needed to have it wired into a new 240 V 40 amp circuit. Walt added the new circuit breaker to the electrical panel in the garage and mounted the new device to the wall. He made the necessary electrical connections and ran the wires via flexible conduit through a small box that covered the hole in the wall. Looks nice and works well.

He is very thorough and does everything up to code and safety is a concern. I have him on the books for a future project. Walter was able to resolve electrical issues from an electrician before. I really appreciated him trying to keep us safe and doing everything that is supposed to be done. He is also very reasonably priced.

Walter is very personable and professional. He has done quite a bit of extensive work in my home. Added overhead lighting in our bedrooms and added wiring and fixtures. He found faulty wiring from contractor before and removed it and installed new to code. He is always responsive to my questions and calls. Walter is very knowledgeable and conscientious when it comes to safety and makes sure everything is up to code. I actually have him coming today to replace a light fixture. I plan on having him change up some exterior lighting in the spring. I highly recommend Walter to anyone needing electrical done.

This contractor exceeded my expectations. Walter resolved an issue on my HVAC system that was missed diagnosed. He did an outstanding job. I received more information that I ever thought I would. I have Walter coming back to work on my breaker box - he had discovered is wired with the wrong breaker switches - this could have negated my insurance if I had a claim. Walter is a master electrician - he looks at everything - he is knowledgeable and ensures everything is up to code. He even followed up to make sure my thermostat was working after he re-wired (had melted). I highly recommend and most definitely will use again.

Walter had great - goes above and beyond expectations with no surprises. He is accommodating and sticks to budget and always on time and stays on schedule. Walter follows up after the work is complete to ensure I am totally satisfied The crew is also professional and hard working and they cleaned up at the end of each work day like it was the end of the project. I would recommend Walter (and do) to friends and family without hesitation and most definitely will hire in the future.

Walter is the best electrician we have worked with. He is honest and efficient. On occasion he has provided advice over the phone to diagnose issues that we could fix ourselves, saving unnecessary costs. Walter is highly experienced and as a result is highly efficient in recommending the correct solutions and implementing the fixes.
Description of Work: Walter has performed numerous electrical related tasks for us in our primary home in Massachusetts over the last few years. Wiring of HVAC, internet and TV systems and general electrical work were we needed new appliances, or rewiring of old out of code wiring. One piece of work worth highlighting was the lighting he recommended and installed for our built in entertainment center, which the lighting added greatly to making the unit a show piece.

Walter came out to give us an estimate the same day I called him and had an estimate emailed over that same night. He came over on a Saturday morning and completed the entire project in a day. The project came out looking and functioning beautifully.
