The work was performed as a result of an Angie's List Big Deal. I have assumed that the price $819 was a good one but did not get other quotes. The young electrician, Tyler, arrived promptly, was personable and professional and finished the work earlier than expected. We were without power for only about 3 hours. . We discovered that night that he had omitted one of the circuits, so we called the office the next day. Bryan sent Tyler back at the end of the following day (we requested the delay since we weren't home on the day we called) and he fixed the problem promptly.

The service guy was running a little behind schedule but made a much appreciated courtesy call to let me know exactly when he would arrive. He quickly fixed problems including a front porch light that also needed a new bulb, which he replaced with an LED light so I wouldn't have to climb up and change so often. He also added the master bathroom outlet that I wanted, pointing out he only had a white cover available but would order a brass cover to match the rest and return to install it. He also identified a defective generator for under cabinet kitchen lights, ordered a new one which he will also rerun to install. He was fast, professional, an personable. He was great and I will certainly use this company going forward!
Description of Work: Checked GVC outlets, added outlets to master bath, checked/fixed porch light and under counter kitchen lights.

Have a finished basement that had one intermittent light switch and one dead circuit. |They came and fixed the dead circuit (after creating a flash of electric sparks - very dramatic) but didn't have the switch needed to fix the intermittent problem.

I need to upgrade the service in my 100 year old house from 60amp to 100 or 200 amp. The Big Deal seemed like the right fit. When the vendor came to look, he said the Deal wasn't to convert a fuse box such as I had, but a breaker system to an upgraded breaker system. The estimate came in at $2,950 for the work i needed, and all that was credited was $849, no more. Since the coupon I bought represented a job of $2100, I thought there would be some value beyond the $849 because the work was related to the Big Deal though not identical. I suggested that McCurdy credit less than $2100 - say $1800 or $1600, but no. Thus I must rethink the project because Deal has no financial benefit.

They missed the first appointment which was inconvenient but when we called they re-scheduled the second time went smoothly. We also had an additional outlet repaired and the cost was the same as the cost for running the line for the first one, which was a little high. So despite the mix up the work itself is well done and the outlets are working fine. So we're pleased.
Description of Work: McGurdy's Electrical installed an outside outlet for us for the Angie's List price. They needed a permit and pulled that at an additional charge.

They were fine with scheduling. The work was completed well and they were punctual. They were very professional.
Description of Work: They changed outlets and installed one plug designated for the Air Conditioner. They also upgraded wiring for an outlet in a bedroom. The other 2-prong outlets they changed were in the living room, kitchen and bedroom. They rewired the front and back doorbells. They also upgraded the appliance outlet for the washer and dryer. They also resealed around the meter. One master electrician and another completed the work in about 7 hours.

It went very well...They replaced receptacles that were not grounded and they also installed a new light fixture in the front hallway and placed another light fixture in my upstairs hallway. They removed 2 lines of knob and tube. they had to remove the drop ceiling in my living room and remove the original light fixture to remove the old knob and tube and fish in the new wiring. They also removed the knob and tube from the front hallway, front porch and basement. They installed a pullchain light fixture over my washer and dryer. They had to snake new wires and I was amazed at what a neat job they did leaving only small holes which they patched up. All and all I was very happy with the work.

They were wonderful. They were efficient. The person who came was very professional. Now I have an outside outlet where I never had one and I had to run an extension for it. They also took the time to do inspection and gave me a quote for outdoor lighting so they were great. I had to pay the electrician permit fee which I didn't know about and I don't know if it is for every town. I would have loved if I knew about the permit fee. They were great. It still was a great price even with the permit fee. They were fantastic. They are going to install outdoor lighting in my house.

The experience was fantastic - We were able to meet first thing in the morning by 7:30 talk about what needed to be done - and I was out the door in time to make it to work (I take the T). When I didnt know exactly what I wanted (or needed), Tyler would come up with the idea and take care of it. Litterally the best project I have ever worked on. I have outlets that are to code, outlets for a freezer in the basement, outlets for my workbench. And lights! No longer struggling with a single overhead bulb on a pull chain to light my way. I cant say enough about my experience - this is the second project they have worked on for me. I will use for all my electrical needs.
Description of Work: Tyler and his team wired my basement for outlets, updated my box, and put lights up.

A different crew arrived to do the actual job. I was confused because they disagreed with the initial estimate and stated and quot;that this was a small joband quot;. They used this line frequently over the next day or so as a reason they either had to go get different materials and/or the job was different than they had expected. I purchased the fixtures from a local lighting store as agreed. When I was given the final bill it was twice the amount estimated. At no time did anyone indicate that the amount would change. When I questioned how the final amount was determined, I was told that I had an old home and that and quot;thingsand quot; happen. I was not happy to be presented with a bill that was twice the estimated amount. I expected some overage, but not 2 times the estimate! Eventually after several discussions with the main office, the situation was sorted out and the final bill was reduced by a small amount. In future I will not use this company. I feel that work is estimated, then any significant overages should be discussed before work is completed. I also wonder if this situation would have been the same if they were working with a man instead of a woman...
Description of Work: I initially called as part of deal to have electrical service inspected on my house. Someone from the company called promptly and we scheduled a time for an electrician to come. They arrived promptly and began inspecting service. The electrician advised me that a few items weren't up to code. I had already wanted to have someone install a new light fixture above my front door and another at the top and bottom of my stairs inside the house. He gave me an estimate for the work I requested along with estimates to bring other items up to code. I agreed and set up a time for them to come back to do those jobs.

Dave and Mike did an amazing job. They spent a couple weeks at the house carefully rewiring the entire basement and upgrading our service and electrical panels. What was a mess of wires held to the ceiling with duct tape is now arranged on runner boards and we haven't tripped a circuit in the kitchen since. They found a lot of illegal and unsafe wiring and corrected it also always making sure that we were aware of what they were finding and what they would recommend to resolve the issue. They completed each item on our list so now we have peace of mind that the electrical in our house is safe and up to code. I wouldn't use anyone else for electrical work.
Description of Work: We contracted with JP McCurdy to resolve issues with the electrical work in our 200 year old house. We asked them to remove all remaining knob and tube wiring, clean up/resolve issues with the newer wiring, add new circuits for the kitchen, install an exhaust fan in a bathroom, install hardwired smoke detectors on each floor, replace/upgrade our service and electrical panel, and add new switches and outlets to some rooms

I had called to make appointment, its was set for November 1 at 8 AM Person I spoke with took a detailed list of work I wanted done, including the new cable TV connections I called the day before to confirm the time and I asked, for the first time , what the cost per hour was, I was told $99 per hour On the day of the appointment I waited in my kitchen and by 8:35 decided I had waited long enough and called, spoke to Carl(?), he said someone (not him?) changed the schedule and they would be there at 10:30 AM. Question? If it was changed why did no one call me, no explanation. At ~11:15 still no arrived, I called again - was on hold for a while and was told and quot;They are on the causeway now...and quot; They showed up at 11:35 , causeway is only 2.5 miles long, so they got lost. 2 guys showed up, asked what work to be done, could not tell if they had been informed of list, but after a walkthru - they got to it Around 3:30 one of the guys said the other guy had to go back to office for cable connectors, that's odd since I specifically went over this when I first called? At about 4:15 I was signing a work order that was rounded up to 4.5 hours + materials But I was not shown a price per hour for the work. I get the bill and its $130 per hour, I call , $99 is for 1 person not 2, so I did not ask for 2 people and I was told its $99. Next day I get a call back, Carl(?) explains its $130 for 2 people again, so some ohh and ahhs and he gets back to How about $115 per hour, ok fine because the work was good, the guys who showed up were professional, and I did not to want to waste my time. My advice is to get a price quote ahead of time, that way there is no mis-understanding

Absolutely superb throughout the whole process. Both Brian and Tyler made the whole process go like ice cream. My last experience with an Angie's List- recommended electrician went poorly where I had to fire them, so it was grand to have been able to deal with such professional contractors as JP McCurdy. I am already planning the next phase of work to be done and will most definitely call upon JP McCurdy again - highly recommended!

Vlad showed up right on time at 7am. He did the work in a very professional matter and it took about an hour. The only thing I would say is that the fine print states that the outdoor outlet must be on the opposite side of the wall from an indoor outlet and if you'd like it anywhere else there will be an extra charge. Why does this have to be in fine print? This is important information. Also, there is an extra charge of $55 for the permit, they did let me know about that ahead of time. I'm still waiting for the copy of my permit from the town though. Overall, I would use them again, they did a good job.

.The home inspection for this new to us house identifed numerous problems with the electrical service that needed correction, some immediate. Most of the Angie's list electricians we called took weeks to schedule the estimate and took several more weeks to provide the actual estimates. Some of the estimates did not even reflect the work we'd discussed. Some came to scheduled appointment but didn't provide estimate until long after promised date. Wish I'd called JP McCurdy first. They came out the day after contact and did a very through examination of our many problems. I received a complete written estimate the next day. It was equal to or significantly less than others that we received as well as those that continued to trickle in after work was completed. They started the work the day after I authorized it. It was a very difficult job and they were persistent and well dispositioned throughout.They resolved intermittent problems patiently running through them until the cause was found. It was a pleasure to have such committed hard working people in my home.
