Nick is a super nice, personable guy. I'd love to give him a better review.
Description of Work: Nick came out to look at the projects I needed to have completed. He took notes and told me he would get back to me with a quote. He never did. I called and left 2 messages and he never returned the calls. I am using another contractor from this site.

They were absolutely fantastic. What made them great is the personalized service. I actually had multiple contractors come in. Some of the contractors that I've dealt with didn't even want to touch it because they were afraid. The price is great and these guys just worked really hard. I was there the entire time and I watched them work and they were just fantastic. They're significantly less expensive than the other ones that I went to.
Description of Work: I used the services of Nicholas Tomaszczuk Electric for electrical work. They were here twice for two different things. The first one was converting with a 3-prong grounded outlets, added some lights and fixing fixtures. They just basically did an overall work on the house. They also added exterior motion lights.

Nick and his team did a great job in what turned out to be re-wiring nearly half of a 2 family house. I had just bought the property and the inspection revealed some remaining knob & tube wiring. After contacting a few electricians, I went with Nick. The others didn't want to deal with knob and tube or were very high in price. Because the amount of needed re-wiring was unknown, Nick gave a reasonable range of cost and we agreed to do it on time and materials with a cap. They ended up finding a lot that needed to be replaced and additional problems of the 2 apartments not being separated properly. Nick and his team did a great job in insuring all the workwas done with minimal disruption to the house or tenants. Great Job. In addition, Nick is just a good, honest hardworking person. He was right there with his guys crawling in the attic space and he also takes the time to make sure the customer is happy with the work and value. I will (and have) definitely hire Nick again and give the highest of recommendations to him and his work.

Nick's response is ALWAYS prompt, if not immediate, His prices are fair and his work (and his work ethic) are simply the best. He is meticulous, cleans up when he is done and is very helpful with advice on various projects (options, pricing, etc) We feel fortunate to have had him work on our home and would not think of calling anyone else for any other electrical work we might have done.
Description of Work: Nick has been to our home several times since the first time we contacted him in the fall of 2011. He has installed outlets, interior fixtures, exterior lighting and upgraded exterior outlets. His most recent visit was to replace a light fixture in our utility room

We had a bunch of little odd electrical jobs that needed attention (replace some switches and replace an outside spot light). I wanted to use someone really local and used Angie's list to find a reputable electrician in town. Nick was punctual and accommodating. I had changed things up a bit from when I contacted him and set a date to come to the house. He had no difficulty with this and readily did what I asked (even for an on the spot request). He is neat (a dustpan follows him) and polite. I would use Nick again.
Description of Work: Replace the outside motion sensor light. Replace the basement switches. Replace a couple of the outlets in the kitchen (on the spot requests) Better set the dimmer switch in the dining room (one spot request)

After we bought our house back in April Nick has been outstanding in providing electrical services on various projects around the house. He first replaced the old fused based circuit breaker that was not up to code and overlaoded in some areas with a brand new circuit breaker with extra slots. He recommended the larger circuit breaker because we were going to need the extra slots with all of the rennovations planned for our house. This past summer he came out a rewired a bedroom that I had stripped back to the studs and when I finally completed the project last week he came back out and finished hooking everything up. Nick is always prompt and the consumate professional. In addition he is very honest about what is needed and will not try and oversell services. When I wasn't sure about if I needed to hardwire smoke dectectors in my house or not with the bedroom rennovation project. Nick was quick to explain the exact way the code is written, which allowed me to delay that rather expensive project as I found out I didn't need it done right away. Honestly, please do yourself a favor and call Nick over you will not be disappointed.

He knew right away what to do. He was able to snake the wires through the wall from a nearby closet and hence did not do any damage to my family room walls. He was very professional and come on the appointed time. he also cleaned up any mess and his price was very reasonable.

I needed a ceiling fan hung in my bedroom and I called NIck based on other reviews I had seen on Angie's List. He did not disappoint. He came over for an initial chat, to see exactly what was needed since I told him I had an older home, (built circa 1887), and additionally, he would be replacing an existing older ceiling fan. He was nothing but professional, detailed, direct, punctual and downright nice. He has amazing knowledge about all that is electrical, even describing how my home was wired historically until now. He showed me what needed to be done given I had an existing ceiling fan, that it needed a new "box" (I believe that was the correct terminology), and he quoted me the hours he thought it would take, (2) and the amount ($200). We set up the job for the very next day, at 9:30am. He called to say he was on his way, (he called as well for the initial appt., in fact, twice, once to say he was on his way, and then again to let me know he was running late as he was stuck in traffic). He showed up right on time, the job took 2 hours, and he charged me $200. He is technologically up-to-date, as I paid by check, and he was able to send my receipt to my email account. Upon finishing, I showed him a few other projects I needed and he said just let him know when. I would highly recommend Nick and would use him again anytime.

I received 3 quotes from different electricians for the job and Nick was the final guy. During the assessment process, I was blown away by how knowledgeable he was about building codes and wiring options. He was without a doubt the most knowledgeable electrician I spoke with and I couldn't believe it when his quote came in below everyone else's. I hired him right away and was so pleased that I did. As with any electric work, we expected a few surprises once the wall was actually opened up and Nick was great about explaining our options and helping us weight the costs and benefits of each choice. In the end, his guidance resulted in us being able to save an additional $200 because of a less labor intensive wiring choice. We found our electrician and I'll likely only work with him from now on for electric issues.
Description of Work: We were removing a wall that weekend so Nick came and removed and rerouted all the switches and outlets in that wall and installed a new outlet on the opposite wall in our kitchen.

My experience was excellent. Nick answered the phone when I called and scheduling the appointment was easy. The actual service provider, Jimmy was caught up in traffic on his way here the morning of the appointment and he called to let me know exactly where he was, and when he would be here, given the traffic jam he was in. When he arrived he was friendly, helpful, and professional. He was able to fix the problem quickly, explained what had happened, and in short order I had a functioning light fixture again.
Description of Work: The light switch wasn't working for an overhead fixture. He replaced the switch and checked the overhead fixture.

From the outset, I could tell that Mr. Tomaszczuk was not your typical contractor. As he notes on his listing, he answers his own phone rather than use a message service. Moreover, he answered his phone clearly identifying myself. I cannot tell you how many times I have called a contractor, only to be answered with an incomprehensible grunt. If you're reading this you probably have experienced it yourself. Anyway, the wall sockets in one room of our house went out, without tripping a circuit breaker. Nick scheduled an appointment with me the next day or the day after (sorry; I forgot). He needed to do some detective work to hunt down the problem. Along the way, he tightened some loose connections which could have become dangerous. In the basement, he found something truly frightening?a grounded neutral attached to the circuit breaker had apparently come loose, started arcing, and eventually had burned and melted away. He fixed this, expecting it to solve the problem I called about. It did not, in fact. After more detective work, he sorted out the problem. I also had two other issues I wanted him to look at. One was a light fixture in the kitchen bathroom which sometimes worked and sometimes didn't. While fixing this, he asked me if I wanted the outlet behind the fridge (sharing a wall with the light fixture) to be replaced with a three-prong outlet. I hadn't thought of this, but it was a great idea because it freed up the wall outlet the fridge was using. The third issue was a light over the kitchen sink, which is attached to the kitchen cabinetry. The wiring from the light fixture on the top of the cabinet looked to me a dangerous mess. Nick took a look at it, and said it was fine. Nick Tomaszczuk was friendly, thorough, and prompt. His rates were reasonable (N.B. I made up the spending figure for this review because I forgot what the job cost). He explained things and even laughed at my corny electricity jokes. I still have the burnt segment of the grounded neutral that he cut off. I am grateful to him for the excellent service and especially for putting right a dangerous situation.
Description of Work: restored power to dead wall sockets, tightened loose connections, reattached a grounded neutral to the circuit breaker which had come loose and burnt away (shudder), fixed a temperamental light, replaced a two-prong socket with a three-prong socket, reassured me that a kind of scary looking wiring situation was not dangerous

Nick was easy to reach by phone. He told me his his hourly rate so there was no need for an estimate visit. The amount would simply be based on how much time it would take to address the issue. He arrived promptly on the scheduled date. Nick tested the circuit in the attic to see which outlets and lights might be on the old wiring. As expected it was just one section. New wiring was run from a second floor service panel (circuit breakers) to the attic, where it was tied into previously updated wiring. A second circuit was also run to provide for possible future expansion. The work was thorough and neat. I was fully satisfied with the quality. Nick answered several questions that I raised about the electrical system in my house and was happy to do so. If I have any future electrical needs he'll be the first person I'll call.
Description of Work: I hired Tomaszczuk Electric to remove some old knob-and-tube type wiring. There was only a small section of my house with the old wiring so it was not an extensive re-wiring job.

After the estimate, we scheduled a date for the project, which was two days later at 8 am. And we also planned for him to evaluate the line that ran out to the garage, as it was disconnected when we bought the house. Nicholas and one of his employees showed up right on time and completed the job by 9. They were professional and courteous, working efficiently and cleaned up afterwards. They determined that the line that ran out to the garage had a short and would have to be replaced. At the time, I had a lot of projects for the new house and so we only discussed what would be involved with running out a new line. Nicholas was very flexible in making the project affordable. He offered to simply mark where the new line needed to be dug so that I could do the digging myself to reduce the labor charges involved. I have yet to get to running a new electrical line out to the garage so I can install a garage door opener, but when I do, I definitely will have Nicholas do the work for me and any other electrical jobs I may have in the future.
Description of Work: My wife and I had just bought a new house and I wanted to mount the TV above the fireplace, but there was no outlet anywhere close. So I looked around and found positive reviews of Nicholas. I was home that day when I called him and he had some free time in between jobs, so he came over about an hour later to give me a free estimate. It was a simple job to run a new dedicated line to the living room, 2 hours labor plus a few parts. He also recommended installing a whole house surge protector in the panel, which replaced the main powerswitch. It sounded like a great idea to protect all of the appliances and electronics in the house and it killed two birds with one stone.

Hired Nick to do some needed repairs to 1895 home we moved into recently. He came out to see what was needed, and then emailed me an estimate within a few days. I did not comparison shop, so I don't know if the price was reasonable, but other Angie's list reviews said they found him to be honest, and he was referred by the buyer's agent we used, so I assume it was close to what I needed to spend. One slightly unsettling thing at first, is that I contacted Nick the day before he was to do the work, and he said he was sending out Jimmy and a helper as he had a meeting to attend. As Angie's List reviews were for Nick's work, I wasn't sure that I was happy with this arrangement. As it turned out, Jimmy and associate were very professional and polite and worked efficiently to complete tasks. I heard Jimmy phone Nick at one point to consult on an issue. At the completion of the work, I asked Jimmy to go over what he did to fix the wiring issues, and he did so willingly and patiently. The work was completed for the estimated price at the time specified. I would definitely be comfortable recommending Nick Tomaszczuk to others needing residential electrical work.
Description of Work: Installed 4 programmable thermostats, replaced noisy exhaust fan in bath, installed dimmer swich in dining room, ran new electric line for gas range, made several adjustments to circuit breaker panel, corrected some reverse polarity issues. Price included cost of new fan, but not thermostats which we obtained from Masssave.
