D & R Electric did an exceptional job. The work was done by Nicholas and Mark, two men who knew what they were doing and did it incredibly well. I can't say enough about their work. We had a mess going because of having used ADT and Vivint for monitored security - which was a disaster. We had two other companies before we called D & R Electric. They took down the equipment which didn't work; rtepaired the mess left by the security companies and it was extensive; installed three wall sconces - two of which had to be rewired and they were not easy being over 100 years old; they installed a door bell which worked unlike two installed before they arrived which did not work and one installed by Vivint left holes in my historical home which insects were going in and out of having a great time because the bell was installed by an unlicensed person. Everything I asked Mark and Nicholas to do was done with dispatch and elegance. We will call them again and have noted to homes we help manage that this is the electrical company of our choice and one they should use exclusively.
Description of Work: Installed three antique wall sconces which needed to be rewired; picked out elegant light bulbs which fit the fixtures; removed security equipment - some of which didn't work which was installed by ADT and Vivint; put up a working front door bell after other companies failed in doing that correctly; helped me figure out how to have that security on my mobil phone. it is wonderful to have a working door bell again; repaired a wall switch which was broken.

was able to book electrician visit within a few days. extremely nice person showed up exactly on time and carefully examined the two ceiling light fixtures i had questions about. i opted to replace one of them, and bought the one standard fixture they had with them, for a very reasonable price. while replacing, electrician updated the wiring in the ceiling and explained what he was seeing/doing as he went along.
Description of Work: examined two ceiling light fixtures for safety concerns; replaced one with new fixture they brought, confirmed second one okay.

When a hanging, single-bulb light fixture sparked when the pull chain was tugged, I called D & R Electric to evaluate what was needed. An electrician came to inspect the fixture and the wiring in the ceiling box. He quickly determined the problem was a broken wire in the cord going from the light socket to the ceiling box that caused the spark and fried the inside of the socket. It took about 15 minutes to diagnose the problem and remove the fixture. He took the fixture back to the workshop to re-wire with a new threaded socket that I provided. When the fixture was re-wired, another electrician spent about 15 minutes to connected the cord to the ceiling box and re-hang the fixture. I don't know the extent of effort at the workshop to install a new socket and wire in the chain of the fixture, but everything works as good as new. The electricians were very efficient and professional. My only negative experience was the difficulty contacting the company by phone. They use an answering service and after leaving messages on several days that resulted in calls back with phone messages when I was unavailable, I tried using email through Angie's List. That worked much better and within a short time we came to a mutually-convenient appointment time. The final price seemed a bit high, but given two visits and work in the workshop, it does not seem unreasonable. This was the first time I had used D & R, but I would consider using them again.
Description of Work: Removed, rewired, and rehung a hanging, single-bulb light fixture that had sparked.

The service was performed as scheduled. The electrician reviewed the problem and investigated the issue properly before we came up with a plan of attack. We originally thought it may be just removing an errant wire, but we found that it was slightly more complicated and the full circuit needed to be properly moved and rerouted from the closest junction box. The job was completed cleanly, properly, and quickly.
Description of Work: fix electrical issue stemming from an inspection, move common circuit from individual unit's circuit box to common box

Excellent. Person on the phone was pleasant, courteous and responsive to my need for a particular date and time for the service. Service men (2) arrived at the specified time with stepladder, replacement unit, and took kit. Quickly replaced the defective smoke detector with a more appropriate unit than we had purchased, explaining the advantages, and suggested returning ours for a refund, which we did. Gave excellent advice on our questions about the electrical outlets, leading to the suggestion of not proceeding with any work on that score at present, with which we agreed. In all, a brief and very productive visit. The men were pleasant to interact with, highly professional, and interested in giving their best advice as opposed to promoting unnecessary additional service. A very good experience, and certainly a company I would use again.
Description of Work: Requested replacement of smoke and CO2 detector wired to condo building system, plus advice on converting old outlets to three-prong.

D & R was great to work with. There was a small delay in getting the work done due to inclement weather (Water and Electricity do not mix), but when the weather cleared, the work was completed in one day and the job they did was great.
Description of Work: My house had Fuses and was rated for 100 Amps and required an upgrade for insurance purposes. D & R replaced the Fuses with Circuit Breakers and increased the service to 200 A.

Joe ryan and his crew were fantastic. I called for the work to be done and Joe let me know when they would arrive. They arrived earlier than expected and worked continually without breaking until the job was done. They are clean, polite and very professional. A definite re-use over and over again.
Description of Work: Our commercial property needed a reformed emergency lighting system with battery back-up. Joe and his crew worked out a proposal for us which fit perfectly with our plan. The D & R crew did the job and were gone leaving the area worked clean as if they weren't even there. The work performed was quick and well done with no problems even with Testings. A perfect crew from a perfect company.

Dand R electric was recommended to me by a number of people. The manager/receptionist (?) Renee was very nice and helpful. However, the electrician who showed up, came an hour late and didn't even apologize, just said "oh" when I opened the door and told him he was an hour late. And he showed up without the necessary parts to do the job. Then when I got the bill it was almost twice as much as quoted cause the guy had to stay late cause (1) he was late and (2) didn't have the required materials. I was able to get the owner/manager to lower the price back down to the original quote, but I was definitely a little put off by their professionalism.
Description of Work: Installation of some bathroom light fixtures and a new dimmer in the kitchen.
