This is a belated entry. We bought an 1885 Victorian in July 2007. The work was performed in 2007 from July through November. I give the crew a lot of credit. This was a challenge of a house - old plaster and wood lath walls and ceilings. We were not gutting the house to rehab so they did not have open walls and had to be careful cutting holes, pulling wires throughout the house. To make it more of a challenge, we moved into the house in mid July. Weston Electric does not have an army of electricians and had to service their other customers as well. The project would have moved more quickly if Weston Electric had been able to put a crew on our site 5 days a week instead of 2 or 3 days as was the case most of the time. That being said, having a few electricians working in the house at a time, hitting an specific area of the house each week over the few months made it possible for us to co exist. Had we been able to close on the house sooner and move in later it would have been a much easier situation for all involved. All in all, we are satisfied with the work that was done. Thanks Jeff and please thank your guys too - we hope you all are well.
Description of Work: Removed existing 100A and installed new 200A service and breaker panel + two sub panels. Pulled out or disconnected existing knob and tube wiring. Installed new wire and back boxes to new receptacles, switches and lighting locations throughout a 3500 sq ft house. Installed radiant electric heat panels (owner provided) in sections of home that were previously unheated.

The owner showed up on time to give me an estimate of time and materials. I got a call from the office shortly thereafter to set up an appointment. Two electricians showed up promptly at 8am and worked the entire day. Towards the end, they called in another person to help finish up the work. They had cleaned up after themselves and collected all the trash (but seem to have forgotten to have taken it to the trash bin, which was no big deal). They were very polite and attentive to their work and took great pains to make sure that their work looked good.
Description of Work: Reinstalled chandelier, several sconces (including new wiring), 2 GFI outlets, other miscellaneous repairs in the house.

We've used a number of electricians in the past and this was a welcome change. Our biggest problem was finding someone to treat our small repair jobs with the same respect as larger, more lucrative jobs. Weston Electric did just that. They promptly returned my initial call, scheduled service for the following day, showed up on time, quickly diagnosed the problems, and fixed them. I felt their price was fair for the work performed.
Description of Work: Repaired a light at the end of our driveway that had a broken connection and replaced a bedroom outlet.

Very responsive. Answered phone instead of answering machine. Had an electrician over within the hour. Diagnosed problem quickly (bad splice in the old wire) and repaired it successfully. Professional, responsive, and cleaned up after themselves. This was not a difficult problem to solve, but they did the job quickly and well.
Description of Work: Had a faulty wire from thermostat to furnace that needed to be checked and replaced.

One thing that I really appreciate that is when I call I get a real person. It is not a recording and that to me is very good within a company. They were professional and hard working and I would recommend them to other people any time. They are great.

The workers showed up on time. They were polite, neat and answered all my questions. They spent awhile trying to locate a way to put in a new circuit to the top floor and it looked like it would require tearing across the plaster ceiling so they came up with the dedicated 20 amp circuit as a work around.
Description of Work: Install dedicated 20 amp circuit in living room and installed a switch for attic fan after replacing the thermostat on attic fan.

I was very pleased with the work. During the quoting process, he made recommendations regarding number of lights and placement taking into consideration furniture layout and reflection. They arrived on time, performed the work in the said time and the bill was slightly less than the estimate. They used drop cloths and hand held vacuums so there was no mess.

Great experience-- returned our initial call (unlike 3 others electricians), fixed the problem quickly, installed a temporary solution for us, then did the final fix. Answered the phone every time and came when they said they would.
Description of Work: We had a dimmer switch continually blow out, and after unsuccessfully trying to fix it myself, I called in Weston Electric. They diagnosed a faulty fixture, replaced it with a temporary one, replaced the dimmer switch, and then came back after we purchased a replacement fixture and installed that for us.

Jeff was on time for the estimate and knowledgeable, answering my many questions and explaining the potential difficulties he might encounter during the various installations. He was extremely thorough and I had an estimate within a few days. His associate, Norm, arrived right on time to do the work. It was obvious that he and Jeff had a long discussion about what was to be done. The job was completed within the specified time frame and under budget. One hole was mismeasured and came through the floor, but Norm called me and was very up front about it, taking full responsibility for the error. Jeff sent out a floor company and they did a great repair job. Jeff followed up with me throughout the process, making sure I was happy with the electrical work and the repairs on the floor. This is one of the most professional companies I have ever dealt with. The work they did was top quality, their customer service is excellent, and they now have a customer for life!
Description of Work: Installed recessed lighting, bathroom exhaust fan, and several new outlets; updated existing outlets; fixed doorbell. Provided all supplies, including the light fixtures (the same high-quality lights I planned to buy from the lighting showroom) and the exhaust fan.

I've known Jeff as an acquaintance for about 6-8 years. I mentioned to him in a few weeks I needed more light. He told me to call the office. I called the office on 02/01/06 and he never called back. I ran into him on Saturday and said, "Gee, Jeff, I haven't heard from you" and he said "Rome wasn't built in a day!" I thought that was unprofessional.

THEY ALSO COINCIDENTALLY WERE HERE WHILE OUR TELEPHONE WAS NOT WORKING AND THEY TESTED THE OUTSIDE CONNECTION FOR ME. VERY PERSONABLE PEOPLE.

I HAD A MYSTERIOUS CIRCUIT BREAKER THAT KEPT TURNING OFF POWER TO MY KITCHEN AND GARAGE. THEY WENT THROUGH EACH SWITCH TO FIND THE ORIGIN ONLY TO FIND THAT IT WAS A LOOSE WIRE HANGING IN THE GARAGE. I APPRECIATE THEIR THOROUGH NATURE IN FINDING THE CAUSE WITHOUT HAVING TO RIP APART MY WALLS.

WHEN THEY SHOWED UP TO INSTALL THE FAN, THE WORKER HAD A HELPER. THEY DID NOT INSTALL A WHOLE NEW FAN, AND USED PART OF THE OLD FAN. I ALSO NOTICED THAT THEY DID NOT TIGHTEN THE SCREWS AND HAD ONLY INSTALLED A MOTOR AND DID NOT INSTALL COWLING. I WAS A LITTLE TAKEN BACK BY THE PRICE AND REALIZED THAT I PAID $90 EACH FOR THE WORKER AND THE HELPER. I WOULD QUESTION THE PRICE BEFORE I HIRE THE COMPANY AGAIN.
