Description of Work: Mr. Wetmore and one of his trainee/employees removed an old fan/light fixture in the living room and replaced it and added a dimmer. They did a fine job. | My wife and I have known "Billy" Wetmore for about 30 years, ever since he came one Christmas to our Gaithersburg home and used his truck extension to place the bulbs on our very large blue spruce. And we have seen him every year or so as as electrical tasks have emerged: he's very fair in pricing and he's someone we always enjoy working with. As a bonus, he understands the electrical stuff in older houses, like our fuse box and he knows how to fix it. I recommend Billy to you.

Electrician was very professional and completed the job within an hour. I used this company before to install additional kitchen outlets above the cabinets to facilitate LED under counter lighting. That job also went very well. The only issue I have is with the last invoice. I was told over the phone this job is considered a service call and would cost $110.00. The invoice was $175.00 plus parts.
Description of Work: Replaced outdoor outlets (upgraded to CGFI) located in back of the house on basement and main levels.

Terrific. After a home break-in that occurred in our neighborhood, we decided to install some motion lighting around the perimeter of our home for security purposes. On the recommendation of a neighbor we asked Billy to provide the estimate. His crew were terrific and installed 5 LED security motion lights around the house - wired through our attic - plus controls for the lights within our home. After a week - we noticed that one of the lights on the side of the house remained "on" all night if it tripped, and further the motion light above the garage was a bit too harsh in brightness. Since it is the one most frequently tripped everytime we came in and out of the garage we decided to change it from a bright LED to one with adjustable bulbs. Billy's team came out right away to adjust the motion light sensor on the malfunctioning light, and exchanged the LED light over the garage to a bulb based light. Their crew even diagnosed an issue I was having with a broken ceiling fan in our kitchen while they were here. We could not be happier with the results - and feel much more secure with the security lights around the perimeter of our home to compliment the ADT Security system we have in place. I would hire Wetmore Electric again and we have recommended them to our neighbors.
Description of Work: Installed security motion lights around perimeter of my home, installed automatic timer for outdoor lighting.

It went great. He had two young men who were apprentices: he supervised every move they made.
Description of Work: I have used Bill Wetmore forever, starting, I guess, almost 20 years ago, to do the various electrical procedures and repairs required by our house in Gaithersburg, now 40 years old. He has been particularly helpful correcting problems which have arisen with the house's aluminum wiring (which was allowed by our county during a brief window in the 1970's.) The first time that I randomly called Bill from the phone book, he came and did some electrical repair, but my wife immediately recruited him to return with his truck crane and use it to string Christmas lights on a blue spruce tree that had outgrown our reach. He was big for the challenge and he loved doing it, We've been friends ever since. This month he replaced 2 house plugs, one of which had become suddenly hot (the surrounding wall too was hot) when I was running the vacuum cleaner (the aluminum wire curse). He also checked one other plug in another room. Bill Wetmore has proven many times that he is a very competent and professional electrician and that I can count on him to be here when I need him. Finally, I've always felt that his pricing was fair and that he absolutely stood behind any service performed.

Great, as usual. He replaced the timer, which he had on order, and asked which color I preferred for the switch, as they now come with 3 colors. Noticing the others in the network were white (they didn't have different colors when I got them originally), he said he'd order (free) replacements for those to match. Regarding the light fixture, the box was already in the wall from a prior fixture (I re-did a powder room), and even though the fixture is very simple, it wouldn't lay flat against the wall if simply attached to the box ( the gap from the wall would have been about 1/8and quot;, which would have been visible). That was unacceptable to him (and he knew it would be to me) and he re-worked the installation so it is flush. He then went to install the smoke detectors, and I forgot to remind his assistant when I called that one was high in the foyer and he would need a tall ladder. Not a problem: he used my extension ladder, wrapped the end in a towel (he was going to use his sweatshirt) so it wouldn't dirty the wall, and changed it. He did the rewiring to move the outlet and put in the new one, tout de suite, and will return when the cabinet is installed and the wires are pulled through with the actual outlet plugs. Quick, efficient, pleasant, never a problem. There are no problems for William Wetmore, only solutions.
Description of Work: I have used Wetmore many times over the years. This time, Mr. Wetmore came himself to replace a light timer (part of a multi-timer system), replace/update my smoke detectors and to install a light fixture. He also moved an outlet and put in another one because I'm having cabinetry put in my computer room even though this wasn't scheduled.
