Although they weren't the lowest bidder for this job, I had the most confidence in them to get the job done right, and they did an outstanding job overall. I was very impressed with their professionalism and meticulousness, as they left no stone unturned. They actually offered to come back in the near future to replace the light switch cover in the kitchen with one that matches better with our backsplash colors. They were also very patient with all of my questions, and were quite personable. I would highly recommend them to anyone who doesn't mind compensating accordingly for a company that has a very high standard of excellence, and delivers top quality service.
Description of Work: Derek and Nick installed a heavy chandelier at the top of our vaulted ceiling, which they did flawlessly, and replaced dining room and hallway lights, completely rewired and replaced our old kitchen counter lights with LED tape lighting, and installed whole house surge protection.

Derek took care of the tv wall mount and feeds without any problem. He has obviously done his share. Brandon replaced/installed two (2) bathroom fans we had purchased without any worries. He too has done his fair share of installations. Both gentlemen were professional, knowledgeable, punctual, and maintained their workspace. We could not have been more pleased. We failed to have the third bathroom vent in time for this appointment, so we scheduled one when the part arrived. Another timely appointment was made and Johnathan arrived as scheduled and performed his work as diligently as we experienced prior. Hat's off to all three of the professionals and, again, thank you for your excellent services performed. We will not hesitate in calling Buckingham Electric for any/all future electrical needs.
Description of Work: We had one tv bracket installed, including wiring, and three (3) bathroom fans replaced

Derek and Nick were excellent! I was given a window of between noon and 4:00 PM. I received a call at about 11:45 AM and they were here at noon. They mixed work with pleasantries and I enjoyed their company. The work was done quickly and correctly. There was some minor dust on the floor under where they worked and they wanted to clean it up! I thanked them, but told them I had put off cleaning my whole place knowing there would be some dust, but I didn't expect them to want to clean it up. The price was very fair, actually less than I hoped for. I even received a $25 discount for being an Angie's List customer. I will hire Buckingham Electric again for any job that comes up.

Derek and Nick were polite, thorough and friendly. It was clear from the outset they knew exactly what they were doing. They wasted no time in getting the job done and left the areas as clean as when they arrived. All boxes and old fixtures were taken with them to be donated to Habitat for Humanity. Very pleased and impressed!

They fixed the outlet , told me my breaker box was ok, and told me the pump on my hot tub was probably bad . Maybe I would hire again, but the “deal” was very deceptive .
Description of Work: The deal was for $25 worth of $50 electrical services, but they charged me $150 (minus $25,) plus tax ! All I wanted them to do was fix 1 outlet, but they still charged me for a service call. . They looked at my breaker box and hot tub briefly to spend more time at my house .

As above, the service was scheduled quickly due to a cancellation they had, the two fellows were very professional; very expensive.
Description of Work: Punctual and professional. However, I felt it was over priced; had one ceiling light fixture changed (box and wiring were there it just had to be connected) approx 5 minutes, one ceiling fan replaced. In all, 45 minutes for $242.00. Ouch!
