He did a fine job and we have used him twice and will use him again when we need it
Description of Work: Fred is a terrific, smart electrician who tells you what he's doing and why. A good choice. He helped us with several things, hooking up an electric stove that needed a special plug and later fixing a front gate zapped by lightning.

It went well, I was so happy and very pleased he was able to find and fix the problem. Lost the power to those rooms on Saturday called on Wednesday and spoke to Fred and he was able to come out today. Was really worried and stressing over it but from the start to the finish he was polite, kind, and professional. He explained and showed me what the problem was. I plan to recommend him to all my friends and will call him again when I need something done. Thanks again Fred.
Description of Work: Lost electricity to several outlets in three bedrooms and heat pump. Found the outlet that was bad and causing the problem.

A-1 electrician! Prompt, professional, knowledgeable...kitchen range outlet turned out to be complicated-we bought a new range at an appliance store but when it was delivered the installers realized there was a problem with the outlet. They suggested we call a licensed electrician and Ewire came out the same day. Also fixed a few other lighting problems. We would definitely recommend Fred of Ewire and are planning to ask him to work on another electrical project. Pricing was excellent for quality of work done and the time involved.
Description of Work: Fixed recessed lighting in kitchen, repaired circuit breaker, repaired and rewired kitchen range outlet, replaced outdoor spotlight bulbs high under eaves, inspected electric ignition on gas fireplace.

Fred is excellent! It is tough to find an electrician who is reasonable with the price and yet he took care of everything in a timely manner. He is very intelligent and took care of all of the failed electrical needs without a lot of fuss. He will definitely be the person I will be calling if I have an electrical concern in the future. He knows his craft.

Fred's a great guy and a delight to have around while he works. Everything he did was thoughtfully and expertly tackled. He's knowledgeable and thorough and careful. He cleans up any mess that results from his labors and he's a smart problem-solver, because not every electrical need is a simple or textbook one. I'll be calling on him again for another round of electrical repairs and fixes.
Description of Work: Fred responded on the very day I called him, if I remember correctly, and was able to get started on my long list of electrical needs. It was not surprising, by the way, that my list was longer than the time that first afternoon allowed, and he was able to return on the next business day. He replaced faulty ballasts in two fluorescent fixtures, replaced a faulty dimmer light switch, installed a sturdier covered brass floor plug, installed two sconce light fixtures, installed a ceiling fan with a light kit, diagnosed and corrected a faulty bathroom exhaust fan, and replaced a problematic light switch that had always been stiff. His extra bonus action was to track down and install a locking switch for an outdoor security light so that I'd no longer have an issue with guests inadvertently cutting it off.

Frank was fantastic. He showed up a few days before to review the work we wanted completed. He offered suggestions, most of all of which we took, and discussed what our options were. Additionally, he gave us specific part numbers for materials we could pick up at our local big box store, i.e., Lowes Home Improvement and Home Depot. That was not required, but he just offered that as it would save us on parts cost. We quickly decided to contract his services. He dutifully came a few days later, did the work and had the good nature to let me hang out with him while he did some of it so I could ask questions. He's very personable and is very well educated about his profession. He is a very impressive electrician.
Description of Work: Frank installed four new outlets in the house as well as identify and replace a faulty AFCI breaker. He also added an AFCI breaker to comply with code at the time the house was built, which had since been replaced with a non-AFCI breaker.

Fred arrived right on time, explained what he was doing, cleaned the area where he was working, and was willing to stay later on a hot Friday afternoon to complete the work I wanted done. So far, I am very pleased with the quality of his work and would highly recommend him. Another positive for me was that my communication was with him and he did the work. Overall, A+ for Fred's report card!

Fred came over the same day that we talked on the phone and had the work done in no time. He took down the old fixture and replaced it with one I had purchased earlier. All of the outside wiring on the old fixture had corroded and we were not sure if the wiring leading into the house was safe or not. Fred checked that out for us and let us know it was only the wiring that had been exposed to the elements that had corroded. The work did not take very long and he charged accordingly.
Description of Work: Replaced an overhead outside light fixture at our front entryway.

I embarked on a kitchen remodel in May of 2014 and have finally completed it a year later. Throughout the process, Fred from e-Wire was an important contributor. My house was built in the 1920's and there were some very sub-par renovations over time. Not only is Fred a great electician, he is somewhat of a sleuth, it was very difficult to figure out what all of the different "updates" were over the years, but when finally finished we were able to remove a lot of old, unsafe, not to code wiring and replace it and bring it all up to code. Fred is very meticulous, pays attention to details, is very neat and orderly, and is very personable (we had many interesting conversations as he worked away). He also is very willing to talk through different options, estimated costs of each, and pros/cons of each so that I could make an informed decision. Over the year, Fred probably made 6 trips to my house, he was very willing to work around my busy schedule. Fred also has a reputation with the local inspections department, during both the rough in and final inspection, the inspectors knew Fred, knew that he doesn't cut corners, and knew the work was done correctly, as a result my inspections were quick and without incident

Fred was so professional and was able to find the problems as to why the dryer kept blowing the circuit breaker. He explained everything to me and showed me each of the parts that had to be replaced and why. His price was fantastic! I will tell my friends and family to use this company for all of their electrical needs!!!!
Description of Work: I can't tell you how pleased I am to have found eWire Electric company. Fred answered the phone immediately and was at the house within 2 hours. He replaced the dryer outlet and put in new circuit breakers that had gone bad. He also fixed switches on the wall that kept tripping the whole house circuit breaker.
