Very well. He came and replaced the switch. BTW - He replaced it a lot quicker than I would have done.
Description of Work: If you are looking for a good electrical contractor, I would recommend KRANTZ ELECRIC in Fairlawn NJ. The owner was at our house back in 2016 installing outdoor sensor lights, a new porch light and upgrading our kitchen lights from Halogen to LED’s. He was back at our house in 2020 installing a new overhead kitchen fan and replacing older bathroom lights. We called him again at the end of August 2022 to replace a bathroom switch. Late one night, the switch operating our overhead lights blew. It was too late to go to a local hardware store and I didn’t have the time to go shopping the next day; so I called KRANTZ, told him the problem and he came to replace the switch. He is a licensed electrician who provides reliable and quality service. He is also friendly and professional. He has been to our house three times and will call him again, if necessary.

We were having construction work at our house and decided to include some electric upgrading. I called Krantz, told David what we needed; he came over promptly and provided us with an estimate. The price was reasonable and I signed the proposal; he came shortly thereafter; accomplished the work quickly in one day in a very professional manner. I gave his name and business cards to some of my friends in case they needed a good electrician. Note: The work was done in the beginning of the year and I should have mentioned it sooner in Angie’s List
Description of Work: The job entailed: Installing 2 OH outdoor sensors Installing a new LED OH fixture on our porch Replacing old halogen lights in our kitchen with new LED’s Replacing 2 old switches and installing two new splice boxes

He answered the phone when I called, didn't have to go through voice mail phone tag. Great start. We needed the work done quickly and he came to solve the problem the same day. The work was done quickly, competently and with professionalism. I also appreciated David's friendly manner. Problem solved, no drama, fair price. Perfect.
Description of Work: Fixed a variety of problems: replaced a lamp, replaced a burnt out dimmer switch, restored power to a dead line which included tracing where the problem was. The impact to us was that (a) the dining room chandelier had stopped to work and the outside Christmas lights were off. Not good when you are hosting a Christmas dinner the next day.

I was extremely happy with every aspect of this job. David arrived on schedule, he and his assistant were quite neat, they spread drop cloths and swept up after the work was done. When the mount I bought for my flat screen TV did not fit properly he volunteered to find the correct one and purchase it for me. David researched the mount that evening, bought it early the next morning and was back to install it later that morning. I felt he really went above and beyond my expectations. I will definitely call him when I need electrical work done again.
Description of Work: David removed a ceiling fan and replaced it with another fixture, installed 2 ceiling fan lights where there were no existing fixtures. Moved a door bell, and replaced the out door ring button. Wired and hung a flat screen TV. Added a second switch in 3 bathrooms to allow exhaust fan and light to work independently.

He needs to return when the snow has melted around the perimeter lights. But he made the electrical situation in our home safe until Mother Nature intervenes and melts the snow. GREAT SERVICE, GREAT ENCOUNTER!!! Dave is and quot;old schooland quot;——prompt, professional and experienced.
Description of Work: The perimeter lights around our circular driveway, as well as the Post lamp, all went out with a puff of smoke from the electrical switch plate and timer inside the house. I was worried that the house might burn down because of an electrical fire. I called our electrician (Trass Electric——selected from Angie's List) who never responded that night. I called again early the next morning with no response. So I went on-line and typed in "Emergency Electrician". I identified several companies, but eliminated all those companies that started with an "A", e.g. allamerican, AAA, allstate, etc. because they are never any good. My eye caught Krantz Electric and they had a cell phone number for emergencies. Well, that was good enough for me. I called at 0735 hours and surprisingly someone answered. He took the necessary information about the problem and my location and told me he would be at my home in an hour. Well, you can only imagine my surprise when precisely at 0835 hours, Dave from Krantz Electric drove up to my front door. He went right to work to diagnose the problem. Unfortunately, there was still a lot of snow all around the perimeter lights, which hampered his ability to find out the exact problem. It appears that the snow and water had entered the wiring outside in the perimeter lights (which he found were now corroded over the past 30 years) and were causing the electrical short. I also found out that the perimeter lights were not installed properly in the first place. Dave and Krantz Electric rate an "A++++++".

Mr Krantz did an excellent job. He handled all aspects of the experience very professionally. From the initial contact, his inspection of the damaged condition, communication and explanation about the damaged electrical service, returning to complete the work as promised, on time, on budget . I could not ask for better service. Please note,This is in the wake of the super storm Sandy. I highly recommend you consider using his services.
Description of Work: Replace storm damaged Electrical Service. Removed damaged service wire, meter pan, breaker panel. Replaced/installed service wire, meter pan, breaker panel. Installed new grounding as needed for current building codes. Attained required permits and inspections.

David Krantz is a consummate professional and gets right to work. He knows his trade. He replaced the fixture. Again, I did not have to wait more than 15 minutes for him to come over and replace the light fixture. He is now the family's electrician. I would not use anyone else.
Description of Work: David Krantz came over the Sunday after Hurricane Irene and removed a light fixture that had filled up with water from a leak in the chimmney.

Great.
Description of Work: The company representative gave free advise on electrical line voltage problem we were having. That fixed the problem and saved us money. Dave recommended that we call the electric company to fix an outside line problem. This was the solution.

The guy Krantz sent out was a real nice fellow. Plus, he did real good work. He took the time to do all of his wiring in piping. I liked to see that and it told me he cared about the quality of the work he was doing, which is never a bad thing. I just was impressed in general. I would highly recommend the services of this fine institution to others in my local area.
Description of Work: Krantz increased our electrical capabilities. They installed enough power so we have the ability to run 250 amps of power in our home at one time without burning fuses. I will say my home is 1600 square feet.

I would never call this company again. I felt like I was way over charged. He did something without asking and when I questioned him about it, he got an attitude with me. Under no circumstances did I think he should have gotten an attitude with me. I had scheduled the appointment a couple of weeks before and I called that morning to double check because I had not heard anything from them. Two brothers run the company and the man that I spoke to had no idea what I was talking about, but he said that he could just come out and do the work, since his brother was already out working on another job.
Description of Work: They installed a ceiling fan in my kitchen and changed a couple of wall switches. They also did some electrical work on our flood lights outside, so that they would not come on during the daytime.

Response from KRANTZ ELECTRIC INC
Member was given an estimate for the work . She must have needed a UL approved support box to install the fan which is difficult to install when there is another floor above . She also got a discount for having a few other jobs to be repaired . We never pressure any customers into any work . I don't treat my customers that way . Sometimes people think you have a truck and tools and your in business , well not in the state of New Jersey. I have many repeat customers and a lot of referrals . I also you know you can't please everyone . They have no idea what it takes takes do the job right .
