Bob came and fixed an outlet that was replaced by a previous electrical contractor. The previous electrician tried to 'fake' the repair he did for a 2 prong outlet to a 3 prong outlet. Bob identified the problem and repaired it correctly. The company scheduled the service the day after I called, which was crucial since this issue would have impacted the house closing.

Andrew came to our house to speak to check it out. Since the lights went back on that morning, he said to contact him after they go out again and he would return to investigate. The lights went out several days later and I called his office. It took several weeks of calling and leaving messages for him to finally get back to me. He sent Bob over to work on the problem. Bob believed that the problem was due to a failed junction box, but was unable to determine where it was located. After a brief discussion, we came to the conclusion that it would make more sense to rewire the first floor rather than breaking ceilings to find the hidden junction box. Bob said he would speak to Andrew who would create a proposal for rewiring. I waited two weeks and sent Andrew an email. Andrew responded that he was waiting to hear from Bob and get back to me. That was last week. Yesterday, there was an envelope in my mailbox from ARC, and I thought: OK, here is the proposal and we can move forward! But instead of an estimate, I received a bill for over $200 for Bob's services! I find this to be very insulting! I immediately left a message on Andrew's cell, but he has not returned my call. I first contacted ARC on July 3; it is now July 28!
Description of Work: Several lights on the first floor go out intermittently and remain out for several days or weeks. Needed to find out cause of problem and repair.

Andrew and his ARC Electric team were fast, professional and friendly. I would recommend them to anybody and intend to hire them again in the future.
Description of Work: ARC Electric upgraded our home service to 200 amps with proper grounding in addition to installing new outlets, attic and closet lights and they repaired a busted outlet. Additionally, they installed an overhead fan in the master bedroom. On the data side, they ran telephone communications and ethernet communications to our home office from the junction box.

I called ARC Electric based upon some suggestions I saw on Facebook and on their reviews on Angie's List. The initial call was very pleasant and they booked an appointment for an estimate the next morning. Though Andrew had to move the appointment a bit later due to delay from an earlier job, he called us from his cellphone to let us know AND the office called a short time later to confirm that he was still coming and to be sure the later time was OK. The estimate process went very well... Andrew asked thoughtful questions about what we needed and provided a written estimate for the work. He then mentioned that if we did want to move forward, he could begin the work that day and likely complete it on the following day. We called back to commit to the work, and Andrew said he would go to his supplier for the materials and would come to start work that afternoon. Andrew showed up on time and had a colleague with him. He said this would allow them to complete ALL of the work on that day...which they did. Their work was efficient and neat. Andrew called me over to show me the work and ask me questions a few times through the process. He explained how he cleaned up some bad wiring left by an earlier contractor and how we could upgrade/expand our service in the future because of the way he implemented the solution. All the work was done in a few hours and they left the space neater than it was before. All-in-all, Andrew and all of the other ARC Electric employees I had contact with were a pleasure to speak and deal with... I would not hesitate to use them again and would enthusiastically recommend them to friends and neighbors!

Andrew came by to give me a quote and the price was more than fair. The day before the work was to be done Andrew confirmed via e-mail and told me that Bob would be doing the work. Bob showed up on time, put down drop clothes, listened to my concerns about the installation and took the time to answer my questions before he started the work. While he was doing the installation I had some additional questions which he was more than happy to answer. When Bob was done he walked me through how to use the interlock kit and even suggested where I could get a twist lock cable to hook up the generator. Bob cleaned up and the place was spotless, even came in a second time to make sure he didn't miss anything. Would absolutely use them again.
Description of Work: Installed interlock kit for generator and outdoor hookup. Installed GFCI outlet.

Aside from the above surprises ...GREAT
Description of Work: Had to replace my electric panel with new panels and add a panel to operate the new generator we bought for the house. While undoing the old panel they found that a number of wire coating had been chewed. They took down a portion of our garage ceiling and found dead mice and extensive droppings. A one day job became a 3 day job, they worked from 8 am till 7:30pm, made sure we had electricity the first night and continued a long day of work the second day. They were knowledgeable, courteous and responded rapidly to our multiple concerns. Andrew the owner was spectacular and John, one of his associates was great.

Job was quoted after Andrew Depuis visited my residence on a Saturday. He informed me of the items I would need to replace the damaged post lamp. I got a new top for the post and bought a fixture for the front porch to match. He had one of his crew come the next Saturday to install. The job was done perfectly. New lights work just right. On at dusk and off at dawn.

Post Hurricane Sandy I have been working to correct a lot of what was done to get through that experience. Last on the list was to undo the "jerry rigging" I used to get generator power to my gas furnace during the two weeks we had no mains power. I needed a professional to ensure I correctly hooked the furnace back up to the mains service board. I called Andy in the morning and he popped by that afternoon. It was a simple task in the end. Andy was very courteous and gave numerous useful pointers whilst working on my furnace and replaced a breaker that had the wrong ampage. Andy was kind enough to reduce his minimum call-out fee for the job. ARC electric will continue to be my electricians of choice from this day forward, and I will likely need them back soon.
