Victor at AVD Electric came out and thoroughly checked out the electric panel. He corrected loose connections and the condition of all circuit breakers. Victor turned all the house lights on and turned on major appliances, and then waited to see if there were power issues. There were not so he concluded that the issue was resolved. Victor is very professional, knowledgeable and courteous. He clearly is a very accomplished electrician. He phoned me the next day to see if everything was working properly. I highly recommend AVD Electric, and would use them again for any electrical issues.
Description of Work: House power was going on and off and we needed to have the electric panel checked out and repaired.

He couldn’t fix it so instead he put in a new wire. Had to dig up the ground, drill a hole in the outside to route new wire. He put it on a light sensor, so I couldn’t turn it on or off. He never marked the breaker where he ran the new wire. I had to call him back to fix it. He them marked the breaker box and charged me $160 for the service call. What a rip-off! If he had marked the box initially, It wouldn’t have cost me $160.

Response from AVD Electric LLC
This repair was done THREE years ago, the outdoor light has been working for three years... This customer calls me now to schedule a service call because it now stopped working (three years later) And He is only available after 5pm because he works in NYC, After driving in heavy traffic around 5pm I make it to his home to repair the light again (three years later) and the light only stopped working because he over loaded the circuit...I charged him a service call So he gives me a F Review Now. Totally unreasonable. It’s very unfortunate that people use this platform to fabricate misleading complaints with the sole intent to harm small businesses. Please before you post reevaluate your intentions.

It went perfectly. Not only is Victor good at what he does he is honest, responsive, punctual, and truly cares about his work and his customers. If you need any electrical work, you have to call Victor at AVD. We are so happy we hired Victor/AVD and give a 100% recommendation.
Description of Work: We had a serious electrical problem which required us to call the electric company and, for safety reasons, we had to shut down the power to our home until we could find an electrician to help on a Saturday! Luckily we found AVD electric! Victor (the owner) came to our home on a Saturday and got our power back up that day but we knew we had to have major work done to restore to full capacity. Victor didn't try to sell us on the work--he simply made sure we were safe and had power. We decided to hire Victor/AVD to do the work we needed. He replaced our entire electrical panel and upgraded our service as well as add a cutover switch for our portable generator so we were prepared for possible outages in the future.

We tried to contact AVD electric first by form here. Then we called, spoke briefly, and he told us he'd call us back later that day. A few days later we called again and was told he'd call back but he hasn't yet in the past 4 days.

The electrician was very prompt, even called prior to give a more definitive timeframe, knowledgeable, efficient and helpful. He quickly found the issue, in this instance a loose connection and fixed the problem. He was very professional and polite. I will be calling him in the spring for a couple items at my home in Mahwah. Thank you again!
Description of Work: On New Year's Day my parents heat went out, PSE&G did not come until after 6 pm and identified that there was no power going to the furnace, something they did not handle. I called AVD around 6:30 pm (on a holiday) and my call was promptly answered and an appointment set for the next day between 8:30 am and 9:30 am.

Victor showed up on the day and time he said he would. He called before to confirm that we were still on because we set the appointment weeks ago because I was going away. He did a perfect job with a nice attitude. Very happy. Glad I have a local electrician to call on and to recommend to my neighbors.

Victor responded quickly, made an immediate appointment and came right at the promised time. He was very friendly, knew what he was doing and did it quickly, efficiently and in a very professional manner. While he was at our house, he took care of several minor electrical repairs as well. His price was very reasonable and we would use him again or recommend him without any reservation.

We were so happy to have found AVD Electric through Angie's List. Taking advantage of a special offer for a one hour service call, we contacted Victor one week ago and arranged to have him do some work. He arrived promptly at the time agreed upon, quickly repaired the wiring to our doorbell and replaced an entryway light switch. I then asked if he would replace an old smoke detector for me even though that hadn't been part of the original order. For the cost of the detector, he went to a local hardware store and did the installation quickly and efficiently. All work was completed within an hour including the time it took to go out and buy the detector. Victor was a pleasure to work with and I will certainly call on him again for any future electrical work.

I live in an old house where things are constantly breaking down. I had my washing machine going on the same line with a space heater and I guess that was too much for the electric line. Victor opens at 7am and I needed him to come early and he came promptly and fixed the issue fast and for a very reasonable price.

I still have not received a quote from Victor/AVD Electric. I called him to follow up and was told on 3/27 "I'll have it to you by Monday" Was not rude, nor enthusiastic about my questions of other work. Very clearly stated that he does not have interest in the little jobs. This call was for a 200 amp service upgrade, so this should have gotten some attention. If I never got a response when it's a bigger job and money they haven't gotten yet; What would be the response if something was wrong???
Description of Work: Came out to review work to be done, no further contact was made????

This customer is irrational. First he wanted a 300 amp electrical service which is unheard of for his size house, then he requested several other projects in his home that were overkill, for example running several direct electrical lines for outdoor power equipment because " he runs two outdoor leaf blowers at the same time" then he wanted to relocated his main electrical panel so "if the power went out he didn't have to walk around his big commercial DJ speakers". Spent one hour in his home reviewing all his request. He also stated that he threw out his previous electrician which he was about to "knock him out on this property" because he didn't like the way the contractor was talking to him and that he was very capable of doing this because he was a boxer... I still proceed to send him an estimate and never heard back from him.

It turned out pretty well. They came out a couple of months later after we purchased it at our request. It was a very good experience. He actually listened to what we were trying to do. We ended up getting something else from him instead of the transfer switch as in the deal. We got a whole house interlock system because that was better match for what we were trying to do. It was great, fantastic. The pricing was competitive. He was cool guy and I would use him again.
