Description of Work: Converted all of my outlets from older 2-prong style to grounded outlets, and a few to GFI protection. Work was very neat and well done. He was even early and sat outside in his van, not wanting to disturb me since it was early in the morning.

Description of Work: Removal of old non-working intercom unit from kitchen and trouble shoot intermittently functional pantry light. To be fair, he was honest about the fact he didn't know what the step-down relay was when he found it (my house is old). When I found it online, he called his supplier to see if they carried it, then offered to go get it. He neglected to tell me he was charging full rate for his travel time or I would have picked it up while he worked on removing the intercom. The bottom line is that the work was done well, took much longer than I expected and was more costly than I expected. I would use AVD again if I know the work is straightforward.

Customer purchased a promotional deal we ran during the winter. She immediately contacted me and requested an emergency service call. Over the phone I provided technical assistance and eased her worries of what she believed was a possible fire hazard. Upon my arrival for our scheduled service call, I proceeded to troubleshoot her electrical issue. Unfortunately, the customer misinformed me of the fact that someone else had failed at correcting this issue and in fact made it worst. Therefore causing me additional time to identify and correct her electrical issue. After identifying the electrical problem, we located the out dated relay (part) online which would have to be special ordered and shipped, resulting in an additional wait time and an additional service call. In order to help this customer I contacted my suppliers and was able to locate this outdated relay (part) IN STOCK and proceeded to pick it up from my supply house which is a one hour round trip and provided it to the customer at MY COST. Overall, I feel the price she paid to resolve her electrical issues is beyond fair…

I thought that the repairs were done well but were expensive for the tasks. I thought that those two jobs would be able to be one in the two hours which were offered for $99.00. I had to pay $50.00 for the new outdoor replacement recepticle. Apparently I had to pay for the travel time for him to purchase same. The job was professional and he was nice but again I thought $250.00 was too high for what I expected and asked for.
Description of Work: change porch hanging fixture (took down old fixture and replaced with new) Changed an outdoor plug to new plug according to code.

Please keep in mind that I offer competitive prices and I was extremely cautious and meticulous while working in your home that was built in 1903. When I removed the old single receptacle, I found there was no electrical box and very old and short wires. I was able to get some slack from the wire in the basement and install a new outdoor box also seal up the old hole and install a new gfci and an outdoor bubble cover. Work was performed in a three hour span; from the $150 received $50 went toward materials.

Description of Work: I purchased a special on Angie's list 2 hrs of electrical work for $100 because I needed to have two outside lights installed and 1 chandelier on the inside of my home. Victor also tightened up some loose electrical sockets.

Victor (the owner) called me the morning of our appointment and asked if he could come an hour EARLY. He did. He did very good work, with no telephone call interruptions, and no looking push additional work. I plan on mapping out some of the circuits involved and have him come back to do the jobs I brought up to him after he did the requested work. Very satisfied.
Description of Work: I called AVD based on an Angie's list Big Deal. Thus the price is not what they would normally charge.

He arrived on time and was very pleasant and professional. He gave me the full 2 hours and then some. We quickly agreed upon a fair price for the additional time and materials. I have kept his card and will use him again for any other problems I have.
Description of Work: Victor was able to replace an old outlet with a grounded. Also during the inspection noted that one of the new kitchen outlets was not grounded. The wire had been cut too short to make the connection, but he was eventually able to fix that, and he also inspected and fixed a loose outlet box in the basement and put on a new cover plate.

AVD Electrical's owner, Victor, was great throughout the process. Immediately after purchasing his service, he contacted me to schedule an appointment for the following week. On the day of the appointment, he contacted me in advance of his arrival time to let me know that a previous job was running long and to see if I would be okay for me if he came a few hours later than originally agreed. Upon his arrival, he was very friendly and professional, listening to what I needed and helping me to assess what he could accomplish within the two hours purchased. Victor was knowledgeable, efficient and friendly. He methodically diagnosed and repaired each issue and also talked me through the solution. He also made me aware of the basic wiring setup for each room, giving me options for future easy upgrades should I want them (i.e. adding a wall switched light to a ceiling fan, etc.). I enjoyed meeting Victor and was completely pleased with his work. I have two upcoming large renovation jobs that I will absolutely be contacting Victor to help me with!
Description of Work: The service we received was purchased via Angie's List Big Deal promotion email and included 2 hours of an electrician. AVD Electrical arrived and completed the the following three projects within the allotted two hours: 1) corrected a three-way light switch, 2) corrected a three-way half-hot outlets, 3) corrected a single switch three-way half-hot outlets.

Victor called to say he would be a few minutes late and then arrived exactly when he said he would. He assessed the job quickly and got to work promptly. As he ran into problems he acted quickly and creatively to surmount them. He was pleasant and affable throughout. He's a soft spoken, thoughtful person who wastes neither time nor effort. I will use him again.
Description of Work: Replace conventional lights with LED bulbs where I couldn't reach. Replaced ballast in Flourescent fixture. Evaluated timer for outdoor lights and secure timer operation.

Couldn't be happier with the experience. Victor called when he said he would, arrived exactly on time, carefully identified the problem and worked within my budget. He was completely professional.
Description of Work: Victor was terrific and I would highly recommend him. I hired him off of an Angie's List deal, and was so pleased with his work that I immediately asked him to stay and do a much larger job, completely rewiring my garage. Victor identified the problems and hazards with the original mis-wiring, fixed all, and added new outlets. He made sure that everything was done safely and to code. He worked with my budget to find me the most cost effective way to do the job. He was punctual and professional all the way through. I will most definitely hire him again next time I need electrical work. Thanks, Victor!

I was very satisfied, and would recommend him to everyone.
Description of Work: Anyone looking for an electrician look no further than AVD. I would rate them A+. Victor Varela Jr. is polite, and most important he knows what he is talking about. I had to have meters moved from my basement, and put outside. So he upgraded my service to a 200 amp, installed the meters outside and replaced my three panels along with all new breakers. Victor is very thorough. I received a free estimate, and a time frame in which the work would be completed, also a list of the parts that I would need. The work was done in one day, and passed inspection the following week! .

It went great. Victor is a young guy just getting his business off the ground. He's worked for other electric companies for 10-15 years and is now just starting to build his own book of business. He seems knowledgeable and hungry to build his client base. The work he did for us was of very good quality. The generator is tied perfectly to our panel and works seamlessly. Because he is just getting his business going, his price for our job was reasonable. We'll definitely be calling Victor when we need additional electric work.
Description of Work: After Hurricane Sandy, like 90% of our fellow New Jersey residents, we lost power. We were one of the lucky few that happened to be at the right place at the right time to get a generator and a transfer switch. Unfortunately all of our regular electricians were swamped with post-hurricane repair work so we had to look for another electrician to install the generator and transfer switch to the electric panel.
