Overall, Dave's service was excellent. Dave was punctual, professional and provided a fair price. He was available via chat to agree on appointments and helped me with the town permit. He upgraded my kitchen lighting by adding more circuits, running two electrical lines for the cooktop, wall oven, and updated the electrical panel. He cleaned the area after work was done. He is friendly and courteous. I highly recommend Dave.

If you're looking around for an electrician, just stop here and give Dave a call. I had a fairly involved project that involved a service upgrade, generator, load shedders, plus new heat pump wiring, and Dave did a phenomenal job. He worked nonstop through extremely cold weather and ensured that everything was done properly and to code. Reliable, good communication, and excellent work. I would absolutely use him again!

Description of Work: Dave and Alex did great work, replacing my old fluorescent lighting in the basement with brand new LEDs and installing an electric car charging outlet in the garage. Very professional and friendly crew, it was great to have them at our house. Looking forward to calling on Burton Electric again as electrical projects come up at my home. Thank you!

It was an amazing experience. Dave came a week ago to give me an estimate. He came on time. I am extremely pleased with the quality of the work. I talked with him about some other issues and projects I had in mind for the future. He said that he would email me some numbers. We can not overstate how happy we are, and would definitely hire him again.

Dave Burton came on time, diagnosed the issue fairly quickly, and resolved it right away. Very professional, very personable. As he had decided to come himself without an assistant for this project, the price was much less than originally anticipated. When I then asked him about a more extensive project inside the house, he gave me what I felt was a very fair price. I expect to call on him again soon for that project...
Description of Work: I do much of the smaller electrical work in the home but came across a problem I just could not seem to resolve with regard to one outlet.

Dave was responsive and easy to work with. Was on time and left all work areas clean. Setting up an appointment was easy and the work completed came in right with the estimate I received which was reasonable. I need additional work completed in the near future and will call upon Burton Electric for the job.
Description of Work: Needed multiple items taken care of in my home, replacement of a ceiling light which he updated to not include the ballast. Hung a stairwell chandelier, replaced fire alarms with a more updated system for me, installed light switch dimmers with remote control and timers for outdoor lights.

It's very rare to find a service person who is polite, accommodating, punctual and get's the job right the first time. Dave from Burton Electric is that find!!! Dave is one awesome electrician and I can recommend him with the greatest confidence. No fuss, no mess AND THEY CLEAN UP AFTER THEMSELVES! Dave is a pleasure to deal with. He is responsive, timely, very friendly and most importantly, he and his assistant Alex do excellent work!!!!! . I highly recommend Burton Electric to my family and friends and will absolutely use them again in the future.

Dave and Alex gave me the best price quote, and that was the price I paid when the job was done. They were able to add a couple of small job I requested last minute. They were on schedule, and did a great job. Dave communicated with me when I was out if the house to confirm certain things with me. Overall they did a wonderful job and I would definitely use them again!

Not often I had come by a professional that is honest, reliable, responsive with fair pricing. Burton Electric has been the fourth electrician I have had making major repairs and installations in the two houses we owned in New Jersey and by far has been the best. Dave was punctual, worked very clean and was flexible adjusting and making changes as the work proceeded. He was attentive to my concern not to exceed my budget. Rarely a contractor will be encouraging saying "we can have 4 lights in this room and if it is not enough I will add more, but I think it will be enough." Saved me a couple of hundred dollars and was not tight with every little item he installed like a new and nicer plate here and there, and even replaced an old outlet and did not charge me. His estimate was the best of the other 5 contractors. Kudos Burton Electric. Highly recommended.

Dave & Alex replaced the breaker and found various faults in the circuit wiring. They corrected the faults and made recommendations to lessen the load on the circuit. Dave looked to see if there was a way to run a new line to reduce the load. He sketched out the proposal and gave me a ballpark figure for a future improvement. The proposal seems very reasonable and I be using Burton Electrical for future projects at various locations. Highly recommend!

Dave and Alex did a fantastic job on my new home. They installed a new sub panel, and changed all the old outlets and light switches. They replaced my ceiling fan and chandelier. They installed new ceiling light fixtures in all the bedrooms, the kitchen and the living room. They also added additional outlets, replaced a venting light in the bathroom and replaced all of my outdoor lighting fixtures. Dave was easy to reach and was on time every day. They always cleaned up after themselves. Their work is top notch and I would definitely hire them again. In fact he is coming to do some additional work in the very near future.

Dave and his associate, Alex, was professional and timely. He took the extra time to trouble shoot some wiring issues when he could have taken the easy road and knocked more holes in walls ( I even told him it was okay, but he didn't do it). Will definitely use him again for future work.

On Aug, 25th we called Burton Electronics, based on previous favorable reviews, and got a recorded message that they were closed and would be back Mon Aug, 28th. We left a message regarding several things we needed done. Today is Sept. 5th and we have NEVER received a callback from them. Not the way to do business.
