electrician
+ -1 moreDon contacted us promptly, and told us that he would have time for us the next week. He called us the following Monday and came to give us an estimate the same day. We agreed to the estimate and settled on Thursday of last week as the day on which he would complete the work. He came promptly at 9:00, and worked steadily for four hours. His work was of high quality, and he was meticulous about cleaning up when he was done. Don is a true professional, and we would definitely use him again.
Description of Work: Don installed a new wire from my stove outlet to the breaker box. He changed several outlets for us, and put in GFI outlets. He also installed the switch to our garbage disposal.

+ -1 moreHe is a stickler for code issues, and was very helpful making us feel safer, as the previous owner did some of his own electrical work (shouldn't give up his day job!). Would recommend Don to anyone who needs a good job done well and at reasonable cost.
Description of Work: Don fixed several (about 10) different electrical issues in our home.

+ -1 moreHe is quick, friendly, efficient , punctual and does a good clean job. Very reasonable rates compared to other electricians I have worked with. I will call him whenever I need an electrician
Description of Work: Don showed up on Wednesday 5/4 to find an electrical problem. None of the lights in my bathroom were working. He checked the switches, the circuit breaker and quickly found and fixed a loose wire in a juction box in the ceiling of my basement. He returned on Saturday to install a new double outlet (four plugs altogether) to a new line on its own circuit in my living room. The house call on Wednesday took about 20 minutes and was $75. The work on Saturday took about an hour and was $125 for parts & labor.

+ -1 moreHis professionalism was very good. As far as I can tell the quality is good; it?s all underground and it works.
Description of Work: Don Newcomb had to troubleshoot why the post light in the front of our house wasn’t working. It turns out there was a break in the line underground so he had to run a new line and conduit.

electrician
+ -1 moreI contacted him because he was on Angie's List. I did not ask him about prior experience, so I am guessing at my rating based on his age and his obvious familiarity and proficiency with what I asked him to do. He was very pleasant from our first contact all the way through, worked diligently and efficiently. I had originally contacted him for one problem, later remembered the other two tasks and added them when he arrived.
Description of Work: He removed and replaced a defective, double circuit breaker with two new separate breakers, removed hot water heater breakers, installed new 20A breaker, rewired and reboxed an outdoor switch.
