The company responded quickly to my email request and scheduled a time a few days out which was reasonable. Rob showed up on-time, got to work and fixed the problem quickly. He was very professional, knowledgeable and personable. He even had extra time to fix another fluorescent light fixture in the basement. I will definitely call again for future work!

Rob has been out to my on several occasions (see other review). Each time his customer service, work, and knowledge is outstanding. Rob not only provides great insights about electrical needs but also provides helpful ideas without the feeling of being sold. He very cost conscious and always make suggestions based on saving me money. I have recommended Rob to good friends in my network and he will always be "go to" electrical person. Thanks Rob!
Description of Work: Several projects including wiring a backyard shed. He installed several flood lights for the parameter of our two-story house. Very high! Rob came out around dusk to assure flood lights were performing as they should and motion detectors activated at the right time. He was here long after sunset to assure everything worked perfectly.

We recently purchased a home which at one time had a pool. The pool was covered years ago and we were left with electrical outlets throughout the backyard. This impacted the working of our exterior patio outlets. I called O'Keefe and received a return call from Rob within the hour (not sure I believe the review of no return call). Rob arrived as scheduled. Friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. He immediately began working on our puzzle. Within an hour he had figured out all the wiring set up in our backyard, fixed the outlets, and made suggestions on what to do with the electrical access we did have in place. I will be inviting Rob back to work on other puzzles (we have many!) in our large home. Definitely my "to go" electrical service. I highly recommend.
Description of Work: Check & change exterior & patio outlets

Rob did a great job. He always responded promptly and showed up when he said he would. He provided us with a waterproof outdoor connection, a switch in the basement, and a new circuit breaker - all GFI protected. He was very professional, very personable, and we would definitely call him again if we had a need.
Description of Work: Rob connected an outdoor water feature to the circuit box inside my basement..

My suggestion for the company is to return calls of prospective customers. This is just common courtesy.
Description of Work: The provider never answered my phone calls. Let me explain. I called them on Monday June 1, 2015 and left a message as to who I was, a return phone number to reach me (I have an answering machine), and a brief description of the work I needed done. Their answering machine stated I would get a return call by the end of the business day. Since I never received a return phone call on Monday I waited a few days for me to call back. Actually I waited until Friday morning June 5, 2015 to call back. i left the same message for them. Their phone machine message hadn't changed either. So on Monday evening June 8th I began looking for another electrician.

Thank you considering our company for electrical work. I am sorry that we did not meet your expectations! I will take your suggestions and change our answering machine message in the future when we have a family emergency... sorry for the inconvenience of not returning your call requesting our services...

Rob had done a previous job for me last year the week of Thanksgiving when my dining room light stopped working. He came right over and fixed it right away. He was on time and professional.Even gave me an estimate on my other outlets. When I decided to update my kitchen a little I called Rob. He was great. On time and got the work done perfectly. He added an outlet for my new microwave above my stove and change my kitchen outlets to gfi. I would recommend him to anyone. He is an outstanding worker and an all around nice person. The previous person I dealt with wasn't so this was very refreshing.
Description of Work: Added a dedicated electrical outlet for a microwave oven and installed gfi outlets in the kitchen.

Highly recommended in every possible way: intelligent, articulate, punctual, very attentive to detail; is fast, efficient, and delivered what he promised. Rob O'Keefe's website is very informative and the customer knows in great detail beforehand what sort of "total" service will be provided, along with pricing. I have more electrical needs in the future and will definitely use his services again.
Description of Work: Removed the old main FPE breaker and replaced it with a new SquareD service panel and grounded it; then had it inspected. Also, mounted one ceiling fan and replaced several switches, plugs, and dimmers; in addition disconnected and removed some obsolete outdoor wiring.

Rob was such a sweet, professional guy from start to finish. He came and did a free estimate on getting our circuit box upgraded and some related electrical work done, and his offer just blew everyone else out of the water. He did the work quickly and coordinated with National Grid for us on the outside wires. He did make one small mistake in hooking the central air back up, resulting in no a/c for a while until he could come back. But he apologized forever and even reimbursed us the entire price of the a/c tuneup we had done thinking that was the problem. Great guy!

All aspects of the job were done promptly per a previous quote. Robert had previous experience for all of the tasks. The trickiest was the landscape lighting, but he was careful to map out the three circuits and keep everything straight. The time from quote to completion was 7 days.
Description of Work: The job included five tasks: 1) Installing low voltage landscape lighting in our back yard; 2) Replacing the rope lights in the tray ceiling in our master bedroom; 3) Adding an outlet in my cellar; 4) Adding a timer/switch for my front walk lights; 5) Replacing the ballast in a fluorescent light fixture.

He was professional and helpful. He listened to all our concerns and questions then responded with knowledgeable answers. He restored our power which had been partially switched off. Then, he checked out a few more things to make sure we wouldn't run into problems in the future. We can't say enough about how helpful and courteous he was. We will be calling him with any future electrical needs.
Description of Work: We called at 5:00 on a Thursday hoping he would be able to come the following day. He offered to come right away, and was here within a half hour. He fixed our circuit breaker and restored the power that had been partially off.

On just-bought 60 year old house, needed safer main power connections. Work, including dealing with power company and town inspection, was done on budget, and with less disruption time than anticipated. They also did some extra checking not part of the original schedule. Excellent, professional job at reasonable cost. We'll be using Rob and his team again!
