It was difficult contacting Conte Electric because their phones were taken out of service by the storm, as were mine. But after the phone service was restored, I was able to make contact and schedule the repair which was done quickly and professionally.
Description of Work: Re-connected the electrical service to the house after storm Sandy had dropped a limb on it, ripping it off the house.

They were referred by a friend and have been here doing work for the last couple of months. The second crew that came out was not as good as the crew that came out the first two times but they were very reliable and cleaned up. They did a good job and are coming out to check on one thing; but it may not be anything they did. They had to a lot of crawling around in my attic and I was pleased with them. Their price was reasonable and they only missed returning my phone calls one time. This was because two of their employees were having surgery and they were operating shorthanded.
Description of Work: I used Conte Electric to install an outdoor outlet and new light in my hallway. They also installed a new light in my dining room, changed a lot of my electric switches around and added new switches. They did a whole bunch of odds and ends stuff; things that I have been meaning to have fixed for years including 2-way lights that only worked 1 way.

They are excellent and reliable. They were here. They do not make you wait forever. They came to my house. I had a small thing to do and they are a big company yet they send somebody right out the next day. It was a fair price. They were really nice people. The people they send out are very personable.
Description of Work: I used Conte Electric Incorporated for electrical services. They were here three weeks ago for a light issue.

They were very professional, both in giving their estimate and their service. Their estimate matched the price due on the invoice. They were very reasonable on the price. They came on time, did the work in a day, did a great job, and cleaned up afterward. We are very satisfied with the service provided. They answered any questions that I had while their were working. We did receive a 5% discount for being an Angie's List member during a promotion that they were running at the time of service.
Description of Work: They put in a new circuit breaker panel and replaced our outdoor service cable.

The receptionist at Conte Electrical was courteous and efficient and scheduled a service appointment within two days of my call. The work I wished to have completed was not urgent so short wait was fine. I think that an emergency would have elicited an immediate service call. The electrician dispatched to my home was punctual. He phoned about 1 hour in advance to let me know when he would arrive. He was extremely pleasant and very efficient, with knowledge of the problems I had presented to receptionist. He got right to work and was finished within about one hour! He even offered to help me move a very heavy air conditioner that had been obstructing the entrance to my second floor to our outside deck! The electrician also saved me a ton of money by repairing things that others would likely have needlessly replaced. My wife and I have decided to call Conte whenever we need the services of an electrician and recommend them to others.
Description of Work: Repaired rotary bedroom ceiling fan, repaired attic exhaust fan, rewired electrical receptacle in bath, advised against an unnecessary costly upgrade.

Were recommended by my neighbor and architect. We have plaster walls and old electrical in our 1920's house. Every bedroom did not have a ceiling light or a light switch on the wall. Over the years we've had some real unprofessional people "install" a light switch (and light fixture) in a bedroom and leave a our place a wreck. Conte/A Perfect Goldman didn't leave a mess and were in and out before I knew it. They saw our walls and told us beforehand where they were going to make their cuts. They neatly patched up the holes and I barely noticed anything.
Description of Work: They put in a light (and switch) in my daughter's closet as well as installed a ceiling light fixture (and switch) in another bedroom.

I am using them for the first time. My overall experience was great. . The price is comfortable to everybody else. They are very nice. They showed up on time. They are very clean and neat. They have to come back for one thing.
Description of Work: I have used Conte Electric DBA a Perfect Goldman Electric. They replaced my circuit breaker box along with the cable on the outside of the house along with miscellaneous things inside the house and they will probably come back for one other thing.

The 2 man team went to work immediately upon arrival. each one engaged in a separate job. Then, once a couple of the smaller jobs were completed, the two worked together to snake cables through walls and wire up the new outlets.
Description of Work: I had 3 new baseboard outlets installed in our 100+ year old house, I had a non functioning dimmer replaced, I had a non-functioning circuit breaker replaced. There were two men, and the total job took about 5 hours.

My electrical project went very smoothly with Conte Electric from estimate to project completion. I scheduled my estimate appointment and Chris was very punctual and efficient. When I decided to move forward with the project, I was able to schedule it easily to fit within my vacation days. The crew members who completed the project were punctual, understood what I wanted done and did quality work. My plaster walls had very minimal damage and the crew was thorough with their clean up each day. We came upon a few surprises during the project (I live in a old building) and they were able to explain to me what my options were. I felt the entire team was very friendly, honest and trustworthy. I was very impressed with Conte Electric and would recommend them to anyone who needs electrical work to be performed on their home.
Description of Work: Replaced existing light switches to dimmers, replaced existing light fixtures, replaced old outlets, installed new dimmer switches, installed new ceiling fixtures, installed new outlets, ran new cable wires, replaced bad wiring and moved electrical panel.

Very happy with the service. Joe did a great job, was very professional and courteous. While this was a small job, based on the positive experience with both the office staff (office staff was very responsive and called me back right away) and electrician, would definitely have them come back in the future for both small and bigger projects.
Description of Work: A few outlets didn't work and the doorbell didn't work.

Conte did a great job on my home renovation. I am doing the whole gut renovation of the kitchen, basement, and bathrooms myself and they were nice enough to work around my schedule and wait for me to complete some of my projects before they came back to finish. They had been working on my house on and off for about 4 months. While at my house, they worked efficiently and always cleaned up after themselves. They gave us good advice about lighting and wiring since my wife and I designed everything ourselves. The only criticism I have is that communication between myself to the workers for the office usually didn't work. I know for the future to just call the office when scheduling or changing work, etc. They are great people and I will always use them.
Description of Work: Complete rewiring of kitchen and basement. New lighting in Kitchen, Basement, foyer, living room, and master bedroom. Installed vent fans in both bathrooms. Removed all old wiring and disposed of it.

I left an email for the company and they got back to me very quickly. I explained the problem to the person on the phone and they set up an appointment and told me the price is 96.00 an hour. He came between 830 and 900 am and he finished within a half an hour. The only thing was that i thought since he didn't spend an hour that the price would be cheaper because the switch was only 3.00 and he also charged the wrong rate for the tax in yonkers which is 8.375.
Description of Work: He came and checked the switch on the furnace because the man from Sears said it wasn't working and we needed a new one. He checked it and said it wasn't working and installed a new one and checked to make sure it worked.

two service providers arrived at about 8:30 AM as scheduled. They went right to work, worked continuously until the two fans were installed and running, cleaned up and were gone by about 11:30.
Description of Work: I have been using Conte Electric for many years and have always been impressed with their service and professionalism. There is rarely a long wait for service. They are punctual, get the job done in a timely manner and clean up before they leave. I highly recommend them for jobs big and small. This time they installed two ceiling fans efficiently and cleanly.

They got back to us very promptly to schedule an estimate, were prompt in arriving, reviewed the job and explained what would and wouldn't be necessarily and submitted a detailed written estimate. The estimate was very competitive with the other two companies.
Description of Work: Conte provided an estimate for upgrade to our electrical service, including replacing a fuse box with circuit breakers, increasing the service to 200 amps, and adding a couple light fixtures including an bathroom fixture/exhaust fan. Their estimate was extremely competitive but we selected another company where the owner would be doing the work himself with his employees and was comfortable installing duct work in the attic for the ventilation fan.

We'd been having periodic dimming and loss of power, with no attending tripping of an auxiliary set of circuit breakers on our first floor. Flipping the breakers on and off again seemed to help in the beginning, but we knew something was dangerously wrong on a cold Sunday night when that trick stopped working and we could hear a sizzling inside the box. To be safe, we killed the power to the box, which meant spending the rest of the evening in the dark -- and without heat from our furnace, which runs off that circuit -- and resolved to find an electrician first thing in the a.m. We found Conte Electric on Angie's List and called them at 7:10 a.m. They picked up the phone on one ring, told us their rates up front, and were at the house by 9:00 a.m. By 10:00 a.m, they had diagnosed and fixed the problem -- loose aluminum wiring and a bad lug on one of the breakers. My wife breathed a BIG sigh of relief and I determined that these are the guys I will call whenever I have electrical needs in the future. Good, honest, skilled, professionals.
Description of Work: Technician arrived within a couple of hours after calling. He listened to our description of the problem (it appeared to be a faulty breaker), then immediately set to work investigating. He quickly identified the problem -- which was, incidentally, preventing us from using our furnace, even as the temperature outside hovered around 10 degrees F -- and proceeded to fix it with minimal fuss. He was courteous, professional, and willing to take the time to explain what he was doing and how it all works. Couldn't ask for a better experience.

After a little tardiness getting the estimate to me by the Conte's representative, their technician (Matt) arrived on time, worked diligently and professionally and left each of the areas he worked in spotless. He was friendly and courteous throughout and, as a result, I recommend Conte Electrical and will use them again (probably requesting Matt!).

It was very professional but it was not cheap. They did exactly what they said they would do and charged exactly what they said they were going to charge. The only thing they were late with was billing me. The price was sort of expensive.

I had several people come to my house to quote the job and while Conte?s was not the lowest (the lowest bidder was only about $50 cheaper) they had a good an understanding of what needed to be done and were able to schedule the work right away. They arrived promptly, did the job as requested and provided documentation (for my insurance company) when I requested it.
