they were to dig a trench from my house to the garage 30 ft. long and 18in deep and install a PVC pipe and danger tape. sent 2 men to do the job. worked 1 hr. and disappeared for 2 hr. came back and when I told them what they did to my gravel path was not acceptable, (mixed the dirt with the gravel) I was told they would get more gravel. went away for another hr. and returned to pile the gravel in a hump across the path. I called and was told it would be fixed but nothing was done after a week with no call back I canceled the job. when the next electrician looked at the job, he showed me the PVC pipe was only 6 in. deep and would NOT pass inspection. I would NOT hire this Co. again because there was no oversite and they tried to charge me for 4 hr. of work.
Description of Work: power to the garage

Mr. [Member Name Removed], I’m sorry to hear about you’re unpleasant experience, unfortunately you have left this review with the wrong contractor. I have never been to your house or ever done work for you in the past. I do not have any employees that work for me, I am the owner and only employee. If you would be so kind to remove this review from my account I would appreciate it and if John Conte Electric Inc could ever be of service to you in the future I look forward to meeting you. Thank you, John Conte

John has been an amazing partner for us! He is extremely polite and professional, keeps a clean work environment, provides a reasonable estimate and keeps us updated as he goes, and clearly knows and loves what he does. He proposed very creative ideas for rewiring and adding light switches and outlets--great ideas I would never have thought of myself. He is very careful to cause as minimal disruption to our old plaster walls as possible. He also helped us think through the timeline for how and when we would rewire each section of the house, based on the other restoration projects we have going on at the same time. I'd recommend him to any friend or family member I know.
Description of Work: John completely rewired the old Victorian we purchased, removing old knob-and-tube and upgrading to current electrical systems, while being very careful to cause minimal damage to the historic home.

Response from John Conte Electric Inc
Hello Mr. [Member Name Removed], I am sorry for your frustration, but I feel you might have me confused with another electrician. There is a Conte Electric & John Cotte or Cotte Electric in the area. I am one person with no office staff and have been on a large historical restoration project for the last twelve weeks and have not taken on any new work or clients during that time. The job I have been on is also just around the corner from your address. I have no record or email of any conversation or appointment with you. I am now complete with that project and taking on new clients and work, so if I can help you in any way please feel free to contact me anytime. Thank you John Conte (John Conte Electric Inc.)

The Contes are exemplary electrical professionals. The charge a fair price. The show up on time and finish in the allotted time. They keep the job site very tidy. Their work looks great and is easy to tell that they take great pride in their work. I most highly recommend Conte Electric.
Description of Work: I have had John and his father at my home on several times to do various jobs for me, including 1. Upgrading my service panel fro 100 to 200 amps, 2. Install 50 inch flat screen and Bose surround sound hiding all wires in walls, 3. Install a separate breaker box that I can plug into my generator when the power goes out, 4. Install bathroom exhaust fans that vent outside.

John Conte is totally professional - he made an appointment to canvas the problem and set a date soon after for doing the job which took one day and 4 hours. He is efficient, unfailingly polite and informative about every aspect of the job. I have no reservations in recommending him for anything electric.

Mr. Conte was very professional from the moment he entered the door. He made every effort to resolve the electrical problem. One of the things that impressed me the most was the care he took when handling our possessions. I have other work that needs to be done and will not hesitate to have him return. I must also add at how prompt he was at returning our phone call as well as arriving. I couldn't have asked for more. I would highly recommend Conte Electric to anyone I know.

John brought his Dad with him. His Dad has 40 years experience as a professional electrician. They were punctual, friendly, considerate, respectful, and just incredibly professional. The quality of their work was just top notch. They covered all of the furniture in all three rooms that they were working. John gave me advice about the bathroom fixtures and what work should be done when it comes time to start that project. We also talked about a kitchen project that I would like to do someday when funds are available... John gave great advice. At the end John and his dad cleaned up and left the place cleaner than when they got here. John even asked to borrow my vacuum cleaner! As far as i'm concerned, this is the only guy I'll call when I have electrical work in the future.

Called on Thursday after reading review comments on Angie's list. Received call back that night and set up appointment for following afternoon to see what work needed to be done. Arrived at my home at agreed upon time, he listened as I explained what work had been done in past and what I wanted done now. Was told I would be called in day or two with estimate, but received call within a few hours with job price quote. After all agreed on, appointment was set up for Monday morning. Arrived when promised and work completed. Very professional and pleasant. Protected workspace and cleaned up as work progressed. Even when faced with challenge of extreme cold outdoor weather, continued to complete installation of light fixture meticulously. Extremely happy with results, would definitely call again and recommend to others. Thank you so much.
Description of Work: changed out over sink light fixture and installed motion security light on deck.

We were so happy and satisfied with John's impeccable work. We have a 'new' old house and were concerned that the electrical upgrades would be to the same high standards as the renovations. And, with John's care and skill we had no complaints! We will call him whenever we need an electrician.

After several days of not receiving estimate, we left a message. Never received estimate and never heard back from John. We needed an electrician for several items. First of all our kitchen light had stopped working, so we had no light in our kitchen. Second, there were several trouble issues with switches, wiring, and motion detection devices that were mal functioning. Next, there were a number of out door lighting that we wanted install around the yard, and pool. After waiting three weeks, we got someone to replace our kitchen light so that we could at least see in the kitchen.
Description of Work: John came by, looked at work and promised to send estimate.

[member name removed], I believe you may have me confused with another contractor. I never went to your house and looked at any work. We did speak on the phone, and I was going out of town and we talk about reconnecting after I returned, to have me come out to take a look. We never did connect again and I apologize if I did not follow up with you upon my return. I'm sorry for any confusion but I was never at your house or estimated any work. Again I apologize for any misunderstanding and wish you well with your projects. John Conte

We didn't actually pay for the service and I don't know what the charge was. It was an issue in a house we were buying, and we could find no one with experience fixing radiant ceiling heat. John did his research, obtained special equipment and fixed the problem. He was hired by the owners/sellers of the house, but because I had found him and brought him on board, he also communicated with us and was really open and helpful. Five stars!

Gave me the amt. after completing the job and rattled off the breakdown. Paid him and Thanked him. In evening after busy day 14hour day called him with 2 quick questions: (1) Do you give estimate in advance (2) Can you give me the breakdown again so I can write it down. This upset him. Said it was insulting. Said he would complain to the guy who recommended him. Tried to explain to him that no offense was meant. He asked whether the price was the proble?. Told him I am a businessman. Just wanted to know - to deal as a businessman & have a long-term relationship. He gave me a goodbye & good luck speech and hung up. Overall seemed to be full of self-importance, arrogance and abrasiveness.
Description of Work: Changed 2 Tube lights - was quick- approx. 15 minutes & charged for 1 hour min.
