This is the second time McDougall Electric has performed work at our home, and both times were outstanding experiences. The electrician is knowledgeable and communicative. Both times I felt confident that the upgraded work was now safe and reliable. In addition to the highly professional level of service, I am very appreciative of Diana who was extraordinarily responsive to phone calls. In both instances, the electricians were at my home within 24 hours, and in one case the service was done on the day I called. Each time, Diana called to let me know when the electricians were on the way.
Description of Work: Replaced the ballasts in two fluorescent fixtures and provided new lights that matched the ballasts. Reinstalled a ceiling fan that had been installed incorrectly by a family member. Updated the box, wiring. Patched and plastered, leaving the ceiling looking like new, vacuumed all the dirt that was created by the repair, and left the rooms cleaner than they were before!

Really great guys. They arrive promptly. They do great work. They even clean up after themselves. But be sure to ask for a quote first. My second time using them they overcharged for what was done. Still, great work. Was probably my fault for not asking prior to the fact. I'd still use them again for an important job. They explain this as you go if you ask and they really do leave the place in good shape.
Description of Work: They corrected some old wiring and replaced an outlet in my kitchen. Came on a Saturday, too.

Electricians were dispatched quickly after my initial call. When they arrived I told them the dining room lights weren't working They assessed the problem and discovered it was in the ceiling fan which they promptly assessed and fixed. They were friendly, courteous and very efficient. I would have no hesitation to use them again and refer them to friends and neighbors. This is the second time I've used this company and both times have been very pleased with their service.

I replaced a switch/ outlet combo receptacle with a typical double outlet receptacle in my living room. Went to go turn the breaker on and it popped/ sizzled. I thought the circuit breaker blew; bought a new one and no avail. McDougall came out and found out that I tightened the electrical work box clamp on the wires and not on the jacket/ shielding thus creating a short. A STUPID mistake that cost me $400. Could it have been done for cheaper? Yes, I'm sure... but, everyone was booked, they didn't want to budge from that price, and I was kind of desperate b/c half of my kitchen was on that circuit breaker line. The electricians work on the other hand, which I personally stood and watched over, was very good. He labeled the wires, installed a larger box, since there were 3 cables coming in, and checked/ installed my original old my circuit breaker.
Description of Work: Diagnose why circuit breaker popped/ sizzled when turned on after a replacement of a wall outlet receptacle - no power on that electrical line.

Chris McDougall has been my family's electrician for years. There's no one else I would trust to touch the electric in my home. He's professional, fairly priced, works cleanly and promptly, not to mention a really nice guy, as is his son who works in the business with him.

But that was the fourth visit. From March-July, 2013, McDougall checked my electrical system, rewired circuits, installed light fixtures and additional outlets or replaced moved or defective ones, wired in 19 recessed lights, installed exterior floodlights and adjusted switches, and so on. The costs were high, but I suspect no higher than the going rate -- I cross-checked one or two of the quotes. It was sometimes difficult to get them to come, but when they said they were going to come at a certain time, they did. Very professional operation.
Description of Work: On July 3, installed four hard-wired smoke/CO detectors, replacing battery-operated units.

Apparently I was not strong enough to reset the circuit breaker myself because he was able to reset it immediately. However, he checked all the affected lights and outlets to make sure there wasn't a short somewhere which had caused the circuit breaker to trip. He didn't find anything, but the fact that he was so thorough was very impressive and encouraging. I will certainly use this company again and have no hesitation to recommend them to anyone who needs any electrical service.

Called to receive an estimate. No response called back two days later and was told Ohh, He said he had to remember to contact you. I then recieved a call on Sat. Feb. 25 at 9:17 am to ask if he could come at around 10:00am . I thought that was definitely short notice and more importantly I had plans, ie, swim class. He added that may be he could come Sunday, 2/26 or Wednesday (2/29), of course all contigent on a call. Well, no call as of yet!!

Due to the frequency of power outtages in my area I decided once and for all to purchase a 7,500 watt emergency generator. I had McDougall Electric install a transfer switch next to my service. Pete and Chris Jr. came on time and did an excellent job with no mess or fuss. This is the second time I have used McDougall Electric and I will continue to use them for many years to come. This is a very honest and professional family run business.

I was searching for an electrical contractor to do all the electrical work require for the installation of a Mitsubishi Mr. slim split system air conditioning unit ( i.e.one outside unit mounted one wall split into three internal units in each bedroom). Called several contractors found on Angie's List. A few did not call back or informed me that they could only do apart of the job or had never had experienced with these units. Chris McDougall was referred to me by a friend. I called him and he returned my call in twenty minutes. I described what I needed done; he told me that he had done many jobs like mine. a few days later he dropped by the house and I described what and how I needed done. He checked out my existing electrical panel and told me that I did not have enough capacity for the new air conditioner and that I needed another panel. I agreed to that. Two days later, two of his workmen came to my house at 9a.m. sharp and started to install a new electrical panel in our basement and start running wires to the external air conditioning unit from the new panel. They also installed a new electrical box on the outside of our house. The next day, the same two workers ran electric cables up to the attic then dropped the three cables into each bedroom, connected each internal air conditioning unit and replastered and caulked any plaster that was cracked during installation.
Description of Work: Installed new electrical panel in order to supply power for our new split system air conditioner; the contractor also did all the necessary wiring for the external unit and for the three internal units in our bedrooms. They were also nice enough to replace an old chandelier with a new one at no extra cost. Very neat and punctual.
