Services we don't offer
Due to the recent code changes for swimming pool and hot tub installations, we do not have the equipment necessary to be competitive for this type of work.
Luis and Jack (the apprentice) did an amazing job. They were very thorough and knowledgeable and helped to explain things to us in a very easy to understand manner. They were also just very nice people too. Mark was also great, his quote was accurate and I felt very reasonable for the quality of work that was performed. We waited no time at all for the quote as well as for the work to start. Do yourself a favor and hire Ellenwood Electric for the great workmanship and peace of mind.
Description of Work: Complete new 200 amp service along with light installations and several other smaller electrical tasks (Installing light fixtures, changing GFI outlets, rewiring outlets and installing a ceiling fan).

Luis showed up right as promised. He diagnosed the problem promptly and did the needed repair. He also advised me on where I can go to find the type of fixtures I need. Once I have them I look forward to have Ellenwood Electric install them.

Lewis and Jack were punctual, friendly and very professional. They always do a great job and leave the jobsite clean and tidy. We would highly recommend them.

Services panel board, meter socket, and riser - 200 amps. (1) Services sub-panel board - 150 amps.
Description of Work: Communication was always very clear, courteously, and as they answered my numerous questions in detail. I very much appreciated that the contract was very detailed with everything that was going to be done. Thework was done with an equal level of thoroughness, work was done on-time, and the work space was always kept tidy. The exterior walls of our home are solid stone (not a facade) but Ellenwood was able to get the work done smoothly. Final clean-up was just as thorough as every other step and we are 100% satisfied. I can highly recommend them!

Mark and his team were great. From the initial consultation to scheduling to execution, everything was seamless. We highly recommend Ellenwood Electric. We will be using them for future projects. See below for more details. We recently purchased an older home built in 1900. It is challenging to find people with the knowledge and skills to work on such buildings. For this first phase, we had many outlets updated, outlets added, and ceiling lighting added into the living/family rooms. We also had a few problems that needed troubleshooting regarding wall switches and what they did. Everything was done well, efficiently, and on time as promised - very reasonably priced. Shout out to Luis (not sure on spelling) for leading onsite. Great guy, friendly, respectful, and very knowledgeable! We are remodeling our kitchen next year, which will require some significant electrical upgrades. I would have no one else but Mark and his team do the work.
Description of Work: Added electrical outlets - interior and exterior, upgraded electrical outlets, added ceiling lighting in living/family rooms, fixed linkages between wall switches and fixtures that were broken.

Ellenwood Electric responded to a request for quote to upgrade our existing 100 amp electrical panel to a 200 amp electrical panel and was onsite within the week to perform a detailed walkthrough to prepare a scope of work and quote. Once the work was approved a date was scheduled and vendor Mark from Ellenwood reached out directly to provide scheduled dates and ask if there were any questions. On the the two days of install Luis and Diego were promptly on time and performed the entire scope of work and answered questions that we had about the process. Overall Ellenwood Electric was 100% professional and pleasant and would work with them again for all future electrical needs.

We had a great experience with Mark and his team. Mark was quick to respond to our request for a quote and came back with a reasonable quote for our 200 amp upgrade.I also came away feeling like he had a solid plan for dealing with some of the quirks of our house. I also had to reschedule this large job and Mark was able to accommodate that. Luis and Diego performed the work and they were absolutely fantastic. Friendly and professional at the same time, they performed high quality work and kept us in the loop the whole way. We also had a separate sub panel upgraded and wiring put in place for an EV charge. Everything came out working well and looking great. It was a pleasure having them take care of the project for us. I would definitely recommend Ellenwood Electric and will not hesitate to call them again for any of our future electrical needs.

Mark, the owner, is a great communicator-quickly responsive to calls and emails, patient with questions, very knowledgeable and professional in every way. Luis and his assistant, Diego, called 1/2 hour before arriving as promised, and they were right on time, very respectful, polite, and hard-working. Unlike some other contracting companies' workers I've had, they also just seemed peaceful, working together quietly and efficiently in a mutually respectful way, and without any arguing or swearing at all, which I really appreciated! Luis also removed the base of a lightbulb that had broken off in a ceiling socket when I tried to remove it the week before. A tip he shared: always leave the bulb just slightly loose, instead of tightening as far as it will go, to avoid this in the future. This is one company I feel confident to say will not take advantage of you. I'm relieved to have discovered them! Thanks, Mark, Luis, and Diego for a job well-done! :)

Mark and his team are FANTASTIC! You will not find a higher quality electrician in the Rochester area. They are honest, fair, and kind people. I think the thing I loved most about them is they always explained what they were doing and WHY. No corners are cut. Always professional, quality, and clean work. I would recommend Ellenwood Electric to all of my family and friends. I am so relieved I know there is an electrician we can count on. Thank you to Mark and his team for their outstanding service!

These guys are great. They were courteous, knowledgeable, fast, and organized. There was little disruption even though they rewired the entire house. I love the new lights! Ellenwood also handled all of the permits and coordinated with the power company. I highly recommend them if you need any work done.

Perfect as always. We have used Ellenwood for small and larger projects. We are always happy when they leave. They have run wiring for new outlets, fixed faulty plugs, installed new ceiling fans and bathroom vents/fans/heaters and are always professional. We live in an 1871 home and many electricians won't touch it. Ellenwood tackles the projects with professionalism and knowledge of historic homes. We could not be happier with their work. Honest and professional.

They arrived on time with complete instructions on what work was to be done. Their work was meticulous. They were totally professional, polite and cleaned up all materials with a complete explanation at the completion of the job, answering all questions.

Mark Ellenwood and his employees were professional, prompt, neat and did a great job. The equipment that was recommended is perfect for our dark house on a very dark street. They were also able to repair our outdoor ceiling fan and light which were not working. Mark suggested products that would last a long time and are an assess to the safety and beauty of our home. We couldn't be happier.

Received a thorough and fair quote from Mark. Chose him because he went above and beyond, making great suggestions that we had not even considered. Luis arrived promptly and did GREAT work - going beyond what was outlined in the contract, and without charging us extra. Everything was done professionally, on time and exactly as agreed in the contract. A truly excellent service. We will be using Ellenwood Electric for all of our future electri.al needs. Can't recommend them highly enough.

The Ellenwood crew is very professional, competent and efficient. The work was done as initially discussed and contracted, on the dates as scheduled. All of the work was done to my expectations or beyond, and I have a very high standard. Everything looks and works great! In fact, I already have them scheduled to come back to change out some outlets and additional fixtures. They also were excellent at cleaning up after themselves--all debris was put in recycling and trash totes. Very knowledgable and willing to share relevant information. Because they are very busy, you may have to wait a bit to be put on their schedule, however, they are worth the wait.
