Ken Lanier was professional, and pleasant to work with, from start to finish. Installation of everything went smoothly, and all lights are working well. The estimate of the job was very reasonable, with no hidden costs. All questions I asked him, were answered intelligently and clearly. If I asked for anything that may incur additional work and cost, Ken would let me know up front, prior to execution of work. Would definitely hire again.

One of the co-owners of Advanced Electrical (Ken) came out to inspect a short in the house that kept tripping one of our circuit breakers. He was able to find the problem after going through a check list for possible causes of the short. He took his time to explain all the steps he was taking to find the issue and even gave a few tips on detecting and fixing simple electrical problems. A week later I had Ken come back to install two outdoor outlets, run wire for a new security light and replace two other security lights. As expected Ken was super professional and was able to explain the process as he was doing the job. I am usually skeptical when it comes to hiring a new electrician, contractor, etc... Ken put eased those fears as he was absolutely professional and ready to answer any question we had for him. If you need an electrician Advanced Electrical and Ken is the company to hire. We will use him again and be sure to recommend him to all of our friends.
Description of Work: Short in he house. Installed two new outdoor outlets, mounted a new motion sensor security light and replaced two old motion sensor lights.

Fantastic! Ken was very knowledgeable, our home is an old home with old cloth covered wires in very old boxes...he was informative and careful, explained what the problem was and what he was doing, and resolved the issue competently and efficiently. When he quoted the price, he let me know that it could be more expensive depending on what the issue was--but since he found the issue simple, he charged the price quoted over the phone...I call that under-promising and over-delivering, which I appreciate, very professional. I will definitely use again in the future and highly recommend.

Amazing. I would definitely hire him again! I called him for one problem and he quickly fixed about 5 of them and I was able to breathe a huge sigh of relief.
Description of Work: I needed a new plug created for my dryer. I also needed my dishwasher to be wired and for my socket where my air conditioner was to be upgraded to a hire voltage. He also did some necessary electrical work so that my microwaves could be functional. He did all the work for me quickly. He arrived the same day I called and was very responsive..

I had a very good experience with Ken. He came at the appointed time, quickly assessed how to resolve my electrical problem, and fixed the issue on the spot. Before working on the project, Ken gave me a price for the job, clearly stating the cost of each service. Ken was very neat, efficient, and communicative; when he finished the job he carefully explained exactly what he did and showed me how the outlet worked. On top of that, Ken is personable, good-humored, and friendly! What more could you ask for?
Description of Work: I needed two electrical outlets near a sink made "live".

As to price, he was very reasonable. He patiently explained our options from least to most expensive. He was fastidious, patient, intelligent, and exuded integrity. We are extremely pleased with him and with his work, and would definitely hire him again.
Description of Work: We had 2 dead outlets in the bedroom (because the previous owner of our co-op apartment had substandard wiring installed). Ken found the root of the problem, fixed it, and got the outlets working. He also installed 4 additional new outlets we needed; and extended some cable for us.

The electrician, Kenneth, was there on the time he said he would be. He was very professional and explained the work that was needed for us to understand. He completed the work and he cleaned up anything that he made dirty. He left the area clean and tidy. It was a pleasure working with him and I would hire him again if anything else is needed. His prices were reasonable and fair. When he scheduled the appointments he looked after the family needs first. Thank you Kenneth for a job well done!

Ken was available and came over within a few hours and figured out what the problem was. He was able to fix part of it right away, and the rest after we got a necessary part. It was easy to reach him and schedule the second visit. He was running a little bit late and had the courtesy to call and let us know. He works quickly and is cheerful and friendly. We will definitely call him again. Highly recommended.

First Ken came in to our house to explore what needed to be done. He gave us a couple of options, and after discussiing with him pro and con and the cost of each option, we decided to replace the lights. He bought the new lights (brackets and light bulbs) and returned a few days later and installed them. They are the newest energy efficient lights and they are great. We'd definitely recommend him and would hire again.

As always, Ken found ways to minimize the invasiveness and cost of the work. Everything that could be tested was in working order before he left. When the dryer was later installed, and it turned out that its wiring wasn't what I'd thought, Ken came back immediately and adjusted the dryer's wiring to work with the outlet he had installed. He's a skilled problem-solver and a good guy to boot.
Description of Work: Ken added a new dryer outlet that also required new capacity to the circuit board. He also traced and repaired the shorts that had been created by roof leaks. This is the second or third time I've hired him -- he's now the only number I call when I need big or small electrical work in my small multifamily building.

Site says free estimate, the man on the phone told me it would be a $285.00 to find the problem. That's an estimate right? They have to find the problem in order to give me an estimate dont they? Its just a disingenuous gimmick.

coming to your home and finding the problem and helping you understand your problem isn't a estimate it's work ..read the website carefully before calling...free estimate doesn't mean free work ..Thanks

He was very professional and knowledgeable. I asked a thousand questions and he answered them in a way I could understand them and I have to tell you he was very patient. He came several times since it was a lot of work to be done and he always showed up in a timely manner. He was very pleasant to work with and he even called me two weeks after finishing his work to asked if everything was okay and to call him if I had any concern. I will definitely use him again and I will recommend him also.
Description of Work: Replaced fuses in the electrical box. Made a new 220 volt outlet. Replace most of my lamps and outlets throughout the house.

We supplied the light switch and lampholder so we were charged a flat charge for each job. Kenneth installed the new light switch in the hallway which cost $100. and installed the porcelain lampholder with chain in the boiler room, and this job cost $100. Both jobs were a success and we finally had light! Kenneth was very professional, punctual, and polite. He was thorough, took his time, and made sure the electrical work was done properly. He even gave us a 45 day guarantee on his work!
