Reached Ed with first phone call. Estimated quickly with complete explanation of what was to be expected. Work was completed at a mutually agreeable time. Final cost was on low side of estimated range since there were no issues. Very satisfied.

Ed is extremely knowledgeable about his business and differentiates himself by being effective on the job but also very efficient taking only necessary steps to get the job done without offering services that are not needed. By his demeanor and how he made suggestions to keep things simple yet 100% effective%, I knew right way I would get the best service at a fair competitive price. He is very prompt to respond. He is the fastest of everyone I hired to have responded to my texts i.e. Within 3 minutes for both questions I sent him. Ed is impressive, honest simple go to person for your electrical needs, He earns a triple Arating from me for his job well done and I know I will not get ice dams and flooded kitchen this winter: He installed an led light that tells me when the cables are on and when they are off making the system very easy to operate. I recommended him to my neighbor right away and hope he also gets the business. Ed you rock and should be proud of the amazing ethical, honest and fair way you conduct your business, making your living with your customers smiley and happy!

Ed came out within a couple of days to give us an estimate (it could have been same day that I called but we weren't home). He was prompt, courteous, and above all else he came in at an excellent price! The work was done within a few days (again, could have been sooner, but our schedule was busy) and everything worked well! We would recommend Ed to anyone needing any type of electric work done.

Ok so we needed an electrician. Where to begin? Angie's list of course! Found Ed Cook - obviously this was my lucky day. Ed came over on Saturday to do the estimate, and came Monday evening after working all day to hang the chandeliers so I could be home to eyeball the hanging height, etc. However, Ed has 40 years of experience and was able to hang them perfectly - he didn't even need me! He is an expert in his field - he truly knows what he doing. And did I mention what a nice guy he is? I felt like I've known him forever. He took such good care of us - he truly loves what he does and he really knows his craft. When we finish the basement Ed is a no brainer. And the price? Unbelievable - he worked through the evening after a full day and didn't charge extra - hard worker and such a great guy. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ed Cook to anyone looking for an experienced electrician who really, truly, knows what he is doing!
Description of Work: Hung 2 chandeliers - one in the dining room; one in the foyer.

Ed was very friendly and easy to get on the phone. He gave us an inspection of the electrical system in our new house and gave us an honest evaluation of services that could be performed. We decided it would be best if we replaced an aging and under powered electric service panel and we wanted to have the worked finished before we moved in. Ed was very flexible in scheduling this job, especially since the move in/move out date changed a few times. Each time we had to make a change to the dates the house was available he was easy to contact and adapt to our plans. He also handled contacting our real estate agent to gain access to the house, since we were moving from out of town. He made the whole process very easy on us and the work very clean and the new service panel looks and works great!
Description of Work: Ed Cook upgraded our electrical service panel from 100 Amps to 200 Amps.

One of my smoke detectors started chirping in the middle of the night. I changed the battery but it would not stop. The next day I called Ed - he answered his phone immediately and I explained my problem. He came the same afternoon and disconnected the chirping alarm. We discussed the fact that the detectors were 10 years old and decided to replace them. He said he would get new ones and call me in a week or two. Two days later he called and came out the same day to replace them.
Description of Work: Replaced three hard-wired smoke detectors.

He wrote up a great report that I could use to get a new stove. The cord had been improperly installed because the outlet didn't suit. There was some heat damage to the stove that he also documented.

Ed and his helper were very punctual and arrived exactly at the time we agreed. I was pleased with their work ethic, as they got right to work and were very efficient. I also had one difficult room, which required installing recessed cans without have attic access. Ed had to cut open the ceiling, but minimized the amount of damage that was required. He even put the drywall pieces back up after he was finished. All I had to do was patch and paint. I am well aware how hard it is to find a reliable contractor who is honest and reasonbly priced, so I am having Ed and his helper come back to install a bath fan and do the wiring for my new kitchen renovation.
Description of Work: Installation of recessed cans in 2-story living room, bedroom and family room. Also installed ceiling fans in bedrooms, which previously only had switched recepticles.

Ed showed up in the morning, and promptly began getting his work area set up, for the removal of the old panel. He was very organized, and kept us informed of what he was doing, and shutting off power to each of the individual areas of the house. He was very accurate in the time estimate it would take to have the cables labeld, the old panel removed, and then to get the new panel installed and organized, including the whole house surge protection.
Description of Work: Ed responded very quickly to our request for service of needing a new electrical panel to be installed. He installed a new Siemens service panel, as well as a whole home surge protection system. He worked very efficiently, and cleaned up the work area, once the work was completed. We will definitely use Ed's services, again, and most definitely recommend him to others in our area, that need electrical work done.

After finding this company on Angie's, I called. The person taking the call was pleasant, and seemed to be interested in my job. He stated that he was busy at the moment, but that he would call back in a couple of days to set up an estimate. It's now been several weeks and I have never heard back from the company. Because of this, I found another provider.
Description of Work: Might or might not do good electrical work. Said they would call me back to discuss doing an estimate, but never heard from them again. Fortunately, I found another provider.
