Tom is exceedingly professional. We have used him in the past and will continue to do so in the future. He does each job according to code. When he finishes a task, we know everything is safe and perfectly done. He is very exacting and meticulous. Tom is also very personable, prompt and punctual. We recommend him without reservation! If you want a job done well, and at a reasonable rate, call Tom at Berea Electric. You will NOT regret it!

Tom arrived at the time he said he would. He identified and repaired an electrical problem for lighting that was not working (both inside and outside fixtures). He also did a nice job of caulking our newly installed outside lights. Inside, Tom replaced a ceiling fan that no longer worked with a new ceiling light fixture. Tom worked quickly, explained what he did, and gave us his Angie's List member discount. If we ever need electrical work done in the future, we will definitely call this company.

Excellent. Tom was a very nice gentleman and a true professional. He quickly and efficiently diagnosed the issue with the outdoor outlet and replaced it. He also explained what the issue was and why it happened. I would highly recommend Tom/Berea Electric.

He said it would be the end of the day or the following for the estimate to be complete and he would call. No mention of a written estimate. A week later and no estimate or word back. We are going with the other electrician. He was nice. Seemed to be knowledgeable. When no notes were taken! It is a fairly large project with some major parts. The electrician we are going with is dividing it into 3 sections or phases even. He drives an old ambulance, so do not be surprised when he shows up. I was a surprised.
Description of Work: Called for an estimate and schedule for Tuesday morning. Called on Monday to say they could come then (it was about 9:45 am), and he said it would take about 15 minutes. I told him I had another electrician scheduled for 11:00 so as long as he was fast it would be fine. He arrived about 10:30, and so did the other electrician who arrived early. Awkward experience with both there for an estimate at the same time for the same projects.

Called Berea electric on a Monday and set up a 9:30am appointment for Wednesday. Showed up right on time and got to work. Did an excellent job of running all the wires and installing fixture. Not an easy job I must say. Tom's a great guy and very informative. Have used Berea Electric in the past and will use them again when needed,

What a great experience! We wanted a ceiling fan installed in the family room but there was no wiring to do so. We called BEREA ELECTRIC for an estimate. We were given a reasonable estimate and then asked about installing an exterior security light for the back of the house. Again, a very reasonable quote. We were given a quote for the whole job and a start date. BEREA ELECTRIC was right on time! The work was done in a few hours. BEREA ELECTRIC is personable, tidy and respectful. We would not hesitate to call on BEREA ELECTRIC again or to recommend BEREA ELECTRIC to our neighbors and friends. We are very pleased!

Some of the projects have not been so easy. He's professional, gets the job done and is always honest, pragmatic and easy to work with. I also like that he explains the installation process to me in a way that I can easily understand. We plan to work with him for many years to come.

My wife and I gave Tom a written list of issues we wanted to have looked at in the house we are currently in escrow with. Also on that list we asked to be given estimates on the work. Tom was made well aware of everything we were desiring. He responded well to our phone calls and emails, and showed up on time to his appt. But then he flat out refused to complete the evaluation we had asked for, and further refused to give an estimate on the work. I had specifically mentioned an insulation/wiring conflict I wanted looked at in the attic. He refused to do this. If it was not within his capability or something he felt uncomfortable doing, he should have mentioned it during our initial phone call. He refused to give estimates because of the chance that we might use him for the work, which he wanted no part of. I've no idea why someone with bills to pay would not want work, but given the negative reviews on his billing, we wouldn't have chosen him anyway. We just wanted a ball park in order to move forward with the negotiations on the house. Tom stalled this with his unprofessional behavior. Tom is Berea Electric. One person. So, his range of knowledge and abilities may be limited. His schedule as well. All things to consider before hiring. Oh, and as I am writing this, I recall my initial phone call to what I thought was the company line, was met with a simple, "Hello". I thought I had perhaps misdialed. I had to ask if I had reached Berea Electric. A minor complaint, I know, but it speaks volumes to Tom's lack of professionalism.

Response from Berea Electric
It is the general policy of Berea Electric to provide free estimates to potential customers. During this estimate, I evaluated items from a list I received the day before. The last item was an attic insulation/wiring conflict. Access was through a ceiling hatch, in a closet filled with the absent owners personal belongings. Visual inspection revealed a small attic with excessive fiberglass insulation. These hindrances were not readily apparent in my previous review of their home inspection report. I decided not to enter the attic or disturb their belongings. I explained that I would have needed my environmental suit with respirator, and that the very tight working spaces would be problematic. I now began to perceive I could have difficulty satisfying them or meeting their needs. I decided to decline the work. I feel that giving an estimate, when I have no intention of accepting the work, would be less than honorable. Additionally, I do not quote costs for other contractors. I thanked the client for the opportunity to consider the job, and left them with the contact information of another electrician. On the job calls are routed to my cell phone so clients can always talk to a live electrician. Caller ID showed a New York area code. I did not expect it to be a customer. I apologize for the offense.

Overall, he was fast and the chandelier is working fine. Just priced too high for so simple a job.
Description of Work: The only complaint I have is the price. I should have asked before making the appointment how much changing out a chandelier would be. This was a simple Ikea chandelier. Nothing fancy and the wiring was already done. He only needed to swap out the old for the new one which only took 10-15min. Job should have cost no more than 60$ at the most. I live in Cleveland so it's not as though I was that far a driving distance. Other than that, he was very professional and responsive, but priced too high for so simple a job.

They were very professional and they helped us get some parts. We were trying to get things done all at one time; by talking to them on the phone we were able to get what we needed part-wise so that when they came they could come one time and get everything done and save us the expense. They were very helpful in providing information about what we needed so that when he came out he could take care of everything at one time.
Description of Work: I used Berea Electric. They replaced my lamppost outside, they installed a ceiling fan and replaced a ceiling fan, and they replaced an outlet on our deck in the backyard.

Tom came out, inspected the work to be performed, and gave a great estimate. He took the time to examine the breaker box's condition, evaluated several options and found a way to feed the line with minimal disruption (and cost). I found Tom to be very meticous, clean, professional, and courteous. He even covered up all the shelves in the room he was working so they would get all dusty!

On a Saturday evening, we noticed smoke coming out of the breaker box in the basement. We called Berea Electric based on the excellent reviews from Angie's List. Tom told my husband what to do and said he would be at our house shortly. When he arrived, he examined the box, and replaced all the faulty breakers. He was very professional and friendly. We would call him again for any electrical repair.

I've used him several times and the service was wonderful. He works by himself and he's very nice, approachable and a very hard worker. He's the only person I would trust to do my wiring and I would leave my door open for him to gain access to my home. That's how much I trust him.

Owner Tom Wozencraft came to do the work. He was on time, professional and thorough. He was open to any questions and very thorough in answering each one. He did an excellent job of cleaning up afterwards (a critical operation in the eyes of my wife) and I would be happy to recommend him to anyone.
