He was prompt, knowledgeable, friendly and efficient. Charging a decent hourly rate he finished sooner than the estimate called for. I would use them again in the future.
Description of Work: He came in and did a number of electric related tasks for us, ranging from basic (installing new lighting fixtures) to more advanced (re-wiring some electric and fixing a problem with our fuse box).

I have a 40 year old house with aluminum wiring. Some of the switches were working erratically. Curry came to the house twice to repair the problem. After the first repair, I still experienced some problems. The repairman came promptly and took care of the problem. I am satisfied with the work that was done.

Service was exceptional - got actual estimates of cost for items and work done on the phone. Didn't have to wait for visit with estimate before being able to compare costs. They have my repeat business now - you don't get that from most places. They were fine with my personal purchase of fixture vs. buying from them only. They scheduled for me right away - worked with my time available. They called back to confirm time and the tech was waiting for me when I arrived from work. Super professional, very friendly, gave me honest critique on what I had purchased - removed old fixture and installed new one - tested and went over set up and instructions for model I had purchased. He answered questions about other electrical jobs I was thinking about and I was so impressed. He was quick and then cleaned up after. Nice to have a great company with reliable techs that is local.

Mike was great. Very nice! Answered all questions asked, very knowledgeable, experienced professional. I highly recommend Curry Electric, especially Mike!
Description of Work: Had purchased new washer and dryer only to discover that the electrical plug for the dryer was for a stove! After some Internet research, discovered that a professional was needed to double-check the electrical wires to make sure they matched up with the plug purchased at a local Home Depot. Mike arrived and immediately got to work. He checked the plug, outlet, wiring, Breaker-box. Mike even did a multi point home inspection as an added service. Great work!

This is my second experience with Curry Electric. 4 years ago I selected this company to update my copper wiring throughout the house and was very satisfied with their service. This time around I couldn't have been more pleased with the service I received from my electrician, John. He was punctual, very polite, professional, and finished the job quickly and efficiently. This has reinforced my positive feelings about Curry Electric and I would definitely ask to have John in the future when I need electrical service.

Curry Electric is great. This work was done on a foreclosure we bought and renovated. A lot of the wiring was messed up and he fixed it all. We have a couple of rental properties and Curry does all our electric work for us and is always very nice to coordinate with tenants and bill us. We will continue to use them in the future.
Description of Work: They did several jobs all on the same day. Restored power to the dishwasher (which my contractor could not seem to figure out), found problem with light fixture in entryway and fixed, replaced a pull chain to a light, located a bad connection in basement lighting and restored and tested all of the outlets.

Upon installing a new dishwasher, we found the wiring burned behind the dishwasher and couldn't connect the appliance. I called Curry Electric, who came out and replaced the damaged wiring, putting new wiring in from the switch to the dishwasher. They were very professional and did a great job.

Very bad experience, want to forget the incident. Had to have complete work done twice. Would not recommend this contractor for electric work. Did return second time to complete job to my satisfaction. Do not use any oral commitements at all, make sure you have a written contract with specfic details what you want done.

The project could not have gone better.
Description of Work: Mike from Curry Electric did an excellent job for us. He phoned to advise he would be a few minutes late for our appointment. He added five can lights to our family room with the required electrical work. He also replaced the trim on the existing five can lights. No touch up work was required to the ceiling. Beautiful work! I will definitely use Curry Electric again should I need further electrical work.

The light switch operated the exhaust fan and the mirror, and I wanted to separate it so that I would not always have the fan on when I had the light on. They did a multitude of things. They worked all day. Two people came in the morning and stayed all day. They didn't even break for lunch. They did the job and I was very pleased with their service. Their price was good too. I had gotten a previous estimate that was higher. Their estimate was based on hourly wage and materials. The person that I called came out right away to give me the estimate. I think they gave the estimate on a Tuesday and came out and did the work on a Friday. They completed everything before they left, and I was very pleased with that. I recommended them to my daughter and she had them do work for her. She was also pleased with them.
Description of Work: I used Curry Electric Inc. to install new lights in a dark area under the basement steps outside that was not there. They made some corrections in some electrical work on the inside and installed a light in a closet where there was no light.

They have always been prompt, professional, reasonably priced, and skilled technicians.
Description of Work: I have used Curry Electric for the last 19 years, for jobs big and small. This one was to replace an outlet in my garage, and to repair another in the back. In the past they have added exterior outlets, installed ceiling fans, re-wired circuits, and made general repairs.

They returned my initial call immediately and came out right away to give a free estimate. They are one of only 3-4 companies that do the copalum repairs I needed, and they gave me the lowest bid of the two companies that came out. One company wanted $100.00 to come out and give a bid, rebatable against order. The electricians showed up as scheduled to work on my aluminum wiring. They were friendly, courteous, and helpful, and they were happy to add a few extra electrical repairs at no extra cost. The job was done quickly and professionally at the price quoted. I would certainly use this company again.
Description of Work: This company repaired the aluminum wiring in my 2bedroom condo. It is called the copalum crimping method, where copper wiring is spliced into the aluminum wiring at all connections using a special crimping tool. This is the only method considered a permanent "fix" to the fire dangers associated with aluminum wiring. They were happy to fix my doorbell, change light fixtures and even add additional can lighting for only the cost of the materials. All service was completed as requested.

Ice storm broke a limb off tree, pulling the power line down "live" across our side door, tearing the weather head out of the brick. Curry needed to replace the weatherhead and cable and coordinate with the power company to re-connect. They were prompt, courteous and did a quality job with this. The part was only $45 and the labor was more than $490, but they were done on time. This was not an easy job, and they cleared away all the debris and old cable etc.

When I purchased a house built in the 1800's, I had a home inspector who told me the only "knob and tube" wiring contained in the house was in the ceilings and it wouldn't be too costly to replace. I had Curry come out and estimate for that work. Turns out, the entire house was still knob and tube wiring and everything electrical had to be replaced! Curry worked with me to make the project as economical as possible. The electricians did the work efficiently and as cost-effectively as possible. Electricians were here for a solid week to do the work(and worked diligently every minute of the time they were here). They came to the house on time every day and cleaned any mess they made. They are honest about the time and materials necessary to do any job(big or small)and use quality materials. The employees are extremely knowledgeable and are wonderful, caring people. Every time I need them, they have been there.
Description of Work: I have used Curry Electric for years. I have had them perform simple services, such as adding outlets and lights and complicated projects, such as completely rewiring a house built in the 1800's.

I was very happy with the productivity of the crew; originally only one electrician showed up, but the company quickly sent a second person to help due to the scope of the job. They offered sound advice and made sure I understood the pros and cons of each option. They multi-tasked well and accomplished a tremendous amount in a single day.
Description of Work: Installed close to 50 new outlets throughout 110 year old home (mix of 2 prong and GFI); cleaned up dangerous wiring in several places and installed new ceiling box/fan brace in one bedroom; disconnected unused circuits for pool equipment, window AC outlets and built-in bathroom heaters. Troubleshot garage panel and outside lamp post.

THE 2 GUYS HELPING HIM WERE YOUNG AND TENDED TO BE RUDE. THEY WERE A LITTLE SLOPPY WITH THEIR WIRE CLIPPINGS AND JACKETS. SOME OF THE NEW SWITCH PLATES WERE CROOKED AND ONE WAS CRACKED FROM OVER TIGHTENING. THEY WERE DONE ON TIME AND FOR LESS THAN THE ORIGINAL ESTIMATE.
