They provided unbelievably amazing service, trustworthy, and honest. I would use them again in future.
Description of Work: I used Hare Electric for lighting in October 2012. The man came out and he saw that we have no heater in the house. He went to his house and brought his own small personal generator to my house. He didn't charge me anything for tank of gas and the generator.

I called Hare Electric because my mother-in-law has had them do electrical work for her and the rating was excellent on Angie's list. Since no one answered their phone I had to leave a message but never received a call back. I called another company which responed very quickly, had a great estimate so I had the job done. I consider it rude for this company not to at least acknowledge my phone message. Guess he really didn't need the work!

When people came out to do the work, I had bought the wrong part and they were not helpful and did not assist in getting the right part. Therefore I did not call them back.
Description of Work: I had him do some work at my daughter's home and everything was done. I called him to do work here, but I had to call him a few times.

There was a day when there was an issue with the telephone lines. The message that was given to people calling was that the phone had been disconnected. The problem was resolved the same day. I try to return all of my phone calls withing a 48 hour time period.

Everything works fine now. I would recommend them.
Description of Work: My electric lawnmower, working off of electricity from cords to the garage, frequently stopped working while I was in the front yard. I had to drag the mower into the back yard where the garage was. I would check everything. The mower worked. Out to the front I would go, only to have the stopping repeated constantly. Hare Electric came out and replaced something in the electric box. The next time I mowed, I had a repeat of the mower stopping constantly. I was very upset. I called Mr. Hare and he came out and replaced whatever his guys had replaced previously without charge. He wanted a satisfied customer. Just to be on the safe side, I replaced my power cords. They turned out to be the problem.

He did an excellent job. He walked three floors, from the basement to the third floor, checking everything. He was very informative and told me where I needed to change out a couple things, which we were able to do. I will be using him again.

I put in an emergency call to re-hang downed power lines from Hurricane Sandy. Within 30 minutes, the owner, Bruce returned my call and had his crew onsite within 1.5 hours. They repaired the lines quickly and for less than I expected to pay under the circumstances. Now I can get a tree company in the driveway to remove a fallen tree. I rate this as stellar service considering the widespread damage caused by the Hurricane. I will definitely use Hare Electric again and not hesitate to recommend them.

Great experience, very professional.
Description of Work: We had some outlets not working and some lights that were dim downstairs. 2young men were sent out, very knowledgeable and thorough. After patiently trying to find the problem, they did, and fixed it completely. I feel that they did an excellent job, the cost was extremely reasonable and I would definitely use Hare Electric again and would refer them to my friends.

Overall, it went very well. In this case, I was treated as though I were spending 10 times the amount I did. The electrician arrived on time, was pleasant and it was done quickly. I will undoubtedly use this service again.
Description of Work: We had a new receptical put in, not a big project but one I cannot do. Additionally, it's sometimes difficult to get an electrician to come out and do a very small project.

It didn't go at all - very poor communication and response - none at all really . this service should consider a phone that pages out their phone messages -
Description of Work: Contractor never showed up for scheduled appointment, never called - no one answered the phone at the office after trying to call repeatedly - no one returned my calls. This was more than an hour after the scheduled time. I was told someone would be here between 8:30 and 8:45 a.m at 9:50 a.m - no phone call, no response. Very disappointed in this service since it is listed on here as A - I did not find that to be the case. I have called another contractor, who answers his phone and he will come out today to get the job done. Thank you.

My husband had already purchased gutter heaters but thought the job to be too big for him to carryout. Bruce came out to see what needed to be done. Bruce sent his crew out the next day to perorm the work. Initially they seemed to have some issues (not sure if it was with one another or with what needed to be done). There was a slight problem with installation as we do not have a shingled roof in the rear of the house. Between roofing nails and asphalt glue the heaters were installed. Bruce came out to the house to check on progress. The easier part was installation of the electrical switch to control the heaters. Things look great - we just have to wait until the snow flies to see how well they work. We will definitely call Bruce for any electrical projects we have in the future.
Description of Work: Hare Electric installed gutter heaters on our upper roof. They also installed a switch on the outside to control the heaters.

Hare Electric was helpful, on time, on estimate, and a pleasure to work with. They also understood our desire to ensure that all was working well electrically but to also be affordable on the price.
Description of Work: My teenage son inherited a house from a relative. it needed work. We had Hare Electric come in early to assess the needs and give us recommendations. They reviewed all the major electrical systems, determined the house was without a ground and that it needed a new electrical "mast." They did the work well, on time and then tested all other outlets and connections.

After I called Hare Electric I receved a prompt response and was given an estimate of $95.00 for the labor to install the lighting fixture that I had purchased from Lowe"s Mr. Hare told me the names of the two gentleman that would arrive to do the work. These workers arrived on time, completed the work in a workman like manner. The cleaned up all debris and disposed the old fixture. We could not be more satisifed with this experience with Hare Electric.. I will call the company for all future electrical work.
Description of Work: Called Hare Electric to replace the lighting fixture in our utility room. Also the switch for the lighting fixture. The scope of the work included replacement of existing 4" florescent fixture with a new fixture and replacement of the wall switch.

Bruce needed to reschedule the first appointment...no problem with that. But then we subsequently had it scheduled for a weekday and he said he'd be there between 11 and 11:30. After waiting for 40 minutes (it's a unoccupied rental property and had to drive there), I called him at 11:40 and left a voice mail. Waited until 11:45 and then left. He called me back at 11:57 and said he'd be there in 10-15 minutes with no apology or explanation why. I explained I had already left and wasn't inclined to do business with him. What would you have done?
Description of Work: Was looking to get an outlet moved for an over-the-counter microwave.

The main circuit breaker for the house tripped four times in one afternoon. We explained that the dryer and air conditioner were the only appliances going each time. They checked the circuit board and tightened a few lines. They checked the line to the dryer. When checking the air conditioner, they found the fuse box was for a 30 amp and the compressor called for a 50 amp. They replaced the box and informed me they thought I should call the electric company to check the connections at the house and the pole as they appeared to be old. The electric company did replace the line and both connections. We have not had any problems since. The electricians came out the same day I called and explained everything to me as they went along. I would definite call them again for any electrical work.
Description of Work: The electricians replaced the air conditioner's 30 amp disconnect with a 50 amp disconnect which the compressor needed.
