We have been pleased with their work each time they have come out. I would recommend them and hire them again.
Description of Work: In the most recent work they installed sensor lights on our garage and back entrance way. Some time ago, I can't recall the exact date, they installed a fan in the ceiling of the kitchen and an exhaust fan in our 3rd floor bathroom.

We thought his price was fair. He came in a very reasonable time. We had no problems with this work. We were happy with this work and we would call him out again.
Description of Work: He was doing work at a place I volunteered, that's how I learned of him and liked him. So we called him to our house and he installed outlets among several other things.

Everything was fine. The work they did looks very professional to me. They didn't paint the backboard though. They were punctual and professional, I have no complaints about anything. I have nothing to compare their price to, but I would imagine it is in line with others. I would use them again.
Description of Work: They were recommended to me by a furnace company I use. They upgraded our electrical system and put in a 100 amp circuit breaker box.

My experience with them has been great. When I call I get a response back in a timely fashion. They set up a time to come out and look at what the work is. He usually emails me an estimate for the work and if I decide to go with it, they set a date. They are usually here on time when they say they will be here, but if they are delayed they will call. He and his helper clean up after the work is done. I very much appreciate his professional nature. If he runs into a job that might have additional costs, he will always let us know and he offers a couple of options for us. Depending on the project, I will continue to use them in the future.
Description of Work: The first job we hired him for was to upgrade our electrical breaker box. We were so happy with this job that we hired him again. The last job they did involved installing a switch in a ceiling fan so that it could be operated remotely. They also installed grounded outlets in 5 areas in the house where we have electronic equipment such as computers. Since this is an older home they had to rewire some things and attach them to our box. They also installed a new light on our deck. They also repaired a dryer vent for me. He has also installed an attic fan and ceiling fan light.

Everything went very well. Bruce arrived with his son and they straightened out the wiring problem in the basement. They also reconnected the problem phone jacks. They were very efficient and professional and completed the work in about 2 hours. Bruce is very pleasant to work with, and he performed as he said he would (arrived on time, etc.). My only suggestion is that he responded more promptly to messages. When you leave a message on his office line, he probably won't call back until the next day (because he's out on jobs and picks up messages in the evening). Perhaps he can just update his greeting to explain this fact, or he can provide an "emergency" number.
Description of Work: I was having problems with some of my phone jacks. I had a suspicion that some of the wiring in the basement wasn't properly connected to the line running into the house. Bruce confirmed that assessment upon his inspection and I asked him to fix the problem.

Bruce had said that they would be there between 9 and 9:30, and they arrived promptly at that time. All of the guys were very friendly and willing to answer questions (re: the work being performed). I felt at ease with them right away, and they worked diligently to complete the tasks at hand. I told Bruce that I will recommend him to family and friends (without hesitation) because of the positive experience that I had with them, and the quality of their work.

Bruce and Ken are absolutely great. This is the second job they have done for me and I will only use HARE electric for my future jobs. They are polite, friendly, on time, professional, and respectful. Great Customer Service with a smile on their faces.
Description of Work: Bruce and Ken and Bruce's son have installed four ceiling fans in my house. They installed one in the ceiling of my living room that had been patched over and I was thrilled that they could install a fan there. They also installed two European fans in my kitchen and a really large fan in my Master Bedroom. These guys are great.

Bruce Hare, the owner, came out for the estimate. He did a good job and was very professional. He went home and typed up the estimate on the computer and then mailed it out to me. The only reason I didn't go with this company was because another company I previously used came out to do the work.

Bruce and his helper were completely professional. I received a call back from my initial inquiry the same day, scheduled a convenient time for a free estimate, and had a quote in my email the next morning. Hare always arrived on time, completed the work within the estimate's parameters and in a very professional manner. I can't say enough good things about this company. Hire them.
Description of Work: Hare Electric ran wiring to a room being converted to a home office. They installed two new wall outlets, replaced one outdated outlet with a grounded outlet, put in overhead lighting, and a wall switch. All this required running wire and installing equipment that was nonexistent before, in a 100 year home that presented unique challenges.

BRUCE AND KEN WERE FRIENDLY, ANSWERED ALL MY QUESTIONS QUICKLY AND SEEMED EXTREMELY COMPETENT AT THEIR PROFESSION. THE JOB WAS AN OLDER HOME JOB AND THEY COMPLETED IT WITH A MINIMAL AMOUNT OF CLEAN-UP AND REPAIR FOR US TO DO AS THEY WERE INSTALLING ELECTRICAL WIRING WHERE THERE HAD BEEN NONE BEFORE AND HAD TO GO INTO AND THROUGH THE CEILING IN SEVERAL PLACES. WHEN THEY CAME OUT TO GIVE US AN ESTIMATE, THEIR DESCRIPTION OF HOW THEY COULD ACCOMPLISH WHAT WE WANTED WAS THE LEAST INVASIVE AND IT REMAINED SO ONCE THEY WERE INTO THE JOB. WE WERE EXTREMELY PLEASED WITH THE FINISHED RESULT.
Description of Work: BRUCE AND HIS PARTNER INSTALLED 7 RECESSED LIGHTS IN THE DEN WHICH PREVIOUSLY HAD NO CEILING LIGHTING. THEY TOOK THE FIXTURE FROM THE UPSTAIRS HALLWAY AND INSTALLED IT ON AN ENCLOSED PORCH. THEY TOOK THE FIXTURE FROM ANOTHER AREA AND PUT THAT IN THE UPSTAIRS HALL. THEY PUT ALL SEVEN RECESSED LIGHTS ON A DIMMER.

BRUCE WAS A TRUE PRO. WHEN HE CAME IN FOR THE ESTIMATE HE TOOK DIGITAL PICTURES OF ALL THE WORK TO BE DONE. HIS ESTIMATE WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE THREE WE HAD. HE SHOWED UP WHEN PROMISED, EXPLAINED ANYTHING WE HAD QUESTIONS ON, DID VERY DELIBERATE WORK AND CLEANED UP THOROUGHLY. HE WAS FLEXIBLE WITH HIS SCHEDULE, (WE HAD A WATER LINE BREAK DURING THE JOB AND HE PUT OFF WORK UNTIL WE GOT THAT FIXED) AND ALWAYS ACCESSIBLE BY PHONE OR E-MAIL. HE AND HIS HELPER, KEN SEEMED TO HAVE GREAT KNOWLEDGE OF WORKING IN AN OLDER HOME, WITH AN ANSWER FOR EVERY DIFFICULTY THEY ENCOUNTERED. BRUCE WILL BE MY FIRST CALL ANYTIME AND MY FIRST REFERRAL TO ANYONE ELSE.
Description of Work: UPGRADED OUR FUSE BOX TO A CIRCUIT BREAKER, INSTALLED FLUORESCENT LIGHTS IN LAUNDRY ROOM AND BASEMENT, INSTALLED 6 NEW OUTLETS AND INSTALLED A CEILING FAN WITH A SWAG.
