BRAD BROWN ELECTRIC

Description of Work: Retired the old knob and tube on the third floor. Replaced light in a closet

Description of Work: Unable to get a hold of the provider for the work I need done. I got one reply on Angie's List asking if I still needed the work to which I replied yes and gave contact info, but have received no response after more than a week. I also left a voicemail. If I ever hear back I will update this review.

Description of Work: Sealed meter box to prevent water from entering into basement electrical panel and inspected electrical panel as required for a sales agreement.

Description of Work: Wired a ceiling fan; required creation of a junction box in a tight attic space.

Description of Work: Excellent response to emergency electrical outage in 80% of house. Owner is disabled, so lighting is crucial. Initially believed to be circuit breaker problem, but turned out to require tracing outage to wire chewed by mice. Tracking required working in crowded quarters. Associate was quiet, cheerful, efficient. No $$ yet as additional smaller jobs to be performed this month,

Description of Work: This is an example of a provider who could have taken advantage of my lack of understanding of electricity beyond the basics, but instead gave me some free advice and saved me a service call. Brad himself answered when I phoned yesterday, (this was my first call to Brad Brown Electric). All the outlets on two walls of my kitchen weren't working. I described several symptoms that led up to the outage. Brad offered to come and check it out, but he also gave me the option to troubleshoot it myself. He described the steps to take and exactly what to do. Everything is working and back to normal. Brad was very pleasant on the phone and easily diagnosed the problem. I admired his professionalism and honesty. What he doesn't yet know is that we also need some other electrical work done: installing outlets in two fireplaces for gas inserts. We will ask him for an estimate - stay tuned...

Description of Work: I contacted BRAD BROWN ELECTRIC

Description of Work: We had a fancy imported ceiling fixture partly come apart. Brad came out late the afternoon after other jobs, assessed the situation and returned 2 days later (earlier than promised) to fix it, It went well and quickly, despite a rather unusual and annoying fixture design. Very professional and accommodating, as in past.

Description of Work: We had an outdoor lamp post that was not not getting electricity. Brad and his assistant took the time to proerly troubleshoot the problem , corrected it, and cleaned up nicely after the job. I would highly recommend their work.

Description of Work: Organized a special appointment to have him review the job and quote which meant I had to take time out of my day to meet with him. He appeared to be professional albeit very young. He spent 30+ minutes revieweing and taking notes. He said he would be back to me in a couple of days and well before the end of the week with a quote. That's the last I heard from him

Description of Work: Brad and Steve performed various services including installing GFI's in various locations, grounding the water meter, bonding hot, cold and gas pipes, installing two lights in the basement that had been at the top of the stairs, installing an additional junction box, and relocating outlet locations in the basement. Brad and Steve were very professional, personable, thorough, and highly competent. We highly recommend them and will continue to use Brad's services in the future.

Description of Work: My grand mom had an emergency with her electric box. She got an estimate from Some other electrician before she saw Brad. This other electrician found out it was an insurance claim eye balled the problem and slapped my grand mom with A price never explaining what the problem was or what caused it. Brad came out did a detailed inspection and found the cause of the problem turned out squirrels had caused the damage. Brad fixed the damage and took the steps to prevent it from happening again. He also came in under the cost of my grand mom's first estimate.

Description of Work: I contracted with Verizon to have Fios installed. Someone there told me I needed an outlet within 10 feet of the main circuit breaker box (there were as many answers from Verizon as people I talked to). I called Brad, prepared to have him install an outlet, having vaguely remembered a conversation the first time he was here when he asked me if I wanted an outlet in that part of the basement and I couldn't think of a reason I would need one so said no. Brad said that he remembered that I indeed did have an outlet in that area, not as close as Verizon told me , but at least there was one, and it could be used with an extension cable if necessary. If a separate outlet was really needed, he could come over after the holidays. Skeptic that I am, I had him stay on the phone line while I went to the basement, and sure enough, there was an outlet that looked usable. Bottom line was Verizon was able to use this outlet with no extra cables or extension cords and I didn't need a new one. Brad's memory on MY basement was better than mine and he saved me money by not immediately agreeing with Verizon that I needed to spend more money unnecessarily. That's professionalism!

Description of Work: A few small jobs.

Description of Work: Brad and Steve were very prompt, professional, courteous and did a great job changing out a recessed light in my shower and installing a recessed fan light. they also had to re-configure the panel to change the circuit breaker to a GFI. They did not complain despite having to go into my attic during the heat wave in July thorough a small crawl space.I would definitely use Brad again!!

Description of Work: Brad is a delight, he came by and checked out a problem with a socket and while he was there looked around to make sure our 150 yr old house was in good electrical shape!

Description of Work: Brad Brown was overpriced for the small job

Description of Work: Called Brad Brown for an electrical problem in the kitchen. He answered the phone, discussed the problem, called back to schedule the very next day. Responsiveness was outstanding! Brad and his assistant John arrived promptly, and they diagnosed a mal functioning GFI outlet and a bad breaker. Their professionalism, cleanliness, communications, and personableness were outstanding! They completed the work within an hour and the total cost was fair. I'll happily use them again without hesitation, They are young, attentive, and very capable.
