Two of Jeff's outstanding electricians worked in my home on two separate occasions, once in December and on the date listed above. They removed and installed new lighting fixtures in my home and wired my basement with outlets. Since my building contractor only installed one double outlet for the entire basement. They protected their work area with tarps, they removed the old lighting fixtures and disposed of them for me. They took all the cardboard and recycled it and made sure they cleaned the work area when they completed each installation. They ran two separate circuits in the basement, they ran the wires and secured them to the overhead, much neater than the builder. The work was completed quickly and professionally and they brought energy saving LED bulbs for all the fixtures. We are very pleased with their work and I have used Werkheiser for many years and will continue to use them in the future and highly recommend them. Job Well Done!
Description of Work: Installed 4 ceiling lights and 3 pendant lights. Installed 5 outlets in the basement and whole house circuit breaker, rewired light switches in basement.

Everything went very well. I was so relieved to have this taken care of so quickly and efficiently. Phillip was very professional and knew what he was doing.
Description of Work: On Tuesday evening before Thanksgiving, I discovered that there was a problem with the thermostat in my family room. I have baseboard electric heat, so this caused the heat to be on high with no way to shut it down. With family coming for Thanksgiving, I was anxious to get this taken care of. I sent a message via Angie's list and someone from Werkheiser called the next day. Phillip from Werkheiser came out just after noon on Wednesday (as promised). He identified the problem and replaced the thermostat with a more current model very quickly.

Jeff performed the electrical work for a kitchen renovation. Work included adding a new subpanel electrical box, running new L.E.D. lights under the cabinets, installing dimmer switches and other odd jobs. Overall he was very professional, quick, clean and respectful, all while dodging three very curious cats.
Description of Work: Jeff installed a new electrical box and updated lighting in several rooms.

I have had the pleasure of working with Jeff Werkheiser many time for various projects. They always do a great job. Jeff comes out to give the estimate and is very knowledgeable and is great with help and suggestions. His employees handle the installation work. They technicians were friendly and respectful. Always used a mat in their working area. I would highly recommend Werkheiser electric for any and all projects to neighbors and friends. Thanks for your help!
Description of Work: Installed new recessed ceiling lights and fan. Replace and added receptacles. Replaced existing ceiling lighting and switches.

Good guy who tried to be helpful but seemed unsure of himself.
Description of Work: Prompt and helpful but did not seem very knowledgeable. Unsure of how to fix the problem and took more time that it should have in my opinion.

He came on the 19th of December at 1:30 PM to give us an estimate. He came on time and went through everything with us and explained what he would do. Again though the estimate was just way too high for us to pick him to do our electrical.

I had a wonderful electrician for years. He had done my 200 amp upgrade, outlets added etc. My house is 100 years old and originally had a 60 amp service. My electrician blew me off, so I needed a new one asap. I called three and Jeff got back to me within 3 hours. He arrived that day to walk through and get a list of the work. this was a Thursday. He said the estimates would be done by Monday and they could start Wednesday If I approved. Everything went off without a hitch. This work involved cutting holes in plaster both ceilings and walls. They laid blankets down and cleaned up beautifully. Not only that but they cut the walls and ceilings so well that NO patching was required and had it been, they had committed to repair. The project took 14 hours over two days and even though some small things came up along the way the estimate remained the same. I HIGHLY recommend Jeff Werkeiser Electric. Also Jeff came to the job sight and inspected the work while in progress and to see if I was pleased. Fantastic service and top quality work.
Description of Work: Added 8 electrical outlets with two new circuits to the house. Added a light fixture. Replaced 4 light fixtures and switches. Capped 3 old switches that were still hot. Work took 14 hours over two day period with two electricians working Involved a lot of fishing wires and cutting plaster.

Estimate -- Jeff was prompt, and the final bill was the exact price as the estimate. One full day's electrical work : installed ceiling fan and switch in a living room with plaster walls and no previoous outlet or ceiling light. Also did some other minor electrical work.
Description of Work: We had a wonderful experience with Jeff Werkheiser Electric. This was not an easy job, as we have an old house with plaster walls and so it was certainly a challenge to have work done. The whole company (Jeff for his estimate, the electricians who did the job, and Wendy who arranged the time/billing) were all very professional, prompt, and courteous. We are very pleased with the job done; AND the clean-up was terrific, considering there was a great deal of plaster dust. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone!

I used him before at another house and he did excellent work. I'm very fussy and if I call them back, it is because they do a good job. He did a good job both times.
