Hi [removed member name], Thank you for your message, but I must say that I am confused by this, to say the least (especially as the project was completed almost 10 months ago). I recall no issues with our interaction whatsoever. However, that said, if you had mentioned something to me at the time, I would have been happy to address any issues so that I could add you to the list of thousands of happy Linde Electric clients, many of them repeat clients for more than 20 years! As you can see from my many glowing reports, I am dedicated to client satisfaction by providing my award-winning work for reasonable prices and utmost care of my clients' home. I look forward to another the chance to work with you again so that you can see why I am rated so highly for doing the work I love to do! Thank you again for the opportunity to fulfill your electrical needs! Theo

Description of Work: Theo was lovely to work with and did an amazing job, professional and quality work. This is not easy to find in Philadelphia. We will definitely be calling Theo in the future and is surely our go to electrician. He rewired/cased our electrical lines on the exterior of the house, cut off an unused source and placed a new external outlet with water protective cover and installed our light on the outdoor patio.

Description of Work: Mr Linde arrived on time for a bid on installation of a 220V outlet. A previous bidder would not touch the circuit breakers and instead gave me a bid for new service (over $2700.00). He installed the line on the spot. Installation was flawless. Mr. Linde won't be my top electrician - he will be my only electrician.

Dear {removed member name} , You are absolutely correct---and when I saw your note, I realized that I have been so swamped (calls and texts and emails, literally non-stop) this last month that a valuable clients like you was left waiting. I am a solo operation, and I don't have a call center monitoring calls (this is part of how I keep my overhead low and my pricing so reasonable). I am deeply sorry and apologize. I also know that I am so busy because I give the best value out there: Superior, precision work. Reasonable pricing. Utmost care of your home! If you still require help, I hope that you'll give me the chance to do what I do best and provide you with my trademark superior work! Thank you again for thinking of Linde Electric!

Electrician was on time and completed his services in a timely fashion. He employed good in-house etiquette, as he made sure not to track dirt in from the outside and thoroughly cleaned up. To this point, there hasn't been any difficulty with his services and everything works exactly as it should. Would recommend to anyone asking about this contractor.

Linde Electric was absolutely amazing! From the moment Theo came to give me an estimate he provided thoughts and recommendations to help my home be more energy efficient all while achieving my goal of better lighting. He offered an extremely fair price, and it only got better from there. Theo arrived on time every day, was very mindful of my home (shoe covers, drop clothes, the works) and worked quickly. On a personal note, Theo is extremely friendly and was a pleasure to chat with. I would recommend Linde Electric any day of the week!

Theo arrived on time. He was polite and friendly. He had given me an estimate on the phone and after looking at the situation, verified the fee. His work was neat and clean and he properly patched any holes or spaces left uncovered. He was a pleasure to do business with. I have since used him to mount a lighting fixture in my kitchen and would not hesitate to call him with any other of my electrical needs.

I had Theo do work on my South Philly row home on several occasions. He was always punctual, gave me an accurate estimate, cleaned up any mess he made while he was working and in general did a wonderful job. When I was upgrading my kitchen and doing some wiring myself, I called him to ask some questions and he patiently walked me through what I needed to do. He is a dream contractor - does what he says he is going to do, when he says he is going to do it, for the price he said it was going to be. You really couldn't ask for a whole lot more.
Description of Work: He removed some old track lighting and replaced with a dome light, removed an old ceiling fan and replaced it with a ceiling light. He ran some wire to my back bedroom so I could have a phone line in there. He added several circuits to the electric panel in my basement so all of the appliances were not on the same circuit.

Theo is a great electrician. He is extremely friendly, punctual, and clean. He originally came to our house on a Saturday to review the work and to give us an estimate. We knew that our home wiring was not up to "code," and needed to get the circuit breaker box replaced. We scheduled an appointment with Theo for a couple of weeks out. On the day of the appointment, he arrived when he said he would and got to work. By the end of the day, the circuit breaker box was completely replaced and everything was functioning properly. On that day, he also investigated a number of different electrical issues that we raised. Having a great experience with Theo on the first day, we decided to move forward with the second major project (Theo had given us an estimate for this on the end of the first day) - re-wiring the stairway lighting system. The electrician who originally installed the stairway lighting system must have had no idea what he was doing. There are light fixtures on each of the three floors and switches on each floor. The switch on the first floor controlled all three lights. However, the switch on the second floor controlled only the second floor light and the switch on the third floor controlled only the third floor light. Therefore, we couldn't turn all of the lights on from the second or third floors and if the switches on the second and/or third floors were in the "off" position, if we turned on the switch from the first floor, only the first floor light would go on. Needless to say, it was a mess. We scheduled an appointment for Theo to come out to fix the stairway lighting system a couple weeks after the first appointment. Theo came when he said he would and replaced the entire lighting system in the stairway with a 4-way system, so now we can turn on and off all three lights from any floor. This is a major improvement. Also on the second day, Theo re-wired a light fixture and switch in a bedroom. The connections had been loose, leading to the light blowing the circuit breaker from time to time. Since this was fixed, we have not had a problem with the circuit breaker. After day two, we scheduled an appointment for Theo to come out to do some more work about a week after the second appointment. Theo came when he said he would and did a lot of smaller jobs on day 3. He re-wired a light fixture in our basement, installed a wired doorbell system, re-wired the light fixture next to the front door and installed a new light timer switch for that light. Finally, we ran wires through the walls for our alarm system (Theo said that he does not do alarm system work, but he was more than happy to run the wires for us so we could hook up the alarm system ourselves). All in all, we had three great experiences with Theo. The only real problem with Theo is that he is so good, friendly, and efficient, that he is in high demand. He seems to be booked up for about two weeks at a time. But, given the quality of his work, he is well worth the wait.
Description of Work: Installed new circuit breaker box in order to ensure house is wired "to code"; re-wired stairway lighting with 3-floor 4-way lighting system; rewire overhead light and light switch in bedroom; re-wired light fixture in basement; installed wired doorbell; re-wired light fixture next to front door; installed new light timer for front door light; ran wires for alarm system.

Theo was prompt and professional. He put on shoe covers when he entered our home, and brought his own drop cloth to use when he drilled the holes for the new chiming mechanism. He was courteous and answered all of our many questions honestly and politely. He was neat and efficient; we did not have to clean up a thing. (Yeah!) Overall, we were very pleased with his preparedness, wealth of knowledge, and good advice. We will be doing some future work, and we will definitely call him again.
Description of Work: Theo checked our old kitchen "fan exhaust/ vent" because it had been sparking one very rainy evening. He couldn't find anything wrong with it, however. Noticing that the mechanism was old and worn out and not venting properly, he advised us to get a new one if we planned to use it often. Otherwise, he said not to worry about it; it was not a fire hazard. He also checked our doorbell because it had not been working (ringing only sometimes) and determined that the electrical part was fine. It was the old chiming mechanisim that had worn out. So he changed it out in no time ($15 for the new mechanism), and now it works perfectly. On a spur-of-the-moment request by us, he went through the trouble of checking our electrical panel and noted that everything was fine. Lastly (and again, on the spur-of-the-moment), he answered a ton of questions about concerns we'd had regarding other issues in our home. Being new home owners of and older home (built in the 1940s)--and never ever having owned a home before--he informed us about such things as when grounding is needed, grounding lines, rewiring, and other safety issues. It really helped to educate us and ease our minds.

Resolved everything quickly and efficiently. Came equipped to solve all problems. Impressed by his attention to keeping everything clean and organized (brought his own drop cloth). I will certainly call on Theo again for my electrical needs.

I had two old and messy breaker boxes... some of the lines were double-tapped and the boxes were small and lacking space to expand. Initially, I was planning on upgrading my service to cover the additional load of central air. After crunching the numbers, Theo informed me that my current service was fine - I did not need to upgrade. (He was the only contractor out of three to admit this, the other's just wanted the bigger job) We did agree however that my breaker boxes should be replaced. I asked for the 30-slot ones for each box (2). He arrived on time as planned and stayed until the job was completed, (a little less than a full day). He replaced the old board behind the boxes and ensured the ground spike was secure. He reconnected all of the old lines into the new boxes neat and clean. There was no mess. And the finished product looked good. Theo's attitude and professionalism is excellent. He even added a GFCI outlet by the breakers for general use at no additional cost. In the end, I think I could have gotten a slightly better price for the job, but I felt it was worth it for the quality and the experience of dealing with an honest and profesional person such as Theo. You can't go wrong with this guy!

Theo came on time with all of the equipment that e needs and rewired a bathroom exhaust fan that was originally done in the 1940's. He replaced all of the bad wires and clearly marked everything for the future. He installed the fan/ceiling light and cleaned up. You would never have known that repair work was done!
Description of Work: Theo does meticulous and exacting work. He is always prompt and ready to get started on any project.
