House Wire is absolutely incredible and I HIGHLY recommend them. They are true professionals and really friendly folks. I look forward to working with them again!
Description of Work: We had Tom, John, Rick, and Darren add ceiling lights in our upstairs bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, laundry room, and garage. They were able to add lighting on the first floor in locations where we didn't think it was possible. House Wire also replaced our outdated dimmer switches, added electrical sockets to the shop room in our basement, looked over our electrical panel, even labeling our "mystery" circuits, and removed an improperly installed 240V generator wire.

Fine, fine workmanship. Only complaint--terribly expensive. But I haven't had one problem since completion of the work so the proof is in the pudding.
Description of Work: Required requested areas of a 50-year-old house. Free walk-through estimate lasted ninety minutes. No push for more expensive work, but excellent suggestions--some of which were cheaper. Very thorough work, project completed under time allotted. You can choose between a set price or a contract that gives a swing between 10 percent over or under estimate, depending on how it goes.

I liked that they asked me details about what the problem was BEFORE they came over. This way, they were ready with the correct switch and the job was done in less than 20 min.
Description of Work: One of the light switches was not working in our house.

I got a verbal recommendation from a friend who is a contractor and called Housewire. They came quickly and did a very detailed and complete estimate. We discussed what the process would be if hidden problems were discovered. The work was done quickly and completely, with the work area cleaned up at the end of each work day. When the work was complete, I received a detailed invoice of every hour and every part used. The technical and esthetic parts of the work were both of the highest order. I reported an A for price because I believe the price was very fair for the amount and difficulty of work done. If you want cheap, call someone else. If you want superb craftsmanship, call HouseWire. I wish there were a level of response above an A for quality and professionalism, so that I could set HouseWire apart.
Description of Work: If you want perfection in the electrical work in your house, these are the folks. If you want cut rate, slipshod, low priced work, these are not the folks. They had to remedy a bunch of existing problems, run new circuits, cut dry wall and ceiling. The wall board was never open when I got home. It had always been closed up and finished. I could not be happier with the quality and professionalism of HouseWire. I will use them again without hesitation. When they were all done, my wife pointed out that all of the screw slots in the outlet and switch covers were vertical. Unbelievable!
