My wife and I are exteremely satisfied with Alex Electric. We have used Alex Electric on several occassions in the past year. Alex Venit was a referral from a colleague. Alex is prompt, polite and neat and managed every aspect of the GENERAC house generator installation from the delivery of the unit to the clean up. You would never know he was there. . In the last year, Alex Electric installed a 5 camera security system in my home and an 8 camera security system in my friends automotive shop. All are WiFi and are viewed on my phone in real time. Alex Electric set up everything and even added the system to my phone. Last year, Alex Electric did an LED conversion in my garage workshop so I am able to I became aware of Alex Electric after a colleague of mine hired him to do a large LED conversion project for his commercial business. I would highly suggest Alex Electric and his staff. Alex Venit is a great electrician.

BRILLIANTLY! Alex was able to provide same-day service, closely inspect & evaluate various "trouble spots," make suggestions, and most of all, allay my fears after a horrendous morning. He was highly professional, affable and reasonable. Would hire him again in a second. He's MARVELOUS!

Alex returned today after we cleared the path for him (last night) and he did an amazingly good job on my old house. He did not hit me up for extra travel time; he was cheerful and responsive to all of my questions and took time to explain his work. He was a true professional. His bill was extremely fair and he gave me an "Angie's List" discount. He is now MY electrician of choice. Nice guy, good work, fair pricing...what more could a customer ask for?
Description of Work: Alex came in a troubleshot and we needed to move large wall unit to get to in-wall wiring and set up extra electrical switching.

Hire Alex. Any electrician could have done the work, but it's the way he presents and conducts himself that makes for a good experience. On time, presentable, pleasant and professional demeanor, quick work, organized.

It went excellent. I needed this job done urgently and they not only gave me a good price, but was able to accommodate the schedule on such short notice. In the past I've been charged more money for services that were needed fast, but Alex Electric not only did a very professional job, they came through for me without taking advantage of the urgent nature. I will definitely use them again and refer them to anyone who needs electrical and lighting work done.
Description of Work: Replaced four ceiling lights with ceiling fans that had lights.

Went great. Alex patched up the areas where he needed to in a very clean and neat way. Getting through the concrete wall was extremely difficult and took a bit of time to figure out. Alex didn't stop until he found a solution. It took a couple of visits until he had the right tools but the price he quoted me remained the same despite the additional work needed. I would definitely hire Alex again for any future electrical needs.
Description of Work: chandeliers swapped and moved position. flat panel tv mounted on concrete wall and cable box installed on other side of wall so that it wouldn't show.

Amazing! I was not sure of exactly what I wanted. Alex listened and actually heard what I said. He did not rush or speak over me but offered ideas and suggestions. Our attic is unfinished and no pull down stairs. He brought everything he needed, He worked in a dark space and located wires to help place our new flood light. Our exterior lights are great. You would never know that he drilled through our stucco. When he finished, Alex made sure he left our home better than when he walked in! My house was clean and no one would have known we had work done. Our landscaping is also very difficult and he exhibited great knowledge and skill working on a ladder so far off the ground. I already have him pricing more work I would like to complete.
Description of Work: I needed to replace old flood lights with led and motion sensors. I also wanted to add an extra motion sensor flood light.
