He took a deposit over a year ago and never contacted me back about installing new meter socket only contact that was made in the year was me contacting him and when I asked for a refund he only partially refunded me and took over two months after waiting a year and him doing now work or providing no services and when I called for the rest of my money he was flipping out telling me to come get it and told me to F*** off absolutely don’t avoid this guy at all costs

Terribly. James McDonough is a terrible electrician , I would not recommend him for any of your electrical needs. He installed fans that were too short in our cathedral ceiling, now the fan blades hit the ceiling when it’s turned on. He also never discussed with us the different options for the electrical work, I would’ve expected a professional to ask the customer about having switches that would control the fan and light from the wall switches. I realize this is partially our fault, but with all the things we had going on with the construction we didn’t think about this until it was too late. There are multiple recessed lights that have damage around the ring, the holes were cut out too large/not round to fit the light. When trying to locate one of the electrical wires of the recessed lights he put two holes in the ceiling; which he didn’t repair. While doing the job three of our lights downstairs stopped longer working. He was made aware of this and never corrected the issue. Too make all of the above even worse; he was also rude and condescending.

He started the job but did not know how to do the work. The electrical inspector asked for more work to be done. McDonough asked for more money which I paid then he never came back. I lost $12,000. Stay away from this dishonest electrician.
Description of Work: I had a contract with him to rewire a 3 family.
