The project went extremely well! It was a lot of work and, of course, as so often happens in older homes, installing those ceiling fans uncovered some challenges. Mr. James gave a fair estimate and, despite the extra work, completed the job for that price. Each day that the work was in progress, I came home to an orderly scene--everything stacked neatly, all rooms fully usable. He gave me days and times that he'd be there, and was reliably there on schedule. He met with me again when the work was completed to be sure I understood what he'd found and how he'd handled it. He also volunteered to dispose of the boxes and old fixtures. The work itself is beautiful, and I highly recommend James Electrical Company!
Description of Work: James Electrical Company replaced almost all the light fixtures in my house and installed ceiling fans in all the bedrooms.

Outstanding work - professional, prompt, careful, clean. Price was far less than electrician "deals" on Angie's List. Highly recommend Ken James. Will use him again!

We had tried contacting other electricians, but no one else returned calls promptly or arrived when they said they would. Mr. James returned my call the same day and set up a time to come talk about what we wanted done. He was prompt, courteous, and insightful as we walked through what needed to be replaced and repaired. He was able to complete the initlal installations that same day, and was very helpful in answering my questions about additional lighting we needed inside and outside our home. He is very courteous and friendly, and takes time to listen and provde excellent suggestions. His work is first rate, and when he finished, he left nothing to be cleaned - - you couldn't tell he had been working either inside or outside our home. He was very considerate of our home and took care to leave things as he found them. Mr. James is by far the most professional and qualified service professional we have had the pleasure of working with, and we look forward to having him come back when we have additional electrical needs. We would highly recommend him!
Description of Work: Installed two outdoor lights at front entry, installed motion sensor light on garage/driveway entrance, and installed new light fixture in kitchen area. Also, repaired outside outlets for landscape lighting, and provided guidance on what is needed to complete landscape lighting along front entry.

Wonderful. Ken James and his fellow Chuck were totally professional and performed incredable service the entire time. They kept us up to date and informed from beginning of estimate to finish. They were constantly vaccuming and cleaning up as they worked. When they left all they left was the installed electrical items we had wanted installed perfectly done. I will be calling James Electrical Co in the future, they are truly a good and honest company.
Description of Work: Completely wired and installed 5 lights (inside and outside of house) and wired and installed electrical switch outside. Also included switches inside to control all including a speed switch for a fan and dimmer switch for one of the lights.

We were very pleased with the work completed by Mr. James. The man has integrity! He arrived on time and the price was affordable. We were also going to have a light pole installed, but he advised waiting until the weather was better to allow the grass to grow. He said he would honor the price he gave when he returns in several months. Our neighbor just had a light pole installed, and they paid almost double what we were quoted. I am glad to think we now have a reliable electrician in the light of so many horror stories we have experienced.
Description of Work: James Electrical Co. replaced several existing light fixtures as well as a new security light fixture,which included running a new cable and a new switch installed.

Mr James was prompt in returning phone calls and emails. Gave us a detailed estimate, took time to answer all our questions and concerns. Scheduled service dates and was prompt, courteous and went above and beyond cleaning up and moving items back in place when finished! Scheduled electrical inspection following week and was here during the inspection Made sure we understood how to set up generator and use the switch panel. Highly recommend for all your electrical needs. So nice to meet someone who takes such pride in his work! Will be using him in the future! Thank you Mr James!
Description of Work: Added light fixture, new outlets, wired for a generator including a cord for the generator . Wired and hung 2 ceiling fans

He is a master electrician, but I won't use anyone else. I know whatever he does is done well. He is not cheap, but with him you get what you pay for.
Description of Work: He has pretty much done all the electric work in my home.
