Description of Work: They remounted an outside light that had pulled loose from the siding. Took off the light fixture and discovered the electrical box wasn't properly fastened to the siding so he fixed that then added more screws for the stability of the light. I had bought a new fixture but since there was nothing wrong with the old one he reused it, saving me money. Very helpful

Description of Work: There were unexplainable power surges. After checking all of the interior wiring on the 1 bedroom condo, the technician determined one of the supply lines was bad and needed to be fixed by the power company. He changed the circuits so everything came off the one working feed.
