It went very well!! Sal is a professional. He accommodated my busy schedule by coming on a Sat. He did the work in a smartly and communicated what he was doing all along. I did not compare prices, hence rated the price factor as N/A., I went by the reviews and glad with my choice :)

The experience using Garofalo Electric can be summed up in one phrase:
?Sal is courtious, fair, and skilled bryond expectation.?
He was a true professional throughout the entire process ? from supplying a detailed and reasonable estimate, to showing up on time, to carefully planning how to accomplish all we asked in a way that would require minimal patch repair when compleded. And while it is not his ?job? to do so, he gladly provided advice, assistance, and even some materials to help us begin the proicess of repairing the few access holes that needed to be cut.
Sal was also dillegent regarding the respect of our property and working as cleanly as possible. He was in-and-out in just under 2 days (after he vaccumed and cleaned his work areas) and the only sign that he was here is the now beautifully hung and operating light fixtures that brighten our home.
We are so GLAD we called hinm for an estimate!

Great job....helped me move things out of the way and put them back, even swept up after himself after I told him he really didn't need to.  Put tarps down where he was walking in and out of the door.  Very pleasant and we'll definitely use him in the future!!

I needed an electrical panel replaced in my condo, as I'm about to put it on the market. I found Sal's profile on Angie's List and was impressed by the reviews. He got right back to me, came right out for a consultation, and was very professional and knowledgeable. He did an excellent job and left my place immaculate. The price also fell within my budget. Moving forward, Sal will be my electrician for all my needs. Highly recommend!

He was extremely pleasant and neat. He knew exactly what he was doing, and proceeded to do his work without hesitation. Also, he answered all of my questions so I felt very comfortable with him. I was confident that he would do a good job and he met that expectation. I would fully recommend him.

When I first contacted Sal,he answered the phone himself; I described the job and we arranged a tentative date for the work. When that date arrived, I had to call Sal to see if we were still on. He remembered our conversation, but said he couldn't do the work that day (it was two days before Thanksgiving). So we rescheduled for Dec. 3 and arranged to meet at the house at 10:30 am.
I arrived at the house at 10:30 am and did various jobs while I was there. But no sign of Sal. He called (not sure of the exact time, but think it was approximately 1 pm) to ask if we were still on. I said yes, but that I had to leave at 3:15 pm to meet my son on the school bus. Sal said he thought he could finish the job in time and would be arriving in shortly.
He arrived approximately one hour later and went right to work. His work exhibited a high level of professionalism and thoroughness. He's also a very nice guy. And I was on time for meeting school bus.

The job went very well, and I am very pleased. Sal was prompt, knew what he needed to do, and got right to work. Because of the age and lack of capacity of my circuit breaker panel, Sal had to replace it. He installed an excellent replacement, complete with a cut-over for the generator and six extra slots for future circuits to be installed. The wiring in the new panel is MUCH more organized than the old one; Sal did a great job in both keeping it neat AND labeling it clearly. He also installed a 30amp outlet on the outside of the house so that I can plug the generator into it, and set me up with a 25-foot, 30amp extension cord- everything I need to run my home off of my generator in an emergency.
When Sal was finished with the installation, he walked me through how to use the transfer switch to power the house from my generator. He was very thorough, and did a great job of explaining how the whole system works. He even swept up the entire work area, and left it cleaner than it was when he arrived! I found Sal on Angie's list in 2012, and hired him to install a new circuit for an electrical outlet in my basement. He did a great job, and was my first choice for the new circuit breaker panel and generator transfer switch. I have already recommended Sal to a few of my friends who are looking to have electrical work done. If you want an electrical job done right, for a good price, by an experienced and very personable expert, look no further than Sal Garofalo at Garofalo Electric, LLC.

Sal was very professional. He did all of the work he was contracted to do in a timely manor and cleaned up afterwards. He communicated well with us and his work passed inspection by the town.

The previous electrician was one we contracted through Angie's List. He had previously installed a new ceiling fan without any problem.
We don't know why the job went so poorly; it was major (connecting a new generator), and he seemed to know what to do.
But there were problems from the start. (I have misgivings giving you his name for fear of his retaliation.) He didn't come when he said he would; he gave us a quote for the work which, according to Mr. Garofalo, (when I showed him the contract) was at least $500. in excess. When I questioned the cost (He had told me an hourly rate, but charged far more than the time would have warranted,) he stormed out of our house. He would not respond to our requests to complete the job, which is why we hired Mr.Garofalo. Thinking that our Electric Dryer was broken, (it wouldn't work) we called in an appliance repair person who said the problem was not the dryer, it was the connection for the generator that was the problem. That is when we called Mr. Garofola.
Thus, we had to pay the appliance repairman and the new electrician their fees, in addition to the overcharge for the generator.
Mr Garafalo was a very nice repairman; We will call him again when we need work. He was friendly, explained everything clearly, and did the work without incident. I appreciate finding him on your list.
