Description of Work: Repaired an electrical conduit, electric meter on a rental house that had been damaged by falling tree limbs and high winds. Came out promptly. Very reasonable cost estimate. Finished the work on the day we arranged for it to be done. Very professional. Excellent work.

Thanks so much for the A rating! Thank you too for being such a great customer! It was wonderful working with you. Weather can be a terrrible enemy in the even of high winds and old trees. Some times only a replacement of the meter socket and the service riser (the pipe with the wires to feed the meter socket) need to be cared for. Turned out to be easily cared for in a timely manner. I hope I can be of service to you again in the future.

Great to do work for this customer! They had a bit of work wiring an addition to the back of a work shop. This required some additional conduit work, and then an amount of wiring in the shop area. Glad I could be of help! Thanks so much for the very favorable review!

Thank you for the very nice review! This was an interesting job. The customer had a number of fixtures and ceiling fans that they wanted to be rebuilt/rewired. A couple of them were a little older. The question was asked if they wanted to possibly replace the lighting kit on the one ceiling fans. They chose to have the parts replaced, and the kit rebuiilt. Parts were purchased and the lighting kit rebuilt. This took longer than it would have taken than to just replace the kit with a new one. I think the customer didn't realize this prior, although it was discussed with them. The work was completed, and the invoice compiled. Unfortunately for me, I failed to include the cost of the parts on the invoice. Didn't realize what I had done until after the fact. My loss for going too fast. Not sure why it was graded as a "B" for cost, but it is what it is. The end result though?? All the jobs asked were completed, and all fixtures working. Its a beautiful thing. :-)

Description of Work: Eric Hanson set a scheduled install. He requested pictures of the service pole. He then said I would need to contact the electric company to disconnect the electricity. Then I would need to get an approval and work permit from the city. Then I would need to replace the whole service pole equipment. With that information I chose to not have the outlet installed. Eric was very kind courteous and helpful.

Thank you for the great review! Some jobs end up being more than what is initialy expected. Part of my job is to ask a bunch of questions to find out the details. At times it is more than what the customer wants to have done, for financial reasons oor otherwise. I was glad to be of help and work through the project. I hope I can be of service to this coustomer in some way in the future!

What a great review! Thank you so much for all you have given me. :-) This customer had access to the materials where they work, and just needed someone to make sure to install all of them correctly. With an electrical upgrade it usually goes pretty smoothly. The Building Department and the power suppliers locally are great to work with. I am often able to do the work within a day's work, and the power goes back on before I get paid and leave. That is the way this one worked out. They had a couple of other items to care for also, and this gave the other licensed electrician something to do to fill out his day. Perfect for both of us. Thank you again so much for the work, and the wonderful review!

Thanks so much for the straight A's!! So glad to be of help. Adjustments had to be made to make sure the load would not be too great on a sub-panel. Thus a longer run thatn initially thought, but a much better option, to be sure. This customer is great to work with. You can't beat the setting either. On the shores of a local lake. Just beautiful. I love the work I do. :-)

Thank you so much for the Great A rating! I did a number of different items on this job. The customer had a few outdoor lighting situations. One was a short in a fixture that was ordered especially to match the house. It also matched a fixture on the other side of the door. I was able to rewire the fixture. I found a shorted wire inside the fixture while doing so. Thus the reason it didn't work. :-( There were a few other problems that were also resolved with previous electricians not caring for the wires in a rightful manner. All is safe at this point from what I can see. Put wires in boxes and covered them over properly. Thanks so much for the work!

Perfect.
Description of Work: I have been using Eric for years and cannot say enough great things about him. A few weeks ago I needed to install a ceiling fan in a rental and the tenant was moving in on Monday. I started the job on Saturday and realized that whoever switched over the old wiring (not Eric) didn't replace the box containment box above the old fixture. They just had wires coming from the attic into the room. I called Eric for advice, he stopped by on that same day and helped me switch out the fixture and install a new containment box for the wiring so the house would be safe. He charged me for an hour of work on a Saturday night at 6pm. That is why we don't consider calling anyone else when it comes to our electrical needs.

Description of Work: Eric was incredibly professional, respectful and knowledgeable and prompt. This is the best experience I have ever had with a contractor, handyman, etc. We brought him in to remove and old chandelier and replace it with a different one. He diagnosed an issue which required additional support for the new, heavier fixture to be installed from the attic. The space was an open 2 story foyer area requiring a larger ladder. He could not have don't anything at all better. He was supposed to be at house at 8am and when it was 8:02, he called and said he is about 3 minutes away. He completed the job quickly and cleaned up after himself to the point that you would never know he was even there. As a bonus, he even played his mandolin for our 3 1/2 year old son who has been talking about the experience ever since. Super nice guy. highly recommend and would definitely use him again!

Thank you for the A rating/report! I enjoy doing jobs like this. I like to take the time to be sure that what I install is going to be on the correct style of outlet box. In this case it was a box rated for a smaller fixture. The box I installed before I hung their chandelier is rated for seventy pounds. Easy to install, and worth the time and cost of materials, thus eliminating concern that the fixture may not hang in the manner desired. Too, it was a joy to see his young son discover the joy of music as I played the mandolin. I brought it in to keep it from getting too hot in the truck. It was a privilege to share that joy. Who knows, maybe he will be the next Chris Thile, or maybe Joshua Bell. :-)

Description of Work: I had a small rental where there was a distinct burning smell coming from the electrical box. The tenant called me and was very concerned. I called Eric at 8am and he had the problem fixed by 9. He is amazing! We only use Eric for our electrical needs and you should too.

Burning smells in an Electrical panel are a REALLY BAD thing. I try extra hard to care for these in a very prompt manner. Even if it means calling a few other clients and getting their permission to put them later in the day. This job was pretty straight forward. I was able to care for it in a timely way and get rid of the problem. No more heat from the panel, and a now working A/C unit on a very hot day. Thanks for being a return customer! I look forward to being of help whenever you need such in the future.

Thanks so much for the "A" report! This job was pretty simple. I was asked by the homeowner to do a little work on the furnace in the home. Unfortunately I am not qualified to do this type of work.

Thank you for the positive report. I enjoyed working with this member also. He was clear on what he wanted. He was willing to discuss the concerns I had about how the job would proceed, and was accessible by phone if I had any questions about that needed answered. The main one was the location of the new electrical service. The old service entry was in definite need of replacement. The new equipment took up a greater amount of space, and was to include an exterior disconnect as part of the meter base. After explaining the concerns the member was agreeable to what needed to be done, in conjunction with what he desired as an end result. I look forward to being of service to this member in the future as any need may arise.
