I consulted with Frank over the phone about an electrical issue and he was able to diagnose it as an issue with the outside wires that the electrical company should fix.
Response from Frank J O'Reilly Electrical Service
"Thanks for the review. I always try to use my 33 plus years experience as a guide as to sometimes just provide answers and advice on things to check before a service call is needed. I am happy to have help resolve your situation without any fees. Please call for any other electrical related questions or problems in the future. Frank"

Frank did an excellent job - very clean and efficient installation. He came in advance to advise on installation in an older home, and he came up with a solution that resulted in substantial savings. Working with Frank was great, from scoping the project to keeping to his schedule and cost estimate.

I called Frank on his cell phone and mentioned I was calling from the same town where he lived. Frank was accommodating to come by at our house on his way back. Frank came in the afternoon as promised and swapped the GFI. Frank also explained how the circuit works and the load it supports. The price was also reasonable.
Response from Frank J O'Reilly Electrical Service
"Thank You [Member Name Removed], Overloading of circuits and loose connections are number one cause of electrical fires. I was happy to do the repairs needed and explain what is best for future usage with the kitchen circuit. Thanks for calling OReilly Electrical Service I am always happy to help. Thanks For the great review, Frank"

Frank was tidy, efficient and completely trustworthy (had to leave him at the house for the two days he worked - it was absolutely no issue). He knew his stuff and didn't waste time trying different wiring or equipment options. He brought the appropriate mounting hardware (even though he is an electrician, he did a great job with the mounting), saving time again. I recommend Frank very highly to anyone needing expertise and a fair value.
Response from Frank J O'Reilly Electrical Service
"Thanks [Member Name Removed] for the A+ review. I treat all customers the same with honesty and 30 plus years of experience I have been doing all aspects of residential and light commercial wiring since 1984 . I like to give my customers the confidence in me so if ever something as simple as a question comes up they can always call me for pretty much anything electrical related. Look forward to servicing your electrical needs in the future if need be. Sincerely Frank"

Frank responded in an hour to our initial email and was at our home that afternoon to take a look at the situation. He was then easily accessible through both email and phone to answer all of our questions. We are new home owners and he was knowledgable, professional and extremely helpful in guiding us in the right direction. We will definitely use him again in the future.

Thanks to Frank, the power lines were ready when Eversource needed them; however, they ended up needing to wait for the tree to be removed first! Frank was busy for hours ensuring that all work was up to code and that permits were obtained. He really focused on getting things done as quickly, efficiently and professionally as possible. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again, but hopefully, not under emergency circumstance.
Response from Frank J O'Reilly Electrical Service
"Thanks [Member Name Removed] , you where in a tough situation with all the damage from the downed tree on a stormy , hot, humid Friday night. I was happy to at least provide the services needed and contact the proper authority's to get your power restored as soon as that tree was removed from the area so you could at least have electricity restored to your house that night. If you have any questions or electrical issues in the future please call. I am always willing to help when I can. Thanks Frank"

Frank is an excellent electrician, and we have used his services for years.
He is honest, relable, and punctual. He tells you options for your plans,
and helps in whatever he sees as best addressing the needs of the family.
Over the years he has done quite a bit of work for us, in two different homes,
and we recommend him for ANY electrical work.

Frank O'Reilly responded quickly and gave me an estimate which wasn't the lowest but his description of the work was much more detailed than any one else and I felt like he knew what he had to do and could do it. He came out when he said he would and did all the work in the timeframe he promised. All 3 fan/light combos have worked fine since installation and he left the rooms in excellent condiftion after the work was completed.
Response from Frank J O'Reilly Electrical Service
"Thanks [member name removed], I like to be very detailed on the way the job will be preformed. l also inform all clients of any touch up work that might be needed.

We had a very hard time trying to find an electrician with any availability. I finally came to Angie's list and found Frank. He called me the same day, came and gave me a free estimate and was back the very next day to do the job. Very professional, helpful, and provided excellent service. We would definitely hire him again.
Response from Frank J O'Reilly Electrical Service
"I appreciate your positive review and if there is anything else O'Reilly Electric can do for you please call. Also the job was to completely wire a new above ground pool not only did we bond the pool the water the pool pump and salt water controller we also ran a dedicated 20 amp circuit from the main breaker panel piped pvc across the back of the house (no basement ) to a GFCI receptacle, weather proof box and in use cover. also changed the pool pump #16 gauge factory cord to new #12 gauge cord and male cord cap. to meet todays electrical code requirements.

Frank arrived on time and was very professional. Turned out the problem was the timer was off! Despite my embarrassment I appreciated the service being punctual and at least it was established there are 2 circuits to the pool shed/pump which led to my confusion.

"Thank You for the positive review. At O'Reilly Electric we understand that small jobs are a large part of who we are. We pride ourselves on educating the customer in anyway we can.

Frank was very punctual, he installed an outlet for the dish washer. We were very pleased with his knowledge and experience. This was not an easy installation. He had to remove the dish washer, uninstall the old wiring, and go through the wall to the sink side to install the. Outlet.

"In Defense of O'Reilly Electrical Service , The charge for a licensed electrician and a van is $90.00 period. It was unfortunate the customer tried unsuccessfully to locate the problem , This is why we get paid what we do 20 years experience,2 fully stocked vans thousands of dollars in advertisement each year etc... It is unfortunate he was unhappy with a normal service charge we had know idea what the problem was or ever is until a licensed professional arrives on a job. The customer left a voice message that he thought $90.00 was two much for my prompt professional service, we arrived the very next day morning after the service call was made i tried to explain all of the overhead a company has over the phone and he seem to understand. After a month of not receiving payment then a call was made to check on a invoice past due. I have preformed a very honest and professional electrical business in the town of Lexington for over the past 20 years. And I have hundreds of thank you notes and letters for years of reliable service provided with no complaints with the price of my service. Thanks for understanding the side of a professional licensed contractor.

I didn't have the actual work done. The company had changed, and they just didn't have the same level of expertise. I don't think I would use them in the future because there are too many other providers that I don't have to continually revex, if you know I mean.
Response from Frank J O'Reilly Electrical Service
"In defense of O'Reilly Electrical Service, O'Reilly Electrical Service Has not changed in 20 years of being in business and if anything our expertise has grown with the employment of other very qualified and experienced journeyman electricians. and as far as this comment posted Honestly I don't ever remember this type of request for work. In over 29 years of doing all phases of residential electrical work I have never heard of anyone hooking up exterior motion lights into a alarm system ? sorry it does not make much sense to me. I believe the comment posted is an inaccurate description of what O'Reilly Electric represents. Thank you for your understanding regarding this comment.
