OUTSTANDING - I will absolutely have JP McCurdy back again for further Electrical Work. The two electricians were polite, professional, and kept me in the loop asking any questions they may have had regarding my over sized light. (centering & having cords different lenths etc). I was more than pleased with the work I received.

The Electrician and his apprentice arrived on time at 7:30 AM. They assessed the job and got straight to work. Despite the complexity, they were done within 4 hours. This compared to a competitor who couldn’t quote or start the work the same day. The electrician and his apprentice were pleasant, friendly and professional. They patched everything up as good as new and the outlet and new light switch looked great. I would hire them again and probably will when I upgrade the wiring throughout my condo. Great company!

Project went very smoothly. Dealing with J.P. McCurdy Electrical was a pleasure. They were prompt in their response to my request for a quote. Within days of my calling, owner and Master Electrician Mr. J. P. McCurdy and electrician Michael B. arrived at our house and spent 2-3 hours scoping the job, explaining their methods, how they minimize extent of damage to walls that such work requires and informing me of items they normally include in a quote. Mr. McCurdy readily accepted my request to exclude from contract the cost of daily clean-up and repairs to damaged walls, both of which I wished to perform. Within two days of the initial visit, I received a detailed tentative contract, correction of which by me was then accepted and finalized in an additional business day. Actual work began few days thereafter. It was performed by two licensed electricians, Mark S and Jason S. with some additional assistance by Michael B. All 3 individuals were very knowledgeable, courteous and careful about minimizing damage to household items as they traced the k-t circuits behind the walls. Walls were broken through at about 20 places, most of which were 4" diameter sized holes through the lath, which were readily repaired by me later. Completion of entire on-site work took 106 man-hrs and required about two weeks. Work passed inspection. Inspector especially made a point to tell me that the degree of wall damage by the McCurdy electricians was the least he has ever seen for a k-and-t job and that he liked how they ran the new Romex cables through the attic, under the joists, in the gaps created by furring strips. So overall we are very satisfied and pleased with the work by McCurdy Electrical. In addition, we also found Judy G in Accounting Dept also to be very competent, friendly and helpful in handling all adminstrative matters related to this work. Thank you, McCurdy ElectricalcServices.

I gave another electrician 3 weeks to get my work done and they strung me along and never came. I called JP McCurdy on a Wednesday needing lights replaced for a get together by Saturday. They came on Thursday and were actually early for the appointment! I consider this company my new electricians after that service.

The two-man team arrived promptly and did their work efficiently. They were very careful in moving my glass-topped dining room table in order to reach the fixture. When they replaced the table, they noted that the fixture was not centered over the table in its original position and moved it to make the correction. They were very neat and courteous.

Called McCurdy's for the electrical portion of my parent's renovation. An estimator showed up on time and listened to both my parent's many requests. He worked with the carpenter and plumber, noting all electrical needs. He had an impeccable eye for placement of ceiling lights and, outlets and switches. Details we hadn't considered. The quote returned quickly and was comparable to the 2 other quotes we received shortly after. We chose McCurdy's because of the attention to every detail (that needed to be brought to the attention of the others) We are so glad McCurdy's came first or we would have missed a few key needs and details. When the electricians arrived, they were prepared with all the details that had been covered in the initial meeting. They reviewed with my parents and went to work. At the end of each day, the area was cleaned up and supplies put to the side. McCurdy's men remained on time, on schedule and on budget. I can't say enough about the entire crew and the final product. The kitchen, bathroom electrical details as well as the bedroom ceiling fans look amazing. They even installed the NEST thermostat that they recommended. Love it! Highly recommend McCurdy's Electrical Services

I made an appointment for someone to come at 9AM before I went to work to take a look at the job. Michael arrived right on time. I gave him a printed list of everything I wanted done, and we walked through house to mark the locations for each item. Two days later, I received an email with the estimate. We scheduled the work starting on the Monday of the following week at 7AM and would take about three days. Two electricians arrived on time and went right to work. The job required running lots of new wire and installing new work boxes. Plus all the fixtures. They also found one circuit of old knob & tube that was supposed to have been removed years ago by a previous electrician, which I had them remove and replace with new. Every day the site was left as clean as they had found it. They finished in two and a half days. JPMcCurdy Electrical Services has been doing all my electrical work for the last dozen plus years. The electricians are always professional, knowledgeable, and courteous. The pricing is about in the middle for the high quality of work they do. Two days after the job was completed, I received a phone call asking if everything was done satisfactorily. It was.

Response from JP McCurdy Electrical Services Inc
"Customer requested a "cross over panel" be installed for his portable generator. We do not install interlock kits or EZ switches for generators. They are dangerous and may cause damage to the generator. Although we did provide the customer with an estimate for a manual transfer switch, he decided to not move forward with the installation."

The electrician who came out to see what the problem was charged me $130 and was unable to solve the problem. He ended up saying it was something huge with all the wiring in the attic and they would have to come back with a bigger team. They never called me back to schedule or follow-up. I called another electrician one week later who fixed it in less than an hour and for $100. It was a simple fix with the wiring at the switch. . Really no idea what they are doing and terrible follow-up.
Response from JP McCurdy Electrical Services Inc
"Yes, we did address this. The customer did not review our reply in our customer portal. See Copy: 12/15/17 3:01 PM by Bill Welsh located major bad wiring in bathroom light and up in attic above bathroom bad wiring needs to be repaired, in code violation. - The customer had a renovation done some time ago that created many code violations in the attic containing newer electrical wiring and junction boxes. So, to help the customer to resolve this major wiring issue at no cost to the customer. We addressed it to the municipal building department to locate the installer, but they did not have records for permits on this work. Due to the report of our findings and we do not want to be responsible for this work. Electricians can be made responsible for NEC 110.12. "Electrical equipment shall be installed in a neat and workmanlike manner." "if they take out a permit.""

On the positive side, the two electricians who came to do the work were great. They were punctual, courteous, and worked quickly to complete the job ahead of schedule. The poor overall rating has to do with the aggravation of scheduling, the price estimate (which was off by 70%), and getting calls back from the office. I had called the office many times to initially get the work scheduled. One of the two receptionists takes down my phone number, says they will talk with the owner / electrician, but only returned my call once or twice. When encountering problems after job completion, I have to call multiple times to get a follow-up visit. I have worked with about a dozen contractors over the last 5 years, and this one has the most complacent and aggravating customer service of the entire bunch.
Response from JP McCurdy Electrical Services Inc
"We apologize as we were processing training of a new member of our office staff with a new CMR program. As far as the price, we provided an estimate of cost base on a visual to the eye assessment of present Knob and Tube Wiring for the replacement based on what we can see in open structural places. This is the normal practice because we can not see within walls. We identify what we see, disconnect power to the wires and process to walk throughout the premises to find devices of receptacles, switches and lighting outlets that are without power as a point of interest for existing K&T Wiring. Our price is based on that count and the intensity of the labor as listed units base on finished or open structure. [Removed Hyperlink] In this customers case, we discovered hidden non visual additional K&T wiring by mechanical disassemble of outlet devices unaccounted. We offer mechanical disassemble evaluation as an hourly rate for use of tools needed and electricians to disassemble and reassemble equipment to find K&T Wire, but it can be at excessive costs that is not practicable to achieve a quote, or three quotes if you include other electricians. We strived to be fair and as accurate as possible without guesting to present the best estimate possible. Please review our formated contract to all our customers: KNOB & TUBE WIRING, PATENTED MARCH 1892, T. A. EDISON. OUR BEST VISUAL IDENTIFICATION TO DEVELOP A BUDGET COST Removal of accessible K&T wiring, make powerless and safe. Install proper size, NMB cable; lighting outlets; receptacle outlets; switch outlets; standard devices with finish plates, white color. GFCI/ Arc-Fault protection as required by code. Standard lighting fixture 25lb. max, Chandelier and intricate assemblies are addition cost. Decorative lighting fixtures furnished by customer. - Normal cutting, snaking and rough patching of hollow walls and ceilings is required. Finish surface and painting by others of that trade. - If we discover that any wiring that we accounted for as Knob and Tube wiring "is not", but is the newer grounding type wiring, we will credit you for the cost. In a contrasting situation, we will notify you if we find more that is hidden, as well as the additional cost. John McCurdy"

Electrical, Generator Install
$6,500
After a significant delay, mostly because of overbooking and generator availability, installation went well and everything worked as it should. Because the cold weather kits were not available, they could not install it and required another appointment. That's where most problems happen. Calling, leaving messages, talking to people to leave messages to call back, emailing endlessly, the electrician that did the install leaving, after months, the kit was installed, successfully. The next hurdle was the 1 year prepaid maintenance service, oil/spark/filter change. That took 5 months to iron out when we could get someone to respond. The generator was installed 10/2012 the prepaid maintenance happened on 05/2015, because of so many communication misses. Then we paid $385 for a 1 year maintenance which happened on 06/2016, again because a combination of our availability and successfully getting the attention of McCurdy through whatever means possible. This year, 08/2017 the generator would not exercise. I called McCurdy, left messages both to a machine, in the middle of the day, and with a person in the morning. Two weeks goes by and nothing. I diagnosed the problem as the 12V starting battery, which lasted 5 years with only 85 hours on the generator, by far only exercise hours. While most questions or scheduling could be an easy ten minute conversation with everyone walking away happy, this never happened. Will not go back to McCurdy for any reason.

"Yes, this customers work was processing at the height of the season with many generator installations going on. The factory had delays shipping product to meet the demand. Unfortunately Generators tend to be a seasonal need as consumers tend to wait until fall. The generator and warranty was listed under a customer of a different name. - GE 11 kW Generator System by GE with Symphony" II Whole House 200A (SED) - GE 200 AMP. Whole House Symphony Automatic Transfer Switch Power Control - 5 -YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY (a value of up to $140). - Product comes with a FREE one year maintenance plan, for two scheduled services. $300.19 Value. The free plan ended 10/17/2013 with an oil change. The oil thereafter is change every 100 hours, it takes three year of normal use before the next change. You stated 85 exercise hours on the generator date of 8/17. The firs year is the most critical, the first 50 hours. We maintain the generators as required by the manufactures specifications on a daily schedule as group in an area of travel and the recorded exercise time of the generator so oil moves loosely. Most times customers are not home, we don't need to be in the home. You own one of the few best generators in the market. Sorry for any inconvenience."

I loved how thorough Mike and his assistant were. They didn't just dive in to make holes. They weighed out every possible scenario (wiring thru the attic, thru the basement etc.) and got the job done seamlessly. They were very knowledgeable and professional. I wouldn't hesitate calling them again. The best part was the payment options. +++ in my book!

Extremely badly. After looking at the plug, the electrician described what he would have to do to move it: remove all baseboards. We decided not to go with it. As far as the problem I had with the air conditioning, he tested the circuit and told me after a while that everything was fine! so he did not give me an estimate. The next morning I received a bill for $260 for two hours of work when he only stayed 1.5 hours for what I was expected was an estimate... The company agreed to reduce the bill to $130. BE AWARE, estimate is billed!!

"We did perform valuable work for this customer. Recorded: 06/05/17 10:39 AM by Call taker; added work MUST ARRIVE AT 7AM SHARP, SO SHE CAN SHOW YOU THE JOB TO BE DONE, THEN SHE HAS TO DRIVE A FRIEND TO THE TRAIN STATION Wants a Coaxial TV outlet and cable run in the wall in her bedroom for the TV. Also, she has multiple air conditioners and the circuit breaker keeps tripping. Please test to diagnose the A/C circuits and we will need to give her a price to maybe add another dedicated circuit for the A/C units. The main issue she wants done first is the coaxial TV outlet for today. for Job #6488 Service Call Electricians recorded: 06/20/17 12:44 PM by 2 pics are in attachments of the work order. Went through what the customer wanted to do in her bedroom. they have a coaxial TV Outlet that is across the room from the TV and they wanted the cable in the walls and a coaxial TV outlet near the TV. they can not do this without notching the wall or removing baseboard because they do not have access to open frame structure above the or below. the husband thought it'd be too big of a project for what she wanted. I went to the electrical panel took off the cover, isolated the circuit with the A/C units. the amperage load was eight amperes on the meter. I turned on both A/C units, table lights anything I could to re-establish a breaker to trip with the customers. We could not get the breaker to trip. I marked down my readings on the work order. Next I diagnosed the power and signal connections to the TV and found that the switch on the converter box had been turned off. I was told by the customers that the house cleaner had done something by accident. fixed that for them. The customer would not sign the work order because she had thought that we were just giving an estimate and in her words "that nothing had been done to improver the home" I had explained that even tho nothing had been physically done, that I did go through all her ckts and tooled my readings and that I had also spent over an hour and half w her and her husband to fix things just now and going over what could be done for her coax cable in the bedroom. I don't believe an "F" was deserved by this customer. Our CRM Field Service program records every action from communications, time stamping and GPS location tracking on every job. Our goal is to perform the best job possible, please all our customers and be fair. John McCurdy"

It was awesome! The technicians were excellent. They were able to come out in two days after I called. I was in a bit of a time crunch, but they were willing to make an exception for me due to my wife's medical condition. I had called other electrical companies and they were all unwilling to make an exception even given my circumstance. I was very pleased with the customer service as well. They were on time and installed the outlets exactly how they were supposed to be in accordance with the medical stipulations. All of my questions were answered professionally and courteously and the technicians were in and out quickly and cleaned up very well. I definitely know who to use in the future if I have any other electrical needs.

My husband and I were extremely pleased with all phases of the work that this company performed for us over the last several years. I was so pleased that when the law office where I work needed any electrical work at any time, the managing partners hired this company and they were also very pleased with the workmanship, professionalism and yet friendly dispositions of the individuals involved.

Everything went smoothly. Two of Jack's electricians arrived exactly on time. They went right work from room to room, installing new wiring, boxes, switches, plugs ,etc. They only had to cut plaster in one room to pull wire to a center ceiling fixture, but they repaired it so you'd never know it was cut. They returned the next day to finish and to run wire to a second floor office and install plugs for an AC unit and computers. An to add a few additional plugs in the basement. A neighbor saw their truck and said that she had also used them and had a good experience. We both will use them again.
