Michael was great to work with! He was easy to contact, showed up on time, and was reasonably priced. We had an issue with National Grid and Michael waited outside until National Grid showed up. He wanted to make sure our issue was fixed as quickly as possible, which was greatly appreciated. I will definitely use Michael’s services again in the future!

Have you hugged your electrician today? Neither have I, actually (he’s happily married), but he’s so AWESOME that I want to. Mike installed several light fixtures and ceiling fans for me, upgraded my existing smoke and CO detectors to current standards, installed heat detectors in my garage, and installed smoke/CO detectors in my bedrooms where there weren’t any. Some of this work was not easy given the way the house was built. Mike took extra care to come up with a creative solution to install the heat detectors that took him longer than expected but required minimal drilling of holes in the ceiling. And when he left, the rooms where he worked were cleaner than when he arrived. His original written estimate – which was very fair and reasonable -- was the price I paid for the work, even though it took him longer to finish than I think he originally expected. Mike is professional, polite, and he fixes it right the first time. I’m delighted to have found an electrician with integrity whom I trust implicitly to do the job right at a fair price. I’ll be using him for all my electrical projects – you should too!

Mike showed up right at the agreed upon time. Professional. installed switch and left work area clean. Called shortly after leaving to remind me to change FIOS back to original outlet. He was VERY thorough. Price was competitive with other quotes, and what friends have paid. Almost forgot. I overpaid in final installment. Mike called right a few minutes after he left and brought to my attention. Much appreciated! I recommend him. Will use again for future electrical work.

We hired Mike again for more work in our home. We were renovating the bathroom and he updated the electricity there as well as added new wiring for a heated floor and new light fixtures etc. Once more, Mike was pleasant, reliable, efficient and thorough, and very reasonably priced. We would definitely recommend him and we will call him in the future for more work.

Mike has done work for me in the past and has always been fair, efficient, professional and done great work. He comes prepared, unlike a lot of tradesman who show up at your house and then have to go to the store to get the materials. I believe his goal is to make his customers happy.

Mike is very efficient. He was able to get the whole job done professionally in less time than originally planned. The reduced power downtime was very helpful as it was very inconvenient to be without power in the house. The new electrical panel looks beautiful with all the wires orderly connected and each circuit breaker clearly labelled. Mike tested all circuit breakers to ensure that they all work properly. He removed all debris and kept the working area clean. As expected, the inspection by the town inspector went well without any issue. Mike did a quality job at a very reasonable price. He is very honest and he even agreed to replace a ceiling light fixture for me with no additional charge. I would highly recommend him for any electrical work.
Description of Work: The electrical panel box in the basement is 27 years old and many circuit breakers were kind of rusted and with bad connection. The wires inside the panel were not organized properly. Mike recommended that the 200 amp electrical panel box be replaced.

Mike was called for the service. He came the next day to tackle the challenging job. It took him an hour to identify and fix the issue and everything is now in working order. He also recommended replacing the electrical panel to avoid potential issue.
Description of Work: 3 electrical outlets, 4 ceiling lights and the front outdoor lights were without power and not working. My neighbors and I tried to troubleshoot for hours without success.

We called Mike and he responded in a timely fashion, set up appointments, was punctual, and most importantly he communicated with us regarding any updates and/or changes. He diagnosed an issue, and repaired the problem in less time than he had expected. He was pleasant, professional, knowledgeable, and cleaned any areas that he worked in. His fees were very fair and less than we had anticipated. We have more electrical work that we want done and we will definitely call him again. I would highly recommend him for any electrical problems.
Description of Work: Lights and electrical outlets went out in a portion of the house. My husband had done his due diligence (unfortunately unsuccessful in resolving the problem) with the little electrical work he could safely do himself, by replacing all the outlets with new ones, and simply checking that wires were secure to all the lights and plugs affected by the outage. We then had a licensed electrician come in to investigate the problem, but he was unable to diagnose the issue either.

Michael was prompt and professional in the service he provided. He completed the project on time over the course of 2-3 work days and the work looks great. The panel is now wired much more cleanly and looks like a professional job. Michael also left his work area clean at the end of every day and called to give a detailed update of progress. We haven't had any electrical issues since.
Description of Work: Michael came to inspect a troublesome electrical system in my home (i.e. many appliances were shorting out). He determined that the existing panel was severely overloaded and wired poorly (a jumbled mess of wires and overloaded circuits). He recommended an upgrade to a 200A system with a full re-wiring of the panel.
