This is the 2nd time I've contracted Mr. DiOliviera. Still stellar service from this pro. Even though busy he made time to come immediately and resolved the issues quickly and efficiently. 5 stars and high marks for this company. As a retried hotel GM i am used to dealing with contractor issues and truly appreciate having someone reliable and professional to contact when needed.

A breaker in our kitchen tripped while cooking and couldn't be reset. Jimmy answered our call right away and came out the very next day- he even called to apologize for not making it out the same day. He got the breaker fixed in a few minutes and fixed a light switch that wasn't working properly for no extra charge. He also gave some advice about replacing lightbulbs to make our dimmers work correctly. I would recommend Jimmy to anyone looking for fast and reliable electrical work!

Jimmy installed our new system quickly, and he dealt with all of the permit pulling and communications with inspectional services. This was incredibly helpful, as none of us were familiar with the process. He constantly communicated with us, so we knew where he was with the project, and what work was pending. We'll definitely be using him for future electrical projects.

I couldn't be happier. Needed an Ecobee4 thermostat installed and needed a C-wire added to support the new unit. Great work, incredibly responsive - impressive right before the holidays - and right on budget. Thanks again!

Mr. DeOliveira solved my difficulties in a thoroughly expert manner, demonstrating the benefits of his long experience. He also strongly encouraged us to use the special dimmer recommended for "dimmable" LED bulbs, installing the one I had bought in case it was needed. He well deserves his Angie's "Super Service" award.

I've had a good experience with JDO Electric. Jim responds quickly to emails, and he works hard to fit you into his schedule. He and his employees are courteous, professional, and go out of their way to do a good job. Our house is old, and it has proven to be kind of a challenge to deal with. I had purchased wall timers that wouldn't work with our old wiring. Jim looked in his van and actually had ones that would work instead. He's still helping me to figure out a problem with one circuit in our fuse box. JDO Electric has been cost conscious and reasonably priced, especially considering the extra effort that they put into trying to troubleshoot our house's electrical problems. Great service!

We love Jimmy for a number of reasons: he comes when he says he will, he does excellent work, the home inspector is happy with his work, his prices are fair, he listens to what I say I want and tells me the pros and cons of each option, he asks me questions about things I never thought to ask him about (would you like the lighting to go down or up?), in short, he is our ‘forever electrician”.

he owner was very knowledgeable and the prices competitive. I liked everything until one alarm was not installed properly, I called and ask them to come back. I never heard from them again. Fortunately one of the tenants fixed the alarm.

This was to replace an existing 60 Amp service. The pole to house access was difficult and Jim came up with a new really neat approach. Also required a support structure for the new, larger panel. The installation was quick, neat, and complete!

Jim was good about answering emails and set an appointment very quickly. He showed up and was very professional and detail oriented. Pointed out some issues that had been overlooked by the original installers and recommended a resolution. He also did his best to make sure the wiring of the new appliance was to code and did not change the arrangement of our cabinets. Good guy, not chatty.
