Chris and his partner were efficient, competitively-priced, and did excellent work. Despite having only minimal attic space, the team installed the 4 new recessed lights with extremely minimal drywall damage (only needed a little spackling). I had another contractor crew working the first time the guys came out (work was split over two half-days), and the Ryan Electric team worked seamlessly despite the limited access to the basement and were out and cleaned up before my other crew. I would (and probably will) use Ryan Electric for any future needs.
Description of Work: Installed 4 new recessed lights and dimmer switch; changed 5 outlets from two-prong to three-prong; installed 3 new duplex outlets and 3 new cable outlets.

OUTSTANDING. Chris and his assistant arrived on schedule, and finished the job in under 2 hours. Other companies had said the work would require about a day. Chris' estimate was by far the lowest and enhanced by his senior discount offer. All the work was done neatly, followed by complete cleanup. Although wallboard had to be cut to install the new outlets and switch, the work was done neatly and required no patching or repair work. They worked patiently with us to position the new chandelier where we wanted it to fall within the window behind it. All the new installations worked fine and there were no problems or issues to deal with. I would definitely use Ryan Electric again and recommend them to others.
Description of Work: Replaced an existing light on a 15 ft high ceiling with a new chandelier, installed 3 new outlets, and installed a new switch for an existing light.

What we wanted significantly exceeded the original "deal", so we bargained an upgrade. I'm not sure the final entire cost. We had a number of issues and schedule hang-ups but they were the result of the expanded scope, the size of the generator needed, and the regulatory issues associated with getting the gas lines approved, inspected, hooked up, etc (all of which are beyond the typical scope of an electrical business). Ryan's was there guiding us through every step of the way. We've been very happy with the generator itself - often we don't even realize that we've lost power and it has always worked as expected. We would definitely go to Ryan again for any future electric work. We do recommend that if you're looking to install a natural gas-to-electric generator you be aware of the possible issues with gas supply, plumbing, and inspections.
Description of Work: Provider provided and installed a whole-house electric generator (natural gas to electric).

They were amazing! Showed up exactly on time; went right to work and did a beautiful job! They were efficient, professional, and took extremely good care to protect the granite, cabinets and floor. The recessed lighting looks awesome and they were wonderful about giving us input about where to place the lights. We will never use anyone but Ryan Electric ever again. It was such a pleasure to deal with completely competent, responsive and responsible people. Do not hesitate to call them; you won't be disappointed.
Description of Work: They took down the old light fixture in the kitchen and replaced it with 4 recessed lights and dimmer switch.

Ryan and his employee arrived on time and I showed them the new fixtures I had ordered and discussed the replacement of the outside light fixture. They took out the old ceilings fans and wired in the news ones, They also installed the new light switches on the wall. They also went into a very small attic space to rewire a light that the previous contractor said he could not do. They then went outside and replaced the old fixture with a new one. Everything was great and I felt the service was well worth the cost.

We wound up not getting the generator in the advertised special because it would not provide enough power to run heat plus outlets spaced throughout the house. Ryan Electric helped us gauge our needs and recommended the proper size generator, which unfortunately, was very popular and was backordered from the manufacturer for several months. Once received, the generator was installed, but a separate service call was necessary for a plumber to make the gas connections, which added to the installation delay. During the wait, there were no power outages, so it all turned out okay. Just wanted members to be aware of the need for not only an electrician but also a plumber so they can factor in additional time and cost. Still, it was more than worth it; in the very next storm, the neighborhood lost power and that generator kicked in to keep us well lit and safe.
Description of Work: Installation of stand-by generator and additional electrical panel required to handle the circuits connected to the generator.

To start with, we are currently in the process of renovating our new house so we are dealing with a lot of different people and companies so we REALLY appreciated Chris with Ryan Electric!! He was incredibly responsive before we even bought the deal on Angie's List. We wanted a total of 11 pot lights installed in 2 rooms of our house and he worked out a great deal for us in addition to the Angie's Deal. As soon as we were ready for the work, he was great with scheduling and checking in to make sure we were ready the day of. He was on time and very professional when he showed up for the work. The lights look AMAZING!! We were expecting small pot lights for the price but they are the bigger ones and give off tons of light. He spaced them out perfectly throughout the room. We have a kitchen/dining combo and Chris actually put the 4 lights for the kitchen on a different switch then the 2 for the dining area which I would have never thought of. With all the work we've had done so far, I can honestly say that Ryan's Electric has done the best so far. Way exceeded my expectations.

Excellent job. This is the second time I have used Ryan Electric. They are always prompt, polite and professional. Excellent skilled workers, very careful to prepare the work area and protect it. Chris was very quick to respond to my email and set up a time that was convenient for me. I have many more projects to hire them for and will definitely use them in the future. Can't recommend them highly enough!
