He came in the evening, just a short time after I called. I don't remember the exact cost, but I recall it was very reasonable for after hours emergency service.

We've used Dan's Electric twice in the last month for basic electric work; we chose them based on location and strength of previous Angie's List reviews. Both times they were very accommodating to a short-notice request. Trina in the office was very helpful, and the electrician arrived promptly and was very professional. We will definitely be contacting them for any future electrical work.

Quick, easy, and very professional as usual.I've used this company before and everyone from the Trina in the office and Will the electrician to the owner Dan made the job pleasant and easy. Will's quality of work is to be admired. I can recommend this company without reservation.

Dan came out and diagnosed that the microwave was not and should be on its own circuit. We scheduled a time for one of his staff to come out shortly after that. The electrician arrived on time and finished quicker than expected. And the problem was solved.This was the third time in the last year I've used this company. They have always been punctual, efficient, tidy, and have quickly diagnosed and fixed the problems I called them to fix. They are a bit pricey. But you get what you pay for!

I had replaced a malfunctioning electric outlet in the bathroom, and replaced the light and fan switches for the room as well. Though I labeled the wires, as I went, only one of the two lights was functional when I was done. Enough with amateur hour - time to call the pros. I also wanted to replace some outlets (two-prong, no ground) in a bedroom, so it really seemed worth a service call. I chose Dan Del Zoppo (aka Dan's Electric) based on Angie's List.
Scheduling was no problem -- the representative handling scheduling was able to schedule for the day and time I requested when it was convenient for me to be off work (Friday afternoon). She committed to calling me shortly before the tech would arrive, and asked how much notice I needed, which was 30 minutes. On the day of the scheduled job, I got a call at 12:45 reporting that the technician would be arriving between 1:30 and 2 (45 minutes notice, plenty).
The technician, Will, arrived at 1:50 (on time), introduced himself in a courteous manner, and got right to work. He worked quickly, and continuously until the job was done, pausing only to answer my questions. He wrapped up all the work in an hour -- very efficient. He offered to take a check right then, have the company bill us, or have us call the office on Monday with credit card details. Nice to have options.
Since I had asked about arc-fault protection, Will volunteered a to inspect our circuit-breaker panel and advise on whether arc-fault breakers could be installed in the future. That was a few extra minutes that he didn't count in the bill.
On-time, reasonable rates, efficient and professional work, helpful. I will call them again in the future.

We chose Del Zoppo based on word-of-mouth. Two friends had work done by them just before our work and both had good experiences. We still got 3 estimates, though, including Del Zoppo--all had a wide range.
The owner answered all questions knowledgeably. We felt his answers were more informative than those of the other two companies (who also have good reputations). We wanted to replace knob and tube wiring--answers to questions about it being worth it to do this made information we already had more clear.
The electrician who did the work was very prompt each day, communicated well, and worked very quickly with almost no interruptions so the cost might be similar to someone less expensive per hour that didn’t work as fast. It took 12 work days over a period of just under 3 weeks for a whole house rewire (2-story, 1920's house, ~1300 sq ft) so very few breaks from start to finish.
Dust and debris was very low for the kind of work done (drilling though plaster and wood). We did most of the cleanup each day to get the work done faster and to save money.
Work started in the basement, proceeded to the attic then to the bedrooms and finally to the living room, dining room and kitchen so only part of one room at a time is tied up. Essential appliances are interrupted only briefly. For a day or two we had to use a lamp on an extension cord to light an area before the wiring could be completed since more extensive work was required.
It helps to stay ahead of the electrician--clear the area where work will occur before work starts in that room. Cover everything else in the room. It'll save time and money if the electrician doesn't have to do this.
The final cost was towards the low end of estimate--the same as for our friends.

The electrician worked very quickly! Which, when paying by the hour I really appreciate. He did everything I asked and I have had no problems since.

Everything went extremely well. The contact person, Trina, is superior in terms of coordinating everything from the bid process to the city inspection. Will, the electrician, was professional and very knowledgeable. I felt completely at ease trusting them with this project. I think it's unusual for a company to have all of the components work so well together. I could call Trina with any question at any point of the project and she got back to me with an answer. Will was always willing to go the extra mile to customize the job for me.
It was refreshing to work with the people of this company and I would recommend them without hesitation to any of my friends.

It was a pleasure working with this company. They were competent, showed up on time and kept me informed. However, it took a few months from receiving the estimate to completion of the job. The generator had to be ordered and took a while. I also had to contact the gas company to install a larger gas meter before work could begin. Trina scheduled the inspections. Because of a code change some of the work had to be redone. We have not had a power cut since installation was completed. A 10 minute test period once a week shows me that the unit is working.

I will give them an "A" in all categories. They are actually coming back in a couple of weeks do do some more work for us. I would recommend them to everyone.

Rich showed up on time, nice guy. I was initially shocked at the price of the service; when I complained, the owner went out of his way to make it right. He (Dan Del Zoppo) seems like a very good person, highly professional.

The comoany promptly provided a free estimate, scheduled to perform the work within one week of the estimate and delivered exactly as promised. Very punctual, professional, courteous and clean. Everything looks and works great.

We had a power surge incident that knocked out several appliances, so we had to have a lot of electrical work done. I don't think we have gotten the bill yet. It's probably going to be taken care of by our insurance company. They did the work. They seemed to do an okay job. Their responsiveness was good except that they advertised that they would respond 24 hours a day. I think they have a 24-hour a day line, but nobody responded. This happened on a Saturday and they didn't respond until Monday. We would hire them again in the future.

Great! All contact people were pleasant and helpful with questions. Dan told us he appreciates our business. They can also provide continuing maintenance on the generator if you like. Other bidding contractors did not provide after the sale service and referred the customer to to an outside service company. We liked the options of a concrete base or stone. Dan also gave advice about the optimal position and location of the generator. No other bidding contractors gave these added helpful hints. It is clear this company wants their customers to be well taken care of and benefit from their experience.

I had ordered a new ceiling fan with light from another store that arrived in multiple boxes with multiple components, including an optional remote control system. The man who came was punctual, friendly and efficient. He didn't seem to mind me hovering nearby and asking questions about how things worked. It took him about 1 hour or a bit less. After installation, he tested everything out and it's been working fine ever since.

Prior to upgrading my major appliances, I wanted the house electrical service upgraded from fuses to circuit breakers. I felt well-advised on exactly what to get (100-amp service with 30 circuits) for my home size and usage patterns, both now and potentially in the future. The new service panel is now uncrowded and clearly marked. The Del Zoppo folks were on time, worked fast, and cleaned up thoroughly.

I had a wall outlet that would not turn on and it kept tripping the fuse in the fuse box. He figured out that it was something inside the wall socked that needed to be retightened. It took him a while to figure out. Their price was higher for what they discovered. I would hire him again because he is recommended on Angies list.

The work was done quickly, professionally and they took away the old fans. I was able to get an appointment for the day after I called, which was great. Clean, fast, professional work. I will call them again for any electrical work.

Dan Del Zoppo Electric did an excellent job. They were prompt. They charged me what they said they would charge me. I was really happy with them.

Experience was great from the walk-thru explaining my issues with Dan to the gal who schedules it and the guy who came out to do the work. Everything was as expected, on time, and on budget. I'd use them again in a heartbeat!

We are extremely happy - they are all friendly, helpful, professional, and responsive every step of the way. We liked the detailed invoices, too. I thought the pricing seemed comparable for the market, but I don't have a lot to compare with.

I thought Dan and his crew did a great job with the wiring in my remodeled basement (recessed lights, electrical outlets, smoke detectors to code). Dan helped me select the right amount and type of lights for my budget and space plan. Tom was very responsive to any and all changes that I made. I would highly recommend them despite the higher cost.
