John responded quickly to our email and agreed to come to our home a few days later. He communicated well, was knowledgeable and well-organized and completed the projects quickly. After John explained the extent of the damage to our post lamp, we decided to replace it with a solar unit at a later date, so he didn't repair that. But everything else on our list was taken care of. It all works well and looks great. We're very pleased. As a bonus, we found John to be a very nice guy.

I have had John for a number of large and small jobs over the years and highly recommend him. The latest involved a call to him in the late afternoon and completion of the project within the following 2 hours. Certainly exceptional. 5 stars from me.

John was fantastic! Arrived promptly and started working immediately. He was efficient and neat. No time wasted in his approach to the job. Cleaned up after himself. Not even a piece of dust left behind. Pleasant personality to boot. I'd have John back to do any other electrical work that I need.

John was pleasant to deal with and very professional He was on time and did a great job. Had to install a ceiling fan where there was no electricity. He was neat and cleaned up after himself. I rated him down a little on the price part as it cost $600 and took him three hours to do the job. I'm inexperienced in what electricians charge so maybe that was a fair price.

No problems. They changed out a very old fuse box for a 30 space panel.

John and his wife were awesome. Provided excellent and fast service, even made a money saving suggestion for the garage lights (that I did). The price was very reasonable. We were selling the home and our realtor gave us a ball park figure that was right in line with their estimate. In fact, afterwards I gave his card to my realtor, since he did not have a go to guy for electrical work. He does both small and large jobs. In addition, I needed the work do sooner that later and he was able to fit me in between jobs.

John was awesome. He was out the same day I called him. He was professional and thorough. He was able to get everything up and running.

John is very knowledgeable and passionate about the work that he does and it shows. From the timeliness of the estimate to the scheduling of the installation, John was very professional and punctual. Services were performed well and issues dealt with promptly. John did a great job! We will use him again.

Everything went very well. John, an exceptionally nice person, came a few minutes ahead of time. Went with me over the problem & working needed. He then checked the light outage in the basement, determined the exact reason for outage and then fixed it. He also removed the kitchen ceiling light and replaced it with a new one.

Went great, John actually brought the fire alarms required by code and had no problems installing quickly and efficiently. We also discussed some other future work. John was very personable. Very convenient to get work done on a Saturday.

The work was done very well, he was punctual and pleasant, and we were very satisfied. He informed us of the approximate price before he arrived.

Very well. Found that water had seeped into an electrical box. Also found a ground fault on another circuit.

John and Connie were actually able to come a day earlier than planned which was fine with us. They arrived when they said they would and got right to work. They made some very good suggestions which we followed. They worked quickly and the work was very professionally done. We were very pleased with the results. We would also like to note that this was a relatively small job and a couple of the other companies that we contacted for bids would not even consider doing such a small job. Thankfully, John and Connie accepted the job and did it well. We highly recommend John Kivel Electric, LLC.

The Friday before Thanksgiving our power in the kitchen went out. Because we were hosting Thanksgiving needless to say panic set in. I called John late Friday afternoon and explained my predicament. He said he could come out tomorrow, Saturday, around 12:15. John showed up right on time and immediately assessed my problem. He replaced a faulty GFI and added others. Problem solved! John saved the day. Highly recommended.

John was very knowledgeable, efficient and personable. He did a great job and the pricing was very reasonable. He gave me a quote over the phone and it was pretty close to what the bill was which was very valuable to me being on a fixed budget.

They were done in a couple of hours. I have other wall switch issues that will need replacement and I will call them.

John and his wife were outstanding. They were understanding, professional, punctual, and did an all around excellent job. There are probably many electricians who can do the basic work. The customer service and commitment to excellence from the Kivels was what stood out. A+++.

John was great. Very communicative. Recommended a solution which, in the end, saved me money at the expense of his being able to bill me for a more expensive solution.
