Excellent.  When we purchased our home in 2001, there were a lot of quirky wiring issues.  For instance, In order to access the timer for our two outdoor, porch lights, I had to pop a ceiling tile in our basement bathroom.  If I wanted to run the ceiling fan in our sunroom, the outdoor lights as the back of our home would turn on.  Needless to say, I think a good part of our electrical issues could be attributed to DIY projects (not of our making).  Anyway, I did not realize how much joy properly working electrical fixtures could be!  Thanks to Du-Rite, we now have dimmers that dim, timers that turn on and off our outdoor lights, and a dedicated ceiling fan switch in our sunroom - no more ceiling fan on/light on issues. My only regret is that I did not call Du-Rite 14 years ago.  I will definitely call Du-Rite the next time I require electrical work.

We called and had them bid the job. They costed out each item and returned the bid in a timely manner. We were not sure about what size surge protector we needed, and Edward gave us his opinion with pros and cons on each size. After accepting the bid, we were able to schedule the work right away.
We had scheduled for an early appointment but at the last minute Tracie called and said they were delayed and would not be able to come until later in the day. They finished up their job sooner and came late morning. We had a lot of things they were to do, so we were glad they could leave enough time.
Edward works with his son and both are good workers. They did not leave a mess for us to clean up, which is always important. Everything is now in working order.
We have some additional work to do that Edward pointed out; things that had been supposedly fixed by previous electricians and were not.
We will use them again.

We recently relocated to Nebraska. A few weeks after moving into our new place, we drilled through a bundle of electrical wires while trying to hang a tv wall mount. I called DuRite the following morning, heard back from them early afternoon, and Josh was at our house just 30-min later. He did some quick troubleshooting, turned back on a few fuses we had turned off in our moment of wire drilling fear, and then gave us a few options which were somewhat dependent on what they would find when they opened up the wall a little more. He gave us a quote and we set up an appointment for 9AM the following morning. Josh, Chris, and another guy (who's name I missed) showed up the next morning. They had an emergency to go to first, but called to let me know and were really only 5-10 min late anyway. They did a lot of troubleshooting to make sure they knew where every wire went and then removed the existing electrical outlet box and installed a new one at a higher location. They re-ran some new wire to a couple of switches and checked everything out. Everyone from DuRite was professional, friendly, and really knew their stuff. We would hire them again without hesitation.

These people do really good work. They said they would be at my place between 0900 and 1100. They were coming from Elkhorn which is about 35 miles away. They arrived at 0910. They started at point A and worked till they found the problem. The wiring is over 40 years old, and what they found was a very dangerous wiring problem. If left unfixed, my house was in danger of burning down. These experts fixed the problem in short order and now all my lights work. They put everything back in place, cleaned up after themselves, and were very professional. I have great confidence in the company and its people. A family owned business built on quality work at a fair price. It is really nice to be able to trust what they tell you and not take you for an expensive ride. They are my electrical experts and the only one I will call.

They've been very good. We've used them a number of times and they've always been reasonable and on time.

They quoted me $1200 and it cost me exactly $1200. They were on time and courteous. They were very careful about keeping debris and everything down to a minimum. They did what I asked them to do and they did on time and very quickly. Their price was excellent. I rate them high overall. They were very professional. I will definitely use them again in the future.
