GERACO ELECTRIC

Work was to be completed before I moved in. Worked alone without supervision because I was living in the Kansas City area at that time, waiting for my remodel to be completed. House was burglarized, apparently by someone who had a key from previous inhabitant. Gerald asked neighbors to watch the house and responded when called. Upon completion, I mailed a check and asked for an itemized bill. Apparently this was too much trouble because Gerald never furnished one. I directed that ALL florescent fixtures have 4 tubes, but several had only 2 tubes not emitting the light that I wanted. The garage is too dark with the 2 tube fixtures compounded by the fact that I ordered 4 fixtures and only 3 were installed! Gerald told me that I didn't need 3 backyard lights and only installed 2. It is too dark for me in one area! Being disabled, it took me almost 5 years after I moved in to figure out why the garage and office were so dark. I called Gerald about the florescent fixtures and he said that he moved to Lubbock and could do nothing now. I had provided written instructions and included a diagram of where the fixtures were to go.

,The first visit was to explain and start troubleshooting the ground fault issue with a few of my circuits. It took a fair amount of time to determine what needed to be done, as the previous owner, in defiance of all logic, had tied the ground for two circuits together. repair of the issue was relatively simple, if uncomfortable. Gerry took care of business, told me what he was doing and why, and cleaned up after. He was a real professional. I regularly recommend him to friends that need electrical help.

I called Gerald, explained my problem, and made an appointment. He showed up on time, and thoroughly checked the possible reasons for the issue. After climbing in the attic, he found that previous owners has run two circuits with one ground, and that parts of the circuits were using the neutral as a ground. Fortunately, only one additional electric feed (and some minor repairs) was needed to fix the problem. A second appointment was required since both he and I had other commitments.
He worked quickly, neatly, and professionally. Total expense from the two appointments was reasonable, and he was able to explain what was going on as he was checking out the problem.
