"The owner came out the week before to look at a circuit that would not reset and some light switches that were not functioning properly. While inspecting the panel he noted its age and the unavailability of parts. We were aware that the service should be upgraded as we had other quotes from about 5+ years ago. He was thorough and fully explained what would be involved and
provided an immediate quote. The quote seemed reasonable. Based upon past quotes it was higher, but we were also having some additional outlet and light switch work done. We agreed and he scheduled the work for a week later.
We received a confirmation call from the office the day before they were to arrive. The two workers arrived at the scheduled time. They were friendly and explained what they were going to do, what they needed to see and the expected time frames. They set to work. They were neat, orderly and appeared to concentrate closely on their work ? a good quality for electricians.
The installation required moving the height of the electrical box on the outside of the house as well as installing a new riser (the pipe that goes through the roof that the electrical wires attach to from the telephone/electric poles). This required drilling large holes through the roof and overhang. They were meticulous in this process as our overhangs are vinyl covered so they were
careful to cut the hole as precisely as possible and carefully finished the flashing and sealing of the riser on the roof. As a side note, another contractor that was at our house later wanted to know who did our electrical installation as they remarked what good work had been done on the riser install ? they said they see a lot of sloppy jobs, but this one was very professional.
At one point the lead electrician came to us and said that in the install of the new main service wire into the house, the outer casing had been nicked. He said that he felt it was best to replace it even though a patch of the plastic coating is the acceptable remedy. He said that the longevity of replacement wire versus a patch was more assured, but they would have to come back
the next morning to do that replacement, which they did, and at the appointed time. At the end of the first day, they cleaned up everything, all of the wire bits and casings where the new panel was installed, all of the wires and old parts outside.  Then they also went room by room and tested all of the outlets to identify which circuit they were on and did a detailed labeling of our new panel.
We would highly recommend them. They were professional, they were knowledgeable, they worked steady and deliberately, they cleaned up, they showed up when they said they would, they took the time to explain the new panel and as mentioned above, they were competitively priced.

Sewer Cleaning questions, answered by experts

If the toilet is overflowing but there’s no clog, that’s a sign that the issue is deeper in the system, and plunging may not help. A blockage in your home’s plumbing, the plumbing vent, or even city sewer lines can cause toilets to overflow. The issue could also be the toilet itself if the filler float isn’t set to the correct height or if parts are damaged or worn out.

If your drain doesn’t have metal crosshairs or crossbars, you should use a tub drain extractor. These tools create a grip on the drain so you can turn it using a 1/2-inch ratchet drive, drain key, or wrench. Your drain may not have crosshairs if it's old and broken.

It’ll take 20 to 30 minutes to unclog a sewer line using a drain snake or drain cleaner. If you hire a professional, you should expect them to be on-site for three hours or less. In addition to clearing the clog, they’ll do other routine inspections, which adds to the overall time (and cost) required.

While some chemical drain cleaners with hydrochloric acid can dissolve hair, this method is not recommended as it can also destroy your plumbing pipes. A common DIY alternative is using baking soda and vinegar, which can help break down the clog but will not actually dissolve the hair. The best and safest method for clearing a hair clog is to remove it manually. You can use a drain snake, a straightened wire hanger with pliers to fish out the clog, or have a plumber use a professional auger for more severe blockages.

It's advisable to have your sewer line inspected every three to five years to ensure its proper functioning and detect any potential issues early on. However, the frequency of inspections can vary based on factors such as the age of your sewer system, the type of pipes used, and your property's location. If you notice any warning signs like slow drains, foul odors, or sewage backups, it's essential to schedule an inspection promptly, regardless of the regular maintenance schedule.
