They could not have done it any better, unless they did it for free. They are now our primary electricians and recommend them to friends and family who ask.
Description of Work: Great service. They needed to replace a light switch and ground fault interrupt in our master bathroom, two outdoor flood lights that were hooked up to motion sensors and a bad outdoor electrical outlet. They completed all the work the same day. Turned out that one of the motion sensors they installed needed to be replaced because it was faulty. They came back day after we called, no questions asked, no extra charge and fixed it. Would use them again in a heart beat.

I called Russo at about 9:30am and they were able to come to our home by 1pm that afternoon. I was very surprised at the quick response. He came over, diagnosed the problem and replaced the light housing in about an hour. I balked a little bit at the $200 price, only because it seemed so easy for him to complete, but nevertheless, we were very please with the speed and quality of the work.

They did electrical installation and electrical fixtures which included lighting installation too. They were punctual and pleasant. They did a good job too. I didn?t get any estimates from them for the job, as it was a small job. I will use their services in the future as well.

During my initial call I left a message and someone got back to me within thirty minutes. We set up an appointment at 8:30am and after receiving an estimate I could decide if I wanted the job done right then. John and his assistant showed up promptly after calling to let me know they were on the way, and quickly and efficiently tested and replaced my two outlets. Then they removed an old flourescent fixture that had never worked and installed an incandescent fixture that now works perfectly. They were quick and extremely pleasant to deal with from start to finish.
Description of Work: Changed two outlet receptacles and replaced an overhead light fixture.

This was truly a pleasure. I don't want to praise Russo's too much, because too many people will find out just how wonderful they are. These people are the greatest, the most polite, knowledgeable, punctual, just the best. After many electricians who were picky about projects, expensive, not as knowledgeable, tardy this experience with Russo the just the very best.

Found on Angie's list, called to schedule an estimate. Mr. Russo's answering machine makes it easy as he states when he is usually in the office (early morning). I left a message on an afternoon, he called me the next morning, and we scheduled a time for an estimate - a few days later. Estimate took about 30 min, was very clear and helpful in determining what needed to be done. Mr. Russo was flexible with my schedule in setting a time for the repair work a few days later. For the repair work, Mr. Russo and two of his staff came. He got them started and then left, they took care of everything promptly and for the price quoted. Very professional, and I felt like I was getting honest, experienced advice.

This story had a rocky beginning. I initially called them a couple of weeks ago and made an 11 a.m. appointment. They did not show up, wasting my whole morning. I was furious. I called and left messages. At the end of the day, I received a call back from them. It was explained to me that they thought it was a "pending" appointment, and that's why they did not come. As far as they thought, it had not been finalized. I don't know where they got that idea, but I told them how they had inconvenienced me so much by not showing up. I received an earnest apology for the screwup, and we rescheduled for today. Two young men came promptly at 9 a.m., when they were scheduled. They brought their tools into my home and surveyed the situation. Fortunately, I have an attic which they could utilize to run the BX cable through without having to tear up my walls, so only two small holes had to be made, a few inches long each. They ran the cable, installed the box, put on a switchplate in an amazingly short time. They also then plastered the two holes very neatly and cleaned up every particle of dirt that they had generated. They put my dresser back and then demonstrated to me that the new outlet worked by flipping on the air conditioner. They MORE than redeemed themselves in my eyes for the initial scheduling problem by doing such exemplary work and taking some off the price as an apology. Therefore, I must recommend these guys as top-drawer. They came, they saw, they wired!
Description of Work: The gentlemen from Russo installed a dedicated electrical outlet for my bedroom air conditioner.

The project went very well. Mr. Russo came and gave an estimate on Tues, Nov 7. He said he could start work on Tuesday Nov 14, and be finished on Nov 15. Friday he called and asked if he could come on Monday, Nov 13. We agreed. He came about 11 AM with two young men. They worked until 4:30PM and came back next morning (today). They have just finished up and cleaned up. We checked all their work and paid the bill. Everything is fine and I must thank Angie's List as I am not used to hiring workmen and you made me feel more secure in my judgement.
Description of Work: Let me start by telling you that we own two attached houses built in 1907. My husband is a great starter but not the best finisher. Russo came in and finished all his projects. Light switches which did not work now do. Baseboard sockets are not falling out of wall, My doorbells rings and I have light out side of my front doors. My closet has a light and so does my upstairs hall. Walking into my basement, I am greeted with a light and in my back yard I have a new outlet. In one house, the overhead kitchen light did not work- the start of the great fan project- now the light works, but still no fan. One bathroom has a new light and one dining room has an overhead light.
