Rick from Joe Gioffre Electric was totally awesome. He has a unique business model that will save you money - Rick is the owner/operator who is a licensed and insured electrician while his wife answers all calls, schedules work, and sends emaiil quotes. Rick is super knowledgable and super nice. Don't let the high cost of my job scare you away. I felt I got a real bargain since another (but much larger) company wanted way more $$$. Rick did a lot of work and was at my house six full days. Some more fun facts about Jioffre Electric - Rick works very efficiently and rapidly and is a really hard worker - I lost count how many times he climed up and down my attic to run wire and in the frigid cold to run and route wire. Also I really appreciated great communications. He answered all questions via. email and always either called or texted each time he was on his way. As the sole owner of his company he tries hard to please every customer.

Transparent, knowledgeable, and professional service from Rick. The front office provided reassurance regarding timing and confirmation of service. Rick, ensured the scope of work was in line with ours and effectively communicated expectations regarding some drywall removal/re-patching (his drywall re-patching was phenomenal)! Everything works and is placed where we wanted it. He did a great job.

Needed a new electrician and chose Gioffre based on excellent customer reviews. An exterior outlet went dead and effected several other outlets inside and outside our home. Work was scheduled promptly and expertly completed by Rick Heitz. He is an extremely knowledgeable professional who efficiently completed what turned out to be a complex job at a fair price. Very pleased we engaged this fine company, which will be our go-to source from now on.

I have used Joe Gioffre Electric Co twice and both times not only has the work and price been very good, so has the customer service. Rick and his wife Stacy both were focused on delivering a great customer experience. My calls were handled promptly and so was the work. I would highly recommend that you use Joe Gioffre Electric Co for any size project that you have.

I needed a bunch of stuff done. Was blowing fuses, had outlets that either didn’t work or partially worked. Also needed a new outlet installed for a portable AC upstairs. Rick came out and gave me an estimate...and I called to schedule before he backed out of my driveway. He did all the work today and I’m so impressed. He’s fast, knowledgeable, nice and VERY reasonable. He’s gonna be my only electrician.

Everything went exactly as planned. He arrived right on time and spent most of the day doing our work. He replaced 3 hall/stair lights that hung down from the ceiling with flush LED lights. They are so sleek and bright and the look of the area is greatly improved. He then replaced a single kitchen fixture with 6 flush LED fixtures. He spaced them exactly to illuminate the surfaces in the area. It was quite a task as it is a very high cathedral ceiling. Lighting has always been a problem in the kitchen, now it is amazing. The fan problem was tested at no additional charge. I had never used this company before but they will be my go to company from here on.
Description of Work: We wanted multiple lights replaced with LED can lights and a ceiling fan looked at that was not working.

Here's where it got strange. i thought I was dealing with Joe Gioffre Electric Co but instead it appears they sub-contracted with a company called My Electric Works .... when I asked if he was sub-contracted and why not Gioffre he was unable to answer so he made a preliminary diagnosis then said it would could $470 dollars to replace one GFI outlet and remove 3 GFI's on the same circuit and install normal outlets which I thought was way too much so i paid the estimate fee and will hire someone to replace the outlets at a price I can live with. Three points: Why did Angie's List not note that this company uses subcontractors and not their own employees, why does the phone number 614-689-3489 that Angie's List provides connect one to a number that rings and rings and then goes to a busy signal and finally why wouldn't a reputable company provide an hourly rate so customers have a better idea of what to expect? Not a good Angie's List experience; not a good Joe Gioffre Electric experience. The young electrician who works for My Electric Works was competent but I would not have ordered an estimate had I know it would be a sub-contractor and not the company reviewed by Angie's List who would show up.
Description of Work: Read reviews they looked ok so called for a quote ... they quoted $30 for estimate call but would not provide an hourly rate.

Excellent Experience! Called the office on a Tuesday and there was an opening for a Thursday appointment. Rick was running a little behind at another job and was in contact every step of the way updating his arrival time. He showed up right when he said he would and was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. He did an extremely professional and efficient job! It took him an hour and a half to complete the job! He even saved drywall cutouts and reinstalled sections he had to cut! I couldn't have been happier with the service, we will definitely use him in the future! I have already recommended him to others!
Description of Work: 2 electrical boxes installed, 6 LED Wafer lights wired, dimmer switch installed, reworked switch box in kitchen
