Best electrician ever! I highly recommend him for any jobs. He completely redid most of the electricity in our house and did quality work!!! He replaced every two prong outlet and made it three prong; he added two outlets outside; he added 3 ceiling lights, 1 ceiling fan, and 2 bathroom exhaust fans, and more. This was all done for an extremely fair price. His work is great and he is also a really nice and professional guy.

Everything was great! I made a mistake with the length of wire needed to put in a new outlet and Derek just grabbed some scrap from his truck and stuck to the same quote. Explained everything clearly and got the job done. Will be first person to call for all electrical needs. March 2018 ($190 for labor and parts for a new dryer outlet 20 feet from panel to outlet location plus some misc electrical work) Highly recommended!

Details: Install switch or outlet • 1 switch or outlet • No, there is no existing wiring • Rooms without water access (e.g., bedroom) • Basement • I would like to discuss with the professional • House

Derek was great. He arrived on time, he did everything he told me he would do. He ran some wires for me and put up a ceiling fan and a beautiful fixture in the living room. He also changed some existing fixtures. He cleaned up well after himself. His price was very fair. I would highly recommend him

We hired Derek to wire 18 new recessed lights throughout the home, along with a few pendant lights, fire alarm wiring, 2 bathroom exhaust fans, and the rewiring of several plug outlets and light switches from walls that were removed. He showed up when promised and did an excellent job. He is extremely hard-working and worked non-stop over two days to complete this extensive work, and was meticulous. I had to leave a few times and had no hesitation trusting him inside the home or leaving him a key to return the following day. In addition to his excellent work, he was a pleasure to have around and we would recommend and rehire him again in a heartbeat!

Derek was prompt, professional and personable. I was at home while he was doing the work, and I could tell right away he was a true professional. He got right to work and knew exactly how to tackle the project. It's obvious that electrical work is his passion as it appears to come easy to him. We had him do one other project while he was here, and we're both happy with all the work he delivered. Oh, and we'll be hiring him again down the road! Thank you, Derek!

FAQs

• What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

  The pricing varies according to the job at hand. Sometimes a set quote will make more sense than doing a job on an hourly basis. It really does depend on the job itself. Either way I aim to be very reasonable and competitive in my pricing...

• What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

  I normally try to communicate clearly any questions I may have as well as trying to get a good understanding of the job so that I am able to complete the job as efficiently and professionally as possible. Communication is key to getting a job done well....

• What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

  I graduated a technical high school and have continued to complete continuing education classes since becoming a journeyman electrician.
