Wiring, replace and add lights

The work was well done. I had a new light wired to the outside of the home, electricity run into the sunroom,a kitchen light replaced and a few minor things done. The price was laid out clearly and there was no surprise billing. Awesome job, would highly recommend!

Removal of 2 old breaker panels and a mess of old wiring and replace with a completely new 200A service.

There were 2 very old 100 amp breaker panels, one which must have been added later than the original. There were wires coming and going every which way. In fact one of the panels had started to fail and would cause brown outs in the half of the house periodically. The Shock Doctors completely removed both the old panels and the drywall surrounding them. The panel was also being slightly relocated so a junction box was required as well to sort out the bird's nest of wires. The wall of the utility room was refreshed by the electricians with new plywood before the new 200 amp panel and junction box were installed. As this was not a typical panel swap and I needed power back asap The Shock Doctors sent 2 electrician to do the job. Scott and Jonathon were both very friendly, professional and courteous. They completed the job in record time and cleaned up after. Power was back on before dinner much to the delight of my wife. As a retired electrician I knew what would be required for this job and it was too big for me to take on alone, hence the need for other professionals. My only regret is that I did not take a before picture so you could see just what a mess the panel(s) were before the work began. I would highly recommend both the company and their electricians.

Scott and Johnathon were very professional and knowledgeable and also courteous. They showed up on time and did all that was to be done on that day and also answered all my questions and concerns as they were working away. I would recommend them and the shock doctors to anyone looking for electrical work. Thank you again Judy Smith(and Rudy)(the dog).

Installation of heater control and some repairs

Called them as the closest electrician (listed under another name). I had a project to install an internet-based controller for electric heat by Honeywell. Scott arrived and together we figured out the complex instructions and he did the proper electrical connections and re-routes to replace the old in-line system. When an outdoor GFI receptacle failed we called again. Both times he arrived quickly and did the job with intelligence and care. The price is standard rates for professional work - more than a handyman but the work is better - and that's important for serious electrical repairs and installations.
