Stove Gas Line Installation

Before I found De Koning, I tried to get the quotation from at least 4 companies on Homestars, and several companies on google. However, none of them actually give me the quote. Most of them pick up my phone or reply my email said they will contract me in shot, but nothing happened. I know my job is a small job and time is tight. During the rush season, those companies maybe doesn't care my job. But if you don't want my job, just don't give me the hope and waste my time.
Since my stove will arrived at 4 days, I research again and found Karel from this company. He is very nice. He knows my concern, and quickly give me an approximately price, and made a time at weekend.
In the end, I really appreciate Karel made my job done. The gas line is installed nicely and professionally. And the stove set up and works very well. All the pressure test and certificate are all set. I'm highly recommend Karel De Koning to anyone who wants to do the gas line job.

Excellent electrical service for big and small jobs

We have been using De Koning Electrical and Mechanical since 2015 and are extremely well pleased with both the work and the other important things like communication, showing up on time etc. Jobs have included upgrading an electrical panel from fuses to circuit breakers and installing a whole house surge protector, installing stove fan, and various light fixtures and dimmer switches. Description of the work and the cost is clearly explained up front. And if you like to know the how or the why of your electrical issues, that can also be provided. Very highly
recommended!

electrical

De Koning Electrical & Mechanical completed two jobs successfully another electrician could not resolve and/or would take on. The first - troubleshooting why certain lights periodically would randomly go out for unspecified times then back on, and the second - installation of two breaker panels one replacing an odd sized fuse box in a confined area.
I have no hesitation in recommending De Koning and will use them for all future issues.

Gas cap off and electrical work

Was switching from gas to electric and had to get gas capped off, check some electrical stuff. I thought I needed a new electrical panel and did not as it turned out - he came on time, got the work done quickly, very polite and pleasant - he even showed me where to find valves to turn things on and off in the basement and outdoors should I need to. I am happy with the work and would hire again or recommend to anyone.

Re-routing a gas line

I had an emergency gas issue that required re-routing of a gas line. I immediately contacted De Koning electrical and received excellent service from Karel. He provided an estimate, equipment required and timeline of repair and delivered exceptional service. I highly recommend De Koning over any large company gas services that treat you like a number rather than an appreciated. A++.

Fast & great furnace repair

We woke up this morning to find that our furnace had died overnight, and with a rapidly cooling home. I called Karel, who was able to immediately schedule us in (and was over in less than an hour!). He was rapidly able to identify the problem with our furnace, source a replacement part, and finish the fix in a matter of hours. Amazing! And during the process, Karel gave clear explanations on what he was doing and gave helpful advice on how I should maintain the furnace and our electrical system going forward. Thank you so much for the amazing experience!

Changing Fuse Box to a Sub-panel

My parents bought a new cook-top and a new oven. During installation, the cook-top was damaged because the installer put all the wires from the fuse box into one junction box. There was a huge spark and blew the wire of the cook-top. We thank God for Karel. He was able to install a sub-panel for the cook-top and oven. Everything is working perfectly and he has made it super safe. We are grateful for the wonderful job that Karel did!

Hi May, we were happy to come to help fix the problem. Unfortunately many appliance installers aren't properly trained to do electrical work. We are sorry that this happened to you but are glad we could fix it before any further harm would occur. Thank you for choosing us for your electrical and mechanical needs. Best regards, Karel.

Hi Chris, We feel for you about your difficult situation and know that tough lessons are hard to endure at times. We decided to accept your request to help and be cheerful knowing that it's for the greater good. Profit in money isn't always our driving motivation, but the ability to help people in need is why we got into business in the first place. Many may say it's foolish to take on this job and turn away because of such complications, and risk without gain. We are happy for charities sake and to demonstrate that goodness can win over the bad. It's important for us to let people know we care and have their best interest at stake. Thank you again Chris for letting us be part of your solution and not your problem. best regards Karel.
