E Brian's Electric is an electrical company that says on its website it has been family owned and operated since 1980. Connecticut electrician license ELC.0103981-E1, held by Edmund B Wohlforth, is active on the state registry. In a 2014 review, a customer said he rebuilt an antique outdoor electric lantern in about 1.5 hours, at about the same price as installing a new, cheap one. A 2013 customer said they left no mess behind and were very reasonably priced. A 2018 customer said the old oven was removed and the new one hooked up to electric, but the wall oven cabinet was broken when they tried to install the oven into it, and the new oven was left sitting on the kitchen floor. That 2018 customer said they blamed the original installer. On Angi it holds 2.8 stars from 4 ratings.
The old oven was removed with no problems. New one was hooked up to electric. The wall oven cabinet was broken when they tried to install the oven into it. The new oven was left sitting on the kitchen floor, useless. They blamed the original installer for not installing cabinet correctly, though original installation went without breakage. It did not get broken until E Brian attempted to install new one incorrectly.
Rebuilt an antique outdoor electric lantern that I was going to replace with a new (cheap) one. He convinced me that the antique lamp was worth rebuilding at approximately the same price as installing a new, cheap one. It took him about 1.5 hours to do the job and I was very pleased to have the lantern restored to its original condition (solid antique copper, heavy glass, electric lantern). It was particularly satisfying because the lantern was handmade by a metal-working craftsman in my family, and I will now will it to one of my heirs.
They were fantastic. They came in and were very professional. They did what they needed to do and they didn't leave any mess behind. They were very reasonably priced. They were also very friendly, very personable and did a really good job.
