The troubleshooting accounts carry the most detail. In an October 2017 review, a customer said an outlet problem was affecting both a washer and a gas dryer, and that he found it, changed the outlet, fixed the wires inside and explained what he was doing. A July 2019 reviewer said he correctly worked out a difficult problem caused by a plasterer who had left a loose, live wire inside the wall. In February 2019, a customer said that after planning a job for a later date he came back on his way home that night to remove a damaged box because he was concerned about its safety. An April 2021 reviewer said he fixed light switches, then a garage light, a loose door knob, and showed them how to open the garage door without the opener in a power outage, at a price they called very reasonable. In October 2022 a customer described him replacing all their smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.
Two reviews describe jobs that ended with power out. In a March 2018 review, a customer said he installed a panel, they were left without power the next day, and he said it was not his fault before doing something at the panel that restored it; that reviewer also called the price high and said he would nickel-and-dime everything. A May 2019 reviewer gave three stars because one side of the house was left with no electricity and he could not come back. A February 2018 reviewer called the work good quality but not cheap.
The most recent review, from October 2023, said he was professional and quick.
