panel, corrective action on defects, miscellanious

Mike, Jonathan, Virgil, Dave K, Joe F have all been to ensure that this rental property we own that is rented to students is safe, that all circuits were able to handle the loads that were placed on them as well as ensuring the wiring in the renovation area was safe. Frank was treu to his word and was able to perform the work on a timely and cost efficient basis. When Frank gave me his initial quote, I felt it was perhaps a bit high, however he told me that should the job be done in less days the cost would also reduce. Now I have dealt with numeraous contractors and this was a first to me and true to his word, the work was done in less days than anticipated and the cost of course went down. The guys who worked here were great and as always have done everything to ensure that we were happy and that our students were in a safe environment.

New Electrical Panel and Troubleshooting

If you're looking for good electrical trades who are courteous, respectful and fun to be around, then you MUST hire the Solutions team.

I had my electrical panel updated, a trouble-shooting review and miscellanceous electrical work completed....and I would NOT trust anyone but this company to come in and do this work.

The whole team, from Frank giving the quote, Perez coordinating the schedule to the onsite team of Virgil, Jonathan & Lorenzo, were easy to deal with, efficient and completed the work on time! I recommend this company highly and would hire them again in a minute!

Wiring worries put to rest

As a diehard fan of Holmes on Homes, I knew Frank would be the only Electrician I would trust in my home. When I finally bought a partially renovated home last June, I turned to Frank to make sure everything was right. Frank arrived on time and spent a lot of time answering my questions and explaining what was needed. His crew (I believe it was Robin and Jonathan) showed up on time and spent hours checking everything thoroughly and making changes where needed. The $600 price tag bought me peace of mind and you can't put a price on knowing your home is safe from wiring hazards. I've recommended Frank and his team to everyone I know and will continue to do so. I'll be calling him back to install potlights later this year.

complete re-wire

We highly recommend Solutions Electrical for their professionalism, speed, attention to safety & detail, as well as their great customer service. I would not hesitate to call them again for any future electrical needs. We recently purchased a 90 yr old home with 90% outdated wiring (mostly knob & tube). Their quote was very reasonable and competitive compared to the other companies. When the crew showed up to work, they worked very quickly and efficiently. They also did a great job of cleaning up after themselves, and accommodating most of our strange requests relating to the age & details of our old home. Besides their great knowledge & experience of re-wiring, we really enjoyed the personality of all of the electricians that were involved in the job. Thanks again guys!

Any advice to offer fellow homeowners facing a similar project?
Make sure to plan your electrical plan before you have the job quoted. Include all extra things like your coax-cable, telephone, satellite, and network cable in the plan. Also make sure to arrange someone to hook your exhaust fans (bathroom/kitchen/etc) up to the outside via ductwork & vents.

Basement Refit

We too were lucky enough to find Frank and his team when planning a complete gut and reno on our 1950's bungalow basement. Like most postings, Frank was cordial and educational as we walked through what needed to be done. I agree with many comments that there are corners you can cut when doing a reno - electrical is not an option!

Frank was originally referred to us by our contractor, but we were aware of the tie to Holmes on Homes. We were lucky enough to use all H on H contractors for all aspects of our reno and all were exceptional!

As renos can linger past original dates, we called Solutions last minute to have someone come out just to install an outlet for a wall-mounted TV that was installed before all reno was complete. Johnathan showed up literally minutes later and installed the plug so the installers could set up the TV!

There was a minor issue after all work was completed. Frank personally came back on a Saturday morning, with his crew, to resolve on the spot - and delayed accepting payment until everything was resolved to my satisfation - that's credibility!

All work was done to 100%+ standards - and bang on estimate. I didn't bother with lots of quotes, as I was hiring an electician with a solid reputation. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for top notch services.

Electrical

In Sept 2008 my father’s washing machine was causing some problems so he called a repair person. This person convinced my dad that his electrical service would require replacement in addition to fixing the washing machine. My dad being 84 accepted the word of this person. In reality all that was needed was a new washing machine. $3293.00 later the work was done. Yet, the washing machine remained broken and the electrical work was done incorrectly and without a permit.
My dad paid the bill and later was sent another bill for over $12000.00. Dad did not pay the second bill. Once I became aware of the events I contacted the repair person. I was advised the $12000.00 charge was in error. Suspecting that the electrical work might be faulty, I contacted Solutions Electric. I obtained their info from the “Holmes on Homes” website.
Frank at Solutions listened to the problem. He then set to work to “make it right”. Frank advised me that the work that had been done was illegal since no permit was issued and a $50,000 fine could be levied against the person who did the work. Frank contacted that person and arrangements were made to assess the work on my dad’s electrical service. The work was deficient.
A couple of days after that, Joe, Frank’s number 2 man, came in with the proper permit to correct the deficient work. Within 2 hours the situation was resolved. The repair person paid for Solutions services and even refunded some money to my father.
I can not say enough about the time and effort Frank put into resolving not only the electrical service but also addressing the situation with the errant repair person. The Solutions team is Professional in all respects. They went above and beyond just doing a job. They take their profession seriously, are committed to quality work and strive to improve their industry’s image.

New Kitchen and electrial panel

I decided to remodel my kitchen this year and figures it was time to upgrade my panel from fuse as well as clean up the dangerous wiring the previous owners had left.Frank came and did the quote himself and pointed out a few things i had missed.When the job started the guys where prompt and on time .When the clean-up of the wiring became bigger than expected they got another electrian there right away to help and make sure the job got done on time.Out of all the Trades i had in they were one of the few to clean up after themselves.Work was execellent and i will be having Solutions come back this spring to do the wiring for my rec room in the basement.As a Tradeperson myself I also liked the fact that Frank employs apprentices as there is shortage of skilled trades in this country and am glad Frank is doing his part. Thanks guys it was an enjoyable expereince.

knob and tube removal and new electrical panel

Our home is approximately 100 years old. Needless to say there have been numerous "improvements" that had been done to the electrical system over the years. We were looking to eventually finish the basement and as we investigated what was down there we found remnants of knob and tube and way too many junction boxes. Clearly far from ideal. Anyway, the Solutions team came in and fixed everything. They were professional, knowledable ( lots of great suggestions ), polite and treated the house as if it was their own. A special thanks to Virgil. We would highly recommend Solutions.

rewire my home

The quotes for a rewire of my old home, were all over the map, the person I hired to wire my home promised the world and was very cheap on the price, he told me I did not need permits and asked me to pay 60% in cash, this was how he could give me a good deal... the job was about 80% done and we started to see many weird things like using my microwave caused blowing the fuse for my entire upper level. this was when I went back to reveiwing my other quotes and came across a list that Frank left us, that said that the bedroom plugs were to be own their own breaker (AFCI????) next day when I asked the contactor he told me, that was one of the ways to do it, Yet it was a cash grab and I did not the that expensive breaker. I called Frank (he called back next day) when I explained to him he told us it was code and to check with ESA. Frank was not pleased to hear my story, yet was willing to help...... I can go on for days about how great Franks team was... I was tring to save a buck, and wasted $4,000.00 the worst part about it was I trusted a loser, and found out the ESA permit would have helped me from a clown like this. PLEASE let my mistake help you do not get ripped off trust the pro's.... Frank I will tell every body like I promise to you, MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND EVERYTHING YOU DO.
