R & T Electric was the electrician service I selected after obtaining quotes from other local electricians. My preparation included providing a floor plan of each floor in my 1894 Victorian house. The best quote for the project time, costs for my rewiring and upgrade project and attention to my updating requests was from R & T. I had used them and other local electricians a number of times in the past. I chose R and T for the recent major project because first, they listened to my request for wiring upgrade, new panel and concerns for opening baseboards and recently renovated rooms. Second, they provided a detailed quote of the work to be done as to hourly rate for one and two man teams, separate materials cost and estimated time to complete the project. I selected the R and T team because they recognized and understood the construction challenges and advantages of balloon framing of a Victorian house.
My selection of R & T Electric was well placed. The two man team was prompt each day, kept me informed of their work status and consulted me when a decision on rewiring/ outlet placements were made. My floor plans provided them with valuable information on house construction and my preferred location for new outlets/ switches etc. The rewiring project resulted in a sensitive rewiring, replacement and upgraded features with minimum wall and baseboard openings. I was consulted and involved In the decisions to open baseboards and the one wall opening. The baseboards opened were carefully replaced, and in one area, replaced in better alignment than their original placement. The wall opening of 6" x 8" was critical to a basement to 3rd floor wiring. The skilled team removed the 6 x 8 piece of wallpaper and saved it for me and removed the same area of plaster and lathe. They completed the wiring, replaced the lathe. I will replaster the small area and reglue the wallpaper easily. A small inconvenience for me but a great creative resolution to rewiring that area with minimal repair.
R & T Electic finished the project ahead of the estimated time and below the price originally estimated. The team cleaned up each day and again after the project ended. The team was skilled in addressing 1894 rewiring, coordinated their daily project goals with me, were considerate of me and my old 3/4 renovated Victorian and competently creative in meeting old house challenges.
I recommend R & T for excellent electric sevice and sensitive, competent old house wiring knowledge. I would call them first in the future. read more
