Thayne came to my house as scheduled and helped me work on a random electrical issue with a treadmill and was able to resolve the issue. I will be using Beacon Electrical Services again in the near future for some other electrical work.

They sent a cracker jack of a technician to do the work: Thayne Murphy. He's the most personable electrician I've ever met and expeditiously and successfully fixed the two electrical problems I was having. I will use them again and will insist that Thayne be the one to do the work.

My issue is with HomeAdvisor. The companies you recommend are not best value for average consumers. The people you give high scores to are companies that charge excessively for their services as did Beacon Electric for their panel installation. Did they do good work? Yes they do good work but they charge the very top dollar for their service. HomeAdvisor should consider giving higher ratings to more cost conscious providers. I have seen the same phenomenon with other services recommended by HomeAdvisor. Ican not afford to use HomeAdvisor. Your top ratings go to overpriced providers.

Thayne and Brandon installed the ceiling light and disposed of the chandelier it replaced. They also inspected the electrical system and as a result I had them install an electrical panel surge suppressor and twelve replacement electrical sockets. The work was done well and I'm happy with the results.

Scheduled with Beacon and was reminded of appointment the day before. Electrician 'Jordan' arrived; looked a the floor outlet; explained current code and was very honest about what could and couldn't not be done with the outlet box - even came up with a few ideas for the flooring installers to provide an access point for the box in the future. Jordan also reviewed the wiring to main light switch in guest bedroom to determine best way to correct previous contractors mistake. Provided a quote on the spot which I believe was very reasonable and performed the work. Jordan also commented that since my house was build in mid-'80's he'd like to take a look at the panel for any corrosion, etc. before he left, just in case. Although no corrosion nor a need to replace the panel, he did find that several of the wire connector screws had become quite loose. He then mentioned that although I probably didn't need panel maintenance performed that minute, he did recommend scheduling the maintenance since my home was over 20 years old - again I was provided a quote. Additionally he informed that this is a service that needed to be performed every 10 years (which I actually verified and he was spot on!). After thinking about it while Jordan was still there, I did decide to schedule - Jordan than made the offer to stay and perform the maintenance rather than having someone come out on a second day (at this time it was around 7pm). I agreed and glad I did. As Jordan was performing the work he found that several screws had backed out significantly to the point where the lead wire could easily be pulled out and could have caused arcing and potential fire hazard. Can't thank Jordan and Beacon Electric enough for the great service and preventing a rather serious issue (i.e. fire)! Will definitely be calling Beacon again for my electrical service needs.

Overall, it went quite well. I had a circuit that was 'acting up' - the outlets were loose when plugging in a cord and a GFCI that was intermittently tripping. I also had some surface mounted wiring that needed to be placed correctly - into the wall. I showed the technicians the GFCI that was acting up, the electrical panel, and the area where the outlets needed to be placed correctly. They then spent the next 90 minutes diagnosing the circuit and formulating a plan to resolve my GFCI circuit and outlets. They then presented a detailed description of what they proposed to do - with options to choose. A quick fix - replace the GFCI - and solved the problem, an intermediate fix, and the complete fix. We discussed the offers, and we selected the complete fix - change the breaker, GFCI, and devices (plugs, switches) on that circuit and burying the outlets (a more expensive option - more labor/ drywall damage) in the wall. They had to return to complete the work - at my request/schedule- three days later due to the amount of work needed to complete the job. An exceptionally professional job! The holes in the drywall were done with the aid of a level and numbered! Holes had to be drilled in the wall studs to run the wire - yet the holes were only big enough to get the drill in the wall and pass the wire while allowing for ease of drywall repair while mounting the boxes to the wall studs (my request too). They took their time in answering all my questions and cleaned up the area they were working in. They also did replace some bathroom ventilation fans - not part of the original quote - with some excellent timers for the fans! I highly recommend Beacon Electrical.

The whole process from the original site visit to provide a quote to the install went very smoothly. The technician was very knowledgeable and did the work in the timeline and amount provided.

Very good work. Like other reviewers, I don't mind paying a little more for good work. We've been burned before and had to pay to have work re-done... not again if we can help it.

The work was done promptly and we were kept informed as to when the electricians would come. There were complications as the attic space was very tight and there were some major obstacles in putting in one of the new circuits. WIll did it all with a good will and no additional costs. Very thorough and well done. We strongly recommend Will. Also, I must mention Deidre the office scheduler, most cooperative and friendly. We had to call back as the celing fan made a ticking noise. The immediately scheduled a free service call and fixed the problem. They guarantee their work. I would unhesitatingly use them again.

Our experience with Beacon Electrical Services has left me and my wife very pleased and impressed with the work they done for us. We had a fan installed in our newly constructed deck enclosure. There was no supporting wiring or cabling for a fan installation. Bob Hanifin (the owner) and his technical assistant and electrician Brandon Lewis formulated a plan for the fan installation and support wiring needed for an outside environment. These gentlemen are great electrician, Bob runs his company with the utmost respect for customers' needs and desires. Brandon is an exceptional and knowledgeable electrician who works hard to give us a perfect installation. He was determine to complete the work to our satisfaction and did precisely that! I felt as if the value of the job done far exceeds the price of the job itself! I would recommend these guys to anybody in the area in need of a quality, reliable and affordable electrician. Bob and Brandon did a great job and completely satisfied my wife and I. You won't be disappointed if you hire this team to address your electrical needs.

I was very impressed with Beacon's customer service as well as the electrician, Will, that came to the house.  When they were running a little bit behind, the office called me to ensure that it would work out for my schedule in case they needed to make adjustments.  The electrician, Will, was very nice, smart, and professional.  I was very pleased and will definitely call Beacon whenever I have electrical needs! <br> <br>

Where 2 other "big boy" electrical services companies had missed represented electrical code requirements to unnecessarily inflate both the scope and cost of the project, Mike from Beacon took the time to fully explain the code and the actual repairs that were needed to address issues noted on a home inspection report.

A little pricey. They are worth the money spent. Showed up on time. Professional, courteous and neat. Mike B. Explained everything. Very clear and concise pricing. Great work. I will hire them again in the near future.
