Chandelier Installation

Robert overcame a challenge during the installation without getting ruffled. He's easy to work with. Duration of main installation was 4 hours. It took so long because the pieces of the chandelier needed to be assembled and wired together. I then spent another 4 hours hanging the individual crystals myself. The end result looks great!

HI Simon, thanks for the review, yes it was a little tricky. You were lucky to have that carpenter onsite to assist. Thanks for the picture the Chandelier looks wonderful. It must of been a lesson in patience hanging the crystals.I'll drop you a line when we can return for the entrance chandelier
Cheers

Found and resolved two short circuits

Robert arrived the next afternoon to track down an apparent short in a bank of eight pot lights. He found and resolved two shorts so quickly (one in the switch and one in a pot light) that, as return customers, he only charged the bare minimum for his service. Robert is a great guy and will be our house electrician from now on.

Helpful and professional! Goes above and beyond.

I hired Robert to resplice the aluminum branch wiring in an old townhouse that I recently purchased. Robert was extremely professional, thorough, friendly, and helpful. He also replaced all the switches and outlets which improved the look and safety of the house. In addition, he installed a light fixture and cleaned up some exposed wiring, and also replaced the smoke alarm. He ran out and purchased those things for me! Upon completion of the resplicing, he provided me with a letter outlining the work he had done, for future reference. He also provided advice about how to improve (look better and save money) a light fixture in the shower, and advised me on how to make the living room track lighting work properly (it was turning on and off). In other words, he was incredibly helpful! As a first time home owner who doesn't know about electrical things, I am very grateful for Robert's assistance, which was above and beyond what I had expected, and I would recommend him to anyone!

Circuit breakers turned off; with help of a neighbour thought all fixed - but had 3 dead plugs in kitchen - fridge in centre of room; trouble getting an electrician - slow to return calls, 10 days before able to come ... 3rd try to Redford Electric - call returned immediately, in area - so stopped by to provide free estimate, able to fix the problem ... all within 1 hour!!

Circuit Breaker Work

Replaced a couple of circuits on a breaker. Reliable and no issues with quality, but was a little pricier than other options. Would recommend if you're in need of a good electrician.

Small Indoor Lighting Project

We found Redford Electrical on homestars.com and with all the positive reviews, it was very obvious that we should drop them a line to get the ball rolling. AND we are so glad we did! He installed some pot-lights in the bedroom, closet and pantry. Robert was amazing to work with. He was on time and extremely professional yet friendly throughout the process. We would DEFINITELY recommend Redford Electricals for all your
electrical needs. Last but not least, shout-out to homestars for helping us all connect with professionals that truly are - Professionals!

Thanks for the Great review Guys!!! The Project went well and on schedule. I'd like to say we got lucky but we have been doing renovations like this and potlight installations retrofits for many years and have a few tricks up our sleeves. That being said you two were very easy to work for and that in itself made things flow well.
Cheers and enjoy the lighting.

Thanks Wolfgang, it was a pleasure working with you and Carrie. And thanks for taking the time to place a review. With the Electrical Service Upgrade and the knob and tube rewiring your house is now ship shape as they say. On another note:
Pauls son is enjoying the Helicopter. If you ever want to clean out some of your stuff ( fishing etc. ) in the basement give me a call.
Cheers

Replace Knob and Tube Wiring

We have a turn of the century home with knob and tube wiring in approximately half of the house. After looking at a number of contractors, we chose Robert Redford Electrical to update the wiring based on experience, the thorough pre-job inspection, his Homestar reviews and the reasonable quote. Robert completed the work in two long days (less time than was expected) with very minimal damage to our home - something that we were quite concerned about since the walls and ceiling are plaster and lath. From start to finish, Robert was professional and provided clear and concise information. I have no reservations in recommending Robert Redford Electrical to other potential clients.

HI Dave, Thanks for your kind words, we are starting to be well versed in this Knob and Tube thing I must say. For anybody looking to have this done feel free to call us we have a long list of referrals and happy customers. Knob and tube rewiring is not the easiest thing to do but we can make it a little less painful if you give us a chance.
Thanks again Dave have a Great Summer!!
