Replace knob and tube, update wiring
We found Bill through this website, and after consulting with 3 other electricians, decided to go with Bill because of his thoroughness, and his professionalism. All of the estimates came back relatively close, but Bill's estimate was the most transparent (he breaks down what everything cost, so there are no hidden surprises at the end), and he pointed things out that none of the other electricians had noticed.
The updating took about a week and a half, including all the patching and sanding of the walls. His team were very respectful and efficient, and you can barely tell where the holes were after all the plastering was done. We were pleasantly surprised, as we'd heard some horror stories from friends who'd had knob and tube work done in the past.
At the end of the job, Bill even reimbursed us for 3 or 4 items that he didn't have to do (they were already up to code), reducing the fee by roughly $500. A less honest person wouldn't have done this, and with all the work being done, we likely wouldn't have noticed it. It's nice to work with someone with such integrity.
In the end, we were very pleased with Bill's work, and would recommend him hands down to anyone. In the future when we need any electrical work, he'll be the one we call.
