I called re: a small socket replacement as there was a broken bulb base I had spent about an hour trying to extract the bulb and finally gave up. John told me what I was doing wrong and I removed it in two seconds per his instructions. He easily could have kept that to himself and charged me to come and do it himself.

Took time off his personal life off-hours (7PM) to help me! Fixed the problem so much faster than I expected too. A real life saver. Really nice to speak to as well, he's very kind. I would recommend him for all and any electrical needs! Just give him a call and he'll be more than glad to help, I'll definitely be using him again.

Called John at 445 on a Friday in need of a new circuit breaker. He was very willing to take on the job even though it was clear he was ready to end his day. He showed up an hour later, took his time to do the job right and talked me through exactly what he did. Best of all, he didn't try to take advantage of my situation and charge me an arm and a leg for the job. He was considerate of my time and my needs and I will definitely use him again. I highly recommend him!

We had a minor electrical problem on a hot sunny day and John was really responsive and considerate. He showed up on time and fixed the issue at hand and also made recommendations for a couple other projects. In all, it is good to have someone like him in the neighborhood and I would certainly recommend him

John Cahalane is a remarkable electrician. He's on time , he's fast, he's efficient and his rates are very reasonable. He knows his stuff. I highly recommend John Cahalane for electric needs. He managed to correct, in a few hours, the errors made by multiple electricians over the past five years.

John helped us with an issue we were having with our hard-wired smoke alarms. He was super responsive and willing to make time in his schedule to fit us in on very short notice. He arrived on time, and he resolved our issue quickly and efficiently. If you are looking for an honest and reliable electrician, you should definitely consider Cahalane!

It took 10 days to get a quote. I had to call back to confirm it was even coming. When I got it I was quoted $450 to wire an outlet and wire an existing pendant. A 2 hour project at the most and very easy.

Had a 5 star experience with John. He was totally professional, reasonably priced, speedy, and spent an extra half hour with me explaining all the different types of lights I have in my house (the owner before me put in 4 types of low energy green lights). I'd use him again in a heartbeat!

John is a great electrician and a great guy! Very responsive, personable, professional. Very fair rates and sensible advice. He solved a number of issues around my house efficiently. He carries a great number of spare parts, and was able to replace several pieces of equipment that had failed. I will be using him again on a more complex project.

I have used different electricians at my house over the past 15 years, and have never been satisfied with the ones I had used before. I am so happy with John Cahalane - now I have an electrician!
