    I called as a local non profit for advice and help with a heating system at a local children's summer camp. "We are so busy right now we can't help you. Maybe in June, but that is our busy time. Call someone else"

    Awful company. Do not use them as they will
    Overcharge and take advantage of any opportunity to gouge.
    Especially the elderly and look for the reputable companies in the area..
    Definitely do NOT USE THEM .
    Opening or closing your place before or after the winter!

    Terrible business overcharging and trying to make advantage of us. The plumber brought in a trainee for a trivial work of changing the valve in the water heater (took him 10 mins) and charged us for trainee time! The other time he replaced our burned sump pump with the wrong one and after we complained tried to charge us extra to install the right one. Both the plumber and the lady in the office are rude. Will never do business with them again and do not recommend that others do

    Our basement was flooding and even though they had a booked schedule and someone out on vacation.... Candice was able to schedule Tom to come out and help us out. We appreciate it so much. Service is fantastic.

    They came in and replaced an old cast iron vertical sewer pile. They cut into the wall at precisely the right spot with minimal impacts. They fixed the problem perfectly and cleaned up after again perfectly. Very polite and efficient.

    I had these guys out to winterize my house a few years ago. The request to do the work was on short notice (winter set in early) but the came right over to do the job. $800 (wow!) later the job was done. The following spring I went to open up the place and both toilets were broken and the core of the 2 year old hot water heater was toast. I went to discuss with the owner and he said he wasn’t going to honor his work because I didn’t hire them to do it. I fixed the toilets myself and one of the guys that did the work felt bad enough that he came by to replace the heater core. That was the last of my experiences with Brookside but I’ve heard some doozies.

    Thanks to Jeff our washer drain is working again. This was not an emergency so we did have to wait. He was very honest on what he could do or could not do with regard to the way our house was plumbed. Would use him again, have used Brookside before without any problem. 😻

    I’ve hired this company a few times in the past. They replaced my old oil burner with a smaller wall mounted propane unit that took up half the space and saved me a ton of money in heating bills. Recently I called them to see if they could add a dishwasher in my kitchen. Paul came out and found a way to instal one right next to my sink. I have found them to be professional and extremely knowledgeable. I would not hesitate to use them again for all my plumbing needs.

    Landon did a fantastic job getting my house set up for a portable backup generator. He does quality work and spent quite a bit of time going over my specific system and answering questions. Would highly recommend and will hopefully use again. Thanks Landon!

    Personable, Honest, professional and intelligent are just a few things that come to mind when I think of Contrivance Electric.
    Highly recommend this company for any of your Electric needs.
    In the future if need arises, Contrivance Electric with Landon Lavore and his wife Sarah will be who i call first.
    If you want it done correctly the first time call Contrivance!!!

    I'm very happy with Contrivance. Sarah returned my calls promptly, the electrician showed up when they said they would, did a great job, cleaned up well, and charged a fair price. I would absolutely call them again.

    We had a tune up on our generator and Landon was very knowledgeable and friendly, he answered any questions I had. He also pointed out a few things we need to consider for our generator. i would recommend Lavore Electric for any work needed.

    I would wholly recommend this company for a residential electrical needs. Landon was very professional, very knowledgeable and very thorough in my generator maintenance. They even notified me via text that he would be a little late. I am very pleased with the work and the worker.

    Lavore Electric installed a propane generator at my home to keep the power going in case of an outage. They provided a fair and detailed quote and handled the difficult job of scheduling the excavation, gas work and permits so it was easy for me. They did a good job and the installation looks clean and thought out.

    We had to replace our 20 year old 30 Kw Kohler generator because the old one blew the engine and Kohler doesn't make that engine anymore. I had been dealing with Generator Connection for many years but I wasn't comfortable with the answers I was getting on the new installation and decided to try Lavore Electric (Contrivance Electrical in Wolfeboro). Best decision I ever made. Working with Sarah on the phone and Landon on site was amazing. At every point in the process I was emailed the appointment and the whole experience was well planned and well executed. Old generator removed, new concrete pad poured, new wiring to the house, new propane gas line and then the new generator installed. When complete you couldn't tell anyone was here. Landscape was left just the way it was before they started. Finally Landon did the final walk thru and I am totaly happy. Thank you Landon and Sarah for the great job.
