    Mike & his team were wonderful to work with. They were knowledgeable, timely, and professional every step of the way.

    I've used Vandergeest Electrical on a number of occasions, including a total re-wiring of my house. Mike and his team were professional and knowledgable, but what set them apart was that they were on time and communicated throughout the process so I always knew what was going on.

    When dealing with contractors in the past it’s always been hit or miss but Mike and his people are the best. No BS and amazing work. Price was phenomenal as well! Can’t say enough good things.

    Mike and his team were very responsive and did a great job. It was very easy to do business with them.

    Our old house rewiring project turned out to be much more complicated than we thought. The team handled the challenges with a can-do attitude and left us with a newly wired house which we are very pleased with.

    This is a thoroughly professional operation. Mike is a creative problem solver and works very efficiently. I bought a condo with lots of electrical issues and he solved them and made it look easy. He and his crew are a pleasure to work with.

    Mike is an effective and efficient problem-solving electrician. Our home has had electrical issues (doorbell malfunction, problematic recessed lights) that previous electricians did not solve. In his deliberate and attentive manner, Mike easily proposed solutions and readily remedied the problems after thorough communication. Most recently, Mike and his team installed light fixtures with facility and professional post-installation cleaning. I highly regard Mike and will continue to use him in the future.

    Mike and his crew rewired my 96 year-old home, replacing all of the old knob and tube wiring. They installed whole-house surge protection and integrated smoke detectors. Mike clearly explained the process and timeline in advance, and they stuck to it. The job proceeded exactly as I expected. The guys arrived at the same time everyday, worked hard and well, and were always respectful and delightful to be around. They cleaned up every day. Mike, the master electrician, was on site for most of the day, every day. I could not have been more impressed and pleased with their work. I choose Mike Vandergeest after receiving a total of 5 bids for this work (including a couple of low-ball estimates by folks who clearly didn't know what they were doing). Mike was clearly the most knowledgeable and skilled. I will certainly hire Mike and his crew again and strongly recommend them.

    Mike and his team were professional and did a great job replacing my old electrical panel and service line. They were prompt and pricing was fair. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable electrician.

    Services: security system rewiring, ceiling fan installs in 120 year old home, new lighting, remediation of sub-standard work by another contractor, misc corrective work across four levels of home

    Highlights: Communications and coordination, crew technical skills and problem solving, high performing team, results focus vs task focus, commitment to quality

    Mike and his team operate like a high performing Formula 1 pit crew. The combination of technical know-how, on-the-spot problem solving, customer communications, outcomes, and genuine caring for the 'home environment' is just beyond what I have seen in other trade contractors. Mike and team rescued us from a rather nasty and unsettling experience with a sub-par contractor who abandoned the job. He immediately stepped in w/ a full crew. He then remediated the bad work, did the new work, and sorted a whole set of complex challenges from security system hard wiring in an attic space to tricky placement of ceiling fans in 120-year old structure. I honestly believe you could present Mike and team with the most unusual and compex set of tasks, and they would achieve results that are above and beyond. Finally, Mike and his guys think beyond the task to outcomes and performance. For example: 1) rewiring cameras but also gettting coverage zones spot on, 2) getting the work done but also planning and staging for least disruption, 3) replastering areas that had to be cut. Absolute Pros!

    We hired Mike and his team for a knob and tube conversion. The house was built in the late 1800's so you can imagine the complexity involved. Each day the crew showed up promptly and made significant progress - so much so that it took half the time we had estimated. Permits were in order and everything was approved with no issues.

    They sent us texts or calls if there was any questions throughout the day. We couldn't ask for more really - they responded quickly and professionally and tidied up the place incredibly well afterwards. When we had an issue with the AC they called in a repair person for us and kept things right on track. Highly recommend!

    Mike and his team our great. They rewired our entire house which had knob & tube. They were professional and easy to work with. They are my electricians moving forward.

    Mike and his team replaced the knob and tube wiring in our 100 year old house. It was a big job that required opening holes in the walls and ceilings to properly rewire the circuits. Mike's team did a great job installing the new wire while being extremely respectful to our home. They arrived on time and gave frequent updates about the status of the work. We couldn't be happier with how the project turned out!

    Mike and his team are fantastic to work with. It is clear they take pride in the service and quality of worked provided on each and every job. In the service business, trust is extremely important. Whether it is a job at my own house, or a referral to one of my clients, I always have trust in hiring this team and have received nothing but positive feedback.

    My experience with Mike Vandergeest and his team was nothing short of terrific. I would highly recommend him to my friends and family for electrical projects. He did a full electric rewiring of my home. He removed knob and tube wiring and replaced with all new wiring, upgraded the service panel to 200 amps, and installed many lights, baseboard heaters, bathroom fans, porch lights, etc.

    Knowledgeable - you spend 10 minutes with him and you realize he knows the ins and outs of all things electric and also generally all things house related. It really gave me confidence in his vision for the final project.

    Cost - we received several quotes. He was very competitive with his pricing. And when you price in the quality of the work, I think the value is second to none. He was also very upfront and transparent. No hidden charges. He explained why certain items cost what they did.

    Professionalism - he was punctual for all meetings and phone calls. Prompt with all text replies.

    Speed - Once the project was underway, they really moved at a fast. My house needed quite a bit of work and they finished in two weeks.

    Lastly, he was happy to discuss ideas for various non-electric related items during our several house walk-throughs even though it was of no real benefit to him, which speaks to his easy going nature. I’m not a frequent “review” poster (if ever), but Mike and crew earned it.

    Mike and his team did a phenomenal job with a 200 amp panel upgrade last week They were extremely efficient in getting the job done like they've done this many times previously. Swapping out the panel, new breakers, relocating the meter and replacing the outside main cable all complete within a few hours.
    I sleep good at night knowing it's all up to code. These guys are both efficient and highly professional. Would definitely reach out again for future home projects. Highly recommended!!

    We are so happy to work with Mike and his team. I would highly recommend them! We had them work on our home. Mike came over and we talked about everything we wanted, and they delivered. Mike and his team are very responsive, professional, and skilled at their craft. We will continue to work with them for all of our needs.

    So happy we hired Mike and his team. We upgraded the electrical service to our 1940 house, added recessed lighting throughout, and made other improvements to ensure it was a comfortable and safe place for our family. It all turned out wonderfully and ahead of schedule.

    I would highly recommend Mike to family and friends for three reasons: 1. The quality of work is fantastic. 2. Mike is incredibly responsive (email, text, or phone) and a great communicator. I am very detail-oriented when it comes to lighting; Mike listened to my specific goals, translated them to his team, and always made me feel like he shared my goals without even the slightest hint that anything was too much to ask. 3. The planning process and cost structure were more straightforward than was the case with any other contractor we hired or received bids from. In the whirlwind of a home purchase and fast-moving renovation, this clarity was extremely helpful.

    Really glad we were introduced to Mike and will turn to him for any future needs.

    **Review for Vandergeest Electrical**

    I recently had the pleasure of working with Vandergeest Electrical, and I can't recommend them highly enough! From the moment we reached out, Mike was incredibly professional and attentive to our needs. As first-time homeowners, we had a lot of questions and concerns, but Mike took the time to address each one thoroughly, ensuring that our new home was set up for success.

    What truly impressed me was how his crew mirrored his professionalism. They were punctual, respectful, and worked efficiently while maintaining a clean workspace. At the end of the project, they left our house looking even better than it did before they started. It's clear that they take pride in their work and care about the satisfaction of their clients.

    Overall, Vandergeest Electrical exceeded our expectations, and I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of electrical services. Thank you, Mike and team, for making our home a safe and welcoming place!
