Dead Rock Contractor Services, LLC

Chris and Mike were fantastic. They installed a light pole in my front yard and did an excellent job. I also had a ceiling fan installed, a split switch for a light in the bathroom and changed the door handle for the door from the garage. The work was excellent and the pricing very reasonable. I highly recommend them and will be using them for a multitude of upcoming projects.

Quick,reliable service.Very good communication throughout project. Will call them again for future work.

This review is a long time in coming. I had been searching for an affordable electrician to replace a breaker panel that was on its last legs. I called an electrician from a highly rated company to diagnose and perform some emergency repairs. Seems our panel was on borrowed time. Several breakers were burned, cracked and yet another was buzzing in an unpleasant manner. The offending breakers were replaced and the verdict was that the main bus bars were just not providing good electrical contact. I needed a replacement panel. I got an estimate from another person in that company. A lot of discussion took place between the estimator and his company. Photos of the location and service were taken and e-mailed. I was floored by the magnitude of the estimate and the associated re-work that needed to be done to replace the panel and bring it up to code. Everything from an outside service meter mounted above the deck to the water pipes that passed the panel were all offending and needed to be relocated. We were assured that no inspector would sign off on a replacement panel without these accompanying modifications to the house. We followed with a few more word of mouth recommendations and finally reached an impasse when we found someone who would do it on the cheap if we purchased all the supplies. He was honest enough to admit that he was not a licensed electrician. I had used HomeAdvisor in the past and felt it was time to stop Yelping and get someone in who had been screened - qualified, licensed, insured, etc. HomeAdvisor gave us 3 leads. Chris Livingstone (we later connected that sense of humor with the Dead Rock Contracting name) and his helper, Mike quickly responded to our job description request. From the start, Chris listened to our description of the failure mode, what work had been done already, and our concerns about wanting to have this job done with the appropriate permits and final inspection. He was knowledgeable and had a background that enabled him to make informed decisions on what was required and what was fine if the job was a swap out panel replacement. He thoroughly checked our electric service meter, panel, and water lines. He gave us an estimate with our choice of two top name brand panels. When he said the whole house surge suppressor was included, not an option, I was completely surprised. That suppressor was a $350 option on our first quote. We asked for the panel brand, suppressor and building permit and inspection to be included on the contract. He seemed a tad amused and put it in writing. We were really impressed. So, we started with our wish list. We wanted to replace our dead front post lamp. No problem, do you want to save some labor cost and dig the 18" trench ourselves (yes, and he would run the wires inside of conduit). We have a dead roof mounted ventilator. Can you replace that too? "Sure, do you want to pick out your own fan or should I?" Wow, flat rate install prices as options. We loved it. A week lat

We had a leak around our bathroom ventilation fan. Homeadvisor sent info for 2 vendors that could have done the job. We chose Dead Rock because Chris was prompt and courteous from their first contact to after finishing the job. Chris Livingston came out to see the job and sent the estimate right away. They came on time on the day of the job, fixed the problem, cleaned up after the job was done, and even included couple of minor repairs for free that were not part of the actual job. So nice! Very happy with the service.

Very professional courteous and affordable

Contact was fast, price was reasonable. Work was started and finished in a timely manner. Chris and the crew were on time, courteous, neat and efficient. Additional needed work was reasonably priced and prompt. Communication was excellent. I would highly recommend Dead Rock Contractor Services.

I've been hiring him for over 20 years and can say that he is wonderful to work with. Not only is he a nice guy, he is a go-to kind of guy: he is a problem solver at whatever task you need performed. He is also a motivational speaker who does seminars around the nation. He is one of the good guys.
