Derek Rock

Derek is the best. He returned my phone call immediately and was able to come over the next day to install two fixtures for me. I live in a very old building, and the wiring for each fixture is different and is not in great condition. But Derek was able to find solutions for both of the fixtures I wanted to install (and fast)! Can’t recommend him highly enough!

I called Derek at about 10pm on Christmas Eve and he was kind enough to give me a call back and offer his services the next day on Christmas. If I could give 10 stars for such service I would.
My problem was more or less fixed for now without needing Derek but if I ever need an electrician or give someone a recommendation you better believe Derek will be top of mind.
Thanks so much Derek! Much appreciated.

Derek showed up, took care of business and was in and out of my house. Friendly, knowledgable and professionally fast. (His rates are very reasonable too!) Can’t recommend him enough.

Derek was super prompt in returning my phone call and came over the same day to install a new flush mount fixture in my baby’s nursery! He had it done in no time and everything worked great! He was super personable too!

Derek installed recess lighting in our main living area, a wine bottle chandelier with a tricky mounting set up, and a bedroom ceiling fan/​light. He was efficient, thorough, and very reasonably priced. He is very handy, as well, which helped tremendously in mounting the chandelier. We had a painter working concurrently, and Derek was very flexible with his schedule. I highly recommend Derek.

Derek did an amazing job. Showed up the same day I called, easily identified the issue with our lights, fixed the main issue AND prevented a further issue that could happen down the road, charged a very reasonable rate & was done within an hour. On top of that, he’s super friendly & was great with my 1 y/​o twins (who probably would have gone home with him if I would have let them.) I will definitely call again if any electrical needs arise.

Derek’s great, very fair prices for a couple of recent jobs we had done, very professional work and a super nice guy!

Derek has helped us with a few electrical projects these last several months. He has installed a few lighting fixtures for us. Derek is very accessible, responds to text messages right away, is super flexible and is fair in what he charges. I would certainly recommend his services to friends and family.

Derek did a great job. .. and it was a small job (fix a bathroom light). We worked out a convenient time (as it was a small job, I’m always understanding and willing to work around their schedule) and he came over. .. fixed it in 15 minutes and charged me a very reasonable fee (considering he had to stop at a store and buy a part beforehand). I will definitely use him again and will recommend him to friends.

When we moved into our new house, there ALOT of electrical concerns, from «minor» safety issues to outlets that didn’t work. He fixed it all. He was dealt directly with an outdated breaker company to see if there was a cheaper solution to making the circuit safe. We needed to install a switch in our walk-​in closet to turn on the light and he suggested a motion sensor so we never accidentally leave that light on. I love it!

I found Derek through Unilocal and was very happy with both the work he did and the price. He managed to hang a new light in the kitchen without creating a bunch more holes in the ceiling. Then he routed power through the wall and behind a fireplace to power a new wall-​mounted T.V. He was careful to preserve the sheet rock that he had to remove so that repairing the wall was pretty easy. It could have been a whole lot worse if he hadn’t been meticulous. So, highly recommended. Provided a quote up front and he stuck to his price. No surprises, except for the excellent work.

Derek came to me via my contractor, Eastwood Development, during the renovation of my Victorian. He was hired to complete a lot of the electrical finish work. To say the least, having a Victorian’s electrical upgraded is an exciting event. I’m happy to report that the excitement all revolved around everything working well and looking good! This project included running conduit into the attic redistributing the power from there to the rest of the house. RG6 for cable/​internet/​voip was also installed throughout the home. I’m on the geek-​side of life, so I really appreciated Derek’s extensive knowledge of electrical systems. Running wire is one thing, but knowing your electrician knows the principles behind what he’s doing is really satisfying to me. Post-​renovation, Derek has been great in making himself available to me for a bunch of small things that I missed during the initial process, e.g. running CAT6 into my bedroom and living room the new generation of media servers. Derek also made himself available to install outdoor lighting, including some advice on a self-​starter project :-) Very pleasant to deal with, timely and reliable, and a true classical music fan!
