Replacement of knob and tube, update electrical

We had Bill and his team remove/replace the knob and tube wiring in our home and generally update all the wiring. Bill provided a clear quote for the work prior to starting and was available for questions from day one. Bill and his team were extremely professional, honest and efficient. They explained what needed to be done and why. They provided updates on the progress of the work every evening and cleaned up after themselves daily. We were able to live in the house while the work was being completed.
Once the work was completed, our wiring was up to code (checked by the inspector, which was organized by Bill and his team) and our electrical panel was clearly labeled.
Even weeks after the work was completed, Bill was still responsive and helpful with any questions we had! We have and will continue recommending Bill and his team to our friends and family.

Home Rewiring & More

After getting quotes from a number of electrical contractors, I hired Bill and his team to perform a nearly full re-wiring of my home, replacing all of the existing knob and tube wiring and installing pot lights where desired. This was the right call. They worked quickly and professionally and got the job done without any problems. The best thing was that they did the re-wiring with only minimal intrusions into the ceilings and walls. These were small holes through which they did all of the work. Think laparoscopic surgery rather than a huge incision. This is why Bill’s cost for the project was about half of the quotes from the others, who couldn’t do the job without tearing things apart, requiring extensive rebuilding. I also used Bill later on a small job to install an electrical fireplace. Again, a job well done. To illustrate the integrity of Bill and his team, over a year later I encountered a situation where some electrical outlets stopped working in an area of the house that Bill didn’t work on because it had been previously renovated. His technician came by and quickly discovered a defective wire connection. He fixed the problem immediately and, even though it wasn’t part of his original responsibility, he didn’t charge me for the work. His interest was to ensure that his customer was satisfied. Mission accomplished.

Thank you for the nice compliments. We strive to keep our clients happy. My technician was happy to do the service call rather than go shopping.

Knob & Tube replacement

Bill and his crew did the job on time, on budget and without owner supervision (we were away). He was very fair, providing us a credit for work not needed, and made excellent suggestions to get us to code. Thanks to Bill, Tim and his team!

Knob and tube removal, pot light installation

Bill & Crew helped remove all of the old knob and tube wiring, install a new panel, and a bunch of pot lights in our old century house -- the estimate was very fair, the work was flawless and Bill is completely transparent, flexible, and trustworthy. We will definitely hire Bill again, and I strongly encourage you to do the same. You won't regret it!

Knob and Tube Replacement and Wire Update

KNT Electric did a wonderful job at re-wiring our home and removing the old knob and tube from our home. They arrived on time, finished the job on time, were clean, covered all our furniture, did what they said they would do and fixed all the holes they made. KNT is very professional and I recommend them to anyone looking a good electrician to service their home.

Knob & Tube Replacement

We chose Bill and his team to replace the original knob and tube wiring in our 100+ year old home based on the excellent reviews his company had on Homestars.
The quote given by KNT was accurate and transparent. Bill advised us every time an addition to the original quote was required and was completely understanding and helpful when change orders were requested. He was upfront and truthful when he told us that our lath and plaster walls could be saved. (This was after asking two other contractors if they would work with plaster, only to be told that they needed to be TORN OUT!)
KNT staff arrived on time (in fact they were early every day) they are friendly and are always willing to accommodate the homeowner's requests. They are respectful of personal property and take their time to clean up after each work day.
Bill and KNT truly restored our faith in contractors as we have had unpleasant experiences in the past with unscrupulous tradesmen.
KNT went above and beyond what they were asked to do and did an excellent job restoring and installing our antique light fixtures. Bill even included small things free of charge, including the installation of extra protection when it was found that our walls contained SAWDUST.
The staff at KNT electric are fast, efficient, professional and courteous. This is everything anyone would want in a contractor. We would not hesitate to recommend KNT Electric to anybody with a vintage home that needs knob and tube replacement. KNT will be our electricians of choice from now on. If you hire them, you will not be disappointed!

Knob and tube rewire

Bill and crew did a great job quickly and on budget for the complete knob and tube replacement in our home. They must use magic tricks to replace the wiring because there were an impossibly small number of very discreet holes (which they expertly patched up). They are entirely professional, respectful of people and property in the home and incredibly accommodating. I highly recommend them and would be happy to speak with anyone considering their services. I am comfortable saying that you will not go wrong hiring them.

Knob and Tube Replacement

Bill Tang and his team were extremely professional, accomodating and helpful. We had a tight timeline before we moved into our house, and found that there was a lot of old knob and tube wiring. They went above and beyond to make our house meet the electrical standards (including replacing all of the knob and tube), and even did a great job patching up all the holes they had to make in our walls - after a little paint we can't even tell where they were. They were extremely pleasant to work with and I would highly recommend their services.

repllacement of knob and tube wiring

Our home still had the old wiring although some had been replaced when there was an electrical fire about ten years ago. We have been living in this house since October of last year. It was a worry and were very pleased to have it all replaced now. KNT had replaced the old wiring in another home that we had and we were very pleased. That is why we called them back when we purchased our present home. The work was done quickly and professionally and the guys are great to deal with. Thank you very much

Knob and Tube Replacement

I found KNT (Bill Tang) on Homestars. He was the only electrician I called to replace some knob and tube and do some other updates in a newly purchased rental property. Bill did exactly what he said he would (actually he did a little more), exactly when he said he would do it, and at the exact price quoted. Bill provided excellent documentation as needed by my insurance company before and after the project. His crew was professional and very accomodating of the tenants' concerns. In fact, they came back late on a Friday night to solve a largely unrelated problem with a dryer. KNT is now my go to electrician.

Thank you for the nice compliments. Your tenants were very nice to us, but I guess you now that since they are so close to you. It was no problem to come by on Friday night, I was having dinner close by. I wish you all the best and good luck with your new property.
