Kitchen reno - new and upgraded outlets and lights
Vittuci Electric was contracted to update the lighting and electrical outlets as part of our recent kitchen reno. Normally I look for contractors through Homestars, however Rocco and team were recommended by the contractor re-doing our kitchen floor (JBG Tiling – a Homestars pick). What a pleasant surprise.
As part of our renovation, we had opted for pot lights and a couple of pendant lights for overhead lighting, undermount cabinet puck lights for counter lighting and in-cabinet puck lights for the coffee bar cabinets. Existing outlets were used, as well as new outlets for 20-amp service and new circuits for our over-the-range microwave and beverage fridge.
Since we weren’t using an all-in-one kitchen reno company, I had to coordinate the activities of each trade as well as figure out who does what and when. Rocco was great to deal with in terms of his communication and in sharing his experience with other renovations. I removed an existing bulkhead in the kitchen in preparation for the new cabinets and took on the responsibility of repositioning some existing builder wiring and Rocco was helpful in ensuring my work would pass inspection. Both Lukas and Rocco were involved in our reno, and both are very professional, courteous and easy to work with.
While a die-hard DIYer, this was a bit too much for me and, as it was, even a couple of existing circuits wouldn’t have met today’s electrical code. With the professional work from Vittuci, all work has been ESA certified.
I would definitely use Vittuci Electric again.
