I'm late in posting this review. Seeing the other reviews, they are also reflective of my family's experience, however, Maury not only did a great, quick turnaround job for us, he also did a tremendous act of human kindness for us. My sister was on hospice. The electricity blew in the room where she was staying at 3:00 on an afternoon. This meant no oxygen, no breathing treatments, or fan - so we started calling around to see if anyone could help us right away. A couple of electricians told us they could be there a week from then...Maury said he could be there by 5:00. He pulled up shortly after 4:00 and I took him in and showed him the problem (an outlet with old wiring had sparked, melting the bakelite and almost causing a fire), then we walked to the fuse box, where he saw the old and crazy wiring. He understood that we just needed a quick fix - even though what really needed to happen to prevent future issues was lots of re-wiring and repair. But as my mom told Maury, We just need the house to last longer than she (my sister) does. Maury fixed the problem for us so that her oxygen could be turned back on. My mom was going to pay him and asked him how much - fully prepared to pay upwards of $500 for what he did, especially at such short notice late in the afternoon. But it was well under $200. His work was great...but his compassion and human-ness really set Maury in a class of his own. My sister did pass away about a week later, but we will always be grateful to Maury for his great kindness. If only there were more people like him in the world.
