    Scott installed a gas line and shut off valve for our new dryer. He was personable, amazingly knowledgeable and efficient. His rate was very reasonable. I would highly recommend him.

    Was recommend by NE Appliance in Braintree after I purchased a dishwasher from them. Scott secured the dishwasher drain hose with electrical tape and too loose of a hose clamp to the tailpiece of the drain line under my sink, causing it to slip off and fail about 6 weeks after install, and causing significant water damage to the unit's ceiling below. He took zero accountability for all of this and said "it is what it is" during my phone call with him. Said he only warranties his work for 30 days. Absolutely would not recommend working with him.

    Sawed through my hardwood floors and butchered the bottom of my cabinetry and chipped my countertops when installing an oven. Was the recommended delivery and installer from NE appliance in Braintree.

    Scott installed a dishwasher that I bought through Lowes. He was quick, neat, and courteous as well as made sure we had no questions about maintenance or usage. He had to deal with the Braintree Building inspector being a jerk and was polite with us throughout.

    Install Dryer

    Scott was super helpful in installing a new dryer I bought through Lowe's. Lowe's botched the delivery process but Scott was willing to go to the store and pick up the necessary gas lines and then come over to my place to hook up the dryer. He was very helpful over the phone - coordinating with Lowe's himself, and saved us a lot of time by picking up the parts himself when Lowe's should've delivered them but failed to do so.

    He installed our dryer quickly, cleanly, and professionally - and gave us some tips on vent line maintenance. He arrived right when he said he would too. Very much appreciate his work and assistance in getting this done.

    $500

    I ordered a dishwasher from Lowe's and Scott was the contractor sent by Lowe's to do the installation. He was professional, neat and clean and did a great job. The reason I am rating him so poorly is while he was here I asked him if he would be interested in a couple of jobs I needed done and he said yes and gave me some ideas with his business card. I have called him 6 times in the last 4 weeks and he has not returned one of my calls. The last message I left I asked him for the courtesy of a return phone call if he was not interested in the work and still no return phone call.

    kitchen faucet

    Excellent service! We had Scott out for a kitchen faucet replacement, he was on time as promised, worked clean, was pleasant and did a great install on our older plumbing. Highly recommend!

    Electrical work
    $880

    One of the worst customer services I’ve ever had the misfortune to experience. The guys that came to do the job were knowledgable & polite.
    When I had a few questions about the dimmers (that weren’t installed), the owner called and screamed at me. He bashed my builder and yelled at me for questioning him. He did this again after I called about the bill.
    Prior to arriving, we were given an estimate of approx 4hrs to do 2 chandeliers, a ceiling and 12 dimmers. Our bill was for 5.5 hrs and only 2 dimmers and one chandelier were installed! $880.
    Peter called me a liar when I asked if I paid for the guys lunch break they took. His response “Oh, your looking for a deal! I’ll give you one...30 min credit!” Needless to say, $880 (5.5hrs) is a lot for 1 chandelier and 2 dimmers. Never again.

    General

    First of all everyone should know that Casello handyman-electric only takes big jobs and from my experience Peter Casello does not have the time to quote customers. As Peter said. He's too busy. I ended up paying him a good amount of money because I needed someone to do some work on my commercial bldg. when I needed a door ordered and installed which he promised - 2 months wasted he said I had to find someone not as busy as he. Very Bad Business practice!!! I wouldn't recommend someone like this !

    I use him for all my electrical needs, and have referred him on many ocassions. Very fair, knowledgeable(sp) and high quality of workmanship. Takes pride in his work, and knows what he is doing. I actually met him through my landlord, he was doing work in a rental we were renting. My landlord is another story all in itself.... If not for my landlord I would not have met Hugh, so I am greatful for that. Definatley give him a call.
