I had a few plugs and a light fixture go out in my house. The house was built in 1944. It has 4 circuit breaker boxes. The only one he looked at (which was the newest one installed in 1969) he told me that 2 of them were not working and they don't make them anymore. So he would have to rewire the box and change out the box coming into the house. Total cost $10,000.00.
I had another company come in the next day and looked at a original fuse box in the house and found one 30amp fuse was blown. Total cost less than $100.00. Oh, and by the way, the other circuit breaker box that Mr. Sparky (Ben) told me they don't make anymore, you can find the breakers on aisle 6 at Lowes. Unbelievable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
