Affordable Electric

Absolute worst electrician ever. Gave me an estimate for $2600 to bring some wiring up to code and install outlets in kitchen. First thing he did was turn off all the electricity in the house right before the biggest winter storm in the past 20 years. So the water pipes broke. Call him to turn the electricity back on, he refuses until the kitchen layout is finished. Then call him again once the layout is finished, shows up a day late complaining his apprentice won’t get out of bed. Works for about 2 hours and then leaves (again all the electricity is turned off), and has his secretary call and say there was a bootleg circuit in the basement so he stopped all work. Tell him we are going with a different electrician and then he says there is 0 balance due. So, I paid $1300, not a single outlet was installed, he spent all of about 4 hours at the house and busted the water pipes. Then I called a reputable company who turned my electricity back on and had the heat back by the end of the day.

I hired them to install eight (8) recessed lights in my living room, on May 7th, 2012. The work began fine and slowly deteriorated into a mess that left a poor impression of their professionalism, quality of work, and hired professionals. To name a few of the issues: (1) The technician drilled through the second story solid hardwood floors, from the 1st floor. (2) The recessed lights have smudging around each light were the drill bit eroded the ceiling finish. (3) Access holes were cut into the plaster walls and were not repaired. (4) It took me insisting four times that the living room area be cleaned. The floors, walls, furniture, and children toys were covered in ceiling debris and wood shavings from the drilling and cutting into the ceiling. (5) I lent the technician a pair of pliers. The pliers disappeared after the job completed. (6) The wireless doorbell was removed to allow access to the work area. The doorbell currently sits on the counter in multiple pieces. (7) I have an unsightly wire molding running down my living room wall. They quoted me labor that included behind-the-wall installation. Instead, they installed molding down my living room wall which I did not want. All of the above items were not repaired and the company just left the job site. Please be careful in choosing this contractor.
