3 weeks agoWhat a disaster! I called Reinhart based upon a recommendation from the realtor when I moved in. The job was to install two new plugs in a closet (about a 1 hour job) and to replace a bathroom fan. The fan should have taken about 1/2 hour to remove, 1/2 hour to cut the new template, and 1/2 hour to install the new fan. As it turns out, the fan I had required an adapter to fit the existing duct, so add another 1/2 hour to go 1 mile to the local hardware store. Total of about 3 hours. But, Nooooo, they are too smart to use a template and so they just cut the ceiling, then cut some more, then cut some more. All to try to make the fan unit fit into the ever increasing hole in the ceiling. Of course, if they would have actually read the instructions, it tells you that the fan unit has to be taken apart in order to install it. Gee, once we took it apart, whaddya know, the installation only took about 30 minutes. Go figure. They also had two workers there, and are very happy to charge for it, even though only one is actually doing anything at a given time. Now I can tell you, they are going to say they read the instructions...baloney. I read the instructions and told them what to do. They're also going to blame the unit for not fitting. Well, yeah, it doesn't fit if you don' follow the instructions. Then it magically fits once SOMEONE reads the instructions! And they will blame me for buying a fan that has a different duct size. I allowed time for buying an adapter. Oh, interestingly, Dave told me that sealing the duct with regular duct tape is not durable (only lasts a couple of years), yet the next day found that he didn't have any of the silver duct tape, so just used regular duct tape. The drywall guy they referred me to did a great job. Of course, he first had to cut the hole in the ceiling even larger, since Reinhart had not only failed to use the template, but also failed to cut the hole square. Of course, the drywall guy probably gets a lot of practice repairing holes after Reinhart is done...Reinhart is quick to recommend him (and probably has him on his speed dial). This is the only time I've ever had to get a drywall guy in after an electrician was done. What a fiasco! -

5 months agoReinhardt Electrical provides the best services, small and large. Nothing major about the service they have provided, but would trust them with major services. They are excellent electricians, knowledgeable & friendly. The number one bonus is, the business is family owned and local. Ardath -

5 months agoI just got off the phone with Dave at Reinhart Electric. I contacted other places and this was the only place where I got an honest answer about what are problem most likely is and how to fix it. And the cost to fix it was less than other places just to "diagnose" it. What Dave told me fits with the situation and also common sense. It is refreshing to find a vendor that is transparently honest. That is worth more than gold. -
