  It was a pleasant experience. They arrived on time, were very pleasant, they worked quickly and efficiently and most important, the clean up was perfect. It was a messy process going into popcorn ceiling. A plus company and process.

  Johnny was my contact person. After emailing and delays on my part we set up the job to be done on 03-04-2019 after five months getting to that point. The workers were Adam (the foreman) and JC his helper in training. They called ahead of time around 9:50am and said they would be at my house in 30 minutes. They arrived at 10:58am. They did a good job replacing 8 fluorescent bulbs and changing from what I had to a more eco friendly bulb that lasted longer, and replacing 7 ballasts and replacing 2 vent fan motors in both bathrooms. I supplied the fan motors and they just charged the labor to install them as well as the labor for the bulbs and ballasts. They finished the job by 2:15pm and said I would be billed. The trainee did one ballasts by himself, and had problems and was taking longer than the foreman did the others, and I joking said "I'm getting the trainee rate aren't I"? Adam said he would make it right with the bill. The bill arrived on 03-15-2019 for a total of $605.00 and a simple description of: Service call to repair kitchen & bath lights and change out bath fan motors. Labor and materials included. Adam & JC. I emailed Johnny in that I wasn't questioning the bill, but wanted it itemized for the price of labor, bulbs, ballasts. After 3 tries to get my answers over 10 days, the email address kept coming back to me with "Fatal Errors", and so I called Johnny on 03-25-2019. He answered the phone and apologized in that they had changed from a .net to a gmail.com account and said he would call me in and hour from his office to get me what I needed. And hour later he did call and said the 8 bulbs were #10.00 a piece, the 5 ballasts were $20.00 a piece, and the balance was labor for 3.5 hours. I told him I thought it was 7 ballasts, and he said he thought the writing of his foreman was a 5, but to not worry about the extra $40.00. I then paid my bill with him over the phone by charging the $605.00 to my credit card of which he emailed me confirmation. When we started the process of setting up the appointment he confirmed in an email on 09-28-2018 that the labor cost would be $100.00 per hour for two men. I've pasted that email but inserted names instead of email addresses as Angie's List does not like email addresses in the summary. ( From: Johnny To: Steve: Sent: 9/28/2018 3:05:54 PM Eastern Standard Time Subject: Re: Electrical Service. Yes, that is correct. 2 Men $100 hr) in a reply from Steve to Johnny (On Fri, Sep 28, 2018 at 12:22 PM Steve wrote: Hey Johnny ,I got your message on my phone answering machine. You said $100.00 per hour for two men. Is that as you say, or is it $100.00 per hour for both men meaning the expense would be $200.00 per hour to me, or just $100.00 for the first hour of the job? Steve) I then emailed Johnny back thanking him for the credit card email confirmation and said I assumed the 3.5 hours of labor would be $350.00 meaning a difference in $75.00 in labor. Because I had already paid the bill and didn't have any leverage I decided not to do another follow up reply and just chalk it up to experience. Maybe the labor price had gone up at the beginning of the new year. The foreman didn't really make it right in my view to the trainee issue. We all know of the markups on materials businesses do. The ballast price seemed fair, but the bulb price of $10.00 was excessive. I priced the bulbs afterwards at Wal-Mart, Home Depot, and Lowe's and they were $2.50 - $3.00 each. I've stated above that I would not rehire and had I voiced my opinion before paying the bill, Johnny may have accepted the labor rate he quoted me in 2018, so in the future I may use them again as this was the 3rd since 2010 I used their services, but will re-check out other competitors on Angie's list as well.

  I don't have him come to the house because my husband and him have problems. I refer him to everybody else. They have a normal charge but if they went to your grandma's house her charge would be $50 where yours might be $78. That's the kind of people they are. I turned them on to someone who needed electrical and they were right there johnny on the spot. They're awesome.

  Update 6/20/24: Hired Eric for some other projects of mine. Paid every invoice he gave me. He decided to abandon me half way through the latest project. Tried communicating with him multiple times, no answer right in the middle of the project. Go with Eric if you want someone that doesn't stand behind their word and leaves you high and dry. Eric did a fine job installing my water heater, and other electrical jobs I required. Would highly recommend!
