They were fabulous, they did the best work, and now we have these beautiful recessed lights thanks to them.

The technician was courteous, prompt and knowledgeable and performed all the work in a timely manner. Part of the service call was to conduct a free house electrical inspection, and he found several items that needed repairing or replacing. He subsequently completed the additional work and we could not be happier with the results. <br />
Response from Beacon Home Services, Inc.
"Thank you for your review. At Beacon Electrical Services your safety is our concern. We perform a whole home safety inspection, for just that reason. We are glad you found our company to be everything we strive to be. Thanks again."

The job included the installation of a 10 circuit sub-panel for a 7,500 watt portable generator. Beacon was one 6 different companies that I received an estimate from, and provided the lowest price. I am not a "lowest bidder" fan by nature, but their estimator was by far the most knowledgable and credible of all. The day of the job, Victor (who I highly recommend) came to my house on time and proceeded to work. I am by nature curious about anything technical and asked a number of questions about the physics of the home electrical system. Victor was more than happy to oblige my questions while performing his task. He also noted a wiring deficiency due to a code change that went into effect after my house was built, which he corrected at no charge. Although I do a lot of home wiring myself (I know my limitations), I will be going back to Beacon for any electrical needs that I don't want to tackle. Very happy with this company. <br />
Response from Beacon Home Services, Inc.
"Thanks for the great review. Victor is a wonderful employee and electrician, knowledgeable and passionate about his field. He is always doing the best he can for our customers. Beacon Electrical Services assures that our techs know and understand all the latest codes for electrical work, that way we ensure a smooth process with the inspectors. And if you need our services in future, Victor will be happy to come out and get the job done! Thanks again."

beacon installer came on time& we were without power for less than 4 hours as he promised. he placed two ground rods& placed flags at the spots where the rods were placed. he gave us the installation permit & the inspection visit by fairfax county went smoothly. we would recommend beacon for electrical work& plan to have them replace our house outlets& switches. <br />
Response from Beacon Home Services, Inc.
"Thanks for the great review! Glad to see our experience shined throughout your project. When you are ready, we'd be glad to come out and replace those outlets for you. Give us call anytime! Thanks again!"

the workers seemed efficient and worked fast <br />
Response from Beacon Home Services, Inc.
"We never like to see a review like this. Beacon Electrical Services strives to do the best we can on each and every job we encounter. It is upsetting that you would choose to not use our services again and it would be nice if that could change. Unfortunately, in this business, we do rely on others to help us get to the completion of a job. It really is a team effort from all ends, starting with us, to the county inspector, all the way to Pepco. Getting all of these people on the same page, usually works out just fine. On occasion,we may hit a bump in the road. We do apologize if your experience as a whole was not up to your expectations, but hope you will judge Beacon Electrical Services on our performance alone. You had some nice comments regarding out techs and we appreciate that. We wish you the best of luck in your future projects, and if Beacon Electrical Services can help you any way, just give us a call."

The team of two electricians did a great job on taking out and replacing the old circuit breaker box with the new one. There was a more senior electrician and an apprentice. However, after installing a line to the rear of the house and putting in floodlights for the backyard -- about two days later they stopped working. We called them back and they came a week later to fix it - after I had to test the line to see if voltage was going through and buying a new set of lights - and they claimed they had fixed again. The problem had been they ran the line to a switch light in our kitchen - we had asked them to run a dedicated line for the motion sensor/floodlights. Again, after about a day, these lights stopped working again. We contacted the company a third time, and after apologizing and promising to send someone else out - we didn't hear from them for a few days. At this point I contacted the head of the company and asked to have the master electrician come and fix the problem permanently or we would never do business with them again. They finally sent a new electrician out (with the apprentice) and figured out again they ran a line to another switch in the house. They finally fixed the problem after the third attempt, and were very apologetic - and didn't charge anything. It seemed like an honest mistake, however, the senior electrician should have caught this problem on the first try, I don't blame the apprentice necessarily. Overall, I'm not sure I will use them again. <br />
Response from Beacon Home Services, Inc.
"Thank you for your review. Although it is nice to hear all the postive experiences people have had with Beacon Electrical Services, sometimes, this happens. We are in total agreement with you, that someone should have caught this before leaving your home. It is unacceptable for this happen at all, much less twice!! We do appreciate your patience and understanding with the whole situation. And we sincerely hope that you would choose to give us a another chance if the need should arise. We work very hard to avoid these issues, and mostly we do, but occassionaly, we mess up. Our sincerest apologies for any inconvenience we may have caused."

It went very well. Both technicians could work independently and finished the work quickly. They cleaned up the work area, were very professional, and were both very competent. <br />
Response from Beacon Home Services, Inc.
"(member name removed) Thanks so much for your review. It is always nice to hear the wonderful comments our customers have to say about the Beacon Electrical Services Team!!"

They worked quickly and professionally and cleaned up thoroughly. The fixtures all look great. Steven Moore, the electrician who did the second installation in the kitchen, was particularly conscientious about making sure the fixture was hanging how we wanted. <br /> It would be handy if the company also could do drywall repair for this type of job, but we had to do that separately. <br /> <br /> <br />
Response from Beacon Home Services, Inc.
"(member name removed) Thanks for the review! Stephen definately likes to get things right the first time around! Glad everything worked out for you and you are happy with the services provided. We understand your feelings regarding the drywall, it does seem like a pain. Unfortunately, as we are electricians, not drywall specialist, we would not be the right contractor for drywall repair. Sorry if this caused any inconvenience for you. Thanks again for your review, we appreciate it!"

The only thing we did not like was that we bought the Angies list deal and when the man first came out to do the job he said that it would cost more money because we had a two story house. We also had to chose between two different options for price. So instead of the deal of about $ 300 we had to spend $600. Again they were very professional but I did not like the deception in the price. However, I will say that happens with a lot of deals that don't have enough in the fine print and not just with this company. It is something that should be fixed in a lot of deal offers. <br />
Response from Beacon Home Services, Inc.
"(member name removed) Thank you for your review. We appreciate your comments on how to improve our "deals". We are currently working on how to better word some of our advertised deals. It is a difficult process as every job and every home are different. Thanks again for your review."

They agreed to come on a Saturday, to fit my schedule...the young man was very personable...told me he could repair my fan, so I was able to return the newly purchased one...gave me advice on a grounding concern....worked steadily <br />
Response from Beacon Home Services, Inc.
"[member name removed] Thanks for your review. We are happy we could repair your fan and you do not need the new one. That is good news! We always take into consideration our customers busy schedules, and try to be as flexible as possible. If you need help in the future with that grounding concern, give us a call"

The crew was punctual, professional, informative, and cleaned up after the job was complete. The crew was thorough in explaining how they would perform the job, how my walls and ceiling would be impacted, gave me well thought-out options, performed the job neatly and competently, and cleaned up after they were done. Would definitely recommend this company to others.

It went pretty well. They were polite, they did an ok job cleaning up.
Response from Beacon Home Services, Inc.
"Mrs. (Member name removed) Thanks for the review. We are always happy to recieve "good grades" from our customers. I wish the clean-up wasn't just ok, though. At Beacon Electrical Services we want to hear our clients use words like "outstanding", "fantastic", "the best". We will be sure to communicate this expectation to our techs immediately. Much appreciation for the review, and for the good marks."

Initial consultation was great, had to reschedule the service once but was relatively painless. The day of the install went smoothly, technician was very professional <br />
Response from Beacon Home Services, Inc.
"[member name removed] Thanks for your review. Glad to hear that our processes worked for you. Not sure about the details of the rescheduling, but if it was painless for you, great! Beacon Electrical Services has a difficult interview/hiring process. We want to ensure that our team is top notch! Thanks again!"

There was a mixup in scheduling. The following day the owner came to perform the install and provided an upgrade to the equipment and reduced the price. <br />
Response from Beacon Home Services, Inc.
"Member I do apologize for the scheduling mixup! That is certainly a rare occurance for us. I am glad Bob was able to come out and get all the work done for you. Thank you for understanding and I am glad we were able to compensate you for your time. Thanks for the review, we appreciate your comments."

Good experience. <br />
Response from Beacon Home Services, Inc.
"Member Thanks for the review. I hope you are enjoying your new recessed lights. And you are correct, Beacon Electrical Services does not repair drywall after our job is complete. Cutting the drywall is necessary for us to access your electrical wires, but as we are electricians, not drywall specialist, we are not skilled in that area of construction. We are happy to have Steven as part of our team. He is an experienced electrician, who really takes alot of pride in his work. We are glad you enjoyed your service from us, hope to work with you again in the future."

Heating system on second floor stopped working. I called and they were able to send a workman out same day which was huge since it was December 23rd, day before Christmas Eve! Workman arrived on time, with shoe protectors, nice! He got right to work. He was very honest and was able to repair our unit by simply cleaning it out. We were not charged any additional money other than the service call fee. Repairman made a few suggestions for our future maintenance, etc., which were not in a salesman type pitch but more like advice from someone who knows a lot in order to help us out. We were very pleased. <br />
Response from Beacon Home Services, Inc.
"[member name removed] Thanks for reviewing Beacon Electrical Services. We really enjoy hearing what our customer think about us! Glad to hear your problem was fixed so easily & quickly. Especially in the cold winter months when heat is needed most. Looking forward to working with you again in the future."
