Reviews
Write a ReviewI will hire Mike again in the future if ever needed. He responded quickly and fixed my bad breaker with no problems. Quality work, friendly service and competitive price.
Although this electrician seemed knowledgeable, he reviewed the concerns we had with our electrical wiring and said he knew the problem, and it was different than the other quotes. He said when he was done our flickering lights and other issues would be resolved. It was expensive, but I was paying him for his knowledge and expertise so I was ok with the cost if it would resolve the issue and he was quite confident- after almost $1500, we still have the same problem. After the he did the work that he said was what we needed and would fix the problem- he started saying what the other electrician told us we needed- not happy for $120 an hour you should know what your doing. Now we are back to square one and have to save a couple more thousand dollars to get our electrical work complete. Not satisfied. The actual work he did was good- although we could have done it ourselves and wasn't worth the expense. We felt ripped off and have gotten no real solution concerning the electrical.
I did guarantee you that the issue was resolved, and I do stand behind that. I'm not sure why you did not call me as soon as you noticed the problem recurring or felt unsatisfied with our service. When we left your home the problem was resolved. There was no longer 137 volts on one phase and the lights were no longer flickering. We corrected many unsafe conditions in your home, from the attic to the crawlspace. There's still a lot left to do. I'm as frustrated as you are that the problem returned. I pride myself on my reputation, and I'd rather continue to investigate the problem for free than risk your dissatisfaction. Mike
Took the time to explain what he was doing and why. Also checked an exterior connection that was a problem and fixed it at no additional cost. Somebody I can trust.
Mike did a great job. His work is great and is very good able returning calls and answering questions. We have had him out several times for projects and I would highly recommend him.
All Chicago area service people are grossly overpriced. While this tech was great he charged $120/hr for a total of $360 to replace a faulty wire.
Please understand that the cost of contractor's insurance, worker's compensation insurance, etc. are all included in our labor rates.Materials are also included in the final cost of your repair. Yours was an interesting problem. We actually found the issue with the first floor wiring in about an hour, located in a conduit under the basement slab. That's good troubleshooting. A lesser electrician may have removed every outlet, light fixture and switch in the house before finding the problem. This could have taken many hours. We also replaced another burned wire in the same conduit while we were at it. Thank you for your comment!
The Electrician took the time to explain each step of the process so there were no surprises, excellent experience!
Mike did a great job on installing cam lighting in our kitchen. Wife is very pleased. Will hire again for any electrical work I feel I can not do myself.
Mike and Kyle were very courteous, did what I asked, they cleaned up after themselves. It was a very positive visit.
Repaired a bad outlet
Very happy with their work.
