Electrical Wiring or Panel Upgrade

Very disappointing experience with University Electric. Thomas was friendly and responsive initially, but left the job unfinished and never returned or contacted me. The exterior outlets were left with exposed wiring, and the electrical panel cover was left off. I had to buy parts and finish the work myself. Ironically, they were quick to send the invoice and request payment. **Be aware you may be left with an unfinished job. Would not recommend.** Make my review more conciseMake the tone more professional

**Very Disappointing Service ? Would Not Recommend** I would not recommend University Electric based on my experience. Thomas was friendly and responsive initially, but the service and follow-through were extremely disappointing. He was hired to install two GFCI components in existing exterior outlets but did not have the necessary parts to complete the job. He promised to return but never showed up, called, or sent a text. Both outlets were left with exposed wiring, creating a potential electrical safety hazard. I had to purchase outlet covers at Home Depot and finish the work myself. The main electrical panel cover was also left off, requiring me to reinstall it. What makes this experience even more frustrating is that, while the job was left unfinished and there was no follow-up, the company was very prompt about sending the invoice and requesting payment that same day. I have never experienced such poor follow-through from a service professional. **If you hire University Elect

The project was done extremly well and exactly as requested. Was very efficient with time as he was able to complete the project to add an outlet behind my hung tv in a matter of a few minutes. The price was exactly as quoted. Appreciate the work and a job well done.

The owner and crew do top quality work at a fair price. I really appreciated the willingness of the owner to talk to me in great detail to ensure I ended up with the right type of 200 Amp meter socket exclosure and external subpanel for feeding the new installed panel inside the house but also providing for ease of adding additional future external building circuits. The owner was very helpful and knowledgeable in talking about the NEC (code) and provided excellent equipment recommendations that I ultimately had them install in preparation for all of my eventual electrical desires (House remodel, future EV charging, solar, greenhouse, sauna, external buildings, etc). They effortlessly handled the city permitting too. The city inspector freely remarked that University Electric always does good quality work and they never have return calls for resolving any workmanship issues. I highly recommend this company for any electrical work you'd like done.

They did not complete the job per requirement (left switches exposed without cover, and they did not clean up after themselves), and many other things.
Response from University Electric, Inc.
"We added the GFCI outlets and completed additional troubleshooting at no charge after identifying the issue causing the GFCI not to hold. The work was completed properly, and the inspector later requested a minor correction. We were unable to return sooner because the homeowner was out of town for several weeks. We do not feel this review fully reflects the work and service provided. We always encourage customers to contact us directly so we can address any concerns promptly."

Although Tom couldn't fix the problem with our fireplace, he went over and above board to try to help. It ended up to not be the wiring but the ignition that had been replaced less than 2 months ago.

Tom answered my email with a call within minutes. He was able to change out 8 old smoke alarms the same day and was fairly priced. Great customer service!
