"I had some complaints which I listed in my previous review. They refunded the $189 fee that I had disputed. But I must add this in their favor--last night DTE's power went out, and the whole-house battery kicked in flawlessly. Despite the bumps with the install and air conditioner repair person, when I needed the system to work, it worked flawlessly. Original Review: I am posting this review to warn people against contracting with Oak Electric of Waterford, MI. Monday 6/1 I turned on my central air for the first time and found that the condenser would not turn on, so I phoned Oak Electric. I called Oak Electric because in January I had hired them to install some solar panels on my roof. They botched the installation (this will likely be the subject of a second complaint next week; they still have not fixed the botched solar installation), and I suspected that they made a wiring mistake that broke my ac condenser. I was wrong in this specific suspicion, but correct to feel suspicious about Oak Electric's competence. Oak Electric sent a repair person. The repair person told me that the fault was a defective control panel. The repair person said that since the brand was Nordyne, it was not worth his time to find the part, but he wished me luck and charged me $189. After several hours of searching I found the part, and phoned a local air conditioning repair company to ask them to purchase the part and install it (I could not purchase the part myself because the seller, RH Townsend of Warren, MI, will only sell to licensed mechanical contractors). Thankfully, the other representative was competent. Instead of purchasing the part he instead came to my house to look at the condenser. First he tested the control panel and told me that it was working correctly. He then tested the unit for freon and found it was almost empty; the control panel was not allowing the device to turn on because the freon was low. In other words, the information I received from the Oak Electric technician was false. The control panel was not broken; to the contrary, it was working as designed. The representative stated flatly that any competent ac technician sent to diagnose a non-working condenser would check the freon level, and that failing to check the freon level and charging $189 for the visit was ridiculous. The Oak Electric technician was incompetent and in no way deserving of his $189 payment. I asked Oak Electric to refund my $189, and they have not replied. I would like Oak Electric to refund the $189 I paid for their useless, worthless, incompetent anti-service. I'm not holding my breath."

"We hired Creative Building and Remodeling to update our kitchen. We had an excellent experience from start to finish! Every worker was professional, timely and communicated frequently with updates and suggestions. Scott Nottingham did an amazing job with our Island reface and paid attention to detail with every aspect of the job. Scott and Mandy were pleasant, informative, and created a clean and safe environment. Tony did an excellent job with the tile and was also professional and neat. We are extremely happy with the final outcome of our kitchen update. We would highly recommend Creative Building and Remodeling for anyone who appreciates quality craftsmanship at an affordable price. Thank you, John and Pamela Mattarella"

The majority of local building authorities require permits for new electrical installations, including basement outlets. These requirements ensure your installation meets safety standards, particularly important in basement environments where moisture exposure is possible. Professional electricians generally handle permitting as part of their service. Permit fees average approximately $50, though this varies by municipality.
Your circuit's capacity determines how many outlets it can safely support. High-power basement appliances like freezers, dehumidifiers, or workshop equipment may require dedicated circuits rather than sharing with multiple outlets. A qualified electrician can evaluate your electrical panel to determine whether additional circuits are needed for your basement outlet project.
Yes, the National Electrical Code mandates GFCI protection for outlets in unfinished basement areas. These specialized outlets, which cost around $240 installed (compared to $230 for standard outlets), automatically cut power when they detect ground faults, providing essential protection in potentially damp environments. This small price difference represents a worthwhile investment in basement safety.
Professional electricians can typically complete a basic outlet installation in approximately 1-2 hours, assuming straightforward access to existing wiring. More complex installations requiring new circuits or panel modifications will take longer. Multiple outlet installations become increasingly efficient, with each additional outlet requiring less time than a standalone installation.
