"<p>I called Sequim Valley Electric at the suggestion of a friend.  I needed to have three dimmer switches installed that I had purchased myself. While making arrangements for an appointment I was treated in a very easy and friendly manner.  I made the appointment without asking for an estimate.  I knew that electricians were expensive, but being a simple job for a professional, assumed that they could do it within an hour.  The electricians arrived precisely on time, did the job in twenty minutes and left. They were very nice and I was completely satisfied with the work they performed.  I was told that the bill would be mailed to me.  When I received the bill I was a bit dismayed to find out it was $92.00 excluding tax.  They were literally in and out in twenty minutes.  There were two of them so it was forty minutes between them, but that still seemed high.  I called for an explanation of the bill and it was explained to me that there is a basic service call charge and hourly rates are applied for jobs that take hours to perform.  During the course of our conversation I was asked if I was a senior and was told that if I was over 55 the charge was $85.00 instead of $92.00.  I understand service call charges and the reasoning behind them, but $92.00 still seemed a bit excessive, so after I got off the phone I went onto Angie?s List and looked into electricians on the site.  I found several instances where people were charged anywhere from $50.00 to $75.00 for small jobs similar to what I had done, which indicates to me that $92.00, and even $85 for the senior charge which only applies to seniors, could be on the high end of a service call charge.  I can?t say for sure whether or not it is a fair price; I honestly don?t know.  Maybe it is perfectly fair and I am simply uninformed.  What I do know is that I felt it was on the high end and have learned to never forego Angie?s list again.  In the future I will let my fellow members and the service people?s estimates enlighten as to what is fair before having any work done.  Since becoming a member I have used Angie?s List many times and this is the first (and last) time I have contacted anybody for service without checking Angie?s List.  And to emphasize how well Angie?s List has served me in the past, this is the first time I will not be able to nominate the business for the Page of Happiness.  When asked if I would use this company again the only options given are yes or no. Since I believe that I would be able to have the work done for less money I felt that I had to choose no.  A more accurate response would be that I am unsure because I would not use them again without first contacting the A rated electricians on the list for estimates. Considering everything, I would say this is a good company, but the next time I need an electrician I will do more to make sure I am doing business with an excellent company.</p> <p> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> </p> <br />"
