Since 1883 McQuillan Home Services has been Minnesota’s Original plumbing, heating, and cooling company. At McQuillan we’ve always remained true to our mission of providing solid, honest work to all our customers. Join the McQuillan Home Services family as we continue to raise the bar and provide generations of happy customers with quality plumbing, heating, AC, electrical, and drains service.
"Oh, how I wish there were a grade lower than F. McQuillan managed to provide both poor customer service *and* bad technical work. The company came out to do a full replacement of our A/C unit and furnace, switching to minisplits and a boiler/radiator system. The minisplit side of the equation went just fine. The rest has been a disaster. This all started the first week of August, so they would have plenty of time to get the work done before winter...so we thought. Instead the installed the boiler incorrectly, causing it to make loud noises and not actually provide any hot water. After calling five times and having two missed appointments, they finally sent out a plumber who informed us that it was so badly screwed up, an entire crew would have to come out and fix it (which they eventually did, two whole weeks later). It took three people nine hours (!!) to fix whatever they did wrong. Now on to the radiators. Several were backordered to the first week of September, obviously not their fault. Once they called us to say the new radiators were ready for installation, they couldn't "fit us into their schedule" for three more weeks! When they did show up, we found one radiator completely missing, two ordered in the wrong finish, and several others that couldn't be installed because they didn't have the right parts and weren't sure how to get them (WHAT?). And, this is a minor issue compared to everything else, but they ask you to pay as you go, so every time someone shows up they want to collect money. Multiple times we've asked to see an itemized bill so we know what all our payments have gone to (this is a large job and we just want to keep track of everything), but we still have yet to see a single invoice or receipt of our payment. Which brings us to today. We're not currently on their schedule at all. Half of our radiators are installed, but none are active on the system, so we have no heat. It's early October, and the temperature tonight is supposed to reach 35 with a frost warning (which is one things for my husband and I, but we also have three kids under the age of 6). We've called multiple times the past two days and no one will call or email us back to tell us when we are actually going to have heat. I'm extremely close to reporting them to the BBB and calling a different company to finish the job so we can stay warm. I wouldn't wish McQuillan on my worst enemy."

Aquarius Home Services is the top home service provider in Minnesota and Wisconsin. Offering expert service in HVAC, Water Softeners, Plumbing and Electrical . Our work is backed by a 100% performance guarantee.
"Nick was waiting for me when I came back from an errand. He was very good at explaining what he was going to do, then did it, then explained what he found. Very professional! Aquarius should tweak their scheduling plan to incorporate windows of when the tech will arrive. The current method of announcing that the tech will be there without stating when is very inconvenient for the homeowner."

Replacing a light fixture requires one to two hours for a standard model when proper wiring is in place, and it requires four hours for intricate fixtures such as chandeliers that demand extra reinforcement and alignment. The duration is fixed by the fixture design and the existing wiring status. When wiring is not in place, running new wiring extends the project timeline while ensuring safe and compliant installation.
Replacing a damaged or outdated light fixture is the optimal solution to ensure safety and enhance your home’s aesthetics. A compromised fixture poses serious risks, such as fire and electric shock, and installing a new fixture eliminates these hazards. New fixture installation guarantees enhanced performance, improved energy efficiency, and a modern design that elevates your home's overall appeal.
The average cost of removing a light fixture ranges from $50 to $250, depending on the labor required. Detaching a simple pendant light can be done in as little as 15 minutes, while a complicated removal can take over two hours. The price will increase if additional work, such as disposal and wire capping, is required.
Professional installation of a light fixture guarantees a safe and code-compliant setup. Certified electricians possess the necessary training and experience to perform installations with flawless wiring and secure mounting. Their expertise prevents electrical hazards, such as shocks or fires, and ensures that installation meets rigorous safety standards while providing long-term reliability and performance.
The cost to install under-cabinet lighting depends on the length of your cabinets, the number of fixtures required, and the desired brightness. Most homeowners pay an average of $200 to $500 per fixture. The average rule is to install one fixture for every 8 to 12 inches of cabinet length.
Flickering or dimming, frequent burnouts, visible damage, hot temperatures, or burning smells are the top warning signs that a light fixture requires replacement. If you notice these signs, contact an electrician immediately to prevent electrical hazards or fire.
