Steve and his assistant came out about a week after I contacted him. Was a few minutes delayed by traffic, and let me know. He solved all my issues in less than an hour. My light fixture was missing a couple of decorative screws, so he provided some similar ones he had in the truck.
When I mentioned lights dimming when I turned on an appliance, he suggested I ask PG&E to measure the load on my exterior wiring.
While the main reason for the project was to upgrade our service to 200 AMPs; some of the smaller jobs (power to the shed and moving light switch) are most useful.
The whole job took 6 days:
1 day for pre-work and small jobs
1 day for the shed and panel
4 days for stucco
1 day was needed for the city of Campbell to inspect the way the house was wrapped/prepared for stucco
2 days to apply/reapply the stucco (it was very hot on the first day and the stucco dried too quickly.)
1 day was needed for the city of Campbell to inspect the final stucco
As a home owner, it is awesome that our city requires 3 inspections for a panel upgrade, but this increased the days needed to complete the work. We will use SOUTHWEST ELECTRIC for future electrical needs.
When it proved to be much less, I asked the repair person if it was $175 and he said yes. To me that is a lot for 15 minutes work.
I blame myself for not getting more estimates.
I would possibly use them again, but only for a larger project, and would get more estimates.
