Negative - Price. Santella Electric charges by each service performed, instead of charging by the hour or half-hour. It presents the total that it will charge before doing the work, and does not do the work unless the customer approves.
In my case, the quote that I received seemed expensive. However, I approved it, because I did not know how simple or complex the electrical work was. I learned that the work was fairly simple. Then, I had the benefit of having the exact same work - i.e., a number of other electrical outlets changed from two-prong to three-prong in not just one, but multiple other rooms, and several outlets were more complex - done in the next few weeks. This subsequent work confirmed that Santella's bill was more than double what other good electricians charge for the same work.
I deliberated over the overall grade to give Santella. I was inclined to give it a "C" grade, because of its exhorbitant price for the work it did for me. However, I give it a "B" grade because it provided good service and was prompt. Please note, however, there are many other good electricians who will provide excellent services for a much fairer price.
