I initially called due to a loud buzzing coming from a wall of my home (via my own troubleshooting I figured out it was electrical not insect related).  James came promptly the following day and troubleshooted as much as possible (as at the time the sound was gone).  He went into the attic and resolved a few around the home issues while attempting to find the problem.  The following day the buzzing returned and I called again, to which James and another gentleman helped troubleshoot again...as by the time they arrived the sound had ceased.  Thankfully we were able to find out the issue was due to some leftover doorbell wiring which they sealed up and caused the buzzing to go away permanently.
James and the company were very personable and knowledgeable and were up front about costs and making sure I got my money's worth from a tough to figure out issue, that thankfully was figured out.

Avi, the owner called me directly, offered to come out within a couple days and provide service. Frankie from the office handled the scheduling of the Tech, Lonnie.
They performed all of the work within a few hours in one day in all four apartment units which we're being prepared for washer/dryer hookups.
The work was prompt, neat and completed on time.  The price was very good compared to other electricians I called who were charging up to three times what Switch charged!  I think some businesses have no basis for their pricing and simply go off the top of their heads.
Thanks Switch, I would recommend you and use you again.

Switch was the only company that could come out to give an estimate within two days.  I called three other companies and they were tied up for at least 2 weeks.  Switch also returned the following day to perform service.  I spoke with Avi, Frankie and Lonnie who came out to perform work.  All three were very courteous and detailed in explaining the work to be done.
Their price was better than I expected and I would most definitely have them return to do work.
Thanks for the RARE quality customer service you see in this day and age.

UPDATE: Switch was supposed to come out and finish the trim on some can lights and check the 220. They had come out a couple weeks prior to do some re-wiring on a remodel. I had specified in writing and verbally to them to install a 220 for the kitchen. The tech Lonnie, was extremely personal and I thought all was good. After they left I discovered the 220 was not working. I had called to reschedule them to return and finish the trim and check the 220. Lonnie told me the 220 was not part of original invoice. Sure enough, I checked the invoice and it was not on there even though I wrote it out on paper and told them verbally what I needed. I though it was kind of obvious that a kitchen re-wiring needed the 220 install. MY RESPONSIBILITY FOR REVIEWING THE INVOICE. They wanted to charge me another $225 to connect the 220. Their original price of 595 was actually good if they had done what I had specified. I would not use Switch again nor would I recommend them. Lonnie, you are very good at what you do. Find another company that is more up front and responsible.

UPDATE: on Feb 3, Switch owner Avi, called me after reading about the incident above and offered to remedy the situation.  He even offered me a refund and I refused, telling him I am not trying to hustle for my money back.  I just would like them to be up front and follow through on what we agree on.  I appreciated the fact the owner took the time to call because most companies would not have done that after getting their money.  I told Avi, I will have more work to do in the apartment building I own soon and that I would appreciate him helping me out with that.

Great Service! I called Switch Electric and spoke with Avi. He was very detailed in explaining things to me and helped me understand what I would need to have done. He spent lots of time with me on the phone and came out right away, SAME DAY. His crew was very clean and respected my home. Did the job right away and didn't finish until the job was done and done right. 
I will recommend this company to all my family and friends and even my clients.

Avi Adler uses substandard wiring and the wrong boxes.  There were outlets installed that were no connected to anything.   I paid him $1600 to rewire my home.  I have been informed that he is no longer operating under this company name. 
Response from Switch Electric LLC
"Dear Member, After you filed a complaint with the Pinellas County Licensing Board, they went ahead and did a full investigation of the situation and it was found that everything Switch Electric had done in your home was done according to the National Electrical Code. The Pinellas County Licensing Board takes complaints such as this very seriously and suspends/revokes contractor licenses if they are found to be practicing business in an unlawful way. Switch Electric was cleared 100% of this complaint as it was found to be invalid and we were found to do everything in according with all laws. We regret that you felt unhappy with the work that was done but after having a third party review and inspect our work, it was found that we provided the work that you paid for. Switch Electric still operates under the same name and license number today in 2012."
