Quick Electric Service

I never wrote a review for this but we got the deal for the electrical inspection. The inspection took less than 20 minutes. They told us none of our outlets were grounded, and nothing was up to code. they also said that our home was a fire hazard. They said the entire house needed to be re-wired at the tune of $30000. After reading their reviews, you will see that the electrical inspection deal is nothing more than a fishing expedition. If they get one sucker a week, they make out. Buyer beware. BTW, all the issues with my electrical were addressed for less than $5000. Believe it or not there are other honest electricians out there.

No work report was provided, no followup, No explanation of what was done.

Very well. So pleased with there work.

I was a little disappointed. I was hoping they could do some small things I needed to have done such as light switches and a porch light. They said they were only inspectors and they gave me a list of items that I should take care of. It was not what I expected.

They were great at just about everything and they depleted our bank account by about $10,000. They did a lot. I think it was closer to $8,000. Let's call it $9,000. We were satisfied. We thought it was expensive, but then we skipped the pain. They were very professional. We had a problem, we needed some additional work and called and left messages and they never got back to him. They never did get back to us. I would go thorough Angie’s List and check out other evaluations. As of this moment, because they didn’t response to that, I would not use them again. Overall, we were happy with the job.

I guess for $39, you can't expect much. The service appears in-expensive, but I don't know what service I received for what I paid for.

I was satisfied. It was a brief call. I have no complaints. They were on time.

Razvan and Paul proactively communicated they were running late due to traffic, which I appreciated.and understand given they were coming from Hayward to Richmond. They took me through house, outlet by outlet and showed me the two "gotcha's" I would not have known about: the GFI reset breakers for my bathroom and kitchen. Now I know how to deal with those rather than call an electrician out. When I asked about installing ceiling lights in a few rooms, Razvan ran me through the process that would be required. They didn't try to upsell me on anything. I felt they were honest and professional and will contact Quick Electric Service again when I want to install ceiling lights.

The electrician arrived on time and efficiently inspected electrical system in home and another building on the property. He was courteous and gave advice; however, Angie's special deal said that a written report would be given which did not happen; however, he gave me a verbal report-electrical system in home is up to date and functioning well.

Not checked 100%. The person who came for checking installed the new panel 15 years back and he mentioned that he is aware of the house wiring. Grounding is done for few rooms so, he asked me to verify on grounding and what are the benefits. suggested me to go for whole house re-wiring which is very costly for me ($ 20K approx).

Professional and quick. All work was done in 4 days, including the permit and an inspection. I like that Razvan explains the work he is going to do during the day, and what the plan is to get there. Razvan was also very understanding of my work@home and was always giving a notice of turning the power off. Overall very satisfied with the work done.

It hasn't yet!

It wasn't really recently. It was expected. It was okay. It wasn't highly rated but it's somewhere between 4 or 5. The price was higher. They were on time.

They showed up late.

I let them know the main thing was to try to fix our kitchen light. He said he'd have to charge me. I said OK.
He found a junction box and re-twisted some wires together for me. They crawled around in my attic for a while and said they found evidence of rats. They couldn't figure out how to fix my kitchen light and ended up leaving with the kitchen light still broken blaming it on rats. I also found out later that our doorbell stopped working so they broke this by fooling around with the wiring in the junction box.

He asked me to pay him extra around ($150) and to write the check directly to him instead of his company. Not sure what this was for but it sounded a bit shady to me.

So in summary, I paid for this "Whole Electric House Inspection" deal through Angie's List, they came out, didn't fix anything, broke my doorbell, and charged me more. I'm cancelling Angie's List because of this and am writing this review in hopes that others don't get caught in this situation with this company.
