Jeff arrived within an hour of our call. He quickly determined that a few of the wires in the receptacle boxes for that room were not connected. We believe that the machine that the carpet installers used to glue down the carpet overloaded one of the boxes and the backstab connection came loose from the socket due to the heat. Jeff rewired the receptacle and secured it. He also checked and rewired the other receptacles in that room. We are going to have him come out and do the remainder of the house soon due to concerns around the state of the other connections. We would highly recommend Jeff.

Jeff and his crew were amazing! They came prepared with a generator for while the electricity was off and I did not even have to worry about power being off to my salt water aquarium. He and his crew were professional, punctual, and prices were extremely reasonable. He double checked some existing lines and realized a newly installed A/C compressor was not wired correctly and fixed it on the spot for free!

Called Jeff due to an electrical smell coming from one room. Jeff was able to come out to the house within a few hours and was able to quickly troubleshoot the problem. He spent time explaining the situation and his prices were extremely reasonable. He will be my go to person for any electrical work in the future.

Overall everything went very well. We had a little difficulty with scheduling in the beginning, but Jeff always stayed in contact and we did get an appointment worked out. The electrician arrived as promised and did a great job with all of the installations. We would definitely hire Aact again.

Everything went very well. He was about 20 minutes late due to finishing up an earlier service call later than planned.

I bought the deal to install a ceiling fan off of Angie's List. We had some initial troubles getting the appointment schedule and I believe I was rescheduled 3 times before we actually got the work done. One of the days we agreed upon, he failed to show up and didn't call until much later in the day to apologize as the job before me went longer than expected. I understood, but a call before the appointment would have been better so I didn't have to wait around. He did a good job with the install. There was a bit of a communication challenge between him and us, which created rework. Because of this I was charged extra for the time to finish. When I received the invoice for the extra amount paid I was a bit confused to why some of the charges weren't discussed up front. Either way the work was done well.
Response from Aact Electric Inc
"[Member Name Removed], sorry for the rescheduling it was a hectic time and I should of got in touch with you earlier so you weren't waiting for us. As far as the installation, I installed the fan as asked, but the fan came with a light kit which is addition cost to install. The fan also came with a remote control system. I explained to you that if you use the remote system you can't control the fan from the wall switch any longer even if you loose or break the remote. At your request I removed the remote system from the fan and installed a fan light controller at the switch location. I also had to wait while you went to get the fan light controller. The reworking of the fan installation, installing the fan light kit and the installation of the fan light controller were the reasons for the addition costs. Sorry for the inconvenience."

It worked out well! They ended up working for longer than 2 hours, it probably was $300 or $400 total. The cost seemed a little expensive. I felt overall the quality was good, I might try someone else to see if their price is better, but then again I prefer good quality. Workers were friendly.

Jeff fixed a number of items including installing outside lights. Done professionally , on time and reasonable price. The labor cost was for the light install which I needed to buy the lights. I would recommend Aact Electrical for anyone needing this type of work or to take advantage of an Angie's List special

Jeff was professional, prompt, and experienced. Cared about doing quality work. He worked very carefully to figure out what outlets we incorrectly wired that had caused the breaker to pop. (he even cleaned up a few outlets that were wired poorly and even spotted a bad circuit breaker) It was comforting to know that he has over 30 years of experience. He installed the ceiling fan with out a hitch. I would hire him again in a heartbeat.

Jeff came out and was able to troubleshoot a very troubling situation of having water dripping in through our circuit box. We have only owned our home for a couple of months and this development was quite troubling. Since we moved in, we had two other electricians look at it and were unable to come up with a solution. Jeff not only figured out why it was happening but also had a very logical solution to keep it from happening in the future. He was very polite, as was his fellow electrician who also worked on the job. I will definitely use Aact Electric again in the future.

Jeff came out after normal business hours, did an inspection, and had an estimate to us the next day. In addition to the panel upgrade, he quoted on a few other items we want to upgrade...GFI outlets and a smoke detector system. Very professional, informative, and prompt. In all our correspondence, whether by phone or email, he has responded very quickly. We've not yet scheduled any work as we are needing to figure this into our budget but we fully intend to call Aact Electric when the time is right.

Excellent! The cable TV installer showed up after Bob left and even commented on what a quality job Bob did. Bob was on time, efficient, cleaned up after himself and was priced reasonably. I'm very pleased.
