The rough estimate provided on the morning of the service was $700. My own mental estimate was $500, so $700 did not sound out of line, but the final bill came in at over $1100, and I was never presented with the higher cost until after the work was already completed. The electrician that performed the work was Derek McGriff. He did a great job, and I would happily have him work on my home again, but not as part of Tann Electric; their prices are simply too high. Derek priced everything according to the company guide. He mentioned that the 240V 50 amp GFCI breaker ended up costing more than anticipated, accounting for most of the cost overrun. The breaker was expensive, but the markup at Tann is what drove the price up higher than what is reasonable. The exact same breaker (same make/model) at Home Depot is $90, Tann charged me $300, a 229% markup. The next highest ticket item was 40 feet of 6/3 wire, which retails for $1.46 per foot, and Tann charged me $7.31, which is a 400% markup. You may be wondering (like I was) "what is the normal markup for materials?" A search on the internet found two different schools of thought. Some electricians use a standard markup of 25-35%, while others use a sliding scale. The sliding scale is regressive, meaning low cost items have a much higher markup than higher ticket items. One guide I found would markup a $1 item by a factor of 2.8, while a $90 item would be marked up by 1.7. The $90 circuit breaker would therefore cost me $153. Both of those markup systems are still providing the electrician a very healthy margin. Mind you, I?m computing these numbers over the retail cost someone pays walking into Home Depot. An electrical contractor should be buying these items at a significant discount from full retail. Tann?s labor rate is $98 dollars per hour. This is at the upper end of the scale, but not a major complaint of mine. What I do bristle at is being charged for the time spent acquiring the material. Nearly everything needed to do the job could have been ascertained before arriving, but even if there was something the electrician needed, I don?t believe that should be added in to the labor hours. Think of when you take your car to a mechanic for service. The repair shop uses industry standard labor times based on the estimate of what the job entails. A brake job might be 2 labor hours. If the garage needs to do a parts run to pick up brake pads, it?s still 2 labor hours. If the mechanic is super efficient and completes the work in 1.5 hours you are still charged 2 hours, which is their reward for being good at what they do. Bottom line: Good work, terrible price."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/ks/lenexa/tann-electric-reviews-359114.htm"},"position":5},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"PORTWOOD'S MOBILE WELDING","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"KS","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Kevin W."},"reviewBody":"Called to make sure someone would be at the welding shop before making the long trip, was informed someone would be there.

We knew going in that the space we had was twice the size of the specifications in the coupon deal, and that we wanted several upgrades, which would increase cost. After consulting with Allan, who was understanding about our desire to delay starting work due to unexpected family illness, we considered and decided to expand the project further, to include a movable island work surface and to upgrade the countertops to quartz to suit our taste, as well as to vastly improve our entire home by partially removing the short wall between the living room and the kitchen. Allan worked with us to facilitate a move of a freestanding freezer from our kitchen to the garage. We chose to match the new ceilings in the kitchen, by having them scrape and retexture the ceilings in the living room and hallway, which adjoined the kitchen. We further enhanced our homes' new look with new interior doors, which they installed for us and then we chose to paint them ourselves. (A great thing for us as it is something we can do and wanted to do.) They retextured and repaired a couple of cracks in the living room where our house had settled, and then we painted the living room and hallway and entryway. They also installed a pendant light in our entryway. Our experience was really good. Allan initially, and as situations arose, offered options for design solutions in our kitchen, then when we caught our own vision he was accommodating to our desires, including the choice of countertop material and color, paint choice, type and size of backsplash tile. This changed the pricing in some cases, as was necessary and fair. Though we had never before taken on a project of this size, we were comfortable from the very early days with Allan and Chris being in our home. Because my husband was out of town on business for days at a time during the project, they both ended up having to discuss details with me, throughout the project. I could imagine types of people that would have made that unpleasant, uncomfortable, or unbearable, but these are good, hardworking guys who care about the details and are good people to have around. The subcontractors also were good, including the countertop installers and Dave, who installed the beautiful hardwood floors. We anticipate having Allan and Chris do other remodeling projects for us in the future.

After two weeks of waiting and not being contacted by C & R or a contractor, I called C & R to follow up on the status.

Appliancezone.com is a leading on-line retailer of appliance parts and accessories for do-it-yourself homeowners. Incorporated in 2008, it was started by CEO, Jim Allen and his wife Paula, who operated an appliance repair business for nearly fourteen years prior to starting the internet company Appliance Zone.
"This is the first online review I've ever written -- my experience with this company was that bad. Three aspects that deserve attention: 1) I placed an order and tried to cancel six minutes later. Turns out they don't accept cancellations. 2) I couldn't find a phone number, so I had to work the return/refund by email. The exchange was painful -- so unhelpful I felt like I was interacting with a bad chatbot. 3) I ended up eating shipping costs (expected) and got hit for a 50% restocking fee (unexpected) because I refused the package instead of paying to ship it back. Didn't matter that it went to the correct address, was clearly labeled, and had prior return authorization. So I ended up with a $21 refund on a $60 order, and a lesson learned about where not to buy appliance parts."

FAQs for appliance repair projects in Effingham, KS
If your refrigerator needs to be repaired, contact an appliance repair company to diagnose the issue and repair your refrigerator. It’s okay to leave it plugged in and running, but unplug it if it makes unusual noises.
Signs that your refrigerator may need repairs include:
Food items are not being held at the correct temperature (between 35 and 38 degrees Fahrenheit)
The fridge is using too much energy and seems to run all the time
Loud and/or unusual noises
Possible causes include:
A damaged door
Faulty condenser coil
Malfunctioning control board
Contacting an appliance repair professional as soon as possible can help save items in your fridge from spoiling. Common fridge repairs include the compressor, control board, thermostat, defrost motor, coils, and ice maker.
If you’re having problems with your dryer, contact an appliance repair professional as soon as possible to inspect and repair it. Having a faulty dryer can be a major inconvenience in the home.
Your dryer may need repairs if:
It isn’t turning on
It’s not releasing enough heat
The drum doesn’t spin
Common repairs include:
A damaged or worn-out belt or
Damaged or shorted electrical wiring
A control board malfunction
Dryers tend to overheat or become short-circuited over time, especially after heavy use. Other common dryer repairs include door switches, timers, and control boards.
If the unit is not under warranty, then you may want to call a reliable appliance repair technician to diagnose the issue and recommend a repair. Some of the most common washing machine issues are inadequate water supply to the unit, poor drainage due to clogging, leaks, and excessive vibration while washing. Like ovens, the cost to repair a washing machine will vary widely depending on which issue you’re experiencing.
The average cost to repair an appliance depends on the appliance, make, model, the part that needs repair, and how long it takes to replace or repair a part. The following are the average repair costs for the most common appliances:
Refrigerator: $200–$300
Freezer: $90–$500
Oven, cooktop, range: $100–$500
Microwave: $50–$400
Dishwasher: $160–$300
Garbage disposal: $70–$250
Washing machine: $50–$450
Dryer: $100–$400
Appliance repair contractors may charge $40 to $120 per hour for labor, and most also provide the replacement parts necessary at an additional cost. It’s also important to note that these prices can go up on holidays and emergency fees may apply if you need your appliance fixed immediately.
It's good to contact the manufacturer first to see if any warranties still exist, and if they have any specific repair persons they recommend. Some specialty units or smart units may require the assistance of a manufacturer-approved technician. Oven issues can be more challenging to diagnose than other appliances in the home because many of the parts are difficult to access for inspection or replacement. Some common oven repairs involve replacing damaged burners, heating coils, or electric cables. Purchasing additional parts, such as a new heating coil may also increase the total repair cost.
