I was very pleased with the service that I received from VMA. I purchased an Angie's list "big deal" coupon months ago which was about to expire. Someone by the name of Adriana proactively contacted me to remind me of the coupon that the coupon was about to expire so that I could make use of my purchase. I was subsequently spoke to Victor who listened to my project objectives and recommended some great LED fixtures at everyone's favorite Hardware Store (which I did purchase and it came out better than I expected). He also recommended a hiring a helper as based on the scope of my project which would provide some cost savings. Both electricians worked efficiently and between two different rooms when available which I appreciated because that helped my bottom line which matters to me and I suspect most potential customers. Overall, I had a good experience based on my 3 contact points with the company. Oh by the way, yes, the electricians were professional and on time too (even at 7:30am in the morning).
Description of Work: - Six new recessed lights installed in my living room. - Replaced two recessed lighting fixtures that had previously failed in the kitchen. - Installed a ceiling light fixture in a bedroom.

We bought a deal for 2 hours of electrical service. They reached out to me to schedule an appointment, seeing I had purchased the deal. I thought this was very helpful because I was able to talk to the electrician and explain what I wanted done. He explained the pricing of the deal so there weren't any surprises day of since the work I wanted done would most likely exceed the 2 hours I had purchased.
Description of Work: We had 2 ceiling light fixtures installed and 1 ceiling fan. We didnt have any overhead lighting in our bedrooms.

Wonderful employee who struggled to get here in the snowstorm, and had to deal with a driveway that wasn't yet plowed. There was a modest travel fee charged and I was told about this when I booked the appointment. This should be stated on the original offer.
Description of Work: Checked several outlets in basement and corrected those which were not properly grounded when the basement was finished. Also checked others in the kitchen and the GFIs in the bathrooms.

I purchased 2 hours of electrical service for $99. I was charged $50. for travel--I was the second job of the day--I was called when they finished the first job--about 5 minutes away.--$10. per minute! Two men arrived--installed 2 outlets--near existing outlets and they connected a cable wire to an existing cable box. I was charged an addition $90. for the additional technician-- Going forward--I will use local companies where I know what I will be charged.

The boys showed up ontime and were very professional. They took the time to go over the work that was needed and explained any extra cost that may occur. They used protective covers on their boots when walking through my house. They were able to complete the work and also, I while they were onsite, I had them re-wire the basement lights. All the work was excellent and neat. I would re-hire them again.
Description of Work: I contracted VMA Electrical to wire a Bathroom fan/heater that was installed but not conencted. I also asked the boys to take a look at the lights in the basement.

I initially contacted them because I wanted a motion sensor light installed for my back porch. They informed me that they do not do work after 3:30 in the afternoon. We called back a couple of months later to try to get the work done again, which took 3 or 4 calls to get ahold of them again. They then informed me that it would take 2 men to do the work and that there would be a travel fee. Too much trouble, contacted Angie's List for a refund.

The work that VMA did was, in one word, exceptional. Victor and an associate came over for a first estimate and walk thru on a couple of things we wanted to do. They gave me an estimate on the work the same day, that was dead on. On the agreed date, one of the electricians came over while we were away, and installed everything the way it was discussed with Victor. There were no signs that they were ever there, aside from having the system the way we wanted it. Victor called me midway through the job to walk me through some options that had to do with structural findings the electrician was running into. We were extremely pleased with the way things were done. We will definitely be using VMA Electrical again for future work. The roof wire sensor installation and discussing some floodlight options and concerns in the office are next on the list! :)
Description of Work: VMA installed all the wiring for our TV, media unit, cable. They ran the cables behind the walls, ran TV coax cable from one end of the room to the other under the floorboards, and hooked everything up.

VMA was excellent to work with from beginning to end. Victor came out to our house and met with us to go over the work we needed to get done. He was very knowledgeable, made a number of great suggestions and got us a within a business day. The quote we received was very fair and we booked the job. On the day of the job Victor and 2 of his employees arrived promptly at our house as scheduled and got to work. From start to finish they were very professional, courteous and hard-working. We have a 4 month old baby and they made every effort to keep the noise to minimum so they wouldn't disturb our son during nap time. The work came out great and I would definitely use VMA for future projects.

I purchased a "Deal" to have an electrical socket installed in my hallway. When I contacted the electrician I was told there is an additional $50 fee for travel which was not detailoed in the "Deal". I tolkd the representative that I wanted an electrical outlet installed. When he arrrived he told me that was a two man job so he could not do it. I had to use the deal to install thermostats instead. I had no problem with the work. Justy wish things were more clear up front. Installing an outlet was an example of the typical work you could have done with this "Deal" that's why I bought it. For this reason I don't think I would purchase another "Deal".
Description of Work: Deal!

Response from VMA Electric Inc
When the appointment was scheduled, you where asked if your basement was finished, you said no. When I personally arrived to your home we noticed that the area where you wanted the outlet on the first floor was right above the finished area in the basement. I told you that I could install the outlet but would have taking me much more time by myself (about 4-5 hours) not to mention the posibility of drilling into your hard wood floor. You then decided it would be best to move on to the next two projects which went well and where completed under the two hours. There was a major fire/safety hazard in the switch box that I repaired , someone else had used the ground conductor as the neutral wire to connected the outside light that is used every day) I am personally glad I found that and made the corrections, would hate to see anybody get hurt, very surprise you said you would not use us again as I thought everything went perfectly fine.

I initially had some trouble scheduling due to high volume to this deal. I purchased this deal because I needed a few light fixtures installed. Two guys came out: one was a technician and the other, his assistant. It took them the full 2 hours to hang the three lights. When they were finished, they handed me a bill for over $120 that I still had to pay. Part of the charge was a $55 base charge and a second charge for the assistant. When I questioned this, he called the owner and I spoke with him. He told me that when I scheduled the appointment, the receptionist would have told be about the $55 service call and the fee for the assistant, which is false because I would not have purchased the deal if that was the case. I went forward and tried to dispute the $55 service call. He gave me the option of not paying it, but along with it an explanation of the cost of operation and gas to get to the appointment.

The coupon was purchased before you contact us, when you called to schedule the work my receptionist did mentioned the base charge and you agreed to keep the appointment . She never mentioned the apprentice cost because he is usually not needed just to install/replace light fixtures. When I called to confirm the appointment the day before (on a Saturday) you told me that the time you had agreed on with my secretary weeks before would not work for you now since it was your day off and did not want to wait around for us, which I understand plans change. You decided then to cancel the appointment and reschedule for another day. I then told you that my service technician was schedule out for the next two weeks, you where not happy with that either. I called you on Monday morning to provide you with another option, I was able to free up my installation crew to perform your service call earlier in the day so that I would not inconvenience you . I then explained to you the cost of the apprentice. You had paid for two hours of electrical for one technician and that you would only be billed $30 dollars an hour for the second person, you agreed and them told me to schedule your work. When the technician took down one of the lights, he found very old wiring and a undersized box. In order for him to install the light he had to completely remove the existing box and redo all the connections. That took him the full two hours. While he was doing that work the other apprentice replace the other two lights that had newer wiring. He was never standing around not doing anything. You got billed for an additional $60 dollars of labor for the apprentice, If only one technician did this service call it would have been an additional $90 dollars to replace the other two fixtures since the coupon only covered two hours of work for one technician.

The ceiling light installation done by Victor's crew went great. They showed up on time - Victor even suggested an apprentice to save me some money which was great. The lights look great, nice and clean job. I would definitely recommend him for future electrical work and would definitely hire in the future for any electrical work.

I recommend VMA Electric enthusiastically and without reservation. I bought an Angie's List Big Deal for two hours of electrical work by VMA Electric, hoping that I could get one or maybe two small projects completed. Victor from VMA arrived after having his office notify me of a slight delay in his arrival time - no big deal, a few minutes, and I appreciated getting the heads-up. He looked over the first job I had on my list and finished in quite rapidly, but not in haste - everything he did was methodical and neat, he just did it quickly. We went on to the second job, same thing. Third job, same. Amazingly, we still hadn't used up the two hours and Victor asked if there was anything else. There was, and he got it done. You expect an electrician to keep safety and function in mind, and I have complete confidence in Victor on that score, but not all of them are equally concerned with aesthetics and neatness. Victor had good suggestions about the orientation of the overhead fixture and the placement of the electrical box and took great pains to prepare the area he was working in to minimize debris, and he made sure the work areas were clean before he left. I've had a lot of experience with electrical contractors over the years, and I've never been as impressed as I was with VMA. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that I will use VMA for whatever electrical work I need in the future.
Description of Work: 1. Replaced a ceiling light fixture 2. Installed a three-way dimmer 3. Installed an electrical box for a future light fixture 4. Replaced an inoperative outdoor receptacle.

I was happy to buy the Angie's List deal of 2 hours of electrical work for $99. When I called to schedule my appointment, I was disappointed, to hear that there as a fixed $55 charge for travel, etc. just to make the appointment. The electrician who showed up was very professional. Did the job quickly and cleaned up after his work. I would definitely use them on future projects. I paid at the time of service and promptly received a copy of the invoice by email, and then 2 more times over the next week, so they probably need to work on their back office processes.

Excellent. The office scheduled the visit easily and the electrician arrived on time, despite the poor weather. He assessed what we needed, bought materials, came back and did the work with a high degree of professionalism and courtesy. He honored the Angie's List coupon and itemized the invoice.

We are new home owners and needed to hire an electrician to put in an outlet for an electric dryer and a cable outlet in an upstairs bedroom. We called one electrician who quoted us $750 dollars to do these two items. I called VMA to get a second quote, and they gave me a flat rate for an electrician plus materials. They had great reviews on Angie's List, so we gave them a shot, and they fit us in SO quickly! Their customer service was phenomenal, and the electrician was super professional and friendly. We ended up paying HALF of what the other guy had quoted. We will definitely be using VMA for future electrical work!!!

After I bought the package I called to schedule the time and then the guy told me on the phone that they charged another $50 to come out and then the cost of the parts to replace anything would be added on to the fee. I agreed because it would've probably cost me more, however this $50 to drive out I think should have been mentioned clearly in the promotion. That was my only complaint, but otherwise I thought the guy was very professional and very nice. He did a lot actually in two hours. We just bought our house last summer and we had some things that came up during the inspection with the electric work in our house. I wanted him to look through it and he actually read the report that had the issues listed and he fixed some of them and others he told me that I didn't need to address at this time, so I thought that was very honest and I appreciated that. Our biggest concern was that our electrical boxes were made by a company that's now out of business because of a safety feature and they don't shutoff on their own. He told me since the sub-panels has an auto shutoff already on them I didn't need to replace them and that we already have a backup safety and they haven't been an issue at all. In the living room we wanted to install sconces over the fireplace and I actually wanted to have an overhead light with a fan and he told me that wasn't a good idea because the ceiling was low which was actually a very good suggestion, so he gave me a cost on that and how much time that would take. It was well worth it. The guy who came out was named Dave and we were very pleased with him. We were able to schedule a time for them to come and they showed up right on time.
Description of Work: I bought a special from Angie's List which was $100 for two hours of electrical work from VMA Electrical. He fixed a fan light in the bathroom, replaced several sockets and the one in the bathroom was actually a fire hazard and had burned wiring. He resealed an electrical box outside, installed a dimmer switch for our dinning room light, and upstairs in our in-law suite we are redoing the whole space and we asked him how much would it cost to redo the electrical and he gave us a good estimate. He also looked at the sub-panel upstairs and made sure that everything was wired properly. He looked at several fluorescent outlets that were out in the basement and tested them and said that they worked fine and we just had to purchase new bulbs. I also wanted to install motion detector lights outside and he gave me an estimate on how much that would cost if I had them done in two places.
