Meyer Electrical Services Inc

I reached out to Walt to install a dryer outlet. He got the job scheduled quickly and I was thrilled to get it done fast. I asked for a quote and was told one would be provided - but that didn't happen. Without providing a quote or calling me to explain anything, his team finished the job and then charged nearly $1,000. There was an additional outlet install but was not explained to us why it was necessary. Research from reputable online sources estimated the job to be between $150-300, depending on the length of copper wire ($300 for 30 ft of wire). When I called Walt to ask why the work was carried out without a quote, or if it was common practice to charge people $1,000 without giving them a heads up, he began to berate me and literally SCREAM at me, telling me what I read online was "not real". I repeatedly asked for him not to yell at me and asked if this was his common business practice - to which he got more angry and demanded I pay him immediately (when I asked how he would like to be paid). I would seriously advise AGAINST using Walt / Meyer and will be spreading my experience to help others avoid them same mistake.

paid a lot of money for Meyer Electrical to come to my home and do some electrical services. They failed to do the job correctly, which forced me to hire another contractor to do the work Meyer failed to do. When I tried to get some money back for the botched job, Walt Meyer accused me of fraud. I provided the invoice from the second electrician who performed the work Meyer couldn't, and Walt Meyer said the invoice I sent him was "bogus." So, not only was I cheated out of money by Meyer, and had to spend more time and money to get the job done correctly, but I was also accused of trying to defraud him with a "bogus" invoice. Terrible experience.

Great! they came and sevices and good communication

An unsupervised Meyer Electrical Services apprentice did unnecessary damages to my living room ceiling by cutting in the wrong location and at unnecessarily close intervals for installation of the ceiling fan and wiring. That is, despite my having marked the location for the fan installation, and shown it to both Mr. Meyer and his journeyman Ben, who assured me where the holes would be cut and the interval of cuts. The damage to my ceiling is significant, and when I calmly brought it to Ben’s attention, he and the apprentice Mike packed up and left the job unfinished. A reputable contractor will try to work with a customer to resolve a problem, and will fix his company’s mistakes at its own expense. However, Mr. Meyer, who was not on the job, was unresponsive when I subsequently phoned him to discuss the damages. In addition, when I asked Ben about his purported license, he told me that his license with Montgomery County expired.

Great service. High quality work, done efficiently. Price was fair for the quality.

He came over to provide an estimate to rewire a situation for my stove.

Storm damage from a tree falling on my electrical wires dislodged the electrical box and wiring outside my home. Ben, the electrician advised me that it would be more cost effective to provide a heavy up, rather than try to repair the current equipment. I received an estimate by email and made the appointment. Staff arrived when expected. The work was done to specifications and was completed. I have used Meyer Electrical Services times twice before over the past 15 years. They are professional and never disappoint. My family and neighbors also use this company. I highly recommend.

Ben showed up exactly on time and installed an outdoor electrical outlet for us. Looks great and works great. Walt was very quick to respond to any inquiries via e-mail as well. Would definitely hire for any future electrical work.

Walt is awesome. Answers the phone himself and will answer a 100 questions. Ben on his team has done two projects on our home and is a total professional. They always clean up after and their price is no nonsense.

Great. Punctual, quick, easy. No hassle.

Walt was very responsive and able to stop by for a quote within a day and then when I was ready to get the work done he was able to have a team out here the very next day. The process was very professional and was responsive when I wanted to change the scope ahead of getting the work done. Ben arrived on time to do the work and was very friendly and helpful even going out of his way to ensure the dust from the sawing was cleaned up - the work was done in a quality and timely manner and came in within the original estimate.

Walt did a very thorough inspection and was very knowledgeable to detect any issue. I hired him to correct those issues which required a licensed electrician and he returned to complete those promptly at a reasonable price.

Excellent work; very prompt to respond and schedule. Would definitely recommend Meyer for other jobs.

Walt Meyer and his team are consummate professionals who know the electrical code well and perform each task safely and correctly. I initially contacted Walt to schedule a heavy-up on a house I was about to purchase, and I was able to schedule a pre-work walk-through the day we closed so we could begin work the next day. While Walt was there, I identified a number of other electrical-related tasks, including ceiling fan replacement, light switch consolidation, and light fixture replacement, which Walt and his crew were able to perform or schedule immediately. While performing the heavy-up, Walt noticed that the design of the house required an alternative form of grounding, which was also achieved safely and to the satisfaction of the county inspector. I would not hesitate to use Meyer Electrical for future jobs.

This is the second job Meyer Electric did for me. The first, they installed a ceiling fan and an outdoor outlet. The second time including several new outlets inside the house and a new ceiling light. Both times, Meyer Electric was very professional and punctual. Also the owner came out both times and the first time included a father/son team. It’s nice to work with a family orientated company.

They installed a 240V outlet in my driveway for charging my new electric car. Walt Meyer came to prepare the estimate. I was impressed with his knowledge and efficiency in determining the best way to do the job. His electrician, Ben, came the next week after I agreed to the contract. He did an outstanding job - and was an extremely nice person to work with. I plan to use Meyer Electrical Services in the future.

Attentive to my questions and needs, as the house is old and had obviously been rewired in the past. They identified areas that should be addressed and w/n a day provided an estimate for the additional work we discussed. Great service. Will use again.

Terrible. They showed up to diagnose the problem, then told me that it would be a major electrical repair. Also this was Thursday and they said they could not start work until Monday. Monday came and went and when I called to inquire they said they would not work in this property. No further explanation and without power for five days. Called Kolb Electric came the same day and found a simple ungrounded neutral wire in a bathroom fixture. Re wired it and power back on, simply fix not a "major" repair stated by Meyer Electric. Stay away from these shysters.

The work went very well, as usual. We had a plan for the installation of 8 garden lights in our atrium and Ben modified the plan, with our consent and his knowledge of how the lights would work best. The result is excellent.

My electrical service was only 100 amps with a split bus panel from the 70s (not legal anymore). I contacted Walt to get my main service upgraded to 200 amps and an up-to-code panel, and an electrical outlet on the front porch of the house. He gave me a decent price, showed up when he said he would, got the permit, worked quickly and throughly, got the inspection and got me up and running in a timely and fast manner. Walt is a friendly but no nonsense sort of guy. No BS, no schmoozing, just got to work and got the job done with great attention to quality.

Most efficiently; well done.

We had a dispute with the service. When I called to discuss, this contractor called me "mentally ill", said I need to "back on my meds" and that I was "sick". Since he threatened to sue me, I am being very careful with what I say and only sharing what he said on the phone to me. HIs threats made me very scared for my safety, especially since he knows where I live.

Smoothly. I plan to contact him for future electrical issues when they arise.

Job started at 6:30am and was done by 3:30pm, one day...no stress for me. Excellent service!

Professional service. Walt Meyer appeared to be a man of few words so dont expect negotiating prices and terms but the quality of his services is very good.
