For the rewiring, the communication was not good. They left the first day and some of the work wasn't complete and some problems were created from the work they did. They came back and finished everything well. Additional costs were not discussed and were higher than anticipated. For the new fixture everything was great.

B&S installed 6 recessed lights with dimmers in our living room. They were punctual, clean, friendly, and very informative about the entire process. They asked my input on the location of the lights in the ceiling before they made holes, which I appreciated! The lights look great. The only downside was the number of holes (4) they had to make in order to rewire. They covered it up okay with square white box covers that blend in fairly well with the ceiling and wall paint. Also, we opted out of the LED upgrade, but when we turned the lights on they started flickering after about a minute or so. I called B&S a couple of weeks later and they sent someone out to see what the problem was. They were very helpful and didn't charge us for the visit. The fix was to replace with LED bulbs, which we purchased ourselves from Costco. It seems that the regular lights weren't the most practical choice. Would definitely use B&S for another electrical job!

Very good, with excellent planning (location of fixtures), excellent communication of options and impacts. Note that this type of installation does sometimes require cutting into walls or ceilings, and plaster repair is not included in the work they do.

Overall, they did a good job with planning and installation.

They replaced the smoke detector with no problem. Had a little problem with the outlet but the were well prepared and replaced the cover blocking out he draught. Overall, perhaps paid more than a 20 minutes job but worth it for the peace of mind. Both workers very professional, friendly, neat workers. Would definitely use again once I figure out the jobs I need completed.

The work was outstanding. David made sure to check the location of the lights with templates before cutting holes in the ceiling, did his best to minimize the number of holes that needed to be cut to get electricity to the location, saved the holes of drywall that he cut out for later patching, and covered the holes with plates to leave a clean appearance. He could not have been nicer. He was a bit late the first day due to traffic, but around here, that's to be expected. He patiently waited for me to finish a phone call so he could get started. He tried to problem solve another light replacement. I would highly recommend them.

They added overhead lights where there previously not any.

We were burned by a previous electrician so we're very wary. Rob was wonderful! He patiently explained what was & was not a problem. Could not provide an estimate as this could be very simple or complicated so will need to be time and materials. Rob answered all our questions. We plan to hire Bailey and Ship to make the needed repairs. EXCELLENT SERVICE!

We are so glad to hear Rob did a wonderful job! As unfortunate as it is, those sub par companies exist and we pride ourselves on not being one of them. Our electricians are knowledgeable and honest, and we are excited to be here for your electrical needs!

The actual work was fine! The problem was that the receptionist seemed too careful to guard the owner's (or knowledgable electrician) time. When I wanted to get information, she would ask the electrician, not let me speak to him. I didn't like this. I was told that the installation that I wanted would take a day. I came up with another job that I wanted done that was far less complicated. When I talked to the receptionist again, it was the same way. Finally, I challenged her on it. She wanted to schedule a job when I didn't even know exactly what I wanted done for the 2 hour time frame. After complaining, she put the electrician on, and he was very nice and knowledgable, and I felt confident in what I would do, and in their ability to do it.
Description of Work
Originally, a ceiling fan installed. Alternatively, I had a timer installed on the front porch light, and some adjustments made to the back flood lights.

We are glad to hear that everything went well with the work that we completed for you! I am sorry that you felt as if the receptionist was guarding the electricians and/or owners. We want each of our customers to rest assured that we will complete their project in a timely and professional manner. However if each of our customers wanted to speak with an owner or electrician before each scheduled appoint it would be very difficult to be at our customers home completing the work in a timely manner. I hope that you understand and know that if you ever have questions or concerns we are just a phone call away and any of our office staff can be of assistance.

David and Lee were extremely polite and professional. David explained some of the processes to me while they were working, which was extremely informative. Afterwards they also installed the ceiling fan and it looks fantastic. This required a hole in the ceiling and a hole in my wall to expand the light switch from one to two switches. They laid down a tarp and my room stayed clean while they worked. They even had booties to slip over there shoes when they came in and out of the house! I also got a thank you packet from them which was unexpected and pretty awesome, I won't tell you what was in it, because that would ruin the surprise. They did an excellent job and I would and will hire them again for any home electrical I need done.

I needed wires run for a ceiling fan in a spare bedroom and all of the outlets to not be connected to the wall switch.

The guy showed up on time. He was average in professionalism but not particularly friendly. He spent half the time in his work truck. I don't know what he was doing all that time. He got the electrical socket done for the stove but brushed off the refrigerator due to "lack of time". I am not a professional when it comes to electrical work; that is why I hired somebody to do it. However, I would imagine a professional should be able to do two electrical sockets in a two hour time frame if they were not sitting in their truck half the time.
Description of Work
I had requested a electrical socket added for my stove. I also asked if there was time for another electrical socket for my refrigerator.

We are very sorry to hear that you were disappointed with our services. Unfortunately, on this particular day we had 2 technicians call out due to illness an instead of cancelling appointments we made the decision to send our service manager out to perform the work that was needed. As you can imagine it was not a wonderful day for him with having to adjust the schedule to make accommodations for everyone, so I also apologize for what may have been a not so pleasant mood. We strive always for 100% customer satisfaction and hope that you will consider giving us another opportunity in the future.

Work was performed ok but was charged travel time to get supplies (receptacles and wire) that I would expect to be carried by an electrical contractor. Receptacles were only a few feet from existing line so nothing was required to be run in the wall. Very easy job that took less then 90 minutes to actually complete but with a bill close to $300. The individual that performed the work was personable and did a good job.

Installed 2 receptacles and moved phone line several feet away from existing wiring.
