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!

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.

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.

Great service and very professional. He even explained the difference between LED and regular lights and the savings that could be involved. Would definitely recommend.

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.

Purchased installation of one recessed light special for $89. Called and scheduled. David and Lee took down track lighting and replaced with one recessed light. They were courteous professional and did great work. Would definitely use them again and would recommend.

Employee was punctual, professional and did great work. No drywall repair necessary on two complete ceiling fan installs. Would absolutely use again!

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.
Response from Bailey & Shipp Electric
"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."

Both workers (I believe it was David and Lee) kept me informed along the way throughout the entire project. They were extremely nice, professional and overall pleasure to work with. Highly recommend them.

Great! These folks are terrific! Good preparation of the work area, great attention to detail and really solid, professional work! All This and they clean up the area as well. And, as an added bonus, they are polite, well-spoken and just genuinely nice people! A real bonanza!!

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.

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.
Response from Bailey & Shipp Electric
"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."
