"They are challenging. The electrician did not bring a ladder with him. He borrowed one from my next door neighbor. When he was taking the ladder out of their garage he damaged their garage door. When I asked to fixed it, he said you don't need those screws it will be alright. He was not courteous. I have to hire a repair company, and pay $227 to repair my neighbor's garage door."

"I don’t even know where to start with this review. We have just finished with a nightmare of an experience with this company. It all started when Sean came to our house and we discussed with him what we wanted to do with our kitchen. We signed up for painting our cabinets, island and desk in our kitchen, new countertops and new backsplash. The first Red flag started on the very first day they were supposed to start the project, we were told they would come at 9 AM, 10AM comes around and no one is here. My husband text Sean and was given a new time of 12 with no apology. Noon came and went, and no one showed up, and we were told another later time, and that time came and went. We were finally told they would not be coming that day due to traffic. We tried to let that go but this same occurrence happened at least four more times throughout the project. There were 4 separate times my husband would sit at home and miss work waiting for someone to show up and they wouldn’t. One time my husband had enough, and they ended up showing up to the house at 5 PM and were still working past 9PM when we both have to get up early for work. The second red flag was one they brought our doors back from painting them at their warehouse. The paint job was TERRIBLE. There was paint streaks running down 5 of the doors (pictures posted). We had to have them sent back to be repainted, which took an entire month to do. The third incident was we wanted to replace the hardware on our kitchen cabinets and island but not our desk. We asked for them to patch up the hardware on both the kitchen cabinets and island but not the desk. Well Sean did not listen again and patched up all holes including our desk. The fourth incident was they painted our kitchen desk the entire wrong color. I repeated to Sean several times what I wanted, and nothing was ever written down. When we called Sean to discuss with him that they painted the wrong color he immediately blamed it on us saying we never asked for the color we asked for. Then continued to tell us he had no notes of us asking for a gray desk. I repeatedly told him several times what I wanted when he was at our house and felt as if he wasn’t listening. I was more in shock that he proceeded to tell me it was all my fault. I wish I could say that this was the end of the nightmare. Due to the fact they no showed on four different occasions and gave us the runaround our kitchen project lasted over an entire month. Meaning we were unable to use our kitchen for that entire month. During this month they had placed protective paper on our floors. The final day when they were done they took up the protective paper and brought my husband over to tell him there was a tiny imperfection on our brand new wood floors. The stain was completely gone off this spot on the floor and Sean proceeded to tell us it’s our flooring people’s fault and not theirs. We had these floors done a year ago and never had any issues. It gets even worse as after Sean left we found 6 giant spots (not just the one spot he showed us) on our floors where the stain was removed (pictures posted). Sean told us we would have to call our flooring people and pay to have it redone. He refused to admit that it was their fault when our floors were not like this before the project. We finally called and complained enough that they agreed to fix our floors. The final straw is the flooring people came to fix the floors and the stain does not even match our floors at all. We had several contractors come out to look at the damage and told us whatever took the stain off our floors was some chemical and it almost looks like bleach stains. Now we are sitting here with our beautiful floors with patches of non-matched stain. I hope this review helps someone reconsider using this company. I have never had an experience as terrible as this."

It’s important to ask an electrician a few questions before you commit to hiring them so you can make an informed decision as a consumer. If you’re getting estimates or considering hiring an electrician, ask them these questions:
Are you a full-time electrician?
Are you bonded, licensed, and insured?
What level of experience do you have as an electrician?
Can you please share three references?
Do you do residential or commercial electrical work?
What kinds of electrical work are you most familiar with?
Will any subcontractors be performing the work?
Are permits and inspections required?
Who is responsible for obtaining permits and inspections?
What is your schedule?
Do you offer a guarantee or warranty on your work?
Will you sign a do-not-exceed clause to keep the job within the budget?
Tipping an electrician is not a requirement nor is it expected, as they build a fair wage into the price of the job. It’s up to your discretion. There are no set rules for tipping electricians, but if they did a great job and you’re so inclined to tip 10% to 15%, it will likely be received with thanks.
Yes, you should get a quote or an estimate from an electrician. Most electricians offer free estimates or quotes. When getting quotes, do your research and verify each electrician’s license. Get quotes from three different electricians to compare. If the prices or items listed appear different on the quotes, ask the electrician to clarify. Learning as much as you can about the electrical work you want done will help you get the most accurate estimate.
Qualified, licensed electricians will charge from $50 to $100 per hour. The cost to hire an electrician for emergency visits may range from $100 to $200 per hour because this urgent service usually takes place during off hours and may require an electrician to leave or reschedule jobs they’re currently working on. Scheduling work on holidays or during periods of high customer demand, like after a major storm, will also lead to higher rates or extra fees.
Yes, although there are different types of electricians, they must be licensed, certified, and in most cases insured. States have different requirements for electrician licensing and certifications. In some cases, there may be licensing requirements at the local level, but not the state level. It’s always a good practice to confirm requirements with your local municipality. If licensing is not required in your area, you may pay more for a licensed electrician with experience than one who is not licensed or certified, but you’re likely to get a better end result for your project.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
