Called them twice the past week or so to schedule a free estimate for some electrical work I might have done, and they never called me back. Must be nice to have so much work you can ignore potential customers. I had their business card from back when, but that's now in the trash and will be calling someone else.

Response from Westborn Electric
I am so sorry you had this experience, for the past week we have been experiencing major technical difficulties with our computers and phones. We are grateful to all our customers for being given the opportunity to work with them. If you feel you could give us a 3rd chance, I would love to discuss your project and provide you with a free estimate. We are sincerely sorry for the inconvenience we have caused.

First off, everything Westborn electric did is on camera from my home security system. I will never recommend Westborn electric or do business with this place ever again. Extremely rude head electrician along with the owner, Mark. I was told by the owner “He’s moving the pump out of the way and trying to extend it around the pool” in a text after the owner yelled at me on the phone when I have every right to know what is going on in my yard. The pump is not close enough to the box because the short fuse guy goes- I’m not moving the pump! The whole point for this visit was to get the pool running and pass. The head electrician didn’t move the pump at all and the pole they installed- they didn’t even cement down. It wobbles all over the place. Not safe when u have a ton of kids. Just because u r having a bad day and have 30 years in the business- so what- doesn’t mean u take it out on your customers. I did nothing wrong. I offered them water and tried to make sure we were all on the same page which we were not. I never received a written estimate either of exactly what was going to be done, just verbal. The head electrician has a short fuse- not my fault and so what- u do not treat your customers this way and the owner knows he has a short fuse and sent him to my house anyway - why should I have to deal with him? I was nothing but polite to the owner when I met him and to his workers until this head electrician got an attitude - maybe he doesn’t like his job and maybe should not be sent out to do work for the owner regardless of why!!! The inspector said the pole had to be moved 6 feet away from pool. He moves it 5 feet and a little he said. When I called the owner he blocked me because I was telling him how his worker was acting. Very unprofessional and very rude company and an extremely sloppy job and not done according to what the owner texted to me would be done at all. Then the head electrical was like ugh when I asked him to put paid in full instead of just paid on the receipt then started yelling at me to hurry up because they were late. Completely unfair and ridiculous!

Excellent company. No electrical company from Monroe County, Michigan, would return my call. Westborn came from Dearborn Heights to my home in Newport, Michigan. Wonderful electricians. Worth every dime of the $165.00 they charged.

I would not recommend. While the person who answered to schedule the estimate was friendly and professional, the appointment was cancelled and rescheduled. I understand things come up; that’s not my concern. My issue was the man who showed up at my home was not wearing a mask, nor did he have one in his vehicle and seemed put out that I would not let him in my home without one. I can not understand how a business would operate like this during COVID.

I cannot have been happier with the great professional service we had from everyone at Westborn Electric! They were wonderful to work with. They did extensive work of the house we sold last summer and on the new home we bought as well. Some of the best contractors I ever hired. Would hire them again, for sure.

The job went very well. I was called when the fellows were on their way to my home and they arrived at the estimated time I had arranged in my phone call to make the appointment. The fellows went right to work and completed the job in a short time. They were friendly, yet professional, and wanted to make sure that the light worked and I was satisfied before they left. A few days later I received a Thank You card in the mail, along with a card for 10% off labor on the next job I call for.

Horrific interaction. Weatborn referred to Osburn Services and refused to return a call despite multiple phone calls where I was promised a return call. Osburn did not complete installation as was verbally described and cut multiple corners to complete job quickly but poorly. Gas leak was reported but they did not resolve for 3 days, an obvious safety issue. Strongly recommend to avoid both companies as they are clearly after quick revenue with no regard to customer satisfaction. Will never do business with either company again.

Westborn was very responsive and professional throughout my job! Was a bit on the pricier end of the spectrum for what was done (rewire a 30-amp EV circuit to 50-amps and replace the existing car charger with one I supplied) but no complaints about the end result! Works great, looks good.

Westborn came and check on the line that was cut by a tree that got struck by a lightning and fell down on the electrical lines. Westborn was able to identify the problem and recommend to contact DTE for the repairs since it was the mainline that was cut and DTE will fix the line for free.

Westborn Electric did a fantastic job getting our family room ready for remodeling. They added four can lights, recommending LED, which I prefer anyway. They added two outlets and changed out all the old outlets which were the wrong color and getting very old. They also ran our cable and ethernet line to an outlet. There was a bit of a mixup in that we thought they would terminate the cable and ethernet line in an outlet, but a check of the work order showed that was not ordered. The lesson I learned was to always check the details of the work order. I would not mark them down for that. My wife and I were able to install the cable and ethernet outlet ourselves after the job was finished. Overall, we are very pleased and would recommend them.

I contacted Westborn and they responded within 30 minutes to an hour. They were at my house less than an hour after that so responsiveness was AMAZING! The two lighting professionals worked efficiency and were very nice. The lights look beautiful!

Absolutely horroible experience. They electricians they sent to our office harrassed our staff and used profane, racist language that deeply offended everyone. When asked to stop they continued and at an even louder volume. We are filing a complaint with the better business bureau in an attempt to get this on record, hopefully with action, to prevent anyone else from having to be subject to such abuse.

We would like to thank [Information Removed] for bringing this unfortunate, isolated, incident to our attention. We hasten to add that this is an isolated incident, as Westborn Electric has had a long standing and successful business relationship, up until this point, with [Information Removed]. Our company has a zero tolerance policy for such behavior, and we have personally reached out to apologize to all offended. We understand your frustration, but feel it unfair to be graded poorly in all categories, and are in sincere hopes of restoring the business relationship.
