1/2 the house is without power and needed someone to come out tomorrow to look at it and give me an estimate. Because 'tomorrow' was classified as too quick for them, they could do it but told me it would be a $199 "trip charge." So they were available and had time to do this but thought they should charge me for this. Horrible policy. I hung up and will go elsewhere.
Description of Work: Wanted them to look at why breakers on the panel were tripping.

Response from Randy's Electric
Thank you for the feedback. We are sorry we could not get to you the next day. We had a full schedule that day and in order to respond to an emergency, we have to rearrange our full schedule or the licensed electrician has to work overtime to respond to the emergency. This is standard procedure in the industry, and our earnest intention is to take care of our customers already on the schedule but also help those who call in with an emergency situation. Again, we apologize that you were less than satisfied.

Used Angie's online to request an estimate and heard from Randy's in minutes. Scheduled a time for estimate and it was within a week. Mike was on time, very knowledgeable providing answers to questions and making suggestions for improved project. Gave me two options at the end of our discussion/walk around and a firm start date. I would have hired them with confidence but another contractor was substantially under their two bids. If I have need of an electrician again, Randy's will be among the bidders.

It was an awful experience. Electrican showed up and wanted to tour my house and look for other services he could perform in the house and proceeded to give me an over inflated estimate for things that had nothing to do with why I called them. Very disappointed that his sole reason for coming was to up sell me. I had no work done and they still charged me a trip charge of $59. His estimate for the service I needed done was $577. I called another company on my own and they performed the work for $140. Very disappointed and surprised they were on Angie’s list.

Thank you for your review. We are so sorry that you had an awful experience and your expectations were not met. Our licensed electricians are trained to notice things in the home that are not up to code or safety issues, such as smoke detectors, outlets that appear black or burned etc. We also offer several estimate options, and they are purely options, allowing you to choose if you would like to go ahead with additional electrical work. Together with this, our workmanship is covered by a lifetime warranty. The trip charge is standard, and we tell our customers about this charge when they make the appointment. Please accept our apology for leaving you feeling far less than satisfied and very disappointed.

They said it would be 10X the coupon amount because of difficult wire fishing. I had a couple of other jobs to use up the coupon but I felt it was not that great of a deal. Couple hundred bucks for a motion sensor garage light fixture?

The gentleman from Randy's came out and did the panel replacement quickly and efficiently. Unfortunately, the inspector failed the installation immediately due to the location of the panel. The Randy's representative said they inquired about the location of the panel with another inspector, but should have checked with the inspector assigned to our geographic location. Randy's then tried to charge us to make the repair because they failed the inspection--not fair.

Angies list had a deal for Randys Electric saying $150 to install a ceiling light or fan (reg $200). When i called them i explained very clearly what needed to be done and they asked if they could charge my card the $150 and they said there would be an additional $59 trip charge. I waited one week for my appt and when they came out they said it would be $900 to do the work because In the last couple years there has been an update for breaker boxes they now need arc default. I told them you just went from $150 to $900 because i need a $50 breaker? He said yes so i called his supervisor who was very rude and said he knewn nothing about an ad running on your site and he would have to call me back. When he called back he said there are disclosures with that ad so that is why it is $750 more than the ad says. I am extremely frustrated I am having a big party on Saturday and I really wanted this light done so I am mad that they wanted to charge me $900 just to put up a light and i am upset i had to pay $60 to get this news. False advertisement!!!!

[Member Name Removed], Thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry that the fixture was not installed, and that you are disappointed with the outcome of the appointment. Our goal at Randy's Electric is to give our customers at least 2 estimate options including a lower price option, so that you have an alternative choice. In your case, we did give you a 2nd option at a much lower acceptable price. Where we may have missed it on your original call to make the appointment was to advise you to read the disclaimers on the $150 Angie's List coupon. Again, we apologize that our service did not satisfy your expectations, and we hope you found another electrician to install it before the party.

The electrician and his trainee arrived within the timeframe declared. A trip charge of $49 was stated, followed by a diagnostic test of each outlet and switch in the basement at a cost of $279. After that, we would talk price to repair what they found. Because I live in a home built in 1945 and had done essentially no electrical upgrades in that part of the house, I chose to sidestep that option and go for the circuit restoration. They explained that over time as wires overheat, they break down and need replacing. Also, some wiring in a splitter box had been done incorrectly and is now repaired. They added a new circuit off the fuse box and added new circuit breakers to the downstairs circuits. The company states it sets a job price and could/would neither give me the algorithm or state how an hourly rate translates. The electrician and trainee stayed three hours and used many parts, which do-it-yourselfers could find easily. I am happy with the work done. "It" is guaranteed for "life," the house's, not mine. There is fine print about that warranty, but isn't there always? I feel safer.
Description of Work: Lights were flickering in the lower level bedroom and family room. I agreed to have a circuit restoration done.

The person I spoke to in the office was the least helpful. They said there would be a trip charge irrespective without any quote on what the range could be for the electrical work I wanted to do around some outlets. Understand there are variables, but atleast knowing what the range could be would be helpful before having an electrician come down and me incurring a cost. Definitely need to up their game on customer acquisition strategy and just put in their webpage that they cannot do quotes.

Response from Randy's Electric
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry we could not quote you a price or range over the phone. Here at Randy's Electric we choose to give upfront, fair pricing when our licensed electrician is at the home. Giving a range causes a misconception of the potential true price when some of the variables may be wiring, panel, age of home, and other issues that may be in play. Additionally, we do offer free estimates on larger projects like home remodels or additions, panel replacements, and recess lights throughout the home etc. Again, we apologize that our service did not satisfy your expectations. We hope you find an electrician to do the work in your home.
