Bill Smith Electrical Solutions

About us

I am a retired Electrician and I do Dock, Residential, Light Commercial Wiring and Service Work around the Lake of the Ozarks area. I am insured, bonded and certified. I work strictly within the requirements of the current National Electric Code, AmerenUE, as well as local building and fire codes. No job is too small. I work on a flat bid basis or by the hour, depending on the job or your preference. I take pride in my work, and every job is done as I would do it for myself. I do not request any money up front, nor do I request any payment until the job is done and you are satisfied. I show up as promised and get the job done. I live by the Golden Rule in both my work and personal life, and can be depended upon for quality workmanship. Since I am retired, I do this work at extremely reasonable rates and I offer free inspections and quotes. I will not perform any work that is not strictly in compliance with all regulatory codes. I will gladly offer references upon request, as I have many happy customers who will vouch for the quality of my work and reasonableness of my charges. I also specialize in wiring docks to meet or exceed the latest AmerenUE, N.E.C., and local fire district requirements. When I do complete dock rewiring, I provide my customers with a free GFCI tester to help them ensure the ongoing safety of their dock’s electrical system. If you need electrical work done and live in the lake area, please contact Bill at 573-692-5747

Bill Smith himself is a very personable fella, unfortunately he does not do the work, oversee it, inspect it, or review finished jobs. Destroyed and broke two landscaping lights but just left them in a non-operative state and installing a light on a deck he attached the light to a 2 x 4 with half of the green exposed to the elements . In addition the conduit running from from the breaker box to the dock was attached in a place that broke the conduit . Also a safety blue light at the end of both outer dock edges were to be installed. Only one was on the Outer Edge and the other was left in the middle of the ceiling because it look like way too much work to proceed out to where it belong . Two out of three have been fixed . Very disappointed in my selection was because of Bill Smith, not his crew. His work was very subpar, although upon bringing to his attention, he would have it corrected. Pictures are worth a thousand words. Enough said. Bill might be the guy for installing a dishwasher or fixing a outlet that does not work, stay away from anything associated with outside work.

It was a rarity here at the lake. Bill returned phone calls when promised, his crew showed up on time on both occasions, were polite, worked fast, worked clean and the prices never varied from the extremely reasonable estimates.

Calls were answered promptly and they called back when they said they would. Appointments for free estimate and actual work were kept and they were pleasant, professional and treated our home with care. I would recommend this company to family and friends without hesitation.

Bill responded promptly to my initial inquiry in 2013 and met with me to look over the dock and discuss the work. He followed up by sending me a clear description of the scope of work and the estimated costs. Because of other work we had going on at our lake property, we didn't get around to the dock work until spring of 2014. Once he got the go ahead from us, Bill was able to work us into his schedule and finished the work quickly. We paid the local fire district to perform a dock inspection, but they were heavily backlogged and it took them over 2 months to get the inspection done. The inspection resulted in a recommendation to install a ground wire in all outlets to the back of the box. This was in addition to the ground that already existed from the ground wire run in conduit, so seemed somewhat redundant. However, I spoke to Bill about it and although he was quite busy at the time with other work, he was able to fit this modification work into his schedule within a couple of days.

He was prompt in getting us an estimate, and made several helpful
suggestions. After we decided on a plan, he checked with the local
electrical inspector to make sure what we were proposing to do was
within current code. He started the work when he said he would, and
stuck to the budgeted amount. We're very satisfied with the job.

Bill was on time. He completed the projects quickly. He is very conscientious and will only do it the right way. No short cuts and fixed improper wiring in the breaker box from a prior person to meet code at no cost.

He had the lowest bid for the project and I have not regretted using Electrical Solutions. I recommended Bill to Windsor Bay Condominiums to upgrade their electrical on their three docks. He had the lowest bid. Windsor Bay hired him and I think they are satisfied.
I will hire him anytime I need electrical service.
