They were very good. In my garage I had 15 amp service, I had bought a welder I wanted to use and needed a 20 amp plug. I told the guy that when I talked to him I'm not in any hurry, just squeeze me in whenever you have a chance, just call. That's what he did, he called me one day and said how about today and came out. It was a fair price and the guy he did an excellent job. He did a great job and very personable. I'd have to give him A's on everything. I recommended him to our neighborhood HOA, to use as an electrician in the neighborhood. He does a great service in that area.

At 09:00, no show. At 09:15, realized 1 outlet had ligh switch in outlet cover and texted pic. Response from them was "OK.". Never showed, never called. Used Father and Son Electrical 2 days later and couldn't be happier!!
Description of Work: Three electrical outlets in an older home needed repair/replacement. Described the work through e-mail and phone conversations and set May 17 at 09:00 for the visit. They called the day before to see if they could come that afternoon but that wasn't possible. They texted again about color of outlet covers.

Arrived within 15 minutes of agreed upon time. Assessed situation and promptly fixed. Was done in about 1 hour and 45 minutes. I think the price was a high given the work to be done. Next time I will get an estimate in advance and compare just to be sure.

Steve called me back within 10 mins of my initial call and an appointment was scheduled. He arrived on time, inspected the faulty outlet, replaced it and did a final test of the circuit and outlets. We'll be scheduling another appointment in the new year to have him add some under-cabinet lighting. I would not hesitate to recommend Aldred Electric; we were so pleased with the entire experience.
Description of Work: We had a faulty GFI outlet in the kitchen which rendered all of the outlets in the kitchen and dining room useless.

I accepted the $119 deal form Aldred Electric for a service call and 30 minutes work. The work was to install a power monitor in my electric box. See above. Conservatively, it should have taken about 10-15 minutes, including the time it would take to remove and replace the electric box cover. The 30 minutes paid for should have been more than enough, even with me standing around asking dumb questions. However, what happend was, after I finally got connected with them, Aldred sent me a quote for $225 (no time estimated) and said I would have to cancel the Angies deal and pay them directly if I wanted the work done. I’ve now wasted a week and have to deal with getting a refund. As you might expect, I am very unimpressed with both the “deal” and with Aldred. I feel like I've been hit with a bait and switch "deal."
Description of Work: Remove the cover to the electric breaker box Turn off power to breakers Install a power usage monitor Clip two sensors around the main power lines coming into the box Connect a power line and ground to the monitor. Remove 1/2 inch knockout for the antenna Connect antenna. Restore power Reinstall cover to breaker box See the attached image for the "hardest" steps in the installation.

Response from Aldred Electric
We are sorry that you felt you were mislead by the $119 deal for a service call. The deal was for a service call only. The services requested were not covered in this deal. We believe that we explained this to you in an honest and upfront manner.

Awesome. Quick and clean install of a new flat screen tv mount over a fireplace (which adds challenges), and all the wiring hidden. Foolproof automated outside light switches are awesome. Clean and bright (yet dimmable) lighting throughout. This house was so dark and dim, now it pops. They worked fast despite being paid hourly, and did a nice clean job on everything.
Description of Work: Added outlets and switches, replaced old switches, added light to ceiling fan, and what seemed like a mountain of work.

We were able to get an estimate done the next day, and the work was completed the day after we gave the go-ahead. It's a family-owned business; Chris Aldred came out to do the estimate, and David Aldred came to do the work. He methodically did what he needed to do, and was very easy-going and relaxed. We had them do work previously for us (when we finished attic storage area for a game room and home theater) and were very happy with their work.
Description of Work: Installed electrical outlets in 2 bathrooms that did not previously have outlets, re-wired a faulty 3-way switch, disconnected wiring to the main breaker for obsolete baseboard heaters that had been removed from the house, and removed external deck wiring installed incorrectly by previous owner, in a house we are rehabbing.

The work performed by Aldred Electric was fine. They did a poor job of cleaning up afterward. They did have to reschedule because one of the worker s dad became ill. They did notify me and I completely understood. They were here for the next scheduled time. I would probably not use their services again simply because I found another company that I like better.
Description of Work: Aldred Electric did the electrical work when we installed a pool and hot tub. They did power outlets, lighting, and electrical for heating the pool and hot tub. They were also contracted to clean up afterward.

Response from Aldred Electric
In response to this review, the swimming pool company instructed all contractors to place packaging materials and excess items not used into the pool (before water was placed into the pool). This was because there was no dumpster on the property and their cleaning crew would collect the debris later. We apologize for this misunderstanding, and hope that the pool contractor communicates with customers better in the future.

They were a very professional company from start to finish. I give them an A+ for everything they did. It was done on time and up to code. They worked well with the many other subs hired by my contractor. My contractor was also the one who paid them directly. I feel we have ample lighting and ample plug-ins in the room.
Description of Work: Aldred Electric participated in my kitchen remodel. They ran all new wiring in the walls, put the plug-ins in to connect the appliances and installed a new light. They also put two new plugs in my hallway.

I absolutely have not had any issues with either the job or the man who did the job either. Everything is working fine with the light and that is about it. The worker was a very talented man and also very nice. He did not rush, but, he did not take forever either. I am not going to discuss pricing at this time. They are reasonable, but, it all depends on what you need to have done.

We have kept Aldred Electrics card because they did a wonderful job for us. We were very pleased with the way that they handle business. They were friendly and on time and made sure to answer all of our questions. The price was reasonable and the work was done in a timely manner.
Description of Work: Our pool is an average size in ground pool. We had this company come and do the electrical work in the pool area and for the pool. They installed about 4 outlets and a ceiling fan. They also ran the electrical wiring for the pumps and filters for the pool.

At the time we were having work done on my pool, I was nine months pregnant, cranky and just wanted to enjoy my pool. In my house, we refer to all people who are in the pool industry as pool scum. Aldred was an exception to that rule though. I was fairly pleased with the work that they did. They sometimes had me going to get supplies for them from my own home, which was a little frustrating and one of the lighting outlets does not work, but otherwise, I had no problems with them. I will say that they were just as friendly as they could be and nice eye candy to look at. So, in general, while I do not like pool companies at all, I would use Aldred again and I would give them all B's. What I can't comment on is what they would have charged. Their work at our home was set up through our pool company, so I paid the pool company and the pool company paid them out of what I gave them. I do know it would have been a reasonable rate, however.
Description of Work: Aldred Electric hooked up the electrical systems to our in ground pool for us.

Aldred was one of the companies who worked on my pool house. I had so many companies in and out of here it was unreal. Aldred themselves did a great job with the wiring. Everything is fine, and I have not had any technical issues at all. I am not sure what they specifically charged for this service, but the entire project was quite a few thousand dollars. The pool house really looks great though, and I feel any price was worth what I ended up with in the end.
