Douthit Electrical

On time, on budget and on point. Been using these guys for years and they always do good quality work. Not the cheapest but always professional, courteous and capable.

It went well. After he replaced the switch, the electrician found that the fixture it turned on was also going bad. He was able to quote a price immediately for that new job and returned in less than an hour with the necessary parts. We are happy with a much better overhead light (LED instead of fluorescent) for a fair price.

I hired a guy and I was kinda disappointed.  It was a $100 a service call, and a half hour job cost me $350 and I thought I was way overcharged.  It was putting two lamps up over the garage.  I didn't get the guy from Angie's List.  The neighborhood has like a club and they recommended this guy.  They said he was good.  I checked up on a few of them to see what reviews they had and this one didn't have but just a couple of reviews, so I decided to go with him.  Two young guys came out, two electricians, and it cost me $350 and the job was done in a half hour.  I really wanted two boxes put in and then the lamps put up but they took the easy way, which was alright, but I didn't think it would cost $350 - maybe $250.  They came out there which I thought was really good.  A lot of people on the small jobs, they don't want these small jobs.  These guys came right out the next day at 1:00 and did the job.  That was the good part.  But I didn't expect to pay $350 for two guys to put in lamps.  Here's the thing; there was about five guys and they were all electricians.  I think one's a plumber; I heard the plumber was good, though.  There was five guys, so I don't know which one.  I really don't know much about the company.  I know one thing, I'm never gonna use them again.  I had to pay them because it was $100 for coming out.  If I didn't pay them the $100 then I'd have to pay another electrician to come out.  They called, they came right on time. They were good that way.  My son bought the lamps as a gift for me.  Whoever did the job before, it probably was the homeowner, they used wood screws instead of metal screws, so I really needed two electrical boxes.  My house is brick and my son was afraid he would ruin the brick, so he says you're gonna have to hire an electrician to do that part.  I was shocked - $350 for thirty minutes.  Really they didn't need two guys to come out here to do that.  I told them what the job was gonna be, so maybe they were training the guy.  They didn't want to change the boxes because it would have been too much work.  My son put one up.  I picked them because they had four or five stars.  The guys weren't bad, but I will never go with them again because I thought that was too expensive.  Next time I will try to get a few estimates.  I mean, $350 for a half hour to put a few wires together? That's what they did; a couple of screws in each one and putting the wires together.  They were fair, but I will never call them again.  He did tell me the price right up front.  They didn't lie to me.  They said it's gonna be $350.  They were nice young men; two young guys.

was done quickly

They are on the high side. They know what they are doing. Scheduling an appointment is pretty good.
