Response from Red Star Electric Corp.
This review was submitted 1 year after the job was completed so we had to go back in our records to respond. We also contacted the customer to get a first hand account. The customer lives in a condo complex that we are very familiar with that has aluminum wiring which can be very dangerous due to problems with melting wiring and fires that can start inside the walls. He had several outlets that were not working and we knew right away that the wiring needed cooper tailing (which CAN prevent aluminum wiring for melting but is not a guarantee (the best remedy for aluminum wiring is to remove it but that obviously can be very costly). The customer gave us a count of 20 for the whole apt. and we sent him a price per each outlet. When the work was performed we found 2 locations where melting occurred and came very close to causing a fire. We completed the work and the final count was 24. He agreed to pay for additional outlets, we cleaned up and moved all the furniture back in place. When we spoke to the customer he reminded us that we did have to cancel once due to one of our techs calling in sick that day. We take full responsibility for any inconvenience we caused the customer and unfortunately we are not always perfect. However we have grown since this job and now have a larger staff, more trucks and can deal with a tech calling in sick at the last minute much better then in the past.100% customer satisfaction is always our goal and you can see that from past reviews. Our techs are uniformed, background checked, drug tested and under go constant training for customer service and we are always striving to be better. We will defend ourselves when we feel a review is unfair but will also not make excuses and take full responsibility when it falls on our shoulders.

Response from Red Star Electric Corp.
Customer purchased a coupon for electrical work. 35 coupons were purchased in a 7 day period. Customer sent Red Star Electric an email to schedule the work which unfortunately was overlooked by our staff. Red Star Electric takes full responsibility for the over site, it was our mistake. However we would like to make it clear that THIS GRADE IS BASED ON A MISSED EMAIL, AT NO TIME DID RED STAR ELECTRIC VISIT THE CUSTOMERS HOUSE OR COMPLETE ANY ELECTRICAL WORK. The only communication that took place was a call to the customer from the owner to apologize for the missed email. Unfortunately from time to time an email slips by us, that is why we highly recommend calling the office directly to schedule any work. A full refund was given to the customer.

Response from Red Star Electric Corp.
Went to the customers home after he purchased a coupon. Completed all the repairs he requested in a quick and efficient manner. He requested an estimate for additional work which was provided to him the next day. Didn't hear back until this review a month later. We reached out to find out why the customer was unhappy. He said all repairs are operating fine but would not elaborate on why he gave a bad rating.

See above.
Description of Work: I have an old house with wiring that dates from the 1990's to the 1920's. I had some wiring problems that coincided with Red Star posting a deal on Angie's List. I called Steve, he came out right away, very professional. He fixed the problem immediately, made some recommendations for some other small problems I had, and we had a conversation about installing a portable generator. It was a terrific service call. He and his assistant were quick, clean, and reasonable. I will be putting in a generator this year, and Red Star will be doing the installation. I couldn't be happier.
