Ceiling Fan Service
I called Mr. electric to install a ceiling fan in an upstairs bedroom. They came out the same day and were on time. The tech was very friendly and professional. They wanted $650 to install the ceiling fan that I had already purchased! I got two other quotes from electricians and both of those quotes were $250. That's a no brainer! Make sure you get a few quotes for your electrical work!! Mr electric is severely over priced!!!

It was amazing. I called early in the morning, they said someone would be at my house within 45 minutes. I went to move my car out of the driveway, and they pulled out right as I moved my car! It didn't even take 15 minutes. They were extremely professional, the quality of the work was great and the price was extremely reasonable. I would recommend everyone to use Mr. Electric, I know I will in the future.

The representative showed up within the hour of my requesting a quote. He had a very cold attitude and immediately went to keying numbers into his Ipad. His quote was $524.00 dollars for about an hour of work. When I responded that it was way too much for no more that 90 minutes of labor, he reduced the price to install to $324.00. Needless to say, I did not hire this company and can not recommend them to others.

I called and requested an electrician to rebalance a ceiling fan. An electrician came at the appointment time. He was very pleasant and personable. He did an estimate of $160 which I found to be extremely high for the job in question unless he intended to completely dismantle the fan. After I said go ahead because I have no other choice, he did dismantle the fan; not once, but 2 or more times. During all these dismantlings he discovered a missing part which contributes directly to preventing light fixture wobble. (I called and ordered the part which arrived and was installed by him on a different day.) He put the fan back together and then left to purchase a blade balancing kit. He returned promptly and then attempted to balance the blades. However, the light fixture was wobbling quite a bit so he dismantled the fan again, checked everything and put it back together again. He adjusted the speed of the fan to LOW which reduced the light fixture wobble considerably. I paid him and requested a written invoice. He said he would email one so I gave him my email address. All I received via email was a customer satisfaction survey --- no invoice. I did complete the survey and emailed it back. I sent an email directly from their website requesting a written invoice but have not yet received a reply. Several hours later when I turned the wall switch on which activates the fan and light fixture, neither would function. So, I called Mr. Electric 800 number and requested that the same electrician come back. While the receptionist was trying to reach the electrician, the fan and light came on. Scared me!!! This could have been an electrical short which might have caused a fire. Well, the receptionist came back on the line and informed me the electrician REFUSED to come back until the next day at Noon. She also said all I needed to do was keep the wall switch turned off and there would be no fire hazard. Very unsettling. Needless to say, the electrician returned the next day at 12:30 p.m. as promised. He removed the upper housing of the ceiling fan, disconnected all the electrical wirings, assured me there was no short and reconnected them. The fan operates on LOW speed only (to avoid light fixture wobble). Both the fan and the lights operate from only one wall switch. I again requested a written invoice from him and he assured me he emailed it but would do so again. I again received a customer satisfaction survey but no invoice. In the process of reconnecting the electrical wirings, a wall switch which previously controlled just the light fixture was left out of the circuit and no longer functions. This makes it very difficult to operate the lights since the fan is located directly over my bed and I am unable to reach the pull chain without a ladder. This has been the most disappointing service I have ever experienced. The electrician is a very nice personable young man. However, I think he was sent on this call to perform work he was not very familiar with. I would very much like the company to restore the ceiling fan and light fixture to its original operating condition --- without light wobble (even though the part was missing all these years it did not wobble no matter the speed of the fan) and the wall switches operating correctly --- one for the fan operation and one for the light operation, without charges to me. After all, it was operating very well, except for unbalanced fan blades, when the electrician took it apart. I would also like a written invoice covering the $160 which I paid for all this. Electrician said fan now needs to be replaced. I wrote to the Better Business Bureau and the Attorney General regarding this ordeal. Mr. Electric representative telephoned me and promised to refund the $160 I paid plus write me a check for ($260) the cost of a replacement fan and the installation charges quoted by a different company. I have received the refund to my credit card of $160 but have yet to receive the promised check.

I was able to fairly effortlessly get a free estimate scheduled with this company; there was lots of flexibility and promptness with getting an ideal time set up. The representative (Chad) from Mr. Electric was very friendly, informative, and open to extended questioning. While I could not receive an estimate on the spot due to the complexity of the project (he had to run it past his manager), I received one shortly thereafter. I will not arranging for Mr. Electric to complete this work due to its estimates being higher than others I received, but given that the estimate was free, easy to schedule, informative, and largely hassle-free, I have no complaints and would reach out to them again in the future.

Based on the amount of work completed the job took 2 days. Electrician was professional and on time each day. He cleaned up any of the mess in each room. He was able to install the can lights and ceiling fan box without damage to the ceiling.
