When the estimator arrived and inspected our electrical service, he noted several things. He commented that a couple of our 30+ year old circuits were known to have overheating problems and had caused home fires. He suggested I Google the brand of circuit breaker and investigate the problem. He also commented that the electrical cable outside the house was worn and moisture was getting into the wires - commented that it wouldn't pass inspection when it came time to sell our house. He gave me a 3 part estimate - 1 for the patio outlet, a second to replace the electrical cable going from the dp&l line to our circuit breaker box and the third estimate to replace the box and circuit breakers. Total cost was about $2500.
Two electricians showed up on schedule and on time. There were no surprises. One of the electricians showed me the electrical wires going into the circuit breakers mentioned above. The plastic coating on the wires had melted for about 6 inches above the breakers. We were glad the estimator had pointed out the issue. I was very satisfied with their work. The only negative comment I heard was from the DP&L inspector who said that the 'header box' outside the house needed to be 6 inches higher so it was above the point where the DP&L wires attached to the house.
Ben came out within a short period of time to look at what was needed. Within a few days, I was sent a proposal via E-mail.
I called and spoke to Ben asking him a few questions. He answered my questions and I was satisfied enough to hire the company.
The date was set for Friday but I received a call (on Tuesday) asking if they could come the next day due to a cancellation. Woody and Jake came out the next day. That morning, I received a call letting me know what time they would be here. They were very nice to work with and they knew what they were doing...their work was excellent! They were prompt and very professional.
Although they did not have a timer or jelly jar to complete the job, I am still able to work around the "missing" items until someone comes back to complete the job. I was not asked to pay "any" money because the job was not complete.
I would, without a doubt use the company again. I hope this helps you in your quest for a reputable company for any of your electrical needs.
Good value from a professional local company.
