Eric Olson Electric was a subcontractor for an HVAC company that was hired to install a circuit for our new AC unit. One of their electricians had no mask whatsoever. I told him he couldn't come into the house unless he followed basic COVID-19 protocols which including wearing a mask. I told him that we had 4 friends & family members who have died (most were medical providers). I heard him tell the other electrician that he didn't have a mask!! His colleague gave him a mask which he put on for a couple of minutes and then took it off as he worked in my house next to our backdoor and then he hung the mask on my backdoor knob when he left. What an insensitive *******. It is painful enough to have to have to deal with COVID-19 and the deaths of our friends and family but to be so incredibly inconsiderate is just unforgivable. His initial behavior when he arrived at my house demonstrated that he did not believe in the reality of COVID-19 or the risks. If you value your health or have family members that are medically fragile stay away from this company. The work was also mediocre, having left the new circuit's wire in our basement's exposed ceiling dangling below pipes and other perpendicular items not even secured to the cross beams (the zip tie is mine). This mask-less behavior is clearly a company tolerated policy too otherwise he would have had been required to wear a mask. Until more people experience the terrible loss of friends and family to COVID-19 this kind of behavior will continue.

Horribly. The panel they use to replace our old one was larger than the existing one, however they managed to cut a hole way bigger than necessary, cutting through to the other side of the wall Into our kitchen. Leaving to holes in the kitchen. There were gaps surrounding the panel exposing wires. The also moves the meter outside and left a huge hole in the side of our house with exposed wires. We called to have them rectify the situation. And were treated horribly like we should've known that this would happen. They came out with an attitude to "fix" if you can call it that, the shoddy work. And it looks even worse.

We have used them a number of times, not for big jobs, but for modifying things around here. They put one thing in the wrong place, but they did it well. Basically it's perfect, but it's slightly in the wrong place. Their responsiveness was very good.
