This guy is the best?I can't say enough nice things about him. Last time he came out to install a bathroom exhaust fan. We have an older house that has some... quirks. Our bathroom ceiling ended up being a nightmare?3 layers of different ceiling material. It ended up being an expensive and longer job than we thought but he was very understanding and worked hard to install the fan where I wanted it even though the ceiling was crazy. Even though it wasn't an ideal job he worked around the challenge and got the job done. He's also just generally a really nice guy and very understanding!

Mike is excellent .  Because of his  quality work , he is in demand , and you need to be patient so as to fit into his busy schedule .  However , the work is so good , it's worth the wait .  This is the third project in which Mike has done a great job .  I recommend him w/out reservation.

When  I contacted him he told  me it might be a  week  and a half before he could get to us.   I liked  his honesty.    Mike said he did have cancellations  and he would call if he could do it sooner.    He did contact me by cell and came out 2 days after I called him.   He explained that we needed a ground fault installed because it was required code.  He left and got the parts he needed and returned promptly to  make the repair.   I would use him again.

Mike is friendly, responsive and talented. He called yesterday morning, said he was on his way and did our various wiring and rewiring projects in less than a day.
Our projects were in the open garage space below our house. We had only one two-receptacle outlet on a beam to serve the entire garage, where we have  a TV, small refrigerator, fan and charger for a leaf blower.  Our tankless hot-water heater had been installed earlier and connected to that outlet with an extension cord. So that left one receptacle for an extension cord to serve all those other appliances. That meant unplugging it whenever I needed to use the shop vac. It was unsightly and probably dangerous.
We asked Mike for his advice, and he decided to hard-wire the hot-water heater into its own receptacle, add more outlets on the beam, plus add an outlet to one wall, to serve the "man cave," and another on the other side of the wall.
We were extremely pleased with Mike's friendly manner and professionalism. We'd use him again, in a minute, and I highly recommend him.
 I have to encourage others to be patient with him. I called, after seeing his ratings on Angie's List. He was quite busy, quickly took my name and said he'd be back in touch. We didn't hear for weeks. Most of the time, I would not call back a professional who had not returned my call. But something told me to give Mike a second chance. I called him and he apologized profusely. He had lost his notebook with all the names and numbers of people he was supposed to get back with. So he had no way of knowing my name and number. He came out almost immediately to size up the situation and said he'd give us an estimate. We didn't get that for a while, only to learn that his computer had had problems. I think his business has grown exponentially because of favorable ratings on Angie's List, and he probably needs an office manager to handle his appointments and schedule.
But, as mentioned earlier, he will now be our go-to electrician. Professional, friendly, dependable, easy to work with.

A huge limb from our oak tree in the front yard came crashing down, knocking the box where the electric meter was, taking our main electrical cables with it. SCE&G ( the local power company) did their part, which was lifting all the cables up off the ground, but they said we needed an electrician to do the rest because that was our responsibility. The power company man recommended Mike Woods even though, I'm not sure that is their usual procedure. He gave me Mike's card and I checked Angie's List and saw that he had an "A" rating, so we called him. He came out within an hour and explained ahead of time what would have to be done, and the cost. The job was finished the next afternoon.

It went very well. He went out of his way to get here when he could. It was his last stop of the day. He is very friendly, personable, knowledgeable and professional. He always explains what he is doing.  His prices are very good.

Mike and his assistant showed up on time and were very professional.  They had all of the necessary tools to complete the job in a timely manor.  Both were extremely kind and took great pride in their work.  They did not leave until I was completely satisfied with the job.  I will definitely refer them to my friends and family in town.

Mike came to quote the job promptly (within a day or two) right before leaving on personal vacation. He set the expectations upfront for a timeline of completion and gave us a reasonable quote. Directly after returning from his vacation, he was sure to contact us for any updates on the project. When the supplies were in and ready to be installed, he quickly came to the job site and worked hard to complete the task well ahead of schedule. He is honest, hard-working, and dedicated. He educates those unfamiliar with electrical work (the majority of folks) and explained things in a way easy to understand. This particular job was his second we've contracted him for on the commercial side, but I will personally reach out to him for a job in the near future for my home. At times he is difficult to get in touch with, but that's because he stays busy. He stays busy because he is good at what he does, and has exceptional customer service. If you want things done right, contact Mike at Misc Electrical Services!

It went very well. I was very pleased with every aspect of it. The value of the work was very good. The price was very good, including the dimmer switch. They were prompt and efficiently doing the work. I will definitely use them in the future.

Fine! Arrived on time. Had me look at what they were going to do in the master bathroom and then asked me to look at the work when it was completed. Same with the kitchen. Sent me a detailed estimate and stuck with that estimate when all was complete.

He and his assistant Brandon were very low-key and efficient and a pleasure to have working in our home.  Mike was clear even before he came out to us about what his charges would be so there were no surprises.  He is a great problem-solver and I was happy with how he resolved each of the issues I'd asked about.  And, his work looks great and works perfectly.  Also, both Mike and Brandon were very neat and cleaned up after they were done.  Mike documented his jobs completely so that both he and I would have an easy reference for the work he'd done on each of the two visits.  He is very thorough and I appreciated his professionalism.

I'm very happy with Mike's work and would definitely have him back.

Very professional and really a nice guy!

Mike was on time and very efficient.  After he finished with the breaker, he inspected the RV plug and recommended that it be replaced so it didn't short out the new outlet/breaker.  He had a plug with him and replaced it that same visit. 

Several electrical issues were handled efficiently, and I liked working with him. I will use him in the future.

went very well

My wife and I had purchased a home about two months ago and all was well until very recently when we began noticing flickering and dimming lights, and appliances that began running on much lower power for no apparent reason. This culminated in a surge suppressor meltdown at about two in the morning -- something we have never experienced -- which convinced us that we had to find an electrician. On Christmas Eve. After two in the morning. 
Being an Angies List member, my first thought was to search here for someone who could fix this problem.So I found  a company named Miscellaneous Electrical Services. Not only is "Miscellaneous"  an Angies List Super Service Award winner for 2013, but going all the way back to 2009 as well. Not THAT sounds like the place I want to turn to for help. I figured, hey, I'll call now and leave a message, and wait til the morning.
Well, as it turns out, the man behind Miscellaneous Electrical -- Mike-- answers his phone. At two in the morning. On Christmas Eve. What is more, he not only had a detailed and thoroughly professional conversation about a problem which plainly had scared the heck out of my wife and I, but he agreed to come down that very morning and take a look. Again, can I repeat myself: this was Christmas Eve we're talking about.
Later that same morning, as promised, Mike rolled up in his truck, introduced himself, and went right to work diagnosing the problem. In less than 30 minutes, he had isolated the problem and had carefully dug up the ground where the ground wires went from the meter to where the grounding rod was buried. As he explained, those two items are supposed to be clamped together but they were not. This was the cause for all the mysterious -- and scary -- events which we had experienced. Mike made his repairs, carefully replaced the soil, then had me test it out by turning on everything in our house at once. Presto! it worked. everything worked... no dimming, no flickering, no low powering, none of it.
Afterwards, Mike wrote up as part of his invoice a very detailed description of all the steps he had taken, including our initial phone conversation. He was polite, friendly and 100% professional throughout.
Based on my experience, if you need electrical work done swiftly and efficiently by a man who clearly loves helping people as much as he enjoys his work, save yourself some time: call Miscellaneous!

Went fine.

Mike was able to make the initial diagnostic call the same day I phoned. Once the new part came in, he returned with 3 additional helpers. The part that needed to be replaced was at the 25 ft ceiling level. They were extremely careful and very efficient with moving our furniture and erecting and dismantling the necessary scaffolding. The job was done very professionally and in a very timely fashion.  

Great
