It was awful. It was not really two hours of labor. When the man came, he pulled out his pad and it had a pricing scale for what he charges. I would have told him to just leave but due to time constraints, I needed the work done. So I had him put up my 2 light fixtures. It was absolutely bait and switch in the worst possible way. The price was just outrageous! The deal is worded wrong because the first $89 is for the service call. I would not have them back in my home. I ended up spending $225 per light fixture to be installed.

"Please re-read your coupon and give me a call at the office. There seems to be some misunderstanding since you didn't purchase the 2 hour of labor coupon. No bait and switch the coupon is exactly what it says it is but we do apologize for any misunderstandings.... D"

The service worked out good. They did a good job. They did the service as advertized, there were no issues with the panel. It was very matter of fact, they were professional, they were in and out, and they did a good job. The price was very good.

iT WENT FINE.  LIKE A LOT OF ELECTRICIANS AND PLUMBERS, THEY HAVE A BOOK PRICE FOR EACH PIECE OF WORK, WHICH IF IT EXCEEDS THE (200) VALUE WOULD CHARGE FOR THE OVERAGE.  Naturally the book price exceeded the $200, however after discussion, the individual did the work at no extra charge.  I appreciated this.

The workman was professional and worked at good speed.  The charges were more than I had thought they would be for the fans.  There was a charge for each step of switching out the den fan for a new fan.  A charge for take down of old fan, charge for install of new fan, charge for light  fixture on same fan.  The workman did a good job on the install and he added the electrical remote.  Please with the work.

After purchasing a "Big Deal", I contacted C&B Electric to install an outlet on my patio.  Alex was running late, since his previous job had taken longer than expected, but that was not a big deal.  He was very efficient, and had the outlet installed in no time.  Excellent cleanup afterwards.
I thought the price was rather high (even with the Big Deal) for what he did.  The outlet box was surface-mounted, and I probably could have done it myself, but I was not sure what was involved with building codes, etc.

A very bad experience.
The technician installed the Surge protector when asked couple of questions nodded his head but was reluctant to answer any questions.Once he was done asked him to replace a switch in my dining room which dims the light and he gave a deal - if included in invoice he would charge me $90 and if paid cash i can pay $60. That is for the switch which costs $11 in Home depot.
I was really surprised as the deal i bought on Angies list was for inspection and installing a Surge protector but he clearly mentioned that he WILL NOT inspect anything as the cost was only for the surge protector and the labor
Unfortunately i do not remember the exact date so providing an approximate date of service provided but will never prefer C&B Electric for any electrical issues.

I paid $111.00 for the deal on Angie's list to install two ceiling fans, two men came and reviewed the job.   With two fans to replace only one of them worked at a time, they began talking about the cost and a brace needed to hold the ceiling fans up and if the existing fans did not already have them it would cost me an additional $125.00 each, however if you buy into their extended family plan it would only be $75.00 each.  Of course I bought into the family plan which cost $99.00, they proceed to charge an extra $99.00 each to take down the two existing fans had I known that I would have taken them down myself.   Thanks to the family plan I only paid $75.00 for each fan to be taken down.  They were helpful in determining that only one of the fans was originally installed incorrectly, was a hazard, and the cost of correcting the problem would be a lot so we omitted installing one fan and covered up the hold with a plate that cost me an extra $225.00 to cover up the hole with a plate,  but with the family plan it was only $185.00.... so at the end of the day I paid $111.00 on line with Angie's list to get them to come out, and ended up paying an additional $269.54 making it a total cost of $380.54 to install one ceiling fan.   Not feeling warm and fuzzy about ever using them again.

We liked them. The guy who came was really good. He was very knowledgeable. He did bring another guy with him. We ended up spending more. We got something else done. He did a good work.

I purchased a promotional off of Angie's List:  $111 for $200 of electrical work.  I had several small electrical projects, all of which I could do myself (I'm a single mom) except for moving the electrical box for a light in my breakfast nook.  It cost me $613 for the man to take down my breakfast nook light and move the electrical box 1 foot over.  Besides this, the projects included:  Installing a dimmer on a shower light- $249, take out rope lighting in master bedroom and replace LED light and transformer (I had the LED tape lighting)- $374, install dimmer on LED tape lighting- $249, take down ceiling fan- $99, and install a ceiling fan/drum light I purchased from Lowes- $449 (install only), and, install new whole electrical surge protection (I don't remember asking for this or what it meant)- $613.
If I purchased some sort of package, the total cost of my projects, minus the surge protection, would drop from $6707 to $4903. 
 
I could kick myself for paying $99 as part of the $613 cost to take down my breakfast nook light and move the box.  Since the visit, I have installed the new light in the breakfast nook, taken down the ceiling fan in my living room, and installed a ceiling fan/drum light with dimmer remote.  The other projects are pending, but after the holidays, I will eventually get to all of them...  I'm not paying exorbitant prices, and will never use this company again.
