Horribly. Because the LEDs didn't look good in the kitchen, I abandoned the LED replacement in the two other rooms before they were ever started. The estimate for the entire job, for all three rooms and the outlets, was 1 day. In the end, all they did was move three outlets, take down florescents and put one test strip of LEDs in the one room (not even fully installed - they just held them up there) which I didn't like so they reattached the flourescents. That's it. Took them 3 days to do this. On top of that, they billed for hours they weren't there and the day 3 crew said the day 1-2 crew did it wrong in the first place. The slow work, hours billed for hours not there, the fact that the "crew" was not a crew but one guy and an intern resulted in a total disappointment and a billing amount that was 100% or more than what I expected.
Description of Work
Move outlets in kitchen for new backsplash and replace flourescents with LED in kitchen and two other rooms.

We had an urgent electrical problem at our house, and Richardson Ready Electric was extremely responsive and helpful. Even though they were busy and everyone was booked for a week, James came out immediately to look at the problem. He then called two more technicians, Gerald and Mike, to come out at the end of their day to see if they could trace the problem. They couldn't find it that evening, but Gerald and Mark came back first thing the next day and crawled around in our attic and under our house until they pin-pointed the problems and fixed them. Extremely helpful and hard-working guys. But most of all, I was thankful for their responsiveness and customer service. Will definitely be calling them in the future for electrical work.

Now it's not working. It failed. That's one of the reasons I remember them in particular was because I was very disappointed that it didn't last very long. I shouldn't have to call an electrician every couple of years to fix an outlet. They're another one I wouldn't use again. I was satisfied at the time and I didn't discover till much later that they didn't do a good job. I shouldn't have the same problem within a couple of years.

We had used them before, several years ago. Everything went well. Everything seems to be working well. They left the area clean. I would tell a friend that I think it is a good company to use if you need electric work in the house.
Description of Work
We had some electrical work done by Richardson Ready Electric. They installed new front porch fixtures and a new starter for a built-in desktop florescent fixture.

Description of Work
Had RRE check for electrical continuity in wiring. I had installed 2 fans (of the same model) neither of which would work. The light turned off & on, but no fan motion. RRE came out and was very thorough in their evaluation of the situation. It appears that the model of fan is dysfunctional. Will be trying a different brand/model of fan.

I have used RRE since I moved into my house in 1999. In 2001 they performed a full service upgrade inclusive of running lines from the pole, 200-Amp box, rewiring the attached garage sub-panel and mast on the house. All went well. They are not cheap, but the work is quality performed by certified personnel. I have also found them very easy to deal with.

We have been using them for 10 years. I like their responsiveness and honesty. I trust them. I would use them again in the future.
Description of Work
We used Richardson Ready Electric probably two months ago. We had a power failure in certain part of the house they came out and traced and repaired what it had caused power failure. While they were here I had them inspect all of the sockets and replace them as need be and most of them needed to be replaced and I had them replace the power ceiling fans in the attic, all three of them had just burned out.

I have been using Richardson Ready Electric for years doing everything from running heavy electrical line to spa, office can lights, plugs, etc. Why have I used them since 1997? because the owner demands quality work and their service is nothing but the best. We are now on our second day of work of total remodeling of my kitchen needing to add high amperage for an electric cooktop and redoing the entire electrical after removing of a wall. Ashley the tech has been with the company for many years and knows my home well since I always ask for him instead of getting different techs who may or may not be with the company anymore. Once a tech knows your home it makes it much easier since electrical is probably most important. Oh by the way, I am a realtor broker and when EVER I need any electrical work done after inspection I always recommend them to do what needs to be done. My account rep James is always there to receive an email or fax of what needs to be done works with me on how and what is needed even meets me at the home and gives me an exact estimate of cost. They are not just some company that changes light bulbs but can do commercial work also. I never question the price since I know that they will be honest and fair. You can always find someone cheap but I will not skimp on electrical to many safety issues can arrive. Thanks, James, Ashley oh, and you too Frank. (the owner) I left the cost a 0.00 because they are not done yet and wanted to praise them because of how well they have been the last two days.

It took them two full days to complete this extensive work. They were hard working and did everything I asked of them. They also were very pleasant in my home and cleaned up beautifully. They completed the work exactly on the quote. I highly recommend them as hard working, reliable and just really great guys to work with.
Description of Work
They installed 5 ceiling fans, 7 recessed lights, outlets for the stove and dishwasher removed all the switches and outlets from the backsplash and reinstalled them in a plug mold under the cabinets. He also removed the lights from two bathrooms and installed all new ones.

They were not very professional at all and I thought it was a disaster working with. The quality of work was poor and it ended up taking them 10 days when they said they would be done in 2 days.
Description of Work
I had 300 square feet added to my existing deck, so they added outlets and did various other electrical work for that.

THIS WAS A QUOTED PROJECT THAT STARTED DECEMBER 18TH, 2008 AND LASTED APPROXIMATELY 7.5 DAYS. WE HAD FIGURED IT WOULD TAKE THREE TO FOUR DAYS BUT WE HAD SOME RAINY WEATHER TO CONTEND WITH AND ALSO HAD TO WAIT FOR THE CONTRACTOR TO FINISH THE NEW FLAGSTONE FLOOR FOR THE NEW SCREENED IN PORCH. WE REMOVED AND REPLACED INSTALLING A NEW ELECTRICAL SERVICE RISER, METER, AND PANEL. THE EXISTING GROUNDING FOR THE NEW SERVICE AND PANEL HAD TO BE BROUGHT UP TO THE CURRENT NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE. WE INSTALLED A TOTAL OF NINETEEN OUTLETS IN THE NEW SCREENED PORCH AND THROUGHOUT THE EXISTING HOUSE. WE ALSO INSTALLED A 240-VOLT CIRCUIT FOR NEW HOT TUB AND WIRED, ALONG WITH SWITCHES AND LIGHTING. WE ALSO REROUTED CUSTOMER'S SPEAKER WIRES, LIGHT SWITCH AND ADDED AN OUTLET IN CLOSET BELOW THE STAIRWAY IN HIS EXISTING RESIDENCE. THE PROJECT WAS PERMITTED WITH THE CITY AND PASSED ALL INSPECTIONS BY THE CITY'S ELECTRICAL BUILDING INSPECTOR. WE WERE PRESENTED A PUNCH LIST BY THE HOMEOWNER AT THE END OF THE PROJECT AND ALL ITEMS WERE ADDRESSED AND TAKEN CARE OF TO THE CUSTOMER'S SATISFACTION. WE HAVE TAKEN CARE ALL ISSUES THAT AROSE ON THIS PROJECT AND SOME THAT WERE NOT PART OF THE CONTRACT. WE REGRET THAT THE MEMBER IS NOT PLEASED.

The woman on the phone was full of confusing and conflicting information. I did specify that I wanted a master electrician (ME) and she said it would be $350/hour. She suggested a journeyman at $99/hour. I said that it was recommended to have a ME do the inspection and I really wanted to go with the more experience. After we had the appointment set up, she then told me that this ME would have a journeyman with him (at my cost) anyway, because he never does service calls. I come to find out that he is the CEO and doesn't actually do inspections or repairs. I said that I didn't want that, so she tells me that there is another ME that does do calls and he's only $99. What? That could have been my first option! She then proceeds to tell me that a journeyman may or may not come out and I may or may not be charged for them. I decided to go with another company that offers a free estimate with a ME.

I called to get a master electrician out to do an inspection and an estimate of all repairs. This was what my home inspection recommended.
