Description of Work: We got the $200 deal for $99. This included the normal service charge and then some service time. You have a truck fee even if they do not use any parts off their truck which is $29 that they do not mention prior to arrival. There are too many hidden fees. We wanted 3 ceiling lights switched with new lights. Another electrician we have used from Angie's List had no hidden fees and I am using RaLO Enterprises next week.

I called you to try to resolve your bad experience with our company but you stated there was nothing we can do and you found another company to go with, Well we wish you the best of luck with that, and we are sorry you couldn't give us a chance to make things right.

Description of Work: Victor H was the professional from Murphys and he arrived on time and was excellent. He found and fixed a loose wire in an outlet that was always shorting out but not tripping the breaker box. He did the job quickly and effectively while most likely preventing a house fire down the road. The coupon I purchased covered the whole thing and I couldn't be more pleased with Murphys service thanks to Victor.
