Bruce and Caleb arrived on time. They were professional and efficient. I could not have asked for more likable and competent electricians. I will definitely hire Seven Hills Electric again, unless Bruce and Caleb decide to work for some other company, in which case I will hire that company.

I would definitely recommend them. James was the guy that I dealt with and he was very helpful and he did a good job explaining things. He gave me some ideas on things that I didn’t think about. The cost was extremely reasonable and the quality of the work is good. I found them on Angie’s List.

He came out and looked at installing new outlets. I just wanted a quote on this because I rent my home and wanted a price to give my landlord. It was a great experience. When he was here he heard arching noises in our panel. He got the tools out of the truck and took apart our panel to make sure our house was safe before leaving. That says a lot.

James from Seven Hills Electric arrive in a what I thought was a clean Vehicle and one design I had never seen before.He looked up in my attic and decided he could not get over the are a he wanted to work because he was 6 foot 4 inches tall and the design of my roof wouldn't let him get their.I wanted to have a ceiling fan hung. So he got something out of his truck called a retractable bar and put that in a small hole where a junction box would go.The studs in my ceiling were 24 inches apart and this bar must have been almost that long but he got the whole bar up in that little hole in the ceiling and clamped down to the studs in the ceiling, have never seen anything like that retractable bar in my life. I was having trouble with my circuit breakers flipping off and cutting off the charger i had hooked up to mower. James put in 3 breakers and some wiring and told me if this did not fix the problem then the problem was underground When James was putting up the fan and he was talking on his cell phone I noticed he tighten up 2 hinges my wife had on her trash can in the kitchen. I was very well satisfied with James work and would hire Seven Hills again. this is my 1st experience with Angie's List and probably will not be my last. I encourage people to take a look at Angie's List it is only $9.99 for a year.
Description of Work: Hung a ceiling fan for me and i was having some trouble with my garage and my house and some circuit breakers flipping off and turning a charger off hooked up to my mower.

The technician and his son checked all switches one day then verified the labeling of the power panel. They needed to come back the following Monday for the whole house fan. They were late and promptly informed me and kept me informed of how long it was going to take them to get to my place instead of just showing up late. The fan was installed, tested and ran awhile to make sure that it was properly installed. They were very professional, answered all my questions and explained what they were doing and why. As an engineer I was extremely impressed with how professional they were, how well they worked together and knew exactly what they were doing. Unlike some technicians who really don't seem to know what they are doing, these people knew their stuff. I would highly recommend Seven hills for any and all electrical work to friends, families and complete strangers. Seven Hills' is one of the very few tradesmen that I had an extremely positive experience with and any additional work in my area mwould be done with Seven Hills.
Description of Work: Replaced hole house fan and moved attic switch. Also electrical check of all house plugs and relabeled the power panel.

It took two visits for Bruce and his son to complete the exterior timer switches due to our lack of the proper material. Overall, considering how much time and effort this took and his son crawling around in the muddy grounds, they were awesome. They are willing to listen to the concerns and explain things well. They are great people to work with.

Bruce and Caleb were respectful, courteous, and very knowledgeable. The work went smoothly, and they kept me apprised of progress and what they were doing. I was quite pleased, and I'm pretty picky about work quality. I bought a coupon for $160 through AngiesList for $200 worth of electrical services, and I ended up paying an additional $155. It was a bit more than I expected to pay, but I haven't had electrical work done in a while, so I had no basis upon which to determine how cost effective the package was.
Description of Work: Bruce and Caleb replaced two outlets on porch with GFCI outlest and installed exterior switch covers. They fixed an illegal tie-in at breaker box and explained how to activate the attic house fan (disconnected for new roof installation). They replaced two-way hall light switches (upstairs/downstairs) with upgraded switches They replaced several two-pole breakers with single-pole breakers in the panel box.

James was my tech and he is very, very knowlegable and patient. He arrived early, but called to ask if that was OK. Very professional, wore booties on his shoes and used a mat outside my door that he provided to keep my home clean. This must be standard, as I did not ask him. Also, Amber at the office let me know the name of my tech so I knew who to expect. She was also very professional and made the whole process very easy. They charge by the hour, $85 and there was no trip or gas fee added, and James didn't charge me for some wire he had to use to fix my flood lights. The flood light issue ended up being a nicked wire underground that lead into the crawl space of my house. He was diligent in finding this as a lot of other things had to be checked to rule the lights themselves as the problem. When I turned the lights on, my GCF would trip. I feel that I got more than my money's worth and got everything I wanted fixed! I got my 15% discount also. I will use them again no doubt when I need electric work. I even told him I would like them to bid on a new construction job we have coming up this year of a vacation home.
Description of Work: Repair ceiling fan and light, checked switches that were arcing, fixed front flood light wiring.

We just bought an older home and wanted to update the electrical box. Bruce not only came out and gave the estimate but did the work himself. Bruce was on time and very professional. I liked that he didn't mind taking the extra time to explain things to me so I would understand. I really can't say enough good things about Bruce and Seven hills!

The service went great and I would use the company again. James came out for the service. He was very easy to talk with and let me watch him do the work. He was very much in to educating me on what was going on and what he was doing. He is extremely knowledgeable and cost sensitive. It is very easy to get in touch with them and schedule a service.

Last year one of those big HVAC companies told us we needed to replace our breaker box. We dismissed their suggestion as them trying to up-sell us because they started trying to sell us all sorts of things before they even looked at what we had hired them to fix. So when we started having random "brown outs" and power outages that weren't isolated to one circuit, we started thinking they were right. I am so glad we did not call them back. Based on Angie's list reviews I called Seven Hills, who could get someone here in 3 days. Then they called back saying they had a cancellation for that day and if we were home they could be here within the hour. I was impressed already. James shows up as promised and was nice and professional. Because the problem happened randomly we were concerned it would be hard to diagnose but he examined the breaker box and found the problem within 30 minutes! Not only that but he said there were no signs of damage to the box and most of the breakers were in good shape so there was no need to replace it at all. He did a little rewiring to even out the load and tightened things and pronounced that all was well. We were so happy with his work since he was here we asked him to look at a few other little annoying things and he fixed those too. He answered all of our questions and explained why he was doing what he did and how it would help. When he gave us the final dollar amount for the work, it was almost half of what we paid that bigger HVAC company for less work and it was better work. We could not have been happier with the service and we will be customers for life.
Description of Work: Found and fixed an intermittent problem involving multiple circuits causing random power outages through the first floor of the house.

The Deal: I purchased a ?Get $200.00 worth of electrical work for $160.00 coupon? off of Angie?s List. The Good: The work was performed quickly and accurately by two Seven Hills Electric employees. Both men were very professional and friendly. Job-specific positive remarks include: employees made sure to provide the appropriate receipts, both men donned wear disposable boot covers at the start of the job and made sure to clean up the work area once the work had been completed. The Bad: My appointment was scheduled from 1PM to 3PM, so I left work early in order to make the appointment. Seven Hills employees did not arrive at my house until 3:45PM. Since I typically work until 3:30PM, I could have taken no time off work and still made the appointment. Taking unnecessary time off of work makes me grumpy. The Ugly: My face when I am grumpy. In all seriousness, I think an overall ?B? rating is fair based on the entirety of my experience with Seven Hill Electric. I would probably give them a second shot, should the need arise.
Description of Work: Installed one, new grounded electrical outlet.
