"I want to start off saying that we’re very professional over the phone. But, when I called saying my power was not working they were very responsive to come out and attempt to fix it. They came out noticed the issue was not able to be fixed because of the crawl space being wet. Charged my gf that did not know what to do $175 for saying they couldn’t fix the problem. A technician from another company came out and fixed the issue in 15 minutes and charged less not even needing to go into the crawl space. I called to get my money back and they were professional, but could not refund me the money because it “cost money to send the truck”. So if you don’t want to lose $175, I wouldn’t recommend."

"Tristen arrived the afternoon after my morning inquiry (same day). Finding the problem was difficult as the home is older with more complex wiring.
