Corell Electrical Contractors Inc

unknown

They were referred to me by a friend more than 15 years ago.  Everything was very, very well done by Corell Electrical.  They were very prompt, very professional and did a first-rate job.  They were very clean and very neat.  They were in and out.  I have nothing to complain about.  There's one thing that really does stand out in my mind and this goes back a long way.  The business is owned by Rick Corell and I called Rick to come by my house and look at something.  It was a new house to us, but it was an older house and the appliances were shorting out and Rick found a very unsafe preexisting condition inside a utility quarters.  There was an ungrounded wire and he stayed well past 5'o clock and fixed this problem.  The thing that makes an even more remarkable stand staying after 5 is that it was the day before Christmas Eve.  He really didn't even ask me if he could fix the problem.  The tone of the conversation was like he was not going home until it was fixed because it was dangerous and he fixed the problem.

They are great electricians.  We have only used them once.  They found a different way to do the work than the others.  They brought things that were totally up to code.  They were great.  I'm definitely going to use them from now on.  We have tried other companies, but had issues with other things.  We had to wait for ten days with other companies to schedule them.

I have two expesive lights that have shorted out since using the electrical in this home. I hired Corell Electric to come fix the electrical panel. He had improperly grounded the electrical panel that was connected to the hot pipe of my water heater. It should have been grounded to the cold pipe. Any basic electrician should know that. Now, this is going to cost me a new water heater on top of the two lamps. I would like them to come back and correct the work, refund my money, and pay for a new water heater.

I have all the notes from the DPOR and when all is said and done, they did not care about the time and labor issues. They did tell them they could be fined for using the wrong paperwork, but as far as I know, they were never fined. Corell Elctrical never tried to adjust the charges even after all the evidence pointed to crooked/corrupt billing. Mr Corell did not care about righting a wrong. I contacted the BBB. They were worthless because there were violations that they could not help with and it seemed to me that they were not interested in helping me because this company was not a paid member. But, even after all of this is said and done, the BBB did list the complaint, but to this date they maintain a B plus rating. Good to know a company can steal from you, break the law and get a B plus rating!!!) I believe they did get rid of the employee they were paying under the table. But, they still charged me 119.50 per hour for those three men.
