After receiving my bad review (below), to their credit Murphy Family Electric contacted me almost immediately. Both the manager and sales rep promised to do anything within their power to resolve the situation, and they were true to their word. The correct outlet was installed within one week at no charge, and it works properly.
Thank you, Murphy Family Electric, for taking the time to rectify the situation.
This was a disaster from start to finish. The voucher for service was bought, and message sent to the company promptly. However, instead of Murphy following up with me immediately, I finally had to contact them to schedule service and explain what I wanted. After discussing the details on the phone, I sent the following confirmation by e-mail (note *I* had to send it, not the other way around): "Thanks for calling me back yesterday and scheduling my appointment on Monday at 7 a.m. for installation of one 120v, 16A (this is a 20amp) and one 240v 30A Twist-Lock outlet on the outside of my house." When the technician arrived on Monday, he did not know what to do and had to ask my partner for the details, who in turn had to call me to reiterate what exactly was to be done. The technician did not have the proper outlets in his truck so had to leave to buy them. On returning, he installed the 120v outlet correctly, but stated he couldn't find the proper 240v outlet, so would have to return the next day to install. Keep in mind, we are working people who are not home during the day, so having the tech come out again would mean another day of work lost. Fortunately, he did manage to drill the correct holes so that he would not have to gain access to the inside of the house on the second day. I came home that day to find the 240v outlet installed incorrectly, with only one receptacle and a gaping hole and exposed wires left open to the elements where the other receptacle was supposed to be. I immediately sent an e-mail and pictures of the shoddy work to the company, who responded with more questions about the type of outlet required. I sent them the direct link to the EVSE site with pictures of the product that would be using the outlet. "I spoke directly with Tesla today. You will need a straight prong receptacle, versus the twist lock. When will the car or the cord for the car be delivered? Thank you." "Thanks for the follow up. We in fact have a Nissan Leaf, and the upgraded EVSE requires a twist lock outlet (see http://evseupgrade.com/?main_page=product_info&cPath=1&products_id=2). I'm more concerned with the open hole in the outlet than with the type." The third visit from the tech was scheduled for the next day, and he came and installed the outlet. When the EVSE arrived the outlet was the wrong type (L14 30P instead of L5 30P). Instead of risking another botched job and more delay and cost, I purchased an adapter for $50. And finally, to add insult to injury, the company charged me the full price of the work instead of honoring the voucher from Angie's List, necessitating a check for the difference to be sent in the mail. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY for critical electrical needs. They do not, apparently, know what they are doing."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/va/alexandria/murphy-family-electric-reviews-2089667.htm"},"position":8},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"The Brothers That Just Do Gutters","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"VT","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Amy A."},"reviewBody":"Both for the estimate and for the installation, workers were on time, very professional, actually listened to my requests, and answered all of my questions. They never made me feel as if I was keeping them from another job. The estimator even suggested that since my downspouts were in good condition, they did not need to be replaced. The installers also were very professional, worked efficiently and cleanly, and completed the job within the projected time frame. They even ran a rolling magnet over my entire lawn, walkways, and driveway when they were done, so as not to leave behind any scraps of metal or screws!!! Overall, an excellent experience!!! I would happily use them again, and would recommend them to others without any reservations. Thanks, "Brothers" !!!

The folks at Jay Mechanical were amazing! We got our quote quickly and within 3 days they were at the house installing our new hot water tank. The technicians were courteous and very considerate - even putting down drop cloths so no dirt would be on the floors. Their pricing was very fair...

Windows were pricey but the high quality of work/installation helped to balance the overall cost. The installation expert was courteous, knowledgeable and professional. I would and will recommend him in the future.
Elite was absolutely phenomenal. A+ communication, was on-time, completed the work in a professional manner with a very clean install. They offered friendly advice and made sure I was happy with the work. Would absolutely hire again.
Walter is a very skillful carpet installer. High quality work. He took an impossible task and made it possible. He is a great communicator and very professional. A pleasure to do business with!

FAQs for tv antenna installation projects in Pownal, VT
The average cost to hire a handyman ranges from about $40 to $140 per hour. Average project cost ranges between $180 and $700, but the cost per hour and per project depends heavily on the type, size, and complexity of the project. The pro’s experience level and your location also factor into how much a handyman charges per hour or per project. You can also expect to pay higher rates or additional fees for emergency services, or around periods of high customer demand, like holidays.
If your TV antenna is good quality and was installed by a professional, you can expect it to last between 10 and 20 years without needing repair or replacement. This can vary based on your geographic location, weather conditions, and antenna location.
Yes, you should get a quote or an estimate from an electrician. Most electricians offer free estimates or quotes. When getting quotes, do your research and verify each electrician’s license. Get quotes from three different electricians to compare. If the prices or items listed appear different on the quotes, ask the electrician to clarify. Learning as much as you can about the electrical work you want done will help you get the most accurate estimate.
Qualified, licensed electricians will charge from $50 to $100 per hour. The cost to hire an electrician for emergency visits may range from $100 to $200 per hour because this urgent service usually takes place during off hours and may require an electrician to leave or reschedule jobs they’re currently working on. Scheduling work on holidays or during periods of high customer demand, like after a major storm, will also lead to higher rates or extra fees.
The cost to repair your TV antenna is around $200 for the average homeowner. However, charges could be as low as $60 or as high as $450. Factors such as multidirectional or unidirectional, indoor or outdoor, and amplified or non-amplified all play an essential role in determining the cost of your repair. For example, outdoor antennas cost more on average to repair than indoor ones, much like amplified antennas cost more to repair than unamplified ones.
