Thank you for your review of our performance. I apologize again for the confusion with the invoicing - our intent was to show your pre-paid amount from our Store Front Offer, then list any additional labor and materials after that. Your feedback has helped us clarify our method for billing in that type of circumstance. Thanks! Sincerely, Brent D. Yauchler The Electrician, Inc. 608-434-4977 [email protected]

Dave was great. He was on time, laid down drop cloths under the work area and under his area of travel in the house. He wore booties to make sure he didn't track any dirt or insulation. Dave noticed that the fixture box was not up to code and that it should have a brace backing it. He installed that, moved the fixture 8 inches to be centered appropriately, checking with a laser level. This job required attic work as well, which was tackled with no issues. Some wiring abnormalities surfaced, which he corrected as well. Everything was done in a timely fashion while still being very personable. Email correspondence with the office staff was prompt and clear, as was convenience of scheduling. All appropriate parties were kept in the loop and communication lines were efficient. We may require some recessed lighting to be added to our kitchen in the future and will most definitely have The Electrician put in a bid.
Description of Work: Moved and replaced out of code box for fixture over dining table, removed body of ceiling fan, installed new fixture, replaced drywall.

Electrician boss not only replied to my email but even checked out my blog, very personable. Eletrician serviceman (Dave) arrived slightly late but also stayed late to accomodate it past their usual stop time on a Friday. All questions were answered; outlets were placed exactly where needed, and were of a high quality. Technician was friendly to small curious children. Technician accidentally broke a wine bottle that was sitting on a table -- tipped over -- mentioned it to his boss and I believe we incurred additional $20 off for it. Overall work and experience was excelelent and would recommend highly to anyone in Madison area looking for professional and courteous service.
Description of Work: Added additional electrical outlets to my basement

We had a ceiling lamp that was a fan that had shorted out. We had him take out the old fan and install a new one. He replaced a dimmer switch at no additional cost. He also looked at our heater and told us we needed the heater rewired. The service was really good, I was very happy with him. He did a great job cleaning up after the work.

Overall, I was very happy with their work. They left the place clean, and did a good job of explaining things. Dave even helped me figure out where to move the dining room light fixture. My only disappointment was that I had asked them to install an extra outlet in the bedroom, which they forgot. They also forgot to put a rough patch around one of the outlets they installed, so the jagged edge of the hole was visible even with the outlet cover on. The bill did come in well over their bid due to factors out of their control, but Brent was very responsive to my concerns and even gave me a discount.
Description of Work: We had a great deal of knob and tube, so the electricians had to rewire much of the house. They also installed a fan in the bathroom.

Thank you for the review of the electrical services we provided at your home. The work turned out to be a bit more that we could determine from our original assessment, but we were glad you were willing to allow us to correct all the faulty and unsafe wiring. I do apologize for failing to install the additional outlet and not rough-patching the location you mentioned - we would be happy to come back and finish those items if you'd like - just give me a call any time!

We did not interact with him directly during the service, but our tenant reported that he was very professional and courteous. It's an older house and the wiring in that section is a little tricky. The Big Deal we purchased was for one hour of work, but it took three to get the old light moved and put in a better one. He got the work done to our tenant's satisfaction, which was the most important thing. My husband would have liked a call after he assessed the situation to find out what his plan was, but we were not explicit about that, so it's not the electrician's fault. Overall, we are pleased with this provider and would use him again. The work has held up well.
Description of Work: He installed a new exterior light on a rental property and moved the existing light to a different corner of the house.

Every project I've completed with Brent and The Electrician, Inc. has been an excellent experience. Brent's first trip out was very, very short notice (same day) and he still came out and fixed some old wiring preventing me from installing a ceiling fixture. He was pleasant, professional and efficient. Shawn, one of the other electricians, came out a couple of weeks later to install some sconces and a new outlet in my bathroom. He also cleaned up some messy old wiring found behind some paneling that was coming through my hardwood floors. He, too, was very professional and efficient. Chris completed the installation of a very old, rewired fixture for me just today. He, too, was prompt, efficient and professional. The Electrician clearly hires excellent employees who seem to genuinely enjoy their work and the people they work with. They've been respectful of my home and my time every time they've worked on projects here and I cou. To date, I don't think I've had a better experience with a service provider. Thank you!

Went pretty good. They were on time. They ran into a problem with the new fixture and they worked with the vendor to get a replacement fixture that same day. They also installed a wall sconce with no issues.
Description of Work: Replaced a old fluoresent ceiling light in kitchen with a new lighting fixture. The new fixture had a problem with a part and the service tech (Chris) went above and beyond the call of duty to get the bad fixture replaced with a good fixture.

I recently moved into a 1956 house that needed electrical updating. This was another visit by Dave, the master electrician of The Electrician, Inc., and true to his title he did another masterful job of correcting the electrical inadequacies of my home and bringing the system up to par. Nothing is too challenging for him; he knows the field. He's also great to work with and I will continue to call him as improvement is needed in my house.
Description of Work: Replaced GFCI/single pole switch/combo device. Changed out two prong receptacle to three prong for two electric fire logs in fireplace. Changed light fixture on porch. Changed two-prong receptacle for three prong in guest bedroom. He also went to Menard's to pick up needed supplies that I didn't know I would need (new light fixture and other) when I set up the appointment.

Technician was here within two hours of my call. He was courteous, friendly and very knowledgeable. He removed the light fixture for service because it is high and awkward to reach in front hall of split level home. Not only did he fix the socket, but he replaced glass panels that had come out of the fixture in the past, and then graciously allowed me time to clean all the glass before he re-hung it. It was a totally satisfying experience from my first telephone call to a friendly office representative to the end of the appointment. I will gladly recommend this service to friends and neighbors.

After correcting the problems with the outdoor lighting circuit, Dave explained that the problem may not be resolved and we'd have to wait and see. Subsequently the breaker tripped again and then a couple of the lights on the circuit went out completely. Dave returned and investigated further and discovered that an underground splice had probably failed. The wiring has been in the ground since about 1980 and has probably failed due to age and soil conditions. Dave was able to temporarily correct the problem and now all but one of the lights work. In the spring we'll replace the entire system. This work required spending 2.5 hours outside in 15 degree weather. Throughout this unpleasant task Dave remained cheerful and kept me informed of his progress and findings.
Description of Work: 1. Installed HDMI cable outlet in wall and fished the cable from another area. Cable and outlet provided by owner. 2. Investigated problem with breaker tripping at random for exterior lighting. Found some problems and corrected them.
