My son removed an old ceiling fan and almost finished installing the new one. However, he needed…read morelonger screws to install a larger fan and was unsure if he could use the same box in accordance with the county building code. I called for an estimate and explained the situation. The man (perhaps the owner) was very nice. He said it was $95 an hour with a one-hour minimum, but since the job was pretty much complete, it could be less. He sent his guys over to my son's house. They started the job without a callback, for the estimate is the charge. They did not change out the box and only used longer screws. They were there for 40 minutes, mostly just chit-chatting with my son. They told him he did all the work already. I called the next day to pay over the phone, and the woman said it was $135 or $145. She said they claimed they were there for an hour and a half. That's an absolute lie. They also said they spent that time "showing the homeowner how to use the remote." Are they kidding? I paid the amount and now know never to use them again.

Since we didn't have any electrician recommendations, I naturally referenced yelp and automatically noticed all the positive reviews but what really stood out to me was the quick response time MacPhee had! I had never used the "get a quote" feature on yelp until this and I will definitely be using that more often! It walks you through your problem step by step and even allows you to use photos. The business then will reply with an estimate. Mark (the owner) responded within the hour. I then called him and we got an appointment scheduled. Him and his son, Connor showed up and they were both super friendly and went straight to work! They were able to address the issue and fix it within 30 mins or so. He explained to me what had happened and how he corrected it. His service call fee is $110. These guys are very kind and professional. I would recommened them to anyone who needs an electrician. They texted me when they're on their way also which I like. I'm a stay at home mom with a toddler so anytime the phone rings I never answer because I can't hold a conversation with all the noise.

Todd is great, and highly recommended!…read more I installed an electric heater in my garage to combat freezing pipes, but it was 240v so I needed help wiring it up. Out of all the companies that came out, Todd took the time to understand what I was doing, check out the access and get a good idea of the scope of the job, and gave me a good price based on what he saw and what we discussed. Some companies came in waaaay over what Todd quoted, but most were right around the same price. I went with R3 because Todd seemed very knowledgeable, took the time necessary to understand exactly what needed to be done, and he just genuinely seems like a good dude and left me with a great impression. Also, in the end he completed the job quickly and efficiently.

I would not recommend Shine Electric…read more I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience was so disappointing that I feel obligated to warn other homeowners. I specifically hired a licensed, insured electrical contractor because I wanted the job done correctly and wanted the company to stand behind its work. Before the installation, I spent TWO WEEKS researching and purchasing the perfect ceiling fans. I probably purchased 20-25 different fans from Home Depot, Lowe's, manufacturer websites, and other retailers before finally narrowing them down to the seven that matched my home. I wanted them all to match, have remotes, Bluetooth capability, the correct downrods, and waterproof ratings for my outdoor patio. I spent countless hours opening boxes, comparing finishes, making returns, and exchanging fans until everything was exactly right. Not one person from Shine Electric--not the technician, not the office, not the owner--ever told me there was a requirement that the fans have a specific UL/ETL certification in order for the company to warranty the installation. Instead, I found out AFTER the installation had already begun. The technician had already cut a hole in my ceiling and started the first installation before stopping and informing me that most of my fans supposedly did not meet the certification requirement, meaning Shine Electric would install them but would not stand behind their work. That conversation should have happened BEFORE I spent two weeks shopping. It should have been discussed during the estimate. It should have been written on the quote. It should have been emailed. It should have been texted. It should have been mentioned during any of our phone calls. Instead, it was mentioned only after my ceiling already had a hole cut into it. At that point, I told them not to install the remaining indoor fans if they weren't willing to warranty the work. Originally the quote was around $1,700-$1,800 for: * Seven ceiling fan installations * Installing an outdoor electrical receptacle * Patio ceiling fans Once five of the seven fan installations were removed, the price only dropped a few hundred dollars. Then another surprise came. I assumed the patio fans would replace the existing patio light fixtures, just like the bedroom fans replaced existing light fixtures. Instead, the technician informed me they planned to install entirely new ceiling boxes in different locations--including directly over my grill. Who puts a ceiling fan over a grill? That location made absolutely no sense for how we actually use our patio. Again, this was never discussed during the estimate. Because a hole had already been cut and work had already begun, I felt stuck finishing the remaining work. In the end, I paid approximately $1,100 for: * ONE patio ceiling fan * ONE outdoor electrical receptacle Had I known that from the beginning, I never would have hired Shine Electric for just that scope of work. After the installation, I contacted the owner and explained how disappointed I was. To his credit, he admitted the technician should have informed me about the certification requirement from the beginning. While I appreciated that acknowledgment, the responsibility doesn't stop with the technician. The company had multiple opportunities to communicate this requirement before I spent weeks shopping for fans and before work ever started. Then, to make matters even more confusing, about a week later I received a Thumbtack message from the owner referencing an updated amount of approximately $740--even though I had already paid the technician approximately $1,100 on the day of the job. No one ever contacted me to explain the discrepancy or whether I had been overcharged or was due a refund. The entire experience was filled with poor communication, changing expectations, surprise requirements, and pricing that never seemed transparent. If you're hiring professionals, you should not be learning critical installation requirements halfway through the job. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend Shine Electric based on my experience.

I found this company on Thumb Tack. I submitted a request and was contacted quickly. The gentleman that called told me how to check the breaker before he came so he didn't have to charge me.

The other company that contacted us from Thumb Tack stated thag he would charge me $189.00 to assess the issue. After I already told him thag I could see the breaker flipped. We will definitely do business with this company in the future for our home and rental property.
