I recently purchased a new Tesla and went to their website to find contractors in my area that…read morecould install a charging station before my car arrived. Tim at Volt Electric was by far the most responsive and professional of the companies that replied. My installation area wasn't ideal - a carport in a condo development that had 0 previous charging station installs, but Tim was quick to come out for an estimate and assured me that the work could be done and at a fair price. From the planning phases to the actual install, Tim and his team were very communicative and always gave me the sense of security that the job would be done correctly. I can thankfully say that they delivered on their promise. The team at Volt Electric - especially Tim - were a pleasure to do business with and I would recommend them to anyone needing electrical work (especially Tesla charging installs). It's a relief to know that reliable, honest companies like Volt exist these days.

I had a bad experience with them. The owner had me running all over town trying to get parts and…read moreaccessories right before a big storm (Fern) that was expected to hit right on the day of the job. I told him why I needed to rearrange the electrical system in my house. The purpose for the indoor work was to hook-up a power generator and getting it up and running outside. He didn't tell me in advance what accessories I'd need to buy. I was charged for his time waiting for me to get the items. It was very frustrating because the stores didn't have what I needed and I had to drive all over town searching for it. I would not recommend doing business with them without first getting a written statement for all the work they plan to do and all of their charges in advance. Also, one of their workers spilled gasoline all over and I had to pay twice to fill my generator. He charged me almost $2,000 when his estimate was for only $1,000. He acted like hooking up a generator is not his job as an electrician, yet a handyman would not have known what to do because this required specialized knowledge, something only a licensed electrician would be qualified to know and do the job correctly and safely.

I was introduced to them through my home warranty company , many years ago,and have always found…read morethis company to be professional ,quick and excellent in their service. Andy always seems to respond quickly and I use them for my property management company because they always seem to get the job done quickly and at a more reasonable cost than most! When others give quotes I always like to get a quote from them too because I feel I can trust them to do it right the first time around!

Called this company out to install a breaker & an outlet for a kiln after the owner came out giving…read morethe estimate. The owner stated that they would rewire the kiln, WHICH AS A POTTER, as he stated that he was, HE SHOULD HAVE KNOWN THAT THAT WAS A BIG FAT NO NO!!!!!! They send out a technician that doesn't have the first clue as to what he was doing. He was looking at the panel for the generator not the house to hook it into. When I came down to the garage, he was just laughing at me and the situation which is not funny. When you screw up something like this it can state are fire which can burn down somebodies home. The guys that came out and did the generator did a great job but this was ridicules. Then when I called the office I was told that the technician can just do whatever they want in the job. Then PLEASE explain what the hell is an estimate for?

My electric panel, an old fuse box from the 1940's, started messing up and burning the big shotgun…read morefuses. Finally, it just stopped working, even after I replaced the big fuses. At 8:00 in the morning. I called Lee Lyda, and they had a crew out that day. My electric equipment was from the 1940's, so they had to replace a lot. I also allowed them to replace the feed-in, as it was trashed. They were kind enough to allow me to pay over time, as I have lived here a long time, and they knew my parents. YMMV. They were polite, decent, professional, and fast - had it done by 3 PM. I would recommend them to anybody.

Requested an update to garage wiring for an electric car charger. The house is older (1930s) and…read moreservice is old, etc. So, they did an update on the line to get it working properly for the detached garage. There were no suggested big ticket fixes for it, just a solid assessment of what was there and how to bring it up to the needed spec for the new e-car charger. Billing was easy. Pricing was fair. Service was prompt. Hard to ask for more.

I called Barrett heating and cooling on a Friday morning, when we woke up realizing our furnace was…read morenot working. A human being answered the phone, and I spoke directly to the technician. After explaining all the things we had tried, the technician told me he would call me back as soon as he had a time slot available, and would come by. Within two hours, I had a phone call telling me he could make a house call in 15 minutes. Brendan arrived promptly and assessed the furnace. He indicated he would need to step out to pick up a part, but that he would be back within the hour to repair it. And he was absolutely true to his word. The entire repair, from assessment to clean up, took less than two hours, and our furnace was back up and running. There aren't many repair places you can call who will send a service tech out the same day, and actually fix the problem same day. We were extremely pleased with their professionalism, and their timeliness. I would not hesitate to recommend them!

We would definately use him again.

Bob was exemplary in his service. I called on a Monday morning at 10am, and while he didn't make…read moreany promises, he arrived by 2pm to fix my dryer. I was worried that it was going to require a second visit and a second person to take the dryer down from its stackable location. But he was able to take it apart and worked diligently to get the job done. A piece of clothing had entered the drying vent, when I forgot to put the lint filter in place. It was nice to have a contractor who works for himself and not some big corporation. And so he finished in less than 2 hours and surprised me with a very reasonable bill. So I added on a small tip, and I would definitely call him for any other appliance needs that I might have. He was very knowledgeable and friendly. I had originally called Lowe's, and they put me in touch with a company that only provides 4 hour windows which means that you have to sit around all day waiting for them. And then, they managed to blow me off completely and close down the office by 2pm. So when I called to follow up, no one was available. They are called M&M, and I guess that they do work for Lowe's warranties products. So, I'm glad that I used yelp to find a different company.

I paid $175 for Bob to reconnect 2 wires. He was at my house for 10 minutes total, so probably 5…read moreminutes or less of work. He responded quickly and got it fixed but come on, that's insane. Then he suggested he was giving me a deal but reducing from the $225/hr rate. Realized I should have done that math - so should have only paid $37.5 for 10 minutes. You'd think especially during these times where we all have so many additional Costs due to storm - some extra kindness and generosity would be offered.
