I finally found A-American, and they were great. The solved all my problems and gave me a really thorough knowledge about everything. I had them hang two sconces in the bedroom, and fix an overhead light that was not working correctly. They did good work, and gave me a ton of knowledge about my electrical system that is invaluable. Great people. The technicians they sent were top of the line. Their service truck was really well stocked. They had everything they needed. I checked out their van. It was impressive. Good people make all the difference in the world. They are a well run company with excellent technicians. The techs seemed to like the business as much as I do. I like that when the company recognizes their biggest asset is their people. Not cheap, but fair pricing. I got more than I paid for, for sure. Well satisfied. I am delighted by their service and will call them next time I need help.

The team was able to come out very quickly--next day, I believe--and provide an exact cost for the work. It was a fair price, given their responsiveness. I appreciated how quickly they were able to work, and their level of professionalism. You may pay a slight premium for the services at A-American Electric, but for that premium you are getting timely/transparent service, and a high degree of professionalism.

This fellow is terrific. Can do just about anything and superbly too. Robert (ably supported by his son) fixed two gates that had not been working properly, assembled a chair, TV stand, and birdbath, got our old TV working properly again, affixed two large mirrors and a clock to the walls, and precisely measured, placed our pictures and artwork throughout our new home. He's intelligent, professional, super kind and understanding, and charges an acceptable amount. Can't say enough about Robert other than we're glad he's out there because we know we'll need, want to use him again! In fact, we just thought of two things.

828 Electric was recommended by neighbors on NextDoor with almost all mentioning Joel, the owner…read more Joel sent a guy named Michael to my house to do the quote. I showed him around the house and talked to him about my wiring needs for every room except the kitchen, which had been done by a licensed electrician a year earlier as part of a kitchen remodel. As we walked around the house, he said he was going to rewire the kitchen, even though it had already been done. He didn't really give a reason. I took him to the crawlspace after that where he discovered some questionable wiring. A week and a half passed and still no quote was sent to me so I contacted Joel and 2 to 3 days later spoke with Michael, who called me to say he would have it the next day but it ended up coming a few days later. The quote was at the high end and just a lump sum with very little detail. I responded a few days later with an email asking for detail and a breakout of the kitchen that I didn't want to pay for twice but didn't hear from him again until the following week. Communication was very poor. Because I was new to the area I posted on the NextDoor app asking people if not receiving any detail with a quote was a common occurrence for Western NC. Many people responded that it was not and that they wouldn't accept a quote like that (I did not mention 828 electric in my post). When Michael finally called me after days had passed once again, he stated that providing a lump sum without detailed parts and labor was the way they did things, and no one had ever asked him for more detail (apparently I was the first in all the years they'd been in business). I found that hard to believe but didn't really know what to say. He said that he wanted to rewire the kitchen because of the questionable wiring in the crawlspace but when he told me he was including the kitchen in his quote, he hadn't yet seen the questionable wiring so that was patently not true. He continued the call in a this is "my way or the highway" tone instead of looking for a middle ground regarding detail. Of course I didn't use them and I would not recommend this company to anyone.

To book an appointment and place an order while you are sitting there with your consultant, it was…read morea very pleasant experience. Timely followup is hard to come by. The people that work the front desk are very nice and helpful, but to get to your consultant takes an act of congress. My consultant is either sick, on vacation, out of the showroom for training, or "catching up from being out of the office". Over and over again. Repeated emails, calling the showroom to speak with someone else only leads to them giving your consultant a message to call you which is not prioritized. It can take weeks to get a response and get your choices ordered. I didn't want to buy from Lowes or Home Depot bc warranty work is hard to deal with (in my experience). If you order from Ferguson online, you are at the mercy of contract delivery and installation people, so you have to go through the showroom. Thank heavens my appliances are all ordered now - painful process. I only dealt with one showroom consultant and it may be different with others. The delivery manager, after a snafu with scheduling for the first delivery and in response to my survey results, personally called me and gave me his cell number in the event I had any further deliveries - which I did and they were seamless.
