Two hours labor to replace two switches!
We hired Eco Electric to remove and replace our A/C and ceiling fan switches and to trouble shoot a ceiling fan. Before you hire them, ask questions! This is what we learned too late.
* They always send out two men, "for safety." We had a senior tech training an apprentice. We could hear him teaching and quizzing this young man, whose job was to remove the ceiling fan switch and replace it under observation, and to observe the tech while he switched out the A/C switch. (The apprentice later played around with the ceiling fan switch while the tech worked on the A/C switch after we had decided to just replace the fan at a later date, and the actual trouble-shooting was done. That was for his benefit, not ours.) Buyers beware: you will be charged for this training. Our bills states "two men @ $125.00 per hour, two hours."
* We were also told that their clock starts as soon as they get the call, as opposed to when they arrive at your home.
While the work done seems satisfactory, we believe that it is possible to find a one electrician who could have come and completed this work in one hour or less. We had been interested in an estimate for recessed lighting and replacing a ceiling fan, but we are not willing to pay $250 an hour for labor, and so will not use this company again. read more
