They were hired to install heat fans for our community shower rooms. From beginning to end, the quality was poor. From installing the wrong wires, to cutting our drywall and ceiling up to the point where it left hazardous gaps for residents and/or staff to electrocute themselves. If anything, this kind of work will chase possible residents out and lowers our value. There is no way that their employees can be proud of this work. Absolutely unacceptable.

I hired CW to rewire my bathroom during a total remodel. The bathroom was empty of everything and…read morethe walls were stripped down to the studs. Asked them to run a line and install a new GFI outlet, light switch, wiring for a vanity light, and a shower light, as well as remove old K&T wiring in the walls. When the team was working I was sitting in my home office working. They never asked me any questions or spoke to me about needs, but ended up cutting 7 large holes in my ceiling to run wiring despite the walls being open and accessible overhead. They mounted the outlet and light switch boxes too deep in the walls for drywall to be mounted flush. They did not remove all of the K&T wiring. And they damaged a pipe in my wall mounting the entire vanity light (again so deep in the wall I need to move it to have it work with the drywall). I asked to discuss the issues and they sent a project manager out, who admitted they should have done a better job with the light switch and outlet. He said they did not damage the pipe, except if they did damage it, it was only because it was old and brittle and it would have happened no matter what. And that the fine print in their estimates states they aren't responsible for damages from holes they need to cut to run wiring for lights. (Part of my ceiling plaster collapsed afterward.) Repairs after this for the pipe and replacing the ceiling with drywall ran ~$700. They took off the $50 "Trip Fee" from my invoice. Very frustrating and definitely won't be using again.

It was one of the coldest days this year and (due to some old shotty aluminum wiring) we lost complete power to our furnace. It was a weekend, so (of course) we could hardly find any electricians to even take our call. Then enter Red Beard Electrical. Matthew answered on the first ring, he was so kind, quick and well-informed. He advised me to call around as he had a full schedule that day, but told me to call him back and let him know if I was able to find someone. Well, all I was able to find was one place that wanted to charge me a $200 emergency fee (and that would be on top of the work). So, I called Matthew back to let him know. Even though he was booked up, he added extra hours to his work day to fit us in. When he got here he was worked quickly, explained everything that was going on (in terms I could actually understand), and didn't charge us an arm and a leg. I seriously can not recommend him highly enough. Not only did her get us out of a total bind, I feel like I have officially found "my electrician" we will certainly be using him for all of our future electrical needs and I hope you do too! Added Bonus: Matthew and his colleague where just really nice and kind guys with a great sense of humor.
