I needed an extra outlet - so I could plug in a central vacuum power head - and it wasn't in the…read moreright spot. So I call "another" company that had good Yelp ratings and explain the job. Simple enough - cut a hole in the drywall next to the stud, hang a single gang box, connect the power wires that are already in the wall one foot away, splice and cap, push it back in and done. Hour job, max. Ground floor, tile floor, easy peasy. Price? Well, that will be a "minimum charge" of $225. What? Really? Go back to Yelp and Next Door. Read all the reviews - hmm, Dwell Electric. Oh wait, I know Jason B, and it's his dad, and they are good people. Check that box. So I call and get Paul on the line. He's in the middle of a job, so he asks to call me back. He does. He can be over not tomorrow, but Wednesday. Does that work? Of course it does. 1pm? Perfect. Paul shows up 15 minutes early. Gets greeted by two large German Shepherds, whom he loves and pets and who follow him like trained assistants. Takes a look, says yes, easy job to do. Price? $125 - perfect. Let's go. Opens the wall - wait, their are wires but they aren't hot. What? Checks all the breakers and panels. Hmmm. Apparently when the house was built no one bothered to connect the power for all the 'direct connect central vacuum lines". Darn. That explains why the direct connect wouldn't work and why I'm having an extra outlet installed....Oh well - Paul's like, let's just connect power from over "here" (light switches) in the wall and do some extra work and wiring and maneuvering - ok, no problem, let me know if the cost goes up...Nope. No worries. Job completed in 30 minutes tops. Looks great. Still $125. Paul is an honest business person who charges a fair price and can handle anything from outlets to can lighting installation to complete home projects. He works almost exclusively in the Encinitas - Carlsbad area, so he's local and available and has two other guys just like him at Dwell. Give them a call and you'll be glad you did. I guarantee it, and so do my dogs.

I wanted to love this company so bad and their reviews were great. I didn't have the same…read moreexperience everyone else had so I'm writing this review to warn people of all the extra fees/expenses if the job isn't large. I had them do a large project (Fairview) for me at a Duplex in Tower Grove. They came out several times and met with my property manager (no service fees at all). I called them a few times after the big project only to be nickel and dimed by $190 service fees per call with no work. One project was at Fairview which they had just completed but charged me extra indicating it was "different". I can't prove that but sounds very suspicious when the entire basement was rewired. I called them about electric going out in a kitchen at a Duplex on Alaska. They went over there, was there for 10 minutes and called and said the breakers overloaded and sent me a $221 invoice with a several thousand dollar bid to fix it (I later got a bid elsewhere for $700). What they will say. The large project they saved me from tens of thousands of dollars on a full rewire (isn't that your job?), "This cost me gas, this cost me time." They had no problem spending the gas and time to get the large projects only to nickel and dime the smaller ones. Just for your info. Beware and do your homework. Contractors are getting out of control.

LVG does not care about their customers and do not take accountability for inadequate work!…read moreLVG did required electrical remediation in my condo and many others in the complex. Shortly after, electrical failures continue to occur (outlets suddenly not working, flickering lights, etc). This is happening across condos that they services. Upon bringing their attention to the matter, they refuse to address the issues without charging a ridiculous 2 hour fee minimum (even if the issues take 20 minutes to fix). They are not taking accountability for the issues that are occurring as they should if they really hold the value of providing exceptional work. Not to mention how absolutely RUDE the owner, Ashley, is when calling to discuss these concerns. Even with evidence that all work was not thoroughly inspected, they refuse. These remediations cost THOUSANDS of dollars, and they can't come look at a damn outlet. DO NOT USE! Or ask for a guarantee that If something goes wrong within 1 year of service, they will be responsible for fixing! I will also be reporting this business to the Better Business Bureau for completing inadequate/poor work, price gouging and complete lack of customer service.
