I had a recent service visit for a ceiling fan that stopped working. The technician inspected my…read morecircuit breaker panel and removed the plate on the wall switch. After that inspection he refused to continue diagnosing the problem unless I paid either for an annual membership (over $300) or a one‑time diagnostic fee (over $200). I declined, the technician called his manager, and the manager instructed him not to proceed. No fees were charged. The technician apologized that this policy was not disclosed when I scheduled the appointment. This was unprofessional and felt like a bait‑and‑switch. A diagnostic visit should not turn into a hard sell on the doorstep without clear disclosure up front. I will not use Chesapeake Electric again and I would not recommend them. They were a huge waste of time.

BLUF: Easy to schedule, friendly and communicative electrician and work performed as expected…read more I loathe hiring anyone to do anything because people are so unreliable. But frankly, I am a former DIYer who has gotten really lazy so when it came time to install a junction box and ceiling fan in a guest bedroom I called Chesapeake Electric. Phew, much to my relief, Chesapeake Electric was great to work with - scheduling the job was easy, the electrician showed up on time, he was very communicative, the work performed was great and it was easy to pay. Also, the electrician did a great job cleaning up and hauling away the trash from the ceiling fan. It feels good to finally have a ceiling fan in our guest bedroom and to have a reliable electrician in our contacts.

He tested many outlets and looked at the circuit panel to determine the issue. He explained the problem and provided a solution.

He is very thorough in his work. He takes the time to explain the issue and go over the solution with you. He is on time, very courteous, very knowledgeable and even cleans up afterwards. The price was very reasonable. I will definitely use Selvin for all my electrical needs.

I'll definitely be contacting them again for other projects because of their pricing. Marvin installed two outdoor lantern porch lights and resolved a power issue, he was great. They even used stronger bolts than what came in the box due to the size and weight of the light. So, there's no skimping on materials and the work, just did the job right.

Each time their price was the lowest, and one of the fastest, if not the fastest estimated times to complete the job. When the county came out to sign off on the panel work, the inspector spoke very highly of the quality of work, and even said that after inspecting their work 100's of times Haas had never failed to impress him. Chris and his team are consummate professionals, they keep their word, does not try to upsell you services you don't need. Leaves the job site cleaner than when he got there. Don't go anywhere else, this is the electrician you have been looking for.

I explained the job to the two techs that came out and they were super receptive and professional. We discussed the job and options were great. Then I was quoted a job that was assessed at greater than my houses square footage with a job that was not at all what we discussed. I understand being careful and thorough, but I felt like I went to a Toyota dealership and was only quoted Maserati prices. Inquired regarding modifications to the quote and the answer I was given was "this is why my boss told me to tell you". I called another company who is a master electrician and is doing the job they quoted me 12k for 3k. I was bummed because electric is something I want done right and was hoping to give this local company business but will never recommend them.

When I called our home warranty service they assigned the job to Bossom & Son Electric. When I called the home warranty company it was after hours on Thursday night and I knew the company was closed on Fridays and weekends, according to their website. However, my call was it nice with a text and I was advised they would be coming out on Monday morning. I was contacted by the technician Monday morning and advised that he would be here within two hours. He arrived in the time slot he had promised and was able to quickly diagnose the problem and fix it. He arrived wearing a mask and was very pleasant and friendly, yet professional and knowledgeable. I will definitely make note of the name of the company and, if we need to have an electrician come out to our Home Warranty Service again, I will request that it be them.

Evan identified the cut line (probably done by aeration), spliced in a new line, and made a surgical trench, no grass damage, to run the line. Everything was repaired, all landscaping lights are now working, and all faster than I had expected, which saved on the hourly cost. Again, super work Evan!

While I've had four previous jobs completed by Bailey & Shipp--including a ceiling-fan installation in my master bedroom--with exceptional results each time, this price was far beyond reasonable expectations. To compare, I obtained a separate quote from another company for $880 for the same work. Unfortunately, the drastic discrepancy means Bailey & Shipp has lost my business. I value quality, but a nearly 5x markup simply isn't justifiable.
