We hired Scott Kiel Electric for a kitchen remodel and a panel upgrade. After taking a bunch of…read morequotes, they seemed liked they cared the most about doing a great job and they were actually the most affordable. This, combined with the quality of work that we ended up with have resulted in our highest recommendation. Nathanial found and corrected so many issues that the previous installer (who was either not an electrician or a terrible one) had made. He made sure our house was safe and took the time to show and explain to us clearly any issues that arose. Nathanial is the best and you can tell how much he cares about his work. I think our house had one of the worst electrical situations possible, and I think it would be rare to find other electricians in the state who could have handled the job as expertly as Nathanial and Scott did. Every inspector that came to our house also commented on how nice a job they did!

I'm an out of state owner who recently inherited a rental duplex…read more I called Helping Hands because of their sweet name, yelp rating and proximity, to start on my list of electrical needs as we remodel and update the property on our latest monthly visit. I wasn't aware of their 'up front pricing' contracts when I scheduled them. I thought it would be time and materials. After an hour of discussion and prioritizing, and putting their heads together, Helping Hands offered two eye watering quotes for what they thought they could accomplish in that day from my list for the two sides. I was free to accept or decline them and call someone else if needed. I wasn't expecting that - I expected a bunch of the work done from my list that day, with more on a subsequently scheduled day. I felt a bit blindsided, but needed the work done and didn't have time to call anyone else. The work that was done seemed to be done VERY well. However, they finished one side earlier than anticipated, but too late to start the other, and left at 3:30. Apparently if it's not on the quote, they can't start, won't start anything else. I had soooo many piddly things on my list like changing out the color and checking outlets and switches that could have been started and completed in that extra hour, but they weren't on the quote. I was told they would adjust the price on the quote because they didn't have as many complications as they thought. They adjusted the price, I expressed my concerns and we decided to part ways after the whole experience. So bottom line, if you've got lots of time and money, and you're on the property 24/7 and you want great quality work, call Helping Hands. But if you need to maximize your time with limited funds, and you need a lot of piddly stuff as well as big things done, this might not be the company for you. It wasn't for me.

I talked with the technician and explained that I needed a service call because I couldn't figure it out. He gives me a friendly suggestion to look for a "hidden" second GFCI, and voila there it is. I reset the 2nd one, and all is well. Point of the story is that they could have just scheduled a service call, but they were friendly enough to help me figure out the problem without me needing to wait (and pay the-stupid-tax for an obvious problem that wasn't really a problem - I won't deny it). Sure, they have better things to do than make an "idiot" call that can be fixed in 30 seconds. Nonetheless, I consider the fact that they gave me their advice "great". And so my 5 star in the review.
