They try to provide good service but their prices are much higher than other area electricians. Sometimes two or three times higher. Best to compare costs before hiring them. They also encourage customers to join service programs which bill monthly fees regardless off whether they make service calls.

I've used Mel Carr for electrical work since I purchased my older (antique) home in Troy. It has…read moreneeded a lot of upgrading and the quotes have been reasonably priced, flexible (as in more than one option offered) and each option well explained. The work itself was done professionally and conscientiously, and the electricians are respectful of the space and leave it clean. So far they have done 5 jobs on this place and another is upcoming. Highly recommend.

The expansion of the electrical panel required them to cut into the finished basement knotty pine wall panelling. You'd never know they had to do that! Rob and his team did a meticulous job, were prompt, cleaned everything up and overall did a really terrific job. Ive used them several times in the past and will continue to use them. I will also recommend them wholeheartedly to anyone who needs this service. Patricia F

I called July 15th and was told the reason I didn't have a quote after a week was becuase "there were a lot of emergencies, and he -I assume the step father- would light a fire under his butt to get it done."

Since Kot was the installer I called them to come repair it. I was told they could not come until Jan. 3rd, over three weeks away. This was unacceptable as I could not get the driveway plowed with the wire in the way. I have removed them from my reliable contractors list and will not call them again. Apparently they don't take responsibility for their installations.

Well, at least it's four figures. So how did I find one? I trusted the most trustworthy plumber I know. And when he recommended Steve, that's who I called. I knew the job would be expensive, and Steve's estimate was in line with expectations. But the work was done quickly, and faster than expected, so in the end it cost a little less. We don't have much need for and electrician on an ongoing basis. But if I ever require the services of one again, I'm calling Steve.

I noted that they used La Gallez, and that the work was well done. As I moved in I wanted a good deal of the interior lighting replaced.

He's clearly in high demand, and I needed to make the appointments with ample notice. I would strongly recommend him.
