Had a guy come out in August to give me a quote to completely replace the AC and furnace on my 2nd…read morefloor. He did his thing, we had a chat, seemed like a nice guy, said he couldn't give me a quote immediately as his laptop was dead. Fair enough. Told me to expect it either over the weekend or on the Monday. No quote was forthcoming. I followed up 3 times over the next few weeks to try and get the quote. Finally, to give one last opportunity before I wrote a review, I called 2 weeks ago and was told the technician would call me back that day. Not surprisingly I heard nothing. I can only assume that the tech is assuming this job isn't worth his time as he'll make more elsewhere. Really wanted it to work out with these guys. I know a couple of guys who know the owner/manager and they have alot of good things to say about him. Unfortunately I can't even get a quote.

I hired them to link a generator to my house and to fix two ceiling fans. They provided me with an…read moreestimate - which I paid $196.73 for. This charge was not applied to my bill. I then decided it would be best to replace the fan rather than fix them. The first time they came out, they removed the fans but couldn't install the new fans as the down pipe (I provided) was the wrong size. Nothing was done for the generator as the needed part was the wrong size (they provided). The second time, they installed the fans, but again did nothing for the generator as the replacement part also didn't fit. I was then informed they couldn't do the generator job as described in the estimate and the new estimate was now $300 more than quoted. Essentially it took 3 trips out here for them to figure out what was actually needed to install the generator. The estimate, I paid for, was useless. I was then billed $1,587 for the fan installation. This included a second trip fee as they had to come back because the fan down pipe I provided was incorrect. I reminded them they had to return anyway as their part was wrong, but they keep telling me I caused the return trip. They finally split the cost with me. I reviewed the invoice carefully and found numerous questionable charges and errors - 75 minutes of supervisor reviewing project with staff @$109/hr, billing assistant time at electrician rate, charging for lunch time, assembling a defective ladder. The final bill to install to ceiling fans in ceilings was $1,321, $266 more than their original invoice. Next time I will rent scaffolding and do it myself.

I wish there were more stars for this…read more Storytime: When Duke Energy upgraded our electric meter, they broke the base, and we experienced worsening brownouts and then blackouts for a few days. When we called Duke Energy to come out, they found the meter was sparking (AKA arc'ing), so they shut off part of our power (one "phase"), so half our lights were out and we could not run appliances, although we had heat and could run a cord to a working outlet to our 'fridge. BUT we had to repair the base (The box your meter sits on either outside or inside your house) at our cost! (We were able to try and submit a claim, which actually was rejected due to a Duke subcontractor did the work ... also,we found out the base might have been failing for a long time before the meter replacement.) First, I tried a company in Durham, because they could come out that night. They came out, and gave a $1,200 estimate to: get a permit, parts, replace the meter base. Fine. But, the person the Durham firm sent was scary in many ways ... I thought he might either electrocute himself or damage my house. Clearly he had no idea what he was doing, from watching and talking with him. My "BS detector" was going crazy. I wanted someone else, and told the firm to hold off while I got a second opinion. Meanwhile, a day wasted with no power in many rooms in the house. I called all the local electricians and everyone was too busy for weeks! Then I tried Bonneville. I emailed them at night and got a call in two hours to schedule! I spoke with Brad and he clearly understood the situation and made me much more confident than the other firm. At Brad's suggestion, I left a key for him to come inside the house so no one had to miss work. At about 10:30 that morning, he called me to tell me he was able to REPAIR the broken meter base, not replace it. He patiently explained EVERYTHING about what happened and why ... literally spent 15 minutes explaining and talking about it. Such an easy experience! The best part? We were only charged $233 for the repair parts and labor, vs. the $1,200 to replace the meter base. Advice: Bring your A game to Bonneville. Be ready to clearly explain your problem in an intelligent way, be a good listener, and you will be rewarded by the best service experience possible. HIGHLY recommended. Richard Stern, Carrboro NC.

I wanted to get two electrical outlets installed outside and switches by the front door. I looked up the parts myself and it came out to around $100 in parts. They wanted to charge me $705.00 to do the work which results in about $605 labor for two hours of work. I asked them if they could simply drop the $65.00 dispatch fee for my home being more than 20 miles away and told the guy giving me the estimate they would still make $540 labor, he told me "no". He also said "You won't find anyone else to do this job any cheaper" which was a little rude. I called and got a few more estimates and got another company to do the job for $500, saving myself $205 dollars. Keep checking Google Maps and look at company reviews, then call a few. Sometimes other companies are willing to work with you a little more and give you a better price. While Express Electrical is fast, they have high prices and don't seem to want to work with you any.

I gave them one start because there is no way to post a negative number of stars…read more CMC is a miserable company. The salesman said whatever he had to say to get the sale: CMC would take care of everything including calling 811 to get lines and cables marked, and that we would be without power for no more than four hours. This company forgot to call 811 to get the lines and cables marked, for about a month. When they finally got the lines marked, they still managed to cut the Spectrum cable. They installed the new electric panel and then told us we were responsible for the 3 inch gaps around it. That's not what we signed up for. Finally, they took care of this. The power was off about seven hours, not the four we were told. And then, after they installed the generator, they forgot to turn the gas back on. The generator, which was installed a week late, seems to work, but this installation has been a head-banging experience. Except for the salesman's visit, CMC never showed up on time, up to an hour late, without even the courtesy of a call. According to CMC staff, the longest delay was due to their inability to schedule properly. The supervisor, for example, was due to be here by 10AM, but he was late because he had to attend a service meeting until about 10AM. He got here almost at 11. We had adjusted our schedule around the appointment they had given us, and then had to cancel appointments in the afternoon because of his delay. This supervisor told my wife to read the instructions in the orange book CMC provided; we never got an orange book. We got no orange book, but an orange piece of paper that said to said to download the app and follow instructions to connect the generator to the internet. When they're getting paid over $13,000, they should be competent, professional and live up to their commitments. They might also be somewhat more helpful hooking this generator to the internet. I will never use CMC again except warranty work on the generator. Since Generac doesn't screen is franchisees very well, I won't use Generac again.

This was the only electrician that I called that charged per hour and not just a flat free per service. I like this way better because you pay for how complicated the job actually is, not just a number they pre set. They let me know what the max they thought the job would take, over estimated it so I could know what the worst case scenario would be cost wise. I was able to get an appointment fairly quickly for the next week so I scheduled it. The guys who came on install day were friendly, one was an assistant, they worked together well. They didn't have one of the parts they needed so they stoped the clock while they waited for it to arrive so I wouldn't be charged for the waiting time. All in all it took well under their max time frame and they did a great job. At the end of the day this ended up being the most affordable of all the quotes I had gotten. They even asked for a vacuum to make sure they cleaned up any plaster dust left behind. I appreciate that, I have had other electricians in who leave a mess and don't think twice about it. Not these guys, they want to ensure they leave the place as clean as it was when they walked in. My only suggestion would be to setup an online bill pay system, would make things easier! I will definitely be calling Wright Brothers again!
