These guys are great. Real pros that know their stuff, and not afraid to do the real work. They…read moretook the time to understand the problem, did their investigation, very thorough and took the time to explain the issue. I am no plumber, but these folks are, and they were gracious with their time, and explained it all, and provide options, pros vs cons, best practices, and did not once pressure me to make a decision. Mark, Eddy, and Mike did a superb job. They had no bias, and gave me all the facts and options to make my own decision. At the end of the day, I feel like I can trust them. Real pros. Arrived when they said they would, did what they promise and even more. Fantastic experience. If you want a plumber you can trust.. look no further.

I requested TE to come out and diagnose why an existing circuit was not getting power. Instead of…read morejust fixing the circuit, I agreed to a new panel for my house since it was 60 years old. The price I was quoted was over 12k. I felt the electrician on my job, Jason S. was very high pressure in his tactics and told me I needed to decide that day, or lose potential discounts. I had also been without a kitchen for over 30 days, so I agreed to the work. The next day Jason and an apprentice come out to start the job. They take one whole day to remove and replace the new panel, no problem. Here is where it goes downhill. On the second day of work, Jason and another apprentice came out and instead of prioritizing the circuit I hired him for, they start installing the hardwired smoke detectors Dekalb county allegedly requires. This took all day! By about 4 pm, I asked if he was going to get the outlet done so I could use my dishwasher and he replied "I guess if I stay here all night". I said I guess thats what you got to do then, and they were here til nearly 8 pm. Then he made several other unprofessional comments about staying late. Jason never came back to my job. A new Electrician came out on Monday, Jason said he had an emergency job. The part where they earned this rating comes when I found out my pool motor circuit was not working on the new GFCI circuit. I explained to them it originally was on a two pole circuit and now they had it on two single poles. It was drawing 240v and they had the model number and should have researched the wiring on their own as professionals. Rather than listen to me, I had to wait all day for the new electrician (with Jason on the phone) come up with a new quote to fix which included trenching up and re-wiring my entire pool, ANOTHER 5 THOUSAND DOLLARS! I was livid. I started looking into this and it turns out I was right, it just needed a 2 pole GFCI. I talked to the second electrician the next day and told him I want to talk to a supervisor or manager. I got a call later in the day from Jeffrey who was going to look into it and get back to me the same day. He did not. He did call me the next morning and agreed to send one of his best guys out to install a 2 pole and see if that solves the problem. Well guess what, it did! And, I didn't have to pay another 5K. I expected to hear back from Jeffrey again to ensure the job was to my satisfaction as you should on a service recovery. I did not. I feel lied to, and that I was robbed and almost taken needlessly for thousands more, had I not done my research which should not be necessary as a layperson. I understand from TE employees the Electricians control the cost, and they get a commission from it. Unfortunately, I paid for an electricians summer vacation because I trusted him. Luis L and Nathan the electricians at TE, thank you! Micah, Gavin, Phillip the apprentices, thank you too! Jeffrey I thank you for doing the minimum by ensuring what I paid for was completed. Jason, no thank you at all. You've sowed distrust in professionals and your industry with your practices.

Wow. Reading the "response" from Juleus Preston honestly made me laugh…read more According to him, I am somehow not only a landlord, but secretly living in disguise, and personally plotting against hardworking electricians. Maybe next time he'll say I'm part of the FBI too. Here are the actual facts: * He came, did no testing whatsoever, and replaced a breaker that was perfectly fine. * When it didn't solve the issue, he demanded $200 anyway. * Then he tried to upsell me another $150 "detection fee." * The very same day, I found a real licensed electrician who did a proper test, discovered it was just a light, and fixed the whole thing for $200 total. Problem solved. And let's be real: which scammer pays in full? If I were scamming, I wouldn't have paid him a cent. I paid just to get rid of him and keep my tenant safe. As for "hiding my identity" -- of course I don't hand my personal details to dishonest scammers and haters. That's called protecting yourself. Instead of writing conspiracy theories about me, Mr. Preston should take that $200 and buy a $50 meter. It would save everyone a lot of trouble.

I just moved into a recently renovated home and couldn't power up a brand new dryer that had just…read morebeen delivered that morning. The delivery guys said that I had two days to figure out if the problem was the plug or the dryer was defective. If it was the dryer, they would pick it up and take it back and bring a replacement. I found Julius and explained the rush and he was here within 20 minutes! Not only did he show up fast and ready to get the job done, but he was so friendly and helpful. He diagnosed the problem as the plug, which wasn't wired correctly. He showed me as he fixed it. Plugged in the dryer, turned it on, it worked! So, I just wanted to again say "Thank you, Julius!"...I highly recommend TR & JP Handy Electricians.
