David Turner Springfield Downtown…read more· 2 hr ago · Michael Christy DBA MC Electrical takes advantage of senior citizens. He charged $1680 for less than two hours labor and materials costing of less than $50. No advance estimate as advertised on his website His website promises to come to the home and diagnose the problem, and provide a "free on-site estimate . . . before any work begins." However, with us, he never discussed pricing in advance and provided no estimate prior to performing services. Here is our detailed experience. My wife, who is in her 70s called and told him that we had a bathroom exhaust fan that wasn't working and that we needed two GFCI's in the kitchen replaced. He arrived the next day with an assistant. The assistant went to the second floor to diagnose the fan problem. It turned out that the new timer switch that I had tried to install myself was not connected properly, and he had corrected the problem in minutes before even discussing it with us. While he was doing that, Michael went to the kitchen and promptly replaced the two GFCIs. They were done in less than an hour and Michael told us that they would send the bill and made arrangements for my wife to VENMO the money to him. When Michael subsequently emailed the invoice to us, My wife was shocked at the amount, but she, nonetheless VENMOed money before I had a chance to look at the invoice. The invoice included a $295 "service call"; $795 for the simple connection of the exhaust fan switch that took minutes; $590 for the installation of the two GFCIs; and a charge of $117.60 that was listed as a 7% tax on the $1,680 charges described above. Notably, Pennsylvania has has no tax on labor charges for real estate capital improvements such as the work performed here. As such, those tax charges are completely invalid and appear fraudulent. After-the-fact research showed that the very high end of the range that a reputable master election would charge for those services would be $560 including a service call charge and materials. When I called him about the bill, he said that if I had not "disrespected" him by getting angry, he would have "worked with us." This is not an honest contractor. My advice is to stay far away from MC Electrical.

PECO said we almost had a fire (they detected the heat from the device). When the previous electrician didn't respond, we got Joe's number from a friend. Joe called me back after hours in minutes, came out within an hour of our conversation AFTER hours, assessed the situation, gave us a workaround so we could at least have AC in the 95 degree heat and was back out in 36 hours to do the job. AMAZING! Competent, personable and affordable. Service the way its supposed to be, thanks Joe and son!

I said fine I had already purchased a replacement ceiling fan and I paid him $300 for the additional item that he said was electrician they the brand new ceiling fan out of the box and proceeded to try to install the ceiling fan. I don't know specifically what he did, but I want him remove the ceiling fan brand new out of the box on and meant the ceiling fan as he was installing it and the ceiling fan didn't work. I was watching him the entire process, but he around and says oh the ceiling fan must be defective. It must've been bent The ceiling fan wasn't banned. I watched him take the brand new ceiling fan out of the box and subsequently bent it when he was trying to install it then he says well you have the packing ceiling fan came in. You can return it to the store and get a replacement. The problem is that I now have a broken ceiling fan installed in my ceiling so how am I supposed to remove the broken ceiling fan? I'm not electrician. I subsequently called American home shield and JCJ did not respond. I would anyone to use this company incompetent if not corrupt and the only reason why I even utilize them was because they were the assigned contractor with American home shield

Thanks to Robert and Ryan! But I do have 2 issues with the sales. 1. They bill me $675 for handling township electric work permitting, and the township price is $250, a 170% markup. The salesman said it is because they have to hire high-priced inspectors. I told him the $250 township fee includes the inspection. He said I was wrong. The inspector came in today and was paid by the Township. I was right. 2. The sales tried to bill me $500 for a loose house electric meter. I told him that multiple workers in the past had checked and found nothing wrong with the meter itself. Just the screws to the wall were loose. We verbally agreed that the installation crew would re-check during work and would adjust the price accordingly. Robert and Ryan did check and found nothing wrong with the meter and re-attached it back to the wall, but still charged me $400 claiming they were not allowed to adjust more than $100. I would be happy to pay premium for honest job, but $875 out of the $2,468 I paid to Ampd is for nothing. I bought the connector separately. Robert and Ryan did a good job, but the sales process as a whole was less than honest.

Everyone I interacted with was friendly, professional, and punctual. The team was able to figure out a clean , simple solution for our specific setup, which was complicated by a number of factors. The two electricians who came out went above and beyond in that they helped seal up some cracks in my garage and even topped up the oil in our generator. Many thanks to the folks at All Phase--we will definitely be using them for all our electrical needs in the future.

I want to share my experience with All Phase Electic Co. The company is located in Upper Darby, PA…read more First, I had excellent service about four years ago. They installed/replaced an outside flood light which was professionally done and required a bucky truck to reach the light. I was delighted with their work, and it was a reasonable price for their service. I requested their assistance again in November 2022 to install/replace an outside flood light in the back of our home. The job only required a ladder and was reasonably priced. However, I wanted more professional service and shared my concerns. They replaced the light fixture I provided with a box that allowed exposed wiring. I was unhappy with the job and consulted other professionals who felt the job primarily would not meet local code. A wire was exposed going into the box. I asked if they could put all wires in the box, which I thought would have been done the first time. The cost of doing it correctly would be $565.00, which I felt was unreasonable, but I signed the contract, not knowing they had the attention to charge me the $335.00 for the first visit. The total cost would be $565.00. However, shortly after paying $565.00, I received another payment notice afterward of $335.00. The total costs to replace an outside flood light I provided and existing wiring that took less than an hour cost $900.00. I share this with you all, so this does not happen to you. The first service was at least a month and a half before the second service to correct the problem. There is no way I would have requested their service if I had received the first service bill. The service was going to be $565.00 in total. I have attached some pictures of the two jobs. Needs to say, I am looking for excellent and honest electric company services.
