Steve did a wonderful job upgrading the electric capabilities of our home. He was polite, punctual and a non-smoker. My family got to meet him on several occasions and we highly recommend his services.
The day of the Job, the Electrician showed up with himself and a helper. I was under the impression that the Owner/Electrician was going to be the one doing the work, but he left his assistant behind within 15 minutes of being on the job who had “40 years of experience”. It all went downhill from there. I should have had a clue when the person doing the work didn’t have basic tools and needed to borrow from me, such as a pencil, tape measure, drill bits and a hammer. I asked multiple times for him to layout where all of the lights and ceiling fan were going before starting to drill holes. He didn’t. I ended up with random 6 inch holes in my ceiling, with nothing consistent or centered where it was supposed to be.
Steve was very responsive to our request for a quote. He did a great job installing 2 floor outlets for us. His pricing was very reasonable. I highly recommend him if you need electrical work done.
I selected this company based upon a few positive reviews that I read online. Good for those who had positive experiences, I did not. I requested and estimate to have two ceiling fans on our covered balcony. I was up-sold into adding 6 recessed lights and how “easy” the job would be.
Called Anchor Electric to correct a problem with a circuit breaker that kept tripping. Made an appointment for the next morning. Steve arrived promptly, identified the problem and fixed very quickly. He is very friendly and professional. I would not hesitate to hire him again. I give him my highest recommendation.
I called Anchor Electric to replace an outlet, and Steve was able to come out the next day. Not only did he fix the problem, but he was able to explain what had caused it. Overall, Steve was very knowledgeable and charged a fair price for the work. I would definitely recommend them and use them again for future electrical work.
I threw the guy off the job site after a half dozen holes were in the ceiling. The owner came by to investigate the work. He acknowledged that it was done without proper planning and acknowledged responsibility. He said “this wouldn’t’ have happened if I was here”. His first recommended fix was to add speakers where some of the holes were drilled in wrong places. He also recommended cutting out a roof rafter where they had drilled a hole for one of the lights. Removing structural part of the roof did not seem to be a good idea. After further discussion, he agreed that the only way to fix the mess they created was to replace the ceiling. He offered to pay part of the ceiling costs. I chose to have another electrician complete the job. I wasn’t going to allow this company to finish the work. Ceiling repair ended up costing nearly $1500 to repair the damage that he did. Owner ignored multiple texts from when advised of the additional charges to repair the ceiling. When I called him, he hung up on me and didn’t answer when I called back. In additional text correspondence, he advised that we would have only contributed to the ceiling repair if he had been allowed to finish the work.
I’ve considered following complaints with the Eletrician Licensing Board, but haven’t. I did not have a written contract with the company, and was doing on a verbal agreement. I strongly advise against entering into any type of verbal agreement with a company like this. While researching licensing and company history, I’ve learned individuals that I allowed into my house to do this work had a multitude of criminal and civil actions against them, including Burglary, Domestic Violence, Malicious Destruction of Property, Resisting Arrest, Theft, Tax Liens, Judgments, Restraining orders, and Controlled Dangerous Substance. Had I done records checks in advance, I never would have hired this company.
