I called the advertised business number numerous times and got a recorded message each time to leave a message. Never got a call back. Finally called another company and assume The Electrician LLC has gone out of business. Too bad as I have used them several times over the years and was previously very satisfied.
Description of Work: I wanted to have a transfer switch installed at our new home to use with a portable generator during power outages. I also needed additional indoor and outdoor receptacles installed.

Brian, one of the staff electricians who has previously been to my house for other wiring projects, came at my request to look at the electrical panel, discuss the installation of a generator transfer switch and give me a price quote to install such a device. After agreeing to proceed, Brian and another electrician showed up a few days later as scheduled to do this project which took them the better part of a morning. They worked efficiently to install the electrical unit to my main panel as well as installed the outside receptacle to plug the generator into. Afterwards they tested it and gave me a demonstration on how to use it during a power outage. They answered all my questions and provided me with an extra long, arctic-grade extension cord for cold weather use. As noted, I have previously used The Electrician, LLC to wire receptacle boxes under my house to plug heat tapes into and additional outdoor receptacles to plug in cold-weather vehicle heaters. Each time I have been very pleased with their work. They have been prompt, professional and trustworthy, always giving me a price quote ahead of time before proceeding. I will gladly use them again in the future.
Description of Work: The Electrician, LLC installed a 6-space, Transfer Switch to power my house off a portable generator during power outages from our regular electrical utility, Golden Valley Electric Association.

I fully appreciate when a professional service person gets backed up and can't come. I get it. But to call and receive nothing in return is a waste of my time. A woman answered and said the electrician would call back. He didn't She didn't. Left me hanging.
Description of Work: Nothing.

After describing the problem to him over the phone he pointed me to a solution I could do myself, saving me hundreds of dollars. Any straight-shooting, honest professional that's willing to give me a solution at the expense of a lucrative, simple job where he could have gouged me without me knowing, will confidently get my business in the future
Description of Work: After struggling for more than 6 hours troubleshooting in a dead run at my house I called The Electrician and asked them to send someone out to fix it.

He was efficient. He did not have to "go to town" for parts. He was flexible and knowledgeable about the work we requested.
Description of Work: The electrician arrived on time on the day and set right to work wiring a three-way switch and mounting the LED light fixture in the hall to the basement. He then rewired and brought up to code the furnace and water pump wiring in the utility room. He then extended a new circuit to power freezers in the entryway.

After telling the technician (Bryant) our assessment of the situation he got right to work. He tested all the outlets in the master bedroom and bathroom as well as the outlets in the hallway. He found the problem very quickly and fixed it. He also fixed a loose outlet in the master bedroom. I did not look at the time when he arrived but I would say that the entire service call took no more than 30 minutes. He was quick, efficient, friendly, and cleaned up after himself. I would definitely recommend The Electrician to anyone in need of electrical work and if I need this type of service again I will definitely call them.
Description of Work: We woke up to no electricity to half of our master bedroom. My husband thought the problem was a loose wire but did not have the time or the proper tools to work on this so I searched Angie's List and found The Electrician. After reading the reviews I decided to give them a call. I spoke with Gene, who was very polite and ran through a few options to make sure we tried everything before requiring their services. He explained the cost of the initial service call and that they charge by task and not by the hour. He also explained they were pretty booked (it is Monday) and said it might not be until Friday that they could get to my issue; however, he was able to fit me in today (between 1:30-2pm). A short time later Gene called me back and was able to send a technician to my house sooner and it was just a little after 9am. The technician arrived about 20 minutes later.

The service went very well and very professional. It started with assessing the scope of work and planning the job then executing the plan. The electrician had contingency plans for every possible issue that might have arisen.

I did have to wait a few days for the appointment, but the electrician arrived when he said he would, and fixed the electrical issues in my home. The pricing was fair and reasonable, and it went very well, even though it took some time to diagnose the second issue.
Description of Work: Diagnosed and fixed an electrical problem in my bathroom; replaced an outlet that had gone bad. Also diagnosed and fixed an issue with an overhead kitchen light. This required additional time and a trip to find a part to replace the socket, but the light was fixed before the end of the afternoon. The pricing was explained beforehand - there is a fixed price for coming to the house, then a per job price. Since the job took a while to diagnose, this pricing ended up being far better than an hourly charge. The electrician was polite, diligent and didn't leave a mess. I would definitely call them again.

He was very good. My experience with them was excellent. We used them about 3 years ago aswell, and that’s why we went back to them. Back then, they put in the wires that go through the generator system in our house, and we had good luck with them, that’s why we went back to them. This time aswell he did a very good job. It’s hard to comment on price, because I haven’t compared it with others. But I thought it was fair, in other words I thought it was well in line with what he did.
Description of Work: I use Mr. Electric for electrical works. We had some loose wiring in a couple of outlets, and the water tank we use outside is always plugged in to one of the outlet which was not working, so he fixed that. He also put up some automatic yard lights, that go on and off at dusk.
