We had a terrible storm with unbelievable lightning during the night. Lightning hit something outside the house and lightning ran into the garage hitting the GDI plug in the garage. This knocked out power to half of the house, including the air conditioning. This is in July, when the temperatures are in the high 90's so we really wanted someone to come out quickly and get the air conditioning going again as soon as possible. We called Bailey Electric at 7:AM and they were at our house, in the storm, at 8:20 AM. It doesn't get much better than that except to add that they fixed our lightning problems in approximately an hour and were on their way. They were so nice and certainly knew what they were doing. We would definitely use them again.
Description of Work: Replaced GDI plug after being blown from lightning.

Their price was excellent. Their technician was incredibly friendly and helpful. They worked with me to help me save money by doing some of the wiring myself. They always came out quickly when I needed them in a pinch and on at least one occasion even rushed out to my house immediately when I realized that I needed some extra work done that would otherwise have held up construction. These guys are great!
Description of Work: I was finishing out a 1500SF basement in my home. Bailey electrical installed an additional breaker box as well as wiring and disconnects for two AC units. They wired about 15 switches and 15 or so light fixtures, including can lights and ceiling hung fixtures, as well as quite a few outlets and some data and phone connections.

Came the same day I called. Discovered there was an AGI outlet on wall of the garage that had tripped (an outlet I was unaware of). That fixed the outage problem. Furnished and installed two GFI outlets in kitchen. Cost included the time spent for two men and travel time.
Description of Work: Power outage for portion of house. Circuit breakers were all in on position. Also needed GFI outlets to be installed near sinks (this deficiency found by another contractor).

Sorry, please the above explanation. I put everything in the area above.
Description of Work: Install a street lamp at my new home. I have called many, many times and still the work has not been completed. I would like for the company to complete the work. I also would like to work with this company, as I have had all other work performed by them in a very good manner. I do not understand why the work on this one project was not completed. I also have many other electrical projects on my new home for which I need assistance and I would like to use Bailey Electric, if they will come and complete this one project for me as soon as possible.

I phoned Bailey Elec to schedule them to give me an estimate. After the third phone call, Mr. Bailey told me he would try to come out that day, which has been three business days ago. I never heard back from them to schedule an appointment or to at least say they were sorry. If they don't need my business, that's fine, but a courteous phone call would be nice to at least say they were extremely busy. I thought that since this company had been in business since 1959 that they would certainly have a clue as to what customer service is all about. I have a good friend that used this company and even referred them to me. But, even if I have to pay a little more, I'll move on to another company.

After looking at the job they gave us a quote. I faxed them a checklist to make sure we were on the same page. They showed up when they said they would and did a really good job. I am well pleased with the work and the cost. Would certainly use them again.
Description of Work: We have an older (50s) home with the wiring in the basement which needed an electrical upgrade. They replaced the old "screw in" fuse box and two smaller boxes into a single 100amp breaker box. They split up a couple of overloaded circuits. They added four new circuits for new plugs in the basement, two motion security lights under the house eves, and four pendent lights in the kitchen with two switches.

Okay. I was disappointed that they kept me on the clock while the guys went to a hardware store to buy something they should have had with them. Had to argue it out with management. At $90.00/hour, they are very high.

Although my appoinment wasn't until lunch, the serviceman got done early and came over in the morning. He got in and out quickly, was very professional, question-tolerant, and personable. Also he was able to fix my problem without the re-wiring a previous contractor had assured me we needed. I liked the fact that he preferred to bill us than me having to come up with the money on the spot.
Description of Work: Mr. Bailey arrived and diagnosed a problem with a non-working circuit, then fixed it, all within about 1 1/2 hours. I had already had one electrician in to look at the problem, but they couldn't figure out what was causing it and recommended re-wiring the whole circuit.

They had the job done fairly quickly and had everything cleaned up very well. I think the best part was the price, we had checked around a bit and they had the lowest. I was very happy with the work that they did moving my light sockets.

Bailey Electric Company came here to repair some electric outlets. The company that my insurance company sent here did a sloppy job on the outlets. They did not put on the covers and wires were loose. I trust Bailey, so I had them come to redo the outlets that were damaged when our home got hit by lightening. Bailey s did a great job. The job was complete when they left. I feel safe now that Bailey Electric was here.
Description of Work: Bailey Electric Company came to my home to repair about 20 electrical outlets.

The company has saved us so much money, when we will be in a time of need. I think that the workers were friendly and very detail oriented. I think that they have to be in this kind of business. The company put in a generator, because of the hurricane season that we have here. The generator will run basically our whole house if needed. The only item that it didn t run, was our air conditioners.
Description of Work: We had some big electrical work done. They installed a cut off switch and a transfer switch.
