I needed to have a fan drop put in a room where there was no electrical box in the ceiling. Two of their electricians came out and ran wires from an outlet, through the wall and into the ceiling to create a fan drop. I installed the fan myself. They replaced the covers for the wall out lets and cleaned up the drywall dust from the cuts in the wall. After this job I called them again to check on my breaker box and they resolved a bad switch issue with it. I would call them again for any other electrical needs.

Purchased the $69 Big Deal for 1 hour of electrical labor. They fixed wiring to a light fixture that wasn't working. A light bulb was unfortunately broken during the process, but I guess the good thing is that it didn't take them long to fix the wiring issue.

So the deal clearly says during normal business hours which was expected. We did play some phone tag and took a bit to set it up. The deal does say it will be scheduled. They provided a 2 hour time window. They did run late (it is the busy season) but called at the back of the time frame to give me an update on the arrival time. I told them what was wrong and they got right to it. They started and were finished with in about 15 minutes. I felt like a dummy but did a good job. I am glad I used the deal instead of paying full price. I would use them again.
Description of Work: We took part of the $69.00 deal for 1 hour of labor. They reset everything and all is good.

I had their service for an hour, and they came out on time. They weren't professionally presentable. Two guys were there. One guy fixed the light switch, the other did nothing. I had them for a whole hour, so I asked him to check a light bulb, and he ended up breaking the bulb, which I cleaned up. I also had no replacement bulb. I chose this company because their listing on Angie's List states that they work Saturdays and Sundays. After purchasing the deal, they then tell me over the phone that they do not work on Sundays. I tried explaining why this was not good advertising, but they wanted to put the blame on Angie's List as opposed to taking responsibility for the way they are advertised.

Since I had to take off work, I asked to have them an outdoor receptical installed. The materials were $30.00 since is was opposite an existing inner plug. The labor was the same as another coupon of $69.00. Great deal. I got to work after just an hour. I will call them again.
Description of Work: The electricians, put in a plug for an a/c unit. Materials were $11.00. It took them 20 minutes.

Larry called me within a day of buying the 1 hour of labor for $69.00 Angie's List special. As per my previous experience, he is upfront and sets expectations on his timing and when he will be able to coordinate a time. We made a tentative scheduled time for Monday. Since I can work from home when needed, this was fine for me. Come Monday, Larry called back advising he wouldnt be able to make it that day but could the next day (Tuesday) at about 10 am. Tuesday, two electricians showed up, one being one of the electricians that had been here about one year ago for a different service call. They arived about 9:45 am, so I was happy about the timing. Their initial diagnostic from what I had told them had occurred, was that the light ficture may be the issue. While they ran through troubleshooting measures, I ran to Lowe's to buy new halogen bulbs. I had also left them with the transformer and other spare parts I had obtained. When I returned from Lowe's they had nearly finished troubleshooting. They tested the bulbs and found only one of 5 was good. They replaced the transformer as well. All lights were back on and working, however they said due to the connection issues the track lighting may have, that the lights would go out. The wire in the ceiling was fine. They also took a look and rewired two 3-way switches that had been incorrectly wired in another room. All was fixed. I am crossing my fingers my new fixture does not cause a problem again, however to avoid spending $1000.00, the kit I bought is more of a budge fixture I had spent $250.00 on. Being this is my second time using Rio Salado Electric, I plan on continue useing their services as I have always been happy and please about their service.
Description of Work: I had a three bulb light fixture in a dining room setting. The individual bulbs went out one by one over a period of about one week. I changed the bulbs, but about one week later the same issue occurred. I was already in the process of buying new lighting so I didnt worry about it. I installed a new track lighting fixture with 5 pendant lights. This was an all inclusive kit. Within a couple weeks, one pendant flickered and eventually went out. Each light went out over the next week period. Considering this was a new feature and similiar issue to the old feature, I decided to have a professional look at it. I also obtained a new transformer and spare connection parts from the light store I bought the feature from.

As stated above, all is working now. He made sure my Mom was safe with everything before he left. Very considerate gentleman!
Description of Work: Replaced an old electrical outlet in an existing box and ran an existing phone line over to it for a Medical Alert system to be placed on the wall in a centrally placed location in the house. When the first two men left the outlet worked but we shortly found out we had no phone line into the house so we contacted the office immediately since it was late in the day. The owner ended up coming out himself and he stayed until it worked perfectly(overtime). Thank you!

Rio Salado Electric was good. It went well. They completed it and it was a reasonable time frame. There weren't any additional charges outside of the scope of work because that's usually the problem, you buy one of these deals and then they come out then all of a sudden there was additional charges that didn't make sense according to what was listed within the deal so with these guys they didn't seem to do that.
Description of Work: They installed a chandelier for us.

I spoke to Larry and told him I needed some work based on the home inspection report for my new home. I wanted the work done this week before my appliances were delivered. He said he would come by but was on a tight schedule and he would call the next day to tell me when he could come by. He did call several times and said he was having a busy day but he would get over to my house. I was having other work done that day and was at the house all day so I was ok with this. He did come by and was very helpful in explaining what i needed. He did not think I needed everything that was on the inspection report and I agreed with him- so he did save me money. He called later that day and schedule a worker to come out between 10 and 1 the following day. He did come out on time and completed the work order quickly and efficently. I am very satisfied with the work that was done. Larry was looking for outdoor outlets to see if they needed covers. I don't have any but it sounds like a good idea. I will call him in the future to see if he can install those for me. He is definately someone i would call again.
Description of Work: i asked larry to come out and give me an estimate based on home inspection of my new home. I was unclear about what needed to be done but wanted it done right awaw before my appliances were delivered. He came out - explained everything to me- set up a time for his worker to come out and do the work. Work was done in a quick and professional manner
