They're excellent. We had a chronic problem in the kitchen where everything would go wrong. The lights would dim everything he put on an appliance. In terms of price, I'd say he's kind of like any good person, he demands what he's worth.
Description of Work: He came in and rewired some thing, did some outdoor lighting.

In a word, terrible. The first phase of the job was to relocate all the wiring, which was completed. However, as part of this phase of the job, a bundle of our home alarm wires had to be disconnected, re-routed, and reconnected. Instead of doing this, United Electric's electrician, Jessie, simply cut the entire wire bundle which renders our alarm system inoperable. And since the wires all look identical, there is no simple way to figure out how to re-wire things. There are approximately 100 different wires that were cut. Jessie promised that he would take care of this problem in conjunction with our alarm company when he returned to finish the job. Once the first phase of the job described above was completed, we were waiting for our cabinets to be installed. When we got confirmation of the cabinet installation date we started calling United Electric to schedule them to come back to complete the job and repair the alarm wiring. They simply did not return phone calls. My wife finally got a hold of them and they informed her that they would not return to finish the job. We've had to find and hire a different electrician to finish the work, at considerable additional expense. I am frankly aghast at the lack of professionalism of this company. I wish I had checked Angie's List prior to hiring them and would strongly recommend to any Angie's List users out there to avoid this company.
Description of Work: We hired United Electric to do the electrical wiring for a complete kitchen remodel. We were relocating appliances and the scope of work was to pull electrical to the new appliance locations as well as for under-cabinet and cabinet accent lighting.

In 36 years one bad review. We tried to accommodate, but you can't please everyone. There is always one in a crowd.
