Made an appointment which was changed day to a later time and then resulted in not coming for which I waited and wasted a day. When I vented my frustration, he sent a rude and unprofessional email telling me to grow up. Email available for viewing.

John was able to diagnose and fix everything. After an inspection, he was able to give me a quote for both the time and the cost that was very reasonable. He was polite and friendly, but focused on getting the job done. He showed me photos of the attic work as it progressed. It was a pleasure to have him in my home.

It went very well and I am very satisfied with my lights. John was very courteous and also very funny. His fees were very reasonable, I liked his work so much, I recommended him to a friend and will call him when I have other electrical projects.
Description of Work: Removing a 4 ft. by 4 ft fluorescent light fixture in my kitchen. John did a very good job removing the heavy fixture from the ceiling, without damaging my desk and tile floor in the room. He made four 6 inch holes, symmetrically placed and optimally positioned to give even lighting in the room. He installed very modern, flat led lights, which I love. He installed a dimmer switch to change the lighting in the room.

It’s a true fact that pleasant people who have found ways to enjoy their lives and live their lives to the fullest, end up giving pleasant and enjoyable reviews whereas hurting people Whose hearts are full of envy, regret and an ultimate goal to prey upon others, reflect These very attributes at the first chance they are given to write a review Thank you [Member Name Removed] for your positivity, gratefulness and kind words, as you truly are a pleasant lady to do work for Sometimes, when the filthy smog and dust clears, people like Miss [Member Name Removed] are the only meaningful quality left that encourages people to keep moving forward in a positive direction as opposed to completely giving up.

I had never written a review, but John deserves one. He was quick to answer my call and set a date for the repairs. He found and solve the problem with my outlets. He is very clean, polite, and the price for the job was very reasonable. Besides, I got an extra discount for the $30.00 deal offered through Angieslist. Highly recommended.

We know we need to replace our elec system, but were hoping we could hold off until we update our whole kitchen. 5+ electricians were out, and John found a way to temporarily fix what we have and warrant his work for a year. He is truly a miracle worker, professional, and I would hire him again and recommend him in a heartbeat!

Excellent! Fast, expert, great service. I highly recommend John Stavrinides of Budget Electric. He started work punctually, didn't take a break until he finished it completely. He cleaned up all the debris and left the work area meticulous. John answered all my questions and was very helpful in explaining other electrical issues we should address in the future. He has now become our family's "go-to" electrician. His service fee was very competitive and reasonable.
Description of Work: Installed electricity in a backyard shed. Also installed two lighting fixtures in it, one inside and one outside.

John was very honest and professional. He charge very minimum compared to others. He is truly what the name of the company stands for, Budget Electrical Contractors. I did end up hiring him twice. I though he charged so low and ended up just paying him a little more than he charged me for the 2nd time I hired him. He also went above and beyond to help me, even buying the fixtures himself at Home Depot and also lending me his ladder so I can work on having my son paint part of the outside wood frame... although we ended up not using it. Thank you John.

John was excellent! So personable. I had met with a total of 5 Electritians. I felt real comfortable and confident with John. His price was what we expected but his work way out performs his price! He holds nothing back and does his absolute best. He worked clean everyday and was so organized. Made everything so easy. We have already recommended home to 3 of our friends! Thank you John for everything.

I called because Angie's List showed this coupon: $4,500 for Home Electrical Re-Wiring or Replacement Offered by: Budget Electrical Contractors Turns out, that's a load of huey. I spoke to John and found out the coupon is bogus. He explained there is no way for a proper rewire job to be done for that little nor would he. An actual job he recently completed was closer to $18000 for 1500 sq ft home (with panel replacement). The coupon he said appeared on his Angie's List page and he asked them on numerous occasions to remove it. The lesson, call ahead and talk to the contractors first. Don't assume anything you read on Angie's List. I have to say, I'm disappointed.

I can not say enough good things about John's work. He bent over backwards to get the job done on budget, on time and more importantly the work was excellent. John was willing to work with our schedule and got the job done quickly. Highly recommend. Will definitely hire him again for any future projects.

John and his team did an excellent job of installing all items. He had some great suggestions on how to wire and install the motion lights and ceiling fans. We especially liked his suggestion of using 3 position (i.e. speed) switches to control the ceiling fans, instead of using the pull chains. We would recommend John for any type of electrical work.
Description of Work: We had John do several items: 1) Install recessed lighting in dining area, 2) Replace 8 existing recessed lights with new fixtures, 3) Install 2 outdoor motion lights, 4) Install outdoor light fixture, 5) Install 3 GFCI duplex outlets, 6) Install 4 ceiling fans, and 7) Bring some existing wiring up to current code.
