Contractor missed two scheduled appointments & showed up unexpectedly later when I wasn't home. My son called to tell me the electricians were at the house. I rushed home & was met by two electricians. I told them what I wanted, & they proceeded to urge me to do rewiring that was unwanted & unnecessary. I authorized them to only remove the old fixture & install the new one. The supervising electrician showed me his price book listing $108 to install a regular fixture & $417 to install a "chandelier" (a fixture over 20 pounds). He quoted me the "chandelier" price. By now I was so rattled, I foolishly agreed. Afterwards I felt I had been taken advantage of. A call to another company informed me that the fixture weighs 17 pounds & that company charges $110 to install it. I called Citywide the next morning for a price adjustment & was grudgingly offered only a 25% refund. That still made the install more expensive than the fixture & 3 times the going rate for this service.
Description of Work: Electricians removed a breakfast room light fixture and installed a new one.

From the initial phone call to the completion of the work, we found City Wide's personnel to be efficient, knowledgeable, and pleasant to do business with. They were prompt, courteous, and reasonably priced. We'd call them again and definitely recommend them to others.
Description of Work: We called City Wide in when we lost electricity in one section of our house.
