Dealt with Todd directly the whole time and was very impressed with his patience and flexibility. Work was done on a modular home and was to correct things done incorrectly in the past. He came out in person to discuss the work and provide the quote, flexed with us when things weren't ready for him yet, and handled add-on work w/o complaint. Rates were very reasonable, work was very well done, and we are very happy with the job done. Would highly recommend his company.
Description of Work: install new service panel, relocate AC wiring, install AC whip, move outlets, replace main power line support post, realigned main power in box on post.
I spoke by phone with the owner, Todd, on Friday. He came over to estimate the job the following day. His estimate was reasonable and he was able to have the work performed the following Monday. Todd and Benji showed up promptly, reviewed the job and Benji performed the work. This was a job well done in a professional and competent manner. I have finally found an electrician for all my future electrical needs. Thank you.
Description of Work: Exterior security and interior pendant lights installed; metal box housing electrical outlet stabilized, three ceiling fans adjusted; and a pull chain replaced on one ceiling fan.

This is the third time I've called Hill Electric in for work on my recently purchased home. Todd is consistently helpful and interested in doing the job right. He explains what needs to be done in advance. He charges for time and materials and he and his assistant work quickly. They are friendly, helpful, professional, and have been very responsive. On occasion they have called to see if they could do the work earlier to create space in their schedule but work with me to find the best time for both of us. I'm thrilled to have found such a great electrician.
Description of Work: Installed two outdoor lights.

The work went perfectly as planned by the owner of Hill Electric. They came in did the work cleaned up the areas better than they found it. There was no wasted time, they continued until everything was done. Once completed they walked me through everything they had done to ensure it met with my satisfaction. They were great to work with and yes I would use them again and again.
Description of Work: Hill Electric added lights in the master closet, lights in the garage, timer controls for the porch light and swamp cooler. The lights in the garage required fishing a new line from an existing light through the crawl space above the garage with no major access.

They are probably one of the best companies I have ever worked with. They showed up and the guy that owns it is a perfect gentleman. He did exactly what he's going to do and his pricing was very good. He's always willing to go a little further with suggestions on making things better. He's a great man all the way around and very trustworthy. I would hand him the keys to my house if he needs it. He's the number one guy I've ever worked with. I've been using them since last year. His service is first class. He'd been out here for about 4 times and each time it's a little different. Each time I felt like we were getting the worth of our money than we would have anywhere else.
Description of Work: We used Hill Electric for electrical work. He installed ceiling fans, light switches, and moved electrical boxes. He also did ceiling lights, fans, he converted things and a little bit of everything.

We recently moved here from Texas and our new house had a gas connection for the dryer and we have an electric dryer. I contacted Todd and he promptly came to my house to give me an estimate for the job. In this case he was able to give me a couple of options on what we could do to hook up the dryer. We were able to quickly got on his calender to get the job done. It did not take him too long to complete the job and I definitely plan on using him again.
Description of Work: They changed my dryer connection from gas to electric.

I was referred to this company to install 2 simple/basic flat screen TV's. I asked him to hide the wires behind the wall, when he was done, I looked and saw that the wires were not hidden, I asked him why and he snaps back at me and said I never said I wanted him to do that. Then he continues to tell me "well I didn't have the parts in my truck" OK, so you lied to me! He treated me as if I didn't know what I was asking for, then his little assistant said, we can put a clear strip on the floor to hide the wires, where am I, in some foreign country, what part of hiding the wires do you not get. Needless to say, he charged me 500.00 for a shotty job. I would never recommend this jerk to anyone!

Response from Hill Electric Inc
Our records show that you called to have two cable TV outlets and power receptacles raised. And also install two TV brackets and install two flat screen TVs. You were quoted $250.00 each. Upon arrival, the first question you were asked was if you had a TV box, most people want the wiring for TV boxes "hidden". There were a few other projects going on at your house at the time and you told us to put the wires as they existed that day in the wall and both you and your landlord (a client of ours) understood there would be drywall repair. The job was completed and you were satisfied the job was done as quoted. It was at this time you presented the fact that you needed an empty sleeve in the wall for when you got your TV box. We reminded you we had asked you about this issue earlier. We told you we didn't have the conduit on the truck for your additional request but that we could get it and come back. These are the facts as we remember them. We always appreciate customer comments although please remember to include all facts of the actual job.

Todd returned my call within the first few hours after I called his company. The appointment was set up for the next week. He arrived on time. He was very professional and I was and still am very pleased with the work that was done at my home. The price charged me for the work that he did was reasonable. I did have a coupon from Angie's List and he did honor that coupon. I would certainly use his services again. Stephanie Campbell
Description of Work: Todd Hill replaced a bad remote/receiver in a ceiling fan and he replaced a transformer and 3 lamps in the atrium.

Efficient, professional and speedy installation. Todd has a facility for explaining what he intends to do regarding the job (and why) in layman's terms. No jargon. In my opinion a very good businessman and an indispensable vendor when you have electrical issues.

When I reached Todd today, he very quickly told me he doesn't serve Desert Hot Springs. Here's the problem with that. Since he comes from the East Valley, he undoubtedly uses the freeway. Palm Springs and Desert Hot Springs are the same distance from the freeway, just in opposite directions. And yet he serves Palm Springs and not my city. It makes no sense. Oh did I mention that DHS is less affluent than Palm Springs? It feels like discrimination to me and I don't like it. The only reason I didn't give them an F is that they didn't waste my time.
Description of Work: None. He wouldn't even come out.

90 Clean, professional and well-done! He is a keeper for electrical work we need in the future, like upgrading our Panel and more. The smoke and other detectors were installed fast and cleanly. The fan outlets where a bit more tricky as we had main HVAC vents smack dab in the middle of our rooms...so Todd and Benjamin took time to ask where the beds were going to be placed and made recommendations accordingly. Outstanding workmanship at a great price.
Description of Work: We bought a 50-yo ranch home. Todd and Benjamin did a great job surveying the entire property and checking for electrical problems. They found a few, fixed them and suggested other needed fixes...like adding hard-wired CO2 and Smoke detectors and ceiling fan outlets in the bedrooms.

Wiring had to be run to 2 new locations. Installers were very careful not to put unnecessary holes in the ceiling. They were very tidy and made a real effort to clean up. Very professional. The owner came with the electrician to supervise and assist. The owner came out for a pre-inspection at no additional cost.
