See above I rated this company with an "A" due to it wasn't their fault and the N/A button would not allow me to select. I'm not sure if the Company gets a print out of who buys the deals. IF SO, a phone call telling me they don't service my town would have been nice- but again - I have no knowledge of what the contractor receives. A lower rating seems unfair since the rating for ANGIES LIST would have been an "F". Did I mention it took awhile to get the funds returned?
Description of Work: I did not have service performed from the company. This review is about Angies List instead. I bought a deal advertised via email from Angies List for 79.00 - 2 hours of electrical labor. I live in Fairfield CA and I am now finding that these deals are not aligned with the companies willingness to travel outside a certain mile range. I emailed the company to have the work done and the response was " I don't come to fairfield". I found this to be unfair of Angies list to subject all parties involved to not cover their bases. Since this incident- I have found I am between San Francisco and Sacramento Angies listings and HARDLY anyone will travel. Also, I now realize that before you select the deal you must contact the company to determine what their qualifications are before you buy. This part I am not happy about. I have suggested to Angies list to come up with a zone for NAPA/ Solano Counties. In even more research found companies here in town that are apart of the program ( not electrical) are traveling 30-60 miles away. Wouldn't it make sense to start something to keep those that have their businesses here in this area, and keep those that won't travel, in their own areas? I suggest a filter on these deals- allowing the companies to list the zip codes servedand have ANGIES LIST put out only deals to those offering services to said cities. It is easy to do. Most mass emailing programs have filters that can be directed by zip codes.

Unfortunately, I wasn't aware that there would be supply costs in addition to the labor. There was actually a balance on the labor that I never used because I was afraid that anything that was done would end up costing me a lot in the long run. Also, the items that I really wanted to have done, he was not able to do.
Description of Work: Installed one outside outlet using an inside outlet.

Description of Work: I purchased a Big Deal from Anything Electric. I contacted the owner and although he was booked through the coupon time period, he has agreed to honor the coupon early next year when he is back at work after the holiday. He was flexible and very prompt in both phone and email communication.

We hired Anything Electric through the Angies Deal - 2 hours for $89. Ken was a few minutes early, got right to work and even stayed a bit longer to help us figure out some wiring issues. He is very capable, knowledgeable and patient. I would definately hire him again.
Description of Work: Ken did a variety of electrical repairs and helped us figure out some electrical problems in our old house. He replaced switches, fixed some incorrectly wired outlets, and gave us advice on other electrical issues.

I purchased a Big Deal in May for $79 for 2 hours of electrical work. I started contacting Ken Adams, the owner of Anything Electric, in August. There were some mix-ups with returning phone calls and the work was finally scheduled for October. Ken was very prompt and professional. He had no problems installing the bathroom light fixture and two outdoor lights within the two-hour time frame. These continue to work just fine. I was also hoping to fix a ceiling fan that had been making noise and had just recently sparked when the light was turned on; however, he discovered that the light fixture shorted out and would have to be replaced. I was overall very satisfied with Ken's work.
Description of Work: Installed a new bathroom light fixture and two outdoor lights. The services were also to fix a ceiling fan but it was determined the fan would need to be replaced.

same as above. Nice guy tho.
Description of Work: Services were not performed at all. I don't remember the date. My pond lights were out and kept going in the water and short out. He could not help me. Normally, one would get a free estimate. Well, I paid for this free estimate. He did state he would take the $200. off when I needed work done but......... I wish I was able to get my money back because he couldn't do anything with my issue at the time. Will he remember or be in business in the spring time when I plan on getting this work completed? I certainly hope so. $200.00 is alot of money to spend on an estimate. He was a very nice guy tho.

the crew showed up on time, took a great deal of time (off the clock mind you) explaining my installation options and any additional associated costs. they then began charging me for the work after all the consultation was complete. the result was that the crew was here for 1.5 hours before they started charging me for the work, very fair. the work was professional and I got the result that I desired. would definetely recomend this company to anyone for electrical work

Ken arrived on time and installed my ceiling fan without any problems. I asked him for an estimate on another electrical project I have in mind and he did so. However, I'm not quite ready to get it done. He left my bedroom clean without any dust. He even took the old fan tothe garage. Thank you for your list.
Description of Work: Ken charged me an additional $10.00, because I live in Folsom, a community outside Sacramento. He did tell me that when I first talked to him. But I didn't care, because I was getting my ceiling fan installed, which I had purchased over a year ago. I will deffinetly used his services again.

Actually, services were not performed, and not because I declined service, but because Anything Electric declined to give me service! What happened: I had called Anything Electric to schedule an appointment to come out to my house. I talked to a guy who answered the phone (I don't remember his name) and I believe he was the actual guy who was going to perform the service. I was initially trying to ask him a very simple question, which was "When are you available to come out to my house?". But for some reason that question returned a very long incoherent reply from him. I was scratching my head because I still had no clear answer and didn't know what to do. So I asked my question again only to get a longer incoherent reply from him that still made no sense. And then when I was trying to say that I wasn't understanding him, he got mad at me and said something to me like "I wouldn't perform service for you anyway because I can tell you would be hard to work with!". I then said to him, "Are you kidding? You're not serious are you?". He said that he would NOT perform any services for me. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. I was blown away. In retrospect, I'm glad he didn't perform services for me because if someone is going to perform something as critically important as electrical services, you don't want the person A). to be unable to understand even a simple question, B). be unable to have coherent intelligent conversations with you or C). fly off the handle and get mad at the drop of a hat. Yikes, buyer beware of this company.
Description of Work: Services ended up not being performed. The explanation for this can be seen in the next section.

Response from Anything Electric
Member’s story is a little different than I recall the phone call. The Member called and wanted to schedule an appointment, I asked Brian for his coupon number so I could verify that he had purchased the coupon. The Member could not provide the coupon number and he stated that he had just purchased the coupon prior to calling me. I told the Member that I could not schedule an appointment until I had received the coupon verification from Angie’s List and at that point we could schedule the appointment. The Member then got very upset because, I wouldn’t schedule is project. Again I explained that until I had the verification of the coupon purchase, I would be unable to schedule his project and if he would give Angie’s list some time to forward the coupon purchase to me at that point we could schedule the work. I asked him to give me a call back the following day and I should have at that point received his coupon purchase. Brian did not like what I was saying and got pretty angry at that point, I told Brian that he should ask for a refund due to the fact that I didn’t feel that I needed to be treated the way. Customers’ should remember that if I have not received coupon verification, I have no way of knowing if a coupon has been purchased or not. All that needed to happen here is to allow me to receive the notification and Brian and I could have moved forward at that point without all the angry stuff on the phone.

Another vendor had provided a timer which he determined he could not install as he was a "low voltage" guy. Thus, I accepted the Big Deal with Anything Electric. Mr. Adams called, set up a timely visit, arrived, concluded that the preiously priovided timer was defective, went and bought a new one, returned, installed, set up and verified proper operation. Asked me if there was anything else he might do, upon hearing "no" and my "thank yous", he departed. He was a pleasure to work with.

Ken was earlier than expected. He was professional and answered all questions. Set up wiring for a ceiling fan in a room without existing wiring and helped with a partial install of the fan. He checked a few other electrical issues in my home and gave his recommendations. I would definitely use his service again.

Ken was proficient and professional in his ability to review our situations and create the best solutions for our issues. He was cheerful even in the face of working 2 1/2 hours in the hot Sacramento sun. When the job was completed, he reviewed another lighting issue in our house and came up with a creative solution that we will use in the near future (with Ken's services).

This review is long over due but more than a month ago Ken came to install a solar attic fan in our two-story house. We had purchased 2 hours of Electrician time from Angie’s List special for $79.00. The job was difficult because not only did Ken have to crawl in a small attic space but also had to scale up to the second story on a latter to install the solar panel. He was prompt in his arrival within 15 minutes and did what was necessary to get the job done. It was a pleasure working with Ken he was very professional, personable and did not quibble about staying 15 minutes extra to discuss any concerns we had. I would definite hire him again and would recommend him to anyone.

Great. I thought I had a breaker problem, when in fact a couple of the breakers were not engaged correctly. As for the proposed upgrades, it would have required more time to complete so the upgrades will be scheduled at a later date.
Description of Work: Checked the breaker box for a problem. Evaluated the proposed changes/upgrades I wanted to make to existing outlets. Time did not permit the changes to be done at time of initial visit.
