Description of Work: Replaced all electrical switches and outlets, installed a new outlet and installed a new hanging light. The lead person was excellent. I would question if the second person was a trained electrician. That would be the only question I would ask should I engage them in the future as the deal was for two electricians.

Description of Work: Mike Dove Electrics put in 6 can lights in my kitchen. I had contracted for 8 hours of work for $299.00. I purchased all of the lights through Mike. They were terrific and I would use them again absolutely. Mike is great and so are his workers. I highly recommend them.

I prefer to get a flat rate for |the job and not have to run around finding parts. |The work that was done was of good quality and works perfectly.

Description of Work: We're very happy with our new ceiling light box replacement. We added a fifth light to accommodate our large kitchen. As an added bonus a sixth light was added over a counter providing much needed light, something we wanted to add for years. The two man crew were very careful with our flooring and dust control. They were well mannered and clean up was very thorough. And it only took 6 hours.

Description of Work: Installed exhaust fan in garage attic gable. Agreed to spray fan flat black so not visible from street. Connected electrical at garage door opener junction box. All went well and rapidly. I note that the services provided by this company were explained to me as narrow. This is apparently not a "full service" electrician. I had several other electrical projects that I wished to have bid, but they were not within the scope of this companies chosen line of work. They did fine work within the scope of the offer and agreement.

Description of Work: The electrician was exactly on time. The young man was extremely knowledgeable, expedient and did quality work. Additionally, he was professional and courteous. He performed several repairs & updates, i.e. replaced electrical outlet & switch, hard-wired lamp to wall, rerouted light from a multi-panel switch to one designated for that light only.

Description of Work: Installed outdoor motion detector light and plug where no light or plug existed before. Everything working fine. Inside switch plate was left a little messy, but nothing I can't remedy with a bigger plate. I probably should give them an overall A, but I'm a little finicky. Would definitely call them again for something I can't do myself.

Description of Work: I purchased 2hrs of service for $79.00. Originally scheduled for 8-15-14 but I had an emergency and had to reschedule which Mr Dove was kind enough to do. The work was completed 8-29-14. They repaired my kitchen light which required replacing a ballast and all 4 tubes and installed an outlet on my patio. The young man was punctual, knowledgeable, hard working and tidy

Description of Work: Overall, I really was pleased with the outcome of this service. I purchased a deal on Angie's List for 2 hours of electrical service to replace/rewire a ceiling fan. The job grew much bigger than I anticipated because of a previous owner's DYI effort. The electrician was very careful and complete. In the end, it took much longer than I thought, but he charged me a very fair price and did meticulous work. I would definitely have him back.

Description of Work: Purchased the $79 for 2 hours electrical service deal. Nate installed an LED light in my bathroom and added outlets for my new security system. He explained everything well and came up with suggestions regarding the outlets. I took his advice and it really worked out well for the security installers.

Very pleased!
Description of Work: Michael's guys showed up promptly on time and boy do they have this down to a science! In and out within 4-6 hours, not a single spec of dirt or dust anywhere and besides the obvious improvements they did you could not tell they had been in my house!. I even had them wire me up a J-box for a fan and they did it for a nominal fee, and with ease. Let's put it this way, I would 100% work with him and his team again. I get non stop comments now of how good the work looks. Very happy.!

Description of Work: The service provider was prompt ( first contact only 28 minutes after purchase ) and professional. I have no complaints from purchase, to contact, to the request for service refund. I am disappointed it is not possible to perform the service, but I would indeed look for another and other service providers through Angie's List.
