Description of Work: Contacted provider in Feb for service, he indicated that he would not be able to perform the work until April. Situation became untenable and was forced to hire someone else. I have no comment on his quality, just his customer service.

Description of Work: after a few attempts to schedule, jeff came out to install a fan. He insisted a fan could not go on the ceiling because it was only design for light; I explained that we had a fan there before but removed it to make room for a new one. He said the builder was wrong and wanted to charge more money. We agreed it was best I request a refund.

Response from Dwelling Electric Inc.
She wanted me to install ceiling fans in a location with non ceiling fan rated support boxes. I pointed out that the screw threads were loosening and how unsafe it was.She thinks its OK because someone else had installed ceiling fans there. According to the National Electrical Code Ceiling Fans need to have proper support. I don't think anyone want's a ceiling fan to come crashing down.

Description of Work: Dwelling Electric was a good vendor who came by on the time promised for the appointment. Jeff the owner,electrician was very prompt and did a good job in installing the recessed lights. I had requested Jeff to replace the recessed lights with LED lights and he was more than happy to honor it with an additional payment for the LED lights. I even got a fan installed in the living room after seeing his work and was very glad that it turned out well on the installation.

Everything went well.
Description of Work: Jeffrey from Dwelling Electric replaced all the old electrical outlets in my house. He came on time, worked carefully and cleaned up when he was finished. He recommended the correct outletst and bought them for me before he started the job. He did excellent work and I would hire him again for additional electrical work.

Very excellent.
Description of Work: I had a problem with 2 of my bathrooms. When I tried to plug my hairdryer into the sockets nothing would happen. Nothing would work. I went out to the main circut breaker box and looked but everything was good. Puzzled, I went onto Angies List and called Jeffrey at Dwelling Electric. Within 30 minutes he called me right back and said, "I can solve the problem over the phone." "I said what." Well he went on and said that because my house is older my GFI switch is probably out in the garage. I went out there and he waited on phone until I pushed the red botton. See I thought the GFI switch was in the bathroom. Anyways, I pushed the switched & went back on and IT WORKED. Thank goodness. He was honest and helpful. He did tell me that I should not exceed 1,400 watts on my hairdryer plus use not more than 12 amps...otherwise to much heat. Thank goodness no cost at this time. Very helpful person. I would call again.

Description of Work: This was the best experience with a contractor that I have had. He was on time, and did the work within budget. He also explained what he could and could not do with my old house and did what we mutually decided was the best option. And he actually worked longer than he estimated but did not charge me for the extra time. The finished work was excellent. I would definitely use Dwelling again.

Description of Work: Jeff did a great job and my kitchen lighting is fantastic. He worked hard and got the job done in the time allotted. I was just a little shocked by how much the materials cost in addition. Didn't realized the deal was basically just for labor @ $50/hr.
