Description of Work: My husband contacted Ike's Electric for some minor electrical work at our rental unit. Ike is not the cheapest, though to his credit he does not market himself as the cheapest. He was highly responsive, prompt, thorough, experienced, and reasonable. He completed the work just as asked. Great company to contact when you are pressed for time and want a job well done.

Ike's was a pleasure to work with. They were the only contractor I called that called me back the same day. They set up a convenient appointment, and arrived early. The work was done and led by Isais, Ike's son, who was extremely knowledgeable and professional. The work was done quickly and professionally, in the time quoted and allotted. I had a subsequent malfunction with the motion sensor light after heavy rains. I called Ike's, and was called back the same day. Isais came out the next day and replaced the motion sensor and restored it to full working condition. This is a great family-run business that is highly responsive, professional, and does great work. I wish all service providers were like this.

Excellent. My tenant reported that the refrigerator was not operating. She checked the outlet behind the refrigerator, and when she pulled the plug, it sparked. As a result, she used an extension cord which was connected to an outlet in the dining room. This, I thought, was dangerous. I sent Ike an email the evening my tenant reported the problem, and he contacted me by phone the next morning. He was available to check it out that afternoon, and he replaced the defective outlet. He also repaired an existing connection in the bedroom/bathroom and checked for defective wiring. My tenant and I are very pleased. Ike was punctual and professional. When I spoke to him on the phone, I found him to be very helpful. His quick response is much appreciated.

Since Ike didn't return my call, he didn't get the job, and he gets a failing grade from me.
Description of Work: I called Ike's Electric on 5/28/2008 and asked for a quote for household repairs. Ike returned my call on 5/29, leaving a message for me to call him the following morning between 9 and 10 AM. I called him again at the appointed time and asked him to call me. He never did.

Ike did a great job. He called me back within 1 business day (I left a voice mail on New Year's eve) and he showed up the same day. He was professional, timely, and knew what he was doing. He also gave us a couple of suggestions relating to updating our kitchen wiring. I will certainly give Ike Electric a call for any future electrical work.
Description of Work: Ike came in and diagnosed an electrical issue in our kitchen. He immediately diagnosed it as a neutral wire issue and set about finding the specific area. He found it in our crawl space and fixed it within 1 hour. He also replaced a cracked outlet.

Ike came out to do the estimate and took the time to go over my options and explain the wiring in my old apartment. He was very friendly, polite, on time, thorough and informative. I definitely feel liked I learned some new things about electricity! Ike spent 40 minutes here for the estimate. I received the estimate by email later that same day for $400. His very capable son, Isaias, came to do the work a couple of days later. He was also very polite, nice, respectful of my apartment, etc. The work was done exactly as required in about 4 hours. The estimate was right on and the work was perfect! Thanks guys!
Description of Work: I had surface mounted wiring in a bathroom removed and the wiring placed into the wall. I had a new light fixture placed on the ceiling. New GFCI plugs and a new light switch with a dimmer were added to the wall.

Ike, and his colleague Leonard, were both great - competent, creative problem-solvers, great trouble-shooters, and respectful of our home. They were flexible about us adding requests to the scope of the project, and fair in how they priced everything. The entire job was scheduled to take 3 days, but ended up taking 4-1/2. Part of that is because I added to the scope. Part of it is because they work carefully and deliberately and make sure they're doing it right. We're very happy with the work done, and confident of its quality.
Description of Work: Created 2 new circuits (one for office; one for washer/dryer). Rewired several sockets controlled by central switch. Rewired pull-chain light to connect to existing switch. Ran and secured 200 feet of speaker wire. Installed new doorbell, new ceiling light fixture, 4 dimmer switches, and 3 regular switches. Grounded and replaced approximately 15 plug sockets. Installed numerous new sockets. Relocated phone jack.

He provided excellent service, and understood the simple and the more complicated aspects of electrical wiring.
Description of Work: A worn-out bulb which lights the entryway of my house had to be replaced. It was in a difficult location to reach. Two sets of light switches also needed replacement. I asked that he check outlets in the upstairs bathroom, the laundry room, and my home office.

When I contacted Ike by phone he offered to look at the job and provide an estimate the next day. Because I live in a TIC and we have a lot of approval process, it took several days to have the estimate okayed by everyone. Ike checked in and came to complete the job within two days. He did an excellent job installing the light.

Ike's was absolutely fantastic !! Very professional, very nice, and excellent craftsmanship on placement of the new outlet, as it was a tight squeeze to place it where it won't interfere with the cables, pipes, etc...I have had bad experiences with craftsmen over the years and this has been the best experience to date- so I am not an easy to please person necessarily- as my significant other would agree.
Description of Work: Created an new electrical outlet for wall mounted flat panel TV, diagnosed our front door buzzer problem and consulted for reassessed lighting options. IN the pictures- WE created all the holes in the wall due to the large consumer electronics store mounting guys being truly horrible- we had to rerun all the cables, remount the television and so therefore the swiss cheese wall- but Ikes only created one hole !!

Overall, the problem was fixed, and as there was some time left in the 2 hour minimum, Ike also advised us on a couple of other repair issues, which was helpful.
Description of Work: Troubleshooting a faulty circuit. The problem was that I hadn't removed a tab from a replacement electrical outlet that I had installed, which caused two circuits to be linked. Ike didn't find the problem during his initial inspection; only when I tried a switch again did the problem become more obvious.

Our gas furnace went out the evening of Dec. 26 and we suspected it was an electrical problem -- a holiday week when it's hard to reach anyone. Ike responded promptly to our initial phone call the next morning and was at our house just a couple of hours later. He quickly assessed the problem, fixed it and made other recommendations that would help the aging wiring in our home. Excellent job. Excellent service.
