Eric Nordhoff of Dalcon Electric did an excellent job in my home. He was very professional while showing concern for my situation. His suggestions for a better way were welcome and they were done instead. I'm very happy and now my family has a permanent electrician to call upon in the future.

I received an estimate to install wiring for a dimable bathroom mirror. The agent was very nice and it seemed like company would do a great job. I didn't hire them as their quote was $1500. I found another electrician for $650.

Chris and his teammate Josh were superb electricians working in tandem with speed and efficiency. They were also very courteous and professional explaining all their work and any changes needed to the work order. They took initiative to ask questions to ensure our preferences were heard. And checked in often to ensure we were all aligned on our project goals.

Our technician was prompt, friendly, and got right down to work. He was quickly able to troubleshoot the problem and gave several options and advice for next steps to do the repair. Communication was clear and he set expectations well in advance of everything he did. Excellent experience and I would hire again for sure!

Dalcon was able to send Josh the same day - he arrived 30 min early, professional van, in uniform - and diagnosed the issue within minutes. Left to buy parts, had all work done within an hour. Very professional, wore a mask the entire time (as did my husband and I), and offered an Angie's list discount to help with the cost. I too was concerned about not getting a cost from the scheduler. I asked about a diagnosis charge, minimum hourly rate, trip charge, anything - she said there wasn't a diagnosis charge but the Technician will decide based on the job. Josh showed me their pricing sheets - with multiple ranges depending on job, distance, complexity, time to diagnose then resolve. The minimum trip charge to diagnose is $89 - reasonable - and the Technician has some leeway based on the overall job. Josh was very fair, explained everything, and left with the problem resolved. I would not hesitate to call DalCon again.
