Per Angie's List, I could supposedly receive a free quote for this minor job. They would not give me a quote. All they did was say that they would charge $89.00 to come and give me a quote. The $89.00 would be applied if I used them. If I don't, I'm out the $89.00. That is NOT a free quote.

Hi [Member Name Removed], we'd like to thank you for sharing your feedback with us. It is our goal to achieve your 100% satisfaction. Our Angie's List profile does state that we do not provide free estimates. It is not our goal to overcharge any of our customers, but we try to thoroughly assess the situation and get to the root of the issue so that we cover all bases and offer our clients a reliable fix instead of just a quick fix. Our guarantees are more than just words. It's unfortunate to hear that you were dissatisfied with the service fee. We've shared feedback with management to help ensure that our team is providing the best in customer service. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to me at any time - sarahn@dalconelectric.com - Or give us a call at 408-278-1809. Best regards, stay safe and well. Sarah Nguyen

Although a 30 amp stove was to be installed and we had the correct wiring the company (GE Cafe) provides a 50 cable. The 30 amp plug would not work. Electrician had to return and put in a 50 amp receptacle plug.

Very punctual and professional. However they quote ball park $1,500 than received the estimate next day for $2500. That's thousand dollars different. I honestly don't think the small job cost that much. I'm impressed they were fast to respond and covid 19 ready with glove, mask, shoe guard. The estimate was way over my budget no fault to them.

It took a couple of weeks to get an appointment. Technician was knowledgeable, courteous and professional. Troubleshooting the fixture was quick, but our wiring was old and needed some adjustment for differences in the ground wiring in the new fixture. Technician was able to identify and negotiate this. Pricing is a bit high.

Carlos is the man! He took care of my family and transformed our house. Jack was the electrician doing most of the work. He constantly checked to make sure we were happy with the work and they didn't take any shortcuts. They even fixed some exposed wire that we didn't even know about. Great service. I would definitely call these guys again. Do yourself a favor and ask for Carlos and his crew.

Excellent. It started with Anna on the initial phone contact. She was friendly and welcoming. James came by to look at the job and provide an estimate which we accepted on the spot. We felt he was most credible and liked his courtesy and friendliness. The job was scheduled for the next day. Javier was first to show up and he was most friendly and respectful. He protected the counter tops with plastic and removed the old lights. James then came with all of the required supplies. The two of them worked very well together and the job was completed to our total satisfaction. After the cleanup, the only thing we noticed were the new lights. Good job.

James quickly isolated the cause of the problem, a defective GFCI. His investigation was thorough, making sure all elements in the circuit were working. He was very courteous and professional, and very mindful not to track dirt into the house. I would definitely hire again.
