change an outlet.
Description of Work: I live out of town and called about my rental unit having a problem with an outlet with a GFI that kept tripping and dishwasher would not run. Charles quickly answered my email through Angie's list and said he was available Friday (2 days later). I asked him to notify my tenants and he said no problem. On the morning of his visit I wrote him and told him I would be responsible for payment and if he could either bill me or call and I could give him my credit card number over the phone. His appointment was at 8:00am so I was expecting a phone call about 8:30am to 9:00am. Well I did receive a phone call, but it was not until 11:30am and Charles left me a message that he had checked the problem and it was an easy fix, so he fixed the problem and would appreciate it if I mailed a check for $120.00. I called my tenants and they said he was quick, professional and friendly. It is not often in this day and age that you find an honest and professional electrician. Especially one who will do the work and then ask for payment later. Charles Viereck Electric is my new go to electrician and I will be recommending him to everyone I meet with an electrical problem.

Description of Work: I received 2 emails from him and responded to both of them. I never heard back from him again. If he was not interested doing the work, he should have had the professionalism to at least send me an email back saying he was not interested.

Response from Charles Viereck Electric
We were discussing a troubleshooting job through the message center on Angies list. I always try to respond back by the end of my day. I simply forgot to make a note about our discussion and forgot about responding back. I was interested in the job. Once in a while I do forget to call back or email back someone. I am sorry for upsetting you. It was my error. I hope you found a good electrician to do your job. Charles

I don't give general quotes by email. I first must look at a job and then I either give a written proposal or verbal quote.

He was very direct, and helpful. He gave practical advice, rather than try to sell me expensive additions. He gave value added suggestions. He was very smart, knew his craft. He was efficient. I would use him again.
Description of Work: I had some electrical outlets installed in my backyard, along with a switch to activate timed lights. The original electrician wired it wrong. The outlets only worked on the timer. Charles came out, diagnosed the issue, fixed the wiring and then gave great advice for a kitchen remodel. He gave good suggestions for types of lighting to use in the kitchen and adjoining living room.

Very good. The fixture was bent during shipment, but Charles was able to reshape it to some degree and drill an additional screw into it so that no bend would show. Did good work and showed ability to think on his feet.
Description of Work: Installed new light strip (provided by customer) over bathroom mirror.
