Fairway Electric

No more flickering lights in the house and sizzling in the panel! All of the people I came into contact with from their company were very professional and courteous, and fixed my problem within a few days, including getting DWP to come before and after the work to make sure they were okay with the placement for permit purposes. While figuring out the problem they also fixed two wiring problems that a handyman had created when he installed a light and a bathroom fan (3 visits overall). I was happy with the outcome.

The work went on well. The owner of the company was very responsive in his work and did a good job. The price charged by them was good as well.

The didn't give the complete 10% discount that they were offering through Angie's List.

Two tenants in an apt showed me the problem: a loud noise like a high wind with a little bit of hum seemed to be coming out of an outlet. I called Fairway & Hollis was sent. Hollis was great. After a thorough examination, he conferred with his boss, Paul, & their 50 years of experience pinpointed the problem as water in the pipe (1928 construction, iron pipe carrying wires with cloth insulation). The first problem was condensation, then the wire boiled the water. Two more electricians were sent. They were great. They rewired & also made sure that the problem could not happen again. Everybody also made sure the circuit breakers were ok.

Very pleased with the work; crew arrived on time and went right to work with the repairs. Completed the job in about 4 hours. Crew was very professional and courteous.

Paul was very helpful and supportive answering all my questions. He is someone we will definitley use again and again.

I have used Paul and his team 3 times, Fixed circuit board once, hung a ceiling fan and lastly added new outlet. Each time was a good experience. Paul and his guys are pros. They get the job done at reasonable prices and are pleasant to work with. When I had the circuit board fixed they gave me options to do the job inexpensively or a complete overhaul. I chose the inexpensive route and have had no further problems.

The electrician came the first day, and seemed OK, and arranged to return next week. When he left, we realized that the lights he'd wired to the switch didn't turn off. We didn't worry too much - he was returning next week. I took the day off work, and he never came. I phoned, and they sent someone else around the next day, who fixed the lights that didn't turn off and finished the other work. This Saturday, we had a problem with our circuit breaker - it had tripped and the switch was broken. We called them again, and they came on Saturday morning and fixed it pretty quickly (I believe this was the boss). While he was there the electrician said our circuit board was old, and should be replaced, and that the casing for the wiring for the outside socket was not up to code. This was installed by them (!). On Monday, we noticed we had no hot water, and so a plumber came out. He spent 3 hours checking the hot water heater, trying to work out the problem. Eventually he worked out that one of the wires had come off, behind the cover of the circuit breaker. Possibly a coincidence. Probably not.

We subscribed to Angie's List because it was recommended by friends. We needed an electrician and we called Paul Harris of Fairway Electric. He sent someone to give us an estimate but then we could not get any response even after repeated calls so we are going to have to find another electrician but I"m afraid that my trust and faith in Angie's List has been compromised.

The workman (tommy) was great. They needed to make holes in the walls for the re-wire but worked as hard as they could to minimize the damage and repaired what they could. The work was done in a professional manner and was exactly what was promised. The owner (Paul) called to make sure we were happy and provides real customer service. They are great guys and I will defiantly call them again for repairs/improvements to my home.

They were great, and Paul's a good guy. It was a big project?several, in fact?so we got to meet both Tommy and Hollis, both of whom are very nice and professional. Everything looks good and got signed off by the city inspector without a problem. We had one or two little hiccups (to be expected on a whole-house overhaul), but Paul was very quick to make sure we ended up with what we needed. I recommend them?they do great work. Thanks, Paul!

Excellent overall experience. Started a little rocky when I scheduled the app't and the crew didn't show. Turned out to be a miscommunication with Paul, who apologized, and promptly sent an electrician over to the house. It turned out, however, that the electrician was alone and needed a co-worker for the job, and therefore had to re-schedule for the next day. They more than made up for any inconvenience the next day, showing up a few minutes early, with all the materials, and completing the job quickly. The crew was very professional, did a great job, cleaned up, and tested everything. I WOULD DEFINITELY USE THEM AGAIN FOR ELECTRICAL WORK.

Sunday afternoon I called the number given in Angies List. Talked to Owner and described problem as I understood it together with diagnosis provided by first contractor. Told Owner I wanted a second opinion. Owner arranged to have electrician at my house at 8 a.m. Monday. They diagnosed, gave me an estimate, and with my OK to proceed went to work. They checked all outlets in the house before they left. The Owner made a follow-up call that evening. I was given the 10% Angies List Discount and a 5% Senior Discount.

Our original kitchen recessed lights just weren't bright enough. Fairway changed the "cans" but we weren't happy with the intensity and color of the new lights. Actually, we became so discouraged during the process that we asked Paul to replace the new cans with the old original ones - but Paul, Jaime and Tommy took it on themselves to shop the market again and again till they found the light we would be happy with. They were DETERMINED to please us (and save us the additional expense) - and they did.. To simply say that they were accommodating would be a disservice to them; they really went above and beyond what one could reasonably expect.

Please see the above. It was a very, very positive experience. The contrast between Fairway and the electrical companies I've used in the past was unbelievable.

Called to have recessed light that was "smoking" checked. Electrician checked recessed lights and fixed sockets.

I found Fairway electric on Angie's list and it had good reports, so I called them. I spoke with Paul the owner on the phone and he gave me a good idea of what things would cost. We set a date and his electrician was on time and went right to work. Everything is fine and works great now.

After a brief miscommunication and apology about the time of service, an electrician was dispatched and arrived within the hour. He was friendly, professional, and courteous, and completed the work within a short period of time. The owner, Paul, called shortly thereafter to see if everything was satisfactory.

We selected Fairway electric after receiving several estimates from several other contractors. We were very selective due to the large scope of work that needed to be done. We ultimately settled on Fairway based on a combination of price, reviews on Angie's List and a positive experience during the interview/bid process. Once we made the selection they were very professional and always showed up on time and always cleaned up after themselves. The did a great job and were able to do all the work on time and on budget. They also did a great job of being able to do the work, including running new lines without having to break open existing walls (no small feat in an old house). We had a few change orders along the way (we added things to their list) and there was no problem. They help us out by telling us what recessed lights to buy so that we could purchase them ourselves and have them install them, which saved us money.

I as very pleased with the results. Tommy got the job done in a timely and professional manner. He was very pleasant and made some suggestions for other work that I plan to do in the future. I received a discount since I was an Angie's List member. I would definitely use Fairway Electric again.

Paul answered the phone himself when I called Fairway Electric. He asked for an email of the problem along with contact and job site location information. We agreed that the next day would be best to schedule, but I ended up calling him back within an hour, requesting an earlier time. He sent Tommy, one of his electricians out immediately, who arrived punctually on time as promised. Both Paul and Tommy were exceptionally polite and courteous. After checking the status of the circuit at the appliances, that indeed the circuit was dead, Tommy checked the breaker board, and discovered the failed breaker. Although he hadn't the correct replacement in his truck, he drove to our local neighborhood hardware store, got the right part, and installed and tested it. The service was fast, courteous and offered a level of quality superior to that of the previous electrician we had had to the house. Paul called later in the evening to ensure that everything was working okay, and to make sure any questions we may still have could be answered. Hands down, best electrician service and #1 in customer care. This works and I will give them my business in the future.

I spoke with Paul, the owner, on the phone and he asked me to e-mail him a description of the problems and said that someone would be out within two hours. Hollis arrived within two hours, was very courteous and fixed the outdoor light. For the fixtures that were burning the bulbs too quickly, he looked at the wiring, tightened some things up and suggested that the best first step would be to replace the fixtures. He said if we bought through him, it would probably cost more, so he suggested we shop around and then buy the fixtures for him to install at a later date. Later that evening, Paul called back to make sure we were happy and told us to contact him "24/7" if there were any problems. He also said if we had any trouble finding a fixture to contact him and he would look around and try to find us the closest match he could.

Very well. The technician was courteous and knowledgeable. He did the necessary work, competently.

Personable, arrived on time, worked quickly and efficiently, cleaned up after themselves. A supervisor followed up after the work was completed to make sure the work was done properly.
