Bobby did a good, solid job. I am very happy with the workmanship. The price was with an Angie's List coupon which saved me about $150.

Description of Work: He installed a ceiling fan which I had purchased. He was not planning on having to go through 12" studs which took him much longer than anticipated. Also had another outlet made in the sunroom which involved going through solid concrete. He did give me a prior estimate of $600 which did not include the 2 hours I had already paid for. He worked steadily and was one of the few workers that I have encountered that I was comfortable leaving him alone while I attended a class. Not often one can find such honesty. His repair work on the ceiling will make it easy for my daughter to repaint. He cleaned up any mess that he made which was a blessing. Yes, I would recommend him in a flash. I might have gotten it done cheaper but... you get what you pay for !!!

Description of Work: I was very pleased with the outcome of the services and materials supplied by Essential Electric. There were a couple of chores I had done, but the added cost of the visit was the cost of the new under counter lighting in my kitchen and hard-wire smoke/carbon monoxide alarms in my rental apartment. All went well and I would recommend Essential Electric again.

Description of Work: Bobby was on time, professional and efficient. He completed a number of small electrical projects which I had been putting off for some time. He showed up at the scheduled time, had all of the tools and materials needed to complete the projects and performed the work in a professional fashion. He was also very pleasant to work with and made some helpful suggestion as to how the projects should be done. When the work was completed, he cleaned the work areas completely and removed all trash and other debris. I will certainly use Bobby again for any future electrical services I might need.

Description of Work: I wanted an exterior outlet put in. The owner, Bobby, came and helped me figure out the best way to accomplish the task and not have it be conspicuous. He did the work himself, and I was very pleased with the quality of his work and his efficiency.

He was punctual, polite and cordial. He brought all the tools he needed to do the job, was efficient and professional. He removed the existing light fixture then made sure the new light fixture was where I wanted before installing. He cleaned up after himself and didn't leave a bit of dust behind. I was very happy with the service and his easy going, polite demeanor. Would definiitely use again.
Description of Work: removed light fixture in kitchen and replaced with new fixture.

WOW! What a great experience. Great quality and service. One of the best experience I have had with a contractor. EVERYTHING when exceptionally well. Bobby access the work to be done, got to work and clean-up after he was done. Anyone who is considering getting electric work done ~ this is the one to choose. Service is A+ The only way you can go wrong is that you dont hire Bobby Matthews (Essential Electric).
Description of Work: Move an electric outlet / added a overhead light fixture

He was prompt and quick, without being rushed. Cleaned up thoroughly, and took off his shoes upon entering the house. Highly recommended.
Description of Work: Bobby Matthews from Essential Electric installed a ceiling fan in our soon-to-be daughter's room. He was prompt, professional, the work was excellent, and he honestly described everything he did and how the cost of the installation and his work was broken down.

Bobby finished a job early the same day we called and decided to squeeze us in instead of us having to wait another week for our scheduled appointment. We were very grateful as this weekend is supposed to very hot. He was very friendly and respectful even though what everyone thought would be a quick fix turned out to be a 4 hour job. He didn't charge us for the time he had to sit in his truck and wait for a thunderstorm to pass so that he could get back on the roof and was honest and pleasant to talk to.
Description of Work: Bobby came out to finish the electrical work on a swamp cooler we installed the previous weekend.
