I gave them a "C" rating because "N/A" was not an option. They never got back to me to discuss my project, so I really have no idea how to rate them. I wanted to see if what I wanted to do was feasible and get an idea of what kind of cost would be involved. I guess they weren't interested in pursuing this, which is OK. Probably saved us both an unnecessary phone call.
Description of Work: Add an outlet to an existing circuit.

Greg was quick in getting to us to do an estimate. Asked the right questions to help the project go smoother. Emailed an estimate. We then decided to do a couple of the projects. Called us to get an appointment quickly. Did the job for the price given. They were very professional and were on time. They even emailed a final bill of 0 dollars owed. The job looks professionally done. We have been very pleased with the results. The questions asked helped get us from having up to six switches to having only three.
Description of Work: Moved a fan switch to another wall and disconnected an outlet to a switch and installed recessed lighting with a dimmer switch

We were having trouble with breakers tripping. Greg &Brian came out the next day & evaluated the problem. Brian installed 2 new wall plugs for our fireplace heaters, added 2 GFI 20 amp breakers in the fuse box that feed into a new junction box. From the junction box new wiring was installed through the walls & basement. It was a tedious job. Brian worked non- stop all day. He also checked and replaced another defective breaker in the fuse box. He replaced 2 broken outlets in the house and installed 4 other GFI?s in the garage. Our house is an older home and the wiring is very complicated. Brian was able to figure it all out. We were very impressed with their electrical knowledge & patience. Everything was left clean after lots of drilling through wood & walls. Greg and Brian were easy to work and are great electricians!

Greg Whitehead is very competent and professional. He helped come up with ideas to work around old (insufficient) wiring. He works hard to accommodate us even when he is busy. I will definitely use him again.

Wanted to have garage front lights on timer, but porch lights on motion-sensor. Fort Collins Electric employee (Greg) learned both lights on same circuit. Greg suggested different fixtures for garage lights, explained what I needed, let me go to Home Depot (while he left for another job to return when I got back), was available by phone to answer my questions while I was at H.D.--even talked to the H.D. employee. On return, I decided that the change would be too complicated. Greg charged me for only 1/2 hour labor, even tho my and quot;projectand quot; took up more of his time. I appreciate his knowledge, service and advice. I would highly recommend this service to others. thanks~JH
Description of Work: Replace timer switch at front door. Look into other options for controlling garage front lights.

Went well. This was not a very dramatic issue. The main point was Greg was very polite, focused and handled the issue as one would hope to expect from an experienced tradesman. Good job and would recommend their service to everyone I know.
Description of Work: I had found a problem with intermittent power issues in portions of the house. Looking at the fuse box, nothing had popped, yet sparks could be seen through the cracks behind the panel. The following was completed; - Diagnostic activity to determine root cause of problem - Replaced main fuse breaker - Cleaned up wiring configuration when reassembling panel area

The experience was fine. The dimmer switch that he put on to the chandelier didn't work but we called him back. He back the same day and fixed that. It was a German chandelier and the light bulbs in America don't work in that. So we had to get some adaptors and then it took a lot to order them. When we got the adaptors we put all the light bulbs in and then we realized that the dimmer didn't work. The light went on but the dimmer didn't work, so we called him back couple of weeks later and he came the same day to fix the dimmer.
Description of Work: We used Fort Collins Electric Inc twice. First time was in September and then again in October this year. We had our fire place converted to gas so he had to do something for that and that was the first time. Then we had to call him back to fix a light in the back that didn't work and also to wire the ceiling to hang a chandelier.
