shawn the owner came out to give me an estimate on a whole home electrical revamp on our new home. he was very knowledgeable and i felt confident he absolutely knew his business. He was also courteous enough not to charge me his estimate fee because he had been running a little later than scheduled time. i needed one job done rather quickly and he was able to accommodate us.he switched out two light/fan switches...he was quick, efficient and left the job site cleaner than he likely found it. i would absolutely use shawn again and when i'm ready to do my whole house electrical revamp he is the guy i'm calling.
Description of Work: had two light/fan switches moved.

He arrived in the morning, identified the broken circuit breaker and replaced it. He also gave us information regarding the aging panel, which we've decided to replace. We have complete faith in Shawn's expertise and recommendations.
Description of Work: We noticed a crackling in the electric panel late one night. We turning off the main circuit breaker and called Shawn first thing in the morning. Although he was on a job, he agreed to come over that morning.

Shawn and his assistant arrived on time. They started right in with the replacement even though with the electricity turned off, they had to figure out working in the dark. The job was done efficiently and quickly and the charge was exactly the estimated amount. We have used SC Electric in the past and would never call anyone else. If there's a down side to Shawn's excellent work, it is that his service is so popular, it took several weeks to get this appointment. However, the one time we had an emergency, he came right out.
Description of Work: We had an outdated breaker box that had to be replaced.

Very pleased with this company every step of the way. It turned out I needed the work done rather quickly and Shawn was able to complete the job on a very short deadline. I found this company on Angies List and was impressed by their rating. I see why they have such a wonderful reputation. As far as I'm concerned, I have found the right electrical company for me. The next time I need electrical work done, I will be contacting S.C Electric!!
Description of Work: Needed an outlet installed outside on pool deck for a sauna. A light fixture also needed to be removed and "capped' off.

I got a notice from my insurance company, telling me that my insurance would be cancelled in two weeks because I had fuses and an aluminum wire listed on my homeowner's inspection report (which they'd had for over a month, and also had when they wrote the policy). I frantically searched the reviews on Angie's list and chose S.C. Electric, Inc. because of the large number of excellent reviews. I spoke with Shawn, telling him about the urgency of the situation, and he was able to come by the very next day and figure out what needed to be done. Before coming, he explained that there was a $50 service charge for coming by, and that that cost would be applied to the cost of anything he did, which I thought was more than fair. He said that it would be quite expensive to replace the fuses with circuit breakers, but thought he might not have to. I had an inground generator with a transfer switch that had a circuit breaker for the house power, and he thought he might be able to bypass the fuses and use that circuit breaker as the service disconnect for considerably less money. He checked with the city of Hollywood to see if they would allow this, and whether or not he would need to pull a permit. Fortunately, the chief electrician approved of this option and did not require a permit, so Shawn was able to quickly complete the repairs. He saved me a bundle of money, and this speaks volumes for his integrity. I know nothing about electricity, and he could easily have told me it required a rewiring of the panel and replacement of the fuses with a circuit breaker, which would have cost over $1000 more ($1500-$2000 is what the home inspector estimated it would cost to replace the fuses with breakers). He went out of his way to save me money, as well as going the extra mile to make sure that everything was approved by the city of Hollywood. I also asked him to wire in and install a ceiling fan in a room where there wasn't one, and again, he could have charged considerably more money if he wired it into the wall switch as I initially requested, but he explained that would take more time, and that I could easily buy a remote to operate the fan. Again, he suggested the most cost effective option, even though this was basically taking money out of his own pocket. He and his assistant did a beautiful job on everything. They're licensed professionals, always arrive on time, try to find the most cost effective method, and do excellent work. Need I say more?
Description of Work: Removed fused disconnects from the service connection so that the main transfer switch from the generator is now the service disconnect for the house. Changed an aluminum ground wire ground wire to copper. Wired in and installed a ceiling fan.

Sean arrived at the designated time, found the faulty outlet in a matter of minutes, swapped it out and was on his way, after giving me a little gift.
Description of Work: Several outlets in my house were not working. It was a bit of a puzzle but Sean and his trusty assistant quickly found and replaced the faulty reset outlet and now everything is up and running. Oh, and he always leaves a little gift, how cool is that! I have used S.C. Electric several times and am always very pleased with the service and the price, he is prompt, fast and reasonable. He knows his stuff, that is for sure.

We first contacted Shawn after reading the stellar reviews on Angie's list. We were not disappointed. Shawn exceeded my expectations. He was punctual and professional from the time we first met for the estimate to the completion of the job. The work was professional, neat and clean. You could not even tell that someone had been working in our house after they left. In addition, Shawn had a great personality. I would highly recommend Shawn to anyone in need of electrical work. We will definitely use him again!
Description of Work: We had numerous electrical items repaired/replaced at our new home. These items included. Rewiring garage and several outlets to bring up to code. Remove and replaced lighting including under cabinet and LED lights. Remove and replace ceiling fans.

Sean was scheduled for 9 am Tuesday, March 27, 2012. He called around 8:20 saying he was 'running early.' A pleasant surprise because it is usually 'running late.' Sean and Demetrius jumped right into the work when they arrived and very competently performed all of the above duties. Sean was able to save us some money by routing the new line for the microwave with the refrigerator. Sean also corrected some decades-old electrical problems very quickly and professionally. We're glad Sean and Demetrius helped us with our projects and feel confident in the results.

See above, I would definitely use them again.
Description of Work: They were punctual and very professional, the evening before they called again to give me an exact time when they would be arriving. I had a problem with all the electrical outlets in the Master Bedroom, which turned out to be caused by a faulty smoke detector in the hallway. The electrician (Shawn) replaced the smoke detector and a faulty outlet. He also checked everything was okay with the electrical box and , before he left , asked if we had any other electrical problems. He charges an hourly rate plus parts, this might seem more expensive than some of the electrical companies that offer a flat rate to come to the house but, when possible, he fixes the problem there and then so there are no extras. Also, I had waited in the day before for another electrical company (also on Angie's List), who said they would come between 11 and 1, but after countless phone calls, said they woulld only be able to come at 4.15, knowing that I was leaving the house at 4.30. I have a feeling it was a ploy to charge for 2 visits, even though they offered a low flat fee for coming out. After this experience, I much preferred knowing how much I was going to be paying upfront and I was impressed how reliable SC Electric were.

About a year ago , I had a problem with the lights dimming on half of my house and called three electrical services to get someone one in to solve the problem. Two of the companies gave me a quote of about $100 to come out and determine what the problem was. Shawn asked questions and then suggested that it sounded like an FPL problem and that I should call FPL before I paid him to come out to fix a problem that he couldn't do anything about. I called FPL, it was their service problem and they came out and fixed it. I was so impressed that Shawn was so honest that I kept his name and number in case of future problems In March, an outdoor receptacle went bad, Shawn came out, replaced the receptacle, and trouble shot another problem for me. He checked the circuit breakers and panels inside and outside, was thorough, made good suggestions, was professional, and charged just the amount he quoted for the service call. He did not charge for the receptacle because it was used and he did not have a new one in the truck. I now have his card and will call only SC Electric in the future

Shawn showed up on time and reviewed with me the work to be done. He immediately began to work and in no time he had the job quickly and expertly completed. I asked him about returning at a later date to relocate a cable line which he advised against due to the good quality of the existing line. He actually saved me $ today! I would highly recommend him and will definitely call him for my future electrical needs.

My husband and a friend tried previously to install two ceiling fans (one interior and one exterior). Unfortunately, when they tried to turn off the breaker for installation, they were unable to isolate the power down to a single switch. Therefore, the electrical wiring was a bit more complicated than expected. Shawn came out and quickly determined the issue and installed both ceiling fans as needed. He also looked into a few other lighting issues we had. Shawn was through, punctual and professional! I would have rated an "A" on price but when I returned to write this report (less than 24 hours from the service) I noticed a discount for 1st time customers of Angie's List. It would have been nice to receive the discount on pricing!

Shawn had to submit the plans to the village and was approved faster than any other contractor Ive had, The installation was a lot of work-digging the trench to code depth and drilling thru concrete walls as well as bringing the wires thru the attic. Shawn was totally knowledgeable and professional throughout. It took a day and a half because the inspector had to check the depth of the trench before he could finish. Everything was put back,cleaned and swept. Finding a good electrician for this job was the reason I joined Angies list. I had two other estimates for this job but both didnt even seem sure how to do it and suggested I not pull a permit. I decided the house electical wiring was not a place to cut corners and found S.C electric here. The difference was amazing. Shawn immediately came up with a cost effective plan and I had confidence all would go well-it did.

We are very happy with the work. They were prompt, did they work efficiently, cleaned up everything as they went, finished quickly, overcame some unexpected obstacles, and the total cost was less than I anticipated. They even installed the ceiling fans which we had not expected. We have hired Shawn to do some additional work. You couldn't ask for more!
Description of Work: We got estimates for a variety of electical services. We had been told by a different electric company that we had to replace the electric panel, for an exorbitant amount of money. In addition to that we needed 3 ceiling fan outlets installed, added a receptacle in the kitchen, and a switch for undercounter lighting. Shawn did a thorough examination of the panel and found that it was actually in good working order and gave us an estimate for the work both with and without the panel replacement. We did not replace the panel as it was unnecessary.
