They figured out a complex wiring situation in my ceiling which was my primary concern. Though I did have to add another screw to the bracket after they left so that the light would be flush with the ceiling. Wasnt really necessary, but I wanted it to lay flatter if possible. (I also think the light manufacturer is more responsible for this though!) Overall very friendly and expedient. They were also very accommodating and precautious given the COVID situation right now. Overall very friendly, relatable, reasonable, and genuine. I do wish they were more accommodating to use of credit cards, but thats nothing major.

The man that came out was a seemingly nice guy but he didn’t fix any of my problems. He didn’t check to see if outlets worked or not and promised to come back to replace a light switch and hot tub light.... he hasn’t returned or communicated with me and has fixed nothing.
Description of Work: Needed pool fixture replaced and outlets replaced that were not working

Description of Work: We purchased a new gas cooktop and he told us we didn't need him to come out just to inspect it since it was installed by professionals and we had no problems!

Description of Work: It is almost impossible to get in touch with a person when calling the office. All calls seem to go to voicemail, including one at which I was waiting for the workmen who were 45 minutes late. Their work was fine, reasonably (but not cheaply) priced, but communication was a challenge.

While the company did eventually answer our calls, the lady wouldn't allow me to finish telling her the work we needed done and seemed to be in a rush to get off the phone. Needless to say, they never even managed to come by for an estimate. We surmise that they must be screening for specific kinds of work they wish to do, perhaps the most lucrative for the least amount of effort? Quite unprofessional. We will not be contacting them in the future.
Description of Work: We have numerous electrical projects that are beyond our ability to do ourselves and we needed a professional.

Tree damage cause the service to be changed. This required work beyond what I could do because it is a rental house. This type of repair I could have done otherwise. Bids were twice as much as I paid. New codes would have to been done except that this was storm damage and did not require upgrades. Work was done when scheduled. The work was clean but some grounding for other services (cable and phone) had not been re- connected. When told they came out and made these connections.
Description of Work: Storm damage caused the electrical service meter box and weather head replaced. Did about 5 bids and he was the best. Do get bids in writing. His bid did go up somewhat from the first quote but it was a off the head estimate and the difference was not significant.

They came, they fixed, we paid. I was very satisfied that the work was done well and the price was fair. I've used them twice, and will use them again when I need electrical work done.

There was a GFI plug in our garage that we didn't know about. After learning that we had the roof and soffits powerwashed the day before the problem started, this electrician found a GFI plug in the garage that we had missed (we had already reset the 3 plugs inside the house). We also have two outdoor electrical outlets and he discovered they were both dead. CAUSE: The electrician believes that one of the outdoor outlets got some water in them, tripping all of our GFI plugs (which is what they are designed to do). Apparently, this is a common problem when homes are powerwashed. He was here for only about half an hour and did not overcharge us (he even gave us a discount). He was very respectful and efficient. We will not hesitate to call this company again if we ever need electrical help.
Description of Work: Found and fixed a problem that had left us with dead electrical outlets in both of our bathrooms. A handyman came the day before and couldn't figure out the issue. Other electricians did not even respond to our calls, but a man from George Grimm came to our house less than 24 hours.

No services were performed for this review because no one ever called to schedule those services.
Description of Work: I used Grimm Electric about 3 months ago and they responded promptly and completed the work. I had an outlet that was not working. It cost $80. I mentioned that I had other work that needed to be done in the near future and they said to call anytime. Well, that time came and I called. I received a call back that after noon and was told someone would call to schedule a time. That call never came. After 5 days, I have given up and plan on calling someone else.

We had them out to give us an estimate on a whole-house rewiring. They rescheduled several times, then they came out, but they never sent an estimate and did not respond to several calls asking what had happened and if/when they would send the estimate. We had heard good things about them and really wanted to use them. We had a total of 4 electricians come out; we wanted to use Grimm if their estimate came in reasonably. Their unresponsiveness held up our project.
Description of Work: Asked to give us an estimate on a whole-house electrical upgrade; they looked at the job but did not send an estimate or respond to us when we asked what happened.

It went very well. They I received a phone call them about 90 minutes after my request, saying someone could come 'right away' if that was convenient with me. It was, they arrived promptly and had the problem fixed in about 15 minutes.
Description of Work: One circuit was not getting electricity. I had thought it was a circuit breaker, so I installed a new one with no success. So I called Grimm Electric. They came and quickly located a faulty outlet in my daughters bedroom. They replaced it with a new one, and now everything works fine.

They come when they say they are going to come. Their prices seem to be on par with everybody else’s prices. Once they fix something, we do not have to worry about it.
Description of Work: George Grimm Electric Inc is an electrical company we have been using for about 14 years. They re-wired the electrical line going out to the pool pump about 6 months ago. They also put in a couple of new ceiling fans.
