Fantastic job by the team at Bolt Electric! Great experience!
Description of Work: Installed switchleg for 2 ceiling fans, 2 pancake boxes, ran wire through ceiling panel beams for the fans, added 2 outlets, 1 switchleg for upper string lights, and pulled permit. Collaborated effectively with the contractor team who were onsite building the screened enclosure with insulated roof.

They weren’t the cheapest around but the work quality was top notch. The project cost me more than i wanted in part because i didn’t think to ask for the toyota components when upgrading my electrical panel so i ended up getting a Tesla.

Jonathon came out and gave me an estimate on electrical work. He was the most forthcoming, honest, concerned, professional electrician I have seen in years! If other estimates come close to Bolt's I will certainly hire Bolt.

Our technician was very knowledgeable and personable. The repair was pricier than expected, but not outrageous. Our only drawback is that we had one outlet which worked prior to the repair which now does not, and it would cost us several hundred dollars to fix.

Joel did a great job. He was thorough and quick. I could tell from his work that he knew exactly what he was doing.
Description of Work: I needed a panel change. The electrician showed me me that my panel was corroded and it was causing fault in my electrical system. Joel came out and changed my panel. He was was very knowledgeable and very professional with his work. Bolt Electric went above and beyond to insure the safety of our electrical system and my family. I would recommend Bolt Electric to everyone.

Bolt Electric is a wonderful, professional, responsive, fair price company! You really couldn’t ask for a better company for electrical work! Called Bolt Electric number and thought I was calling a Clearwater location as I live in Seminole, FL, so I was surprised when I realized the electrician Zack had come from Sarasota, but I am within their service area. Zack said they work in Pinellas County all the time, very normal for them. Bolt Electric was great in all respect of scheduling and electrician was on time. Their pricing was better than the other two companies I requested quotes from and extreme professionalism when they came to my home. Greatly appreciated. Bolt was wonderful in sending electricians who put up with my year-old puppy who thought Zack was his new play toy and was very kind to put up with the puppy, while trying to preform electrical work. Only let puppy drive him crazy for a few minutes, but he was so kind to be so nice about Finn wanting to play with him. I don’t write a lot of reviews, because I don’t want to write something bad about a company. It seems so many want to hurt a company, when not necessary and I don’t write good ones unless company has been truly wonderful! Believe me Bolt Electric of Sarasota is a wonderful company because of their professionalism, expertise and great prices!

Stay far away from this company. I had three electricians come out to verify why i was not getting power to my pool pump. Bolt made claim that my electrical wire were of the wrong size which could cause a potential fire and most likely melted the line in the home. they stated it would cost just under 3 thousand to repair. Two other companies came out and verified that the wires were of correct size and major repairs were not needed. the problem actually ended up being the pool pump as their was a supply of electricity running to it. When i called bolt to let them know of the unethical behavior they denied that anyone in their company would do such a thing and got mad at me for calling them out. Clearly they encourage this type of behavior among their staff and will stand by it. stay clear

Response from Bolt Electric
We were shocked to hear from this customer and how irate he was. This customer was given a free estimate on the same day he reached out to our company regarding his issues he was having with his pool equipment. We sent one of our highly knowledgeable and skilled electricians immediately to evaluate the customer's situation, as he was worried about his pool not running. We deemed that an "urgent situation". When the customer called in this morning to explain the information gathered from the 2 other companies he received quotes from, he was irrationally angry and accusatory. We most certainly did not "lie" to the customer, nor did we say we stand behind that type of behavior, because we most certainly do not. Mistakes are made, human errors occur. It is inevitable. If a mistake were made on our behalf, we would seek a solution to rectify it immediately. As we were attempting to better understand what this customer was yelling at us through the phone, he hung up before we were able to offer to ask what he would like us to do to better resolve the situation. The quote we provided included installing a pool sub-panel, which is always recommended with pool equipment. It is a suggestion, not something that MUST be done. The customer was told by other companies he does not need one, and that is the route he has chosen to go. We would have been more than willing to come back out and verify the concerns the customer had with our quote.

Nice guy, but clearly a salesman and nothing more. Sure, he may have been an electrician at one point in his career, but sales is his go-to now. With that being said, I cannot recommend anyone use this company based on pricing alone. Looking at the cost of parts, it was no more than $500 retail. I provided the outlets and the fixtures to be replaced. The job was estimated to take 2-3 hours to complete. That means $3500 was for labor or $1,167.00 per hour. That isn't fair.

Response from Bolt Electric
We regret to hear this customer feels this way. As explained, we do not charge per hour, we charge per job. There is no way to break down labor costs since we do not have one. This customer is selling his home and was quoted to install some customer supplied switches and customer supplied lights, along with: replacing an electrical panel, ground system, surge protection, testing power to all receptacles, removing double taps in the main panel, as well as the permitting and inspection fees. The materials to be supplied by Bolt Electric are top of the line. If this customer were to proceed with the work quoted - the material cost alone would greatly exceeds $500, we are unsure of where this customer has gotten their information on electrical supplies/materials. Bolt Electric has standard & fair pricing. We would be happy to speak with the customer regarding the quote he was given and answer any questions they may have regarding pricing and to help them better understand exactly what the job entails.

NO SHOW. Called 10 minutes after appointment time to reschedule for the Friday. Said they had a computer scheduling glitch. Appointment was on Monday and I'd already taken 4 hours of vacation time from work to be there. I told her I could not put this off again and take another 4 hours off and hung up. I called back and asked to speak with a manager. Katie was extremely rude told me she was and would not allow me to speak with the owner. She then said, it was because 2 employees called in sick. When I called her out on the computer scheduling glitch, she back peddled. I may be sensitive because this is the 2nd contractor from Angies list to do this to us in the last week, but I'm quickly learning DO NOT TRUST THE RATINGS on Angie's list for these listed companies.
