. Have called worker Jim and owner, Steve and neither have responded.Came first time and gave estimate of $70.00 for odd orders. Never showed on second appointment, but called to apologize. Called him three times before he responded. Came on second appointment and completed less jobs than estimated, but charged $90.00. Because I had purchased incorrect light for exterior I had to return to store to get correct light and he said to call once appropriate light purchased and he would return

The electrician was professional, arrived on time and presented me with an accurate service charge as promised on the phone. He determined the problem was not electrical so no additional charges. He recommended I call an appliance repair specialist to figure out what was wrong with the dishwasher. I would definitely use them again
Description of Work: Dishwasher was not working. Kept tripping the circuit breaker and I thought it was an electrical problem, so I called the electrician. Service call price was quoted. The technician arrived on time. He took the dishwasher apart and checked the electrical box. Did not find an electrical problem so there was no repair to perform.

Everything was fantastisc. Having never used Angies List before I called for assistance and told the operator what we were looking for, he walked me thru on the computer and we found exactly what we needed - a local RELIABLE/AFFORDABLE electrician - We called for an estimate and the next day we had our written estimate in hand. We ordered the fixtures, etc that we needed from local suppliers and then called Stephen Simpson Electric and arranged a mutual date for installation and repair. Not only did they arrive on time (for estimate and work), but Steve's employee, Mike, was knowledgeable, friendly, and courteous, as was Steve. We would recommend Stephen Simpson Electric to anyone needing any type of electrical work in the home.
Description of Work: Installed fans, numerous lights, as well as pendant lights, outlet boxes, dimmer switches, wiring and when asked, helpful recommendations.

See above.
Description of Work: Mr. Simpson came to my house to try to determine why a light switch was suddenly not receiving power. He did so even though his company is over an hour away, but he lives near me. He worked for an hour and determined that it would take an extensive investigation tracing wires through the attic and walls to find the problem. Since he needed at least one helper for this and his staff is at his company location, he couldn't help me. Also, he said it would be cheaper to get someone nearby. He recommended I call the electrician on the breaker panel. Even after all of the work he did, he didn't charge me anything! I was very surprised and needless to say, very pleased. He is an honest man - - too often a rarity these days.

After arriving at our weekend home we discovered a pipe had burst in the kitchen area and caused some extensive damage to our home. We have a stilt home and the water went everywhere. Our neighbors who keep an eye on our home for us said that one of our outlets was actually sparking so they turned the power off at the main breaker. Air conditioning is a must in Florida during the summer so we called around to get our electricity back on safely and quickly and get our house repaired. We called Simpsons Electric because of high reccomendations from 3 other people that had used them in the past with excellent results. Mr. Simpson himself answered the phone and came out that afternoon. He quickley assessed the situation, made his reccomendations and gave us a quote. We had had problems with tripping the breaker and flickering lights which is one of the reasons we decided to upgrade at the same time as having repairs done. After discussing all this with him and him carefully explaining all our options we asked him to start. After our approval he pulled the permits and started work the next day. We really appreciated his quick response, his proffessionalism, his attention to detail and his patience in explaining everything to us. His contract was clear and easily understandable and there were no surprise charges at the end of the job. He made a really bad situation so much easier to go through. We would highly reccomend Simpsons Electric without hesitation to anyone looking for quality electrical work.
Description of Work: Due to a burst pipe and extensive water damage to our weekend home, we had to have some rewiring and repairs done to our kitchen, laundry and great room areas electrical system. We had our old panel replaced and upgraded to a 200 amp panel. They replaced or repaired all the impacted wiring checked all the groundings and even installed a smoke alarm that should have been installed when the home was built but was missed during the original home inspection. Portions of our walls had to be cut into to access certain wiring and Simpsons electric repaired all of it to perfection. Simpsons electric pulled all the permits and called for all inspections and arranged to be there during the inspections which passed the first time without a hitch.

Simpson electricput flourecent lights in my garage. We agreed on a price and Steve stuck to the original price. They showed up on time and his workers were respectable people whom I felt comfortable with in my home!! They went right to work getting the job done not taking up my whole day!! They asked me where I wanted the lights and switches. They installed the lights and switches where I wanted them not where it would be easy for them!! They put in the extra effort sweeping the wire bits from the garage floor. Proffesional is all I can say to discribe Simpson Electric!! Now with the new lights I can see again!! I'm not as blind as I thought!!
Description of Work: Simpson electric put 8 foot florecent lights in my garage.

I was referred to Simpson Electric by a family member who praised their recent repair at their home. I checked some of the reviews on Angie's List prior to calling them and was a little apprehensive after reading the few reviews from several years ago regarding the unprofessional attitude of an employee named Corey. But my aunt insisted they were great and reasonable so I gave Simpson a call. The person who answered was extremely nice and professional. I told him I was referred by my aunt (whom he remembered) but mentioned my concern over a Angie's List review of someone named Corey. Mr. Simpson advised me that Corey was no longer employed by Simpson Electric and assured me that he could have someone out to me as soon as possible. Within 10 minutes I had a call back from the lead elecrician Michael. He was very courteous on the phone. I gave him a run down of my problem and he was out that afternoon. He was very nice, troubleshooted the problem and after agreeing on a price, he got to work immediately. His performance was professional and he fixed the problem as promised. I will definitley recommend Simpson Electric to friends. I have not had any problems since the repair.
Description of Work: Wires repaired in attic. Damage done by rodents. Also replaced kitchen plugs for me.

Corey came out and was very pleasant and engaging, looked around and was very positive about doing the work. I gave him a set of my plans from my architect. He said he'd get back to me with an estimate. Weeks go by, I hear nothing, I call Corey, I hear nothing. I call the office an leave 2 messages, I hear nothing. I gave up and hired someone else. Simpson Electric left me hanging and took a $25 set of my plans. Stay away.
Description of Work: Wanted an estimate on wiring a 2 car garage addition with a workshop.

Response from STEPHEN P SIMPSON ELECTRIC
This is really bad. I am so sorry. I see there are three reports here all concerning Corry. As you all know one bad apple will spoil the bunch and hiring the right people can often be a challenge. When they fail the result is an unhappy customer. Corry was a very good man in the construction field and as it turned out that was because he had constant supervision. Unfortunately for me I gave Corry the chance to work in the Service Department. Back then I trusted the guys working service to handle everything themselves as I was so busy in the construction field. They scheduled their own work and they were in charge of their own customers. Big mistake for me. I learned the hard way that most people actually do need serious supervision or they will stray right down the path of Complacency. Corry worked for about six months in the Service Department. I had few complaints about him and many fine reviews. I don't know what happened but I was forced to return him to our construction division. Simpson Electric has grown since 2006 when this report was filed. As you know we all learn by our mistakes. Please do not judge my entire company on the merits of one past employee four years ago. Please see all the AAAAA ratings we have that do not have "Corry" on them. Please be assured that this will not happen to you. When you call on the phone you will speak directly to me and I will personally handle your needs. Steve Simpson Owner

I am so sorry about this. If you have ever owned your own business you know that things go wrong. I don't know what happen here as it was some time ago and I am just reading this. I wish he had called back to our office so we could have figured out what went wrong. I know back then if the service man could not get the customer on the phone before he came out he would not go on the call.They were to leave a message for the customer to call the teck back and tehn get immediate service.
