I thought the estimate was high, but the other work they did was satisfactory. They were nice, clean, and timely.
Description of Work: They came to provide an estimate for me and ended up doing some other smaller jobs when they were here. They changed pool timer and changed out fluorescent light to regular light.

They arrived pretty close to the window I was quoted by Chris. Both technicians were very professional, quick and explained everything they were doing. I have used Grove's Electric in the past and because of our previous excellent service I called them again. I left a message on a Friday afternoon and the recorder said they would be out of the office until the following Monday. To my surprise, Chris called me on that Sunday and said he would have someone out the very next morning!
Description of Work: Installed 4-wire 30 amp plug for our dryer; installed 4-wire 30 amp cord; installed 30 amp 2-pole breaker and made sure all was labeled correctly. At their suggestion I installed Surge Protectors on both of our electrical boxes. I was going to "rent" the protectors from the electric company for a monthly charge, but now we own them and no additional charges through the years. They actually saved me money over the long run by suggesting that.

I loved working with Chris and John. They were very professional and knew what they were doing and they quickly and efficiently performed the service. They checked the pump to make sure it was working, found there was one pipe that wasn't glued appropriately, and even glued this pipe back for us. Overall, I am *very* satisfied with them and would gladly work with them again!!
Description of Work: We installed a pool pump over the weekend and the power to the pump was not sufficient for the new variable speed pump that we purchased. We had to call an electrician this morning in order to take care of the issue. We were told that we needed the following: Supply and install 30 amp GE double pole and breaker to circuit from garage panel to pool pump panel. Supply and instal 20 amp double pole breaker to pool pump. Supply and install T104 240 volt timer for pool pump.

The person who took my call was courteous and professional, and was able to set up an appointment immediately. They were able to perform same-day service, arrived within the estimated two-hour window, and called mid-window to update me on their ETA. Upon arrival, they explained the service policy, the expected charges, and estimated time to complete the job. The two electricians were friendly, courteous, and professional. They assessed what was needed to solve the problem, and made recommendations to improve safety beyond just performing the repair. They also informed me that the company performs many routine services on a flat-rate basis. They offered to install a whole-house surge suppressor, and let me know that as a flat-rate install, the price would be the same even if they didn't perform that install the same day. The work was completed quickly, and they made sure to leave everything clean and tidy. I would not hesitate to call again with my electrical needs, and I would gladly recommend them to others.
Description of Work: Performed troubleshooting, recommended GFCI outlets for sink area, recommended whole-house surge suppression. Installed two new GFCI outlets on the two circuits near the sink, installed a new switch for the garbage disposal (where the problem originated), and installed a whole-house surge suppressor at the breaker box.

Chris came out to address an electrical issue on my hot water heater that the warranty service could not identify/fix. He was on time, professional, and fixed the problem. I would definitely have him back
Description of Work: My hot water heater was blowing a breaker. As the water heater was under warranty, I originally had the warranty service out to diagnose/repair but they said it was an electrical problem and couldn't fix it. I called Chris who came out and tightened up some connections and resolved the issue.

They came on time. The guys knew what they were doing. They were very proficient and knowledgeable in electrical applications. They wanted to know if I had any other problems they could check out. They offered to put in a breaker system, and I would decide if I wanted that later.
Description of Work: I had an outlet that inoperable, they came out and checked it out and discovered that I needed a new GFCI outlet. They installed it and it's working fine.

We've relied on Chris Groves and his team to provide quality electrical services for several years. For this job, he once again provided a free, written estimate, arrived with his team on the date/time promised, and they took extra care to ensure that the new outlets were installed, tested and labeled correctly. We highly recommend Chris and his team!

Absolutely no complaints. This was my second time using their services and would not hesitate to recommend them.
Description of Work: The morning after an attempted break-in at my house, I called Groves Electric and told them what happened the previous night and asked if they could come install motion lights and light timer switches that day. He was great and worked me into an already full schedule as he sympathized with my sense of unease. The electricians that arrived were punctual, polite, efficient, and helpful.

They showed up with 4 guys exactly on time. I explained the job and they gave me an estimate. They devised a plan. 2 guys got up in the attic, 1 guy was the runner to get parts and cables and one guy did all of the finish work in the room. Within a hour and a half they were cleaned up and out with great work done. I am very happen with the work and they will be out to do further work at my house.

The total experience was excellent. They were always on time, or early. The crew was very professional and courteous (we had 4 in the house for most of one day), the owner was attentive, and collectively they performed the requested work as well as making suggestions on other things we could consider, such as the display cabinet lighting which we agreed to. They were obviously experienced and skilled as they carried out their individual activities (particularly dealing with an older home), and the end result was high quality. For example, though the landscape lighting was installed during the day, the fixtures were perfectly placed and required no adjustment once it was dark. And last but not least, as they were about to finish we discovered that our new dishwasher didn't drain. They all came back into the kitchen, put their heads together, and based on similar experience, solved that non-electrical problem at no extra charge. Highly recommended and would certainly use their services again.
Description of Work: We had purchased an older home that had been renovated and wanted to add some additional lighting plus make changes for switches and plugs. Over the course of multiple visits Groves installed landscape and security lighting outside, under cabinet lighting in the kitchen, dimmer switches in multiple locations, added electrical outlets where there were none, installed ceiling mounted light fixtures, and added ceiling pocket lights to a built in display cabinet.

They were awesome. They came before they said they were going to come because I was out of water and I could not use the pump. I came and hooked up a temporary line till they could come up and do the job. They went above and beyond in every aspect of the job. They were quick, efficient, professional and the nicest people I have ever dealt with. They answered my questions before I could ask them. I am going to use them for my rental house.

On 2/6/13 at time set for installation, Groves service electricians (Jon & Chris) showed promptly with ordered lights. Chris Groves (owner) came out to check on the progress of the job and assist as needed with the installations. It was discovered that when my 150 Amp Breaker Panel (circa 1977) was inspected, corrosion was found on some of the wire connections. I was advised that this make & model was listed as a possible fire hazard and not considered safe. Also noted was that the (2) disconnect boxes for my air conditioner were of the same make and age. Additionally noted, was the fact that my hot water heater in the garage was not correctly wired. Finally, (2) of the existing outside lights that were to be replaced were wired incorrectly and a possible fire hazard. Following work was completed: 1. a new breaker panel was installed; all inside outlets checked for power; panel box labeled with breaker connections 2.an internal surge protector was installed inside the breaker panel. 3. (2) AC disconnect boxes to my air conditioner were replaced 4. all wiring violations were corrected 5. (5) new outside lights were installed Jon & Chris were professional and friendly. They answered all my questions. Chris ( the owner) was on site intermittently to assess job and provided additional information as needed. I am please with the good job that was done and would certainly use Groves Electric again in the future for any additional electrical work I might need.
Description of Work: Contacted Groves Electric and left msg requesting call-back for services needed. Owner, Chris Groves, returned call the next morning and came out the same day to discuss our needs. We wanted 4 outside security lights replaced and 1 new porch light installed. He reviewed existing lights and then showed us catalog with options and we made selection. Chris said he would order the lights for us and call when they came in; he estimated it would take approximately 1 week. Spoke with Chris on 1/31/13; the lights ordered were in and appt was set for installation on 2/6/13.

We got Groves Electric info from Angie's List and also noticed it was listed under the Honor Roll in your magazine. We talked to the owner, Chris Groves, on the phone first and he then scheduled his electricians Jon & Eddie to come out and give us an estimate of the electrical work we needed done. We then scheduled them to return on Nov 20th and the work was completed in an excellent manner. First of all, Jon & Eddie were very nice to talk to and work with, giving us various ideas on how to accomplish the work in the best and most efficient manner.......Very Impressive Electricians. We were very happy with Groves Electric and will definitely hire them again in the future if needed.

Fine except as mentioned above.
Description of Work: Groves installed interior lighting, ceiling fans and replaced fire alarms. They did a fine job. The only disappointment is that one of the fans they replaced previously operated using wall switch. When they replaced the fan, we could only operate it using a remote control. The wall switch was not connected to the new ceiling fan. I asked about it, but the installer did not explain why and said they could not do it.

Although it may have been a misunderstanding they were a week late. Other than that their work and pricing are excellent! They gave me a quote for the work prior to starting and once finished I furnished a 10% off coupon and they honored it. Would definitely use them again but will make sure we both have the appointment scheduled for the same day and time!
Description of Work: Needed a whip from a new conference table connected to the electrical box in the floor. They replaced the electrical box with a bigger box and hooked up the wires. The work was done within an hour.

My husband recently plugged in our coffee maker only to see sparks come out of our kitchen outlet, which resulted in a burnt mark around the faceplate. Since our home is older, neither of us felt comfortable messing around with it. I called Grove's and Chris promptly answered the phone. He offered to send someone out that same afternoon and provided a three hour window in which his employees would arrive . The electricians arrived within the 3 hour window. They were both very friendly and professional. Much to my embarrassment, the "outlet" that had burnt was actually an extender plugged into the actual outlet. Once they removed the extender and flipped the switch in the circuit box, my outlet worked without any further service needed. Although this was a silly fix and did not require an electrician, I certainly plan to hire Grove's in the future as we complete projects in our home. I appreciated their honesty regarding the "problem" and their kindness in not charging me for the service call. I will recommend the company to friends and neighbors.
