I was referred to this company by Hunter for a warranty issue with their ceiling fan. Peter Lontakos came out on 12/29/17. He determined I was to get a new receiver at which time they said they would order it and replace it once it arrived. They would charge Hunter for the service call and it would be no charge to me. I have left 3 messages and they have not returned my call. It is now 01/29/18 and I still have no repaired fan. According to Hunter, he has never placed an order for the part.

Response from PETER LONTAKOS ELECTRICAL SERVICES
I do warranty service for Casablanca Fan Company. Casablanca during the month of December changed the warranty process and paper work, and with the changes came a few issues. I did stop by and checked the ceiling fan in question, installation was fine the issue was with the electronics controlling the fan. I did fax the info as required, more than once. The faxes go somewhere and then they get back to the service center, well these work order never got to where it was supposed to go. The customer talks to customer service and I talk to tech service two different departments, with two different stories. Mike from tech service called me and said he found the faxes, I asked him to call the customer, he did the following day and the issue had been resolved by another company. The month of January was especially difficult everyone in my company was sick with the flu, seemed like the whole month. I'm glad the customers fan issue has been taken care of.

We spent almost $5000.00 to have all lighting fixtures replaced which was a painful process due to having to call several times no one ever calls you back and never on time. They agreed to replace our outside lighting as well and I have tried for 3 weeks to get a hold of them and once again they NEVER called me back. I'm calling someone else.

They repaired the problem on the SAME DAY I called, sent a copy of the completed work order to my insurance company and didn't even charge me extra $$ for the emergency call!

They were very prompt. They came out on time and prepared. Cleaned up after themselves using their own equipment, even though I had a shop vac right there. They said "No, we'll just use ours." They were very polite. Their work was done according to the estimate. There was no variation, no up-selling or anything like that. They actually came out three times. The third time, I called them to switch the light switches from one wall to the other, I was in a rush because of the remodeling, and I needed it done immediately. They came out that afternoon. Actually, it was the owner who came out to move the switches. It was great. I was 100% satisfied with them. They came in, I pointed out what I wanted and where I wanted it, and got the job done right away. They had three guys come out, and they did everything as fast as possible with minimal damage and minimal mess.
Description of Work: They added several outlets and a line for an additional light. (They came out twice, actually.) The second time they switched a light switch from one wall to an adjacent wall. They also re-wired the jacuzzi (moved the cables from one side of the house to another).

The guys from Peters crew did an awesome job! I live in Nevada and was trying to get my mothers electric issue handled for her, she lives in NPR, Florida. I would definitely recommend Peter Lontakos Electric!
Description of Work: The initial visit concluded the the issue was in the meter from the electric company. The repairman then called the electric company to inform them of the issue. Upon inspection from the electric company it turned out to be on the homeowners side of the box. Something like a "bolt in the can"...? Peters crew came back that day and repaired the issue and credited the initial visit charge.

They had to install the electric box first and had to bring the wiring over from half way across the house through the space in the vaulted ceiling. They knew what they were doing. No problem. Not easy, but no problem. Two very nice people. We were very pleased.

Our Casablanca fan (7 years old) with wall outlet intelli-remote stopped working. I knew problem was with fan unit and not the remote because i swapped out identical control for another fan and still no operation. The Casablanca corporate service department suggested Lontakos as an authorized local service company. Casablanca also told me the motherboard model we had was no longer made and we would have to get the current model installed along with a new remote. However, Lontakos had our existing motherboard model in stock, so no new remote needed. Their service man showed up early and repair work was done quickly, and clearly was by someone very experienced with Casablanca fans. He had the whole fan disassembled, repaired and reassembled in no time. Their charges were reasonable and we are very very happy with all aspects of the job. Highly recommended for any Casablanca fan issue.

In addition to other electrical work, Peter works with Casablanca fan company repairing their fans both in and out of warranty. I had contact Peter after receiving my newly purchased fan won't work. Peter took the time over the phone to discuss possible problems. Once we had exhausted all possibilities he scheduled a call to come out. Peter arrived at the agreed upon time, and quickly remedied the problem. Afterwards Peter took the time to discuss other project I had.Unfortunately the fan had another issue for which I called Peter. Once again he was on time and quickly fixed the problem. Peter is the type of electrician we are all looking for (or will be looking for). On time, extremely knowledgeable, personable, he explains things in laymen terms, and patient. I am looking forward to using his services in the future.
Description of Work: I had purchaed a new fan that didn't work out of the box. Peter handles Casablanca fan repairs under warranty. Peter came twice to fix two seperate problems.
