The technician arrived from Belco. I explained my circuit breaker issue in the main panel which had arched and since they were they I mentioned a light switch that was giving my wife problems. The light switch issue was resolved very quickly with a replacement of the switch that was wearing out. The technician then began to troubleshoot the circuit breaker issue. He looked at the breaker, tested the power coming to the breaker, then started looking at the outlets on the circuit. After that didn't show an obvious issue, the technician started checking the wiring near the breaker. At this point the wire coming to the circuit was found to be broken completely apart from the arch. That was a relatively easy repair, but the technician continued to investigate and found and showed me the main common was partially cut from the arch (about 3-5 wires). While this probably would not have caused an issue, the technician wanted to find a way to solve the problem. With a good amount of physical effort and going through my crawl space he was able to get 3-4 inches of "slack" from the lines, cut the main common and power lines, reattach them to the panel and fully resolve the problem. In addition I saw him checking the connections of all the breakers and commons in the panel. The switch on one of the breakers was broken and the technician replaced that also to make sure everything was functioning correctly. After the house power was turned back on the technician checked the voltage to all circuits to make sure the panel was completely functioning. The technician was very professional, cleaned up after the work, was cautious not to spill or drop materials on our furniture and floors, and was very good at coordinating the power shut off with my family. I was very impressed with the completeness of his investigation of the issue and more importantly the repair to make sure everything was done properly and leave things better than when he arrived.
Description of Work: I had a breaker issue in my main panel. The circuit had tripped, when I reset it I saw a good sized arch behind the panel and the circuit breaker showed it was on but there was no electricity through the circuit. The issue was fully resolved.

They did a good job and I'd use them again! This was the first time I had used them, and I would use them again in the future as well as recommend them to others. There were no issues with scheduling, and they were right on time. I think the price was reasonable and I was satisfied with the quality of their work.
Description of Work: We had them do some wiring and install new lights.

The entire experience went well, from the point of calling Belco to the service being performed. The receptionist was very professional and good at gathering details of my issues. An appointment was set for just a few days later. The technician arrived earlier than scheduled, after calling ahead to make sure that would be OK. In the case of the ceiling fan that needed to be repaired, he offered a couple of options, one of which involved him going back to the shop to get a particular part (as opposed to us buying a new fan and having them install it later). We opted for the replacement part. The technician was very professional and pleasant. All in all, a positive experience and I would use them again.
Description of Work: Technician replaced two dimmer switches and repaired a ceiling fan.

I called Belco this morning because there was an outlet in my kitchen that smelled of burning electrical. I took the outlet cover off and saw sparks. The lady at Belco told me she would have someone there by 1:00. At 11:30 Tim Chastain called and told me he would be there by 12:20 and he was. I explained the problem and he started checking the circuits. He found the issue with the outlet after systematic checks all the circuits in the kitchen. He explained what happened and why it happened. During the explaination he suggested to move the refrigerator to a dedicated circuit. He adjusted his schedule to complete all the work during his visit. He replaced the damaged outlet, ran a dedicated circuit and made sure that all the other outlets were in good working order. Tim did an outstanding job explaining the work that was being done and what started the problem. He was very professional, cleaned up after he finished and gave me his business card as he thanked me for my business. I will certainly keep his business card and if I need future electrical service Belco will get my business. I will ask for Tim Chastain!!!!

They were wonderful! He had to come out four times as I had a lot of things going wrong that needed service. He did a lot of work. He was very knowledgable and explained everything in detail to me. He didn't try to upsale anything to me and thoroughly went through everything with my house and advised me what I may need in the future. I am very happy with his services.

I’ve worked with them for a number of years and they’ve done a lot of stuff for us. We’ve got one guy in particular, Tim, and he is really great to work with. You just call up and talk to him and he gets everything set up. He actually has the same electrician to come and do all of our work because we like him. He has already done several projects around the house and kind of keeps things consistent. He kind of knows what going on and it’s never a problem; we always just have him come over.
Description of Work: We use Belco Electric and the last time we used probably a month ago to fix some odds and ends before they got into the bigger project.

Normal 0 I had no problems at all. The work went off very well. They were nice and friendly. They were punctual and even called and came a little early. They performed the work, made some suggestions and I was completely satisfied.I would use them in the future. Update: The next day, after the electrician left, I noticed my oven was not working, I rarely use it but it does have a clock I took at now and then. I called them back to ask if the electrician could come back to make sure everything in the electrical panel had been put back as it was before their visit. She asked me to check to see if the circuit in the panel had been tripped, it hadn't. Then she told me they don't work on applicances and it would cost me another visit for the electrician to make sure he put the panel back as it was. I will not consider them for future work.

My experience with Belco was very positive. I called them the week after Christmas, and was amazed when they responded to my call. Most companies weren't even open the week after Christmas. They came out on short notice, and were very professional, efficient, and responsive. They have followed up with nice thank you notes. I would definitely use them again.

Jimmy was fast, professional, friendly - everything a landlord looks for - don't want to see him soon but if I have an electrical problem Belco is my first call.
Description of Work: Diagnostics - main breaker not staying in & no juice to dishwasher. Jimmy did great. He cross-referenced the bad, obsolete 100 amp breaker to a current model at Home Depot; promptly went and bought it; then installed it. He then found the nuetral lead to the dishwasher burned thru in the breaker box; trimmed it and reconnected it. Ready to go.

It went very well. Matt was very professional and knowledgeable. I felt like I was in very good hands. He did a great job explaining to me what I needed to do and why. He did not pressure me at all to do anything. He just explained what my situation was and what my options were. I will call them for all of my electrical needs.
Description of Work: Belco came to my house and installed GFCI receptacles in our kitchen and bathrooms. They also rerouted my circuit breaker so that I would no longer overload the breaker that my laundry machine was on. Also relocated the switch to turn my attic fan on and off so that it is more accessible. Also added an additional outlet to the outside (front) of my house so I no longer have a dangerous extension cord providing access to electricity for that area.

We were really pleased with this company. We had just had our house cleaned so we were worried there would be a mess if we had them put in ceiling fans and outlets but they cleaned up every little thing. There was no trash or mess after they were done. They were really responsible. They also charged us less money than they originally said they would because I don't think the work we had for them took as much time as they thought it would at first.
Description of Work: We had two outlets and two ceiling fans installed in our 1500 square foot home by this company. My husband paid the bill so I have no idea what it was but my husband said it was lower than what he thought it would be and even lower than the original estimate they gave us. So he was happy and so was I.

The work these men did was really good, but I was very surprised when I finally received the bill. I thought that the price was way over the amount it should have been and even though they were professional and very courteous, I do believe I will shop around before I use them again.
Description of Work: They installed a couple of outside lights for us around our home. This took them about 2 hours to complete in total from start to the final test.

We really appreciated how quickly they responded when we called as the sparking was rather scary. He was such a pleasant man, he even went out of his way to figure out why my polar bear Christmas decoration wasn't lighting correctly, just being a nice guy. I would recommend him highly.

Belco came out and gave me an estimate on replacing a fuse box with a circuit panel box. They wanted $1856. I ended up going with another company that charged me far less. Belco was prompt in returning my call and in arranging for the estimate. They arrived on time and were professional. One thing I didn't like was that they charged me $75 just to come out and give me an estimate. This isn't uncommon with electricians but it does suck. They didn't provide any work on my home so I can't comment on that, but I suspect they would do a fine job.

They charge $60 for an estimate. I had more than one project, and they would not give me an itemized estimate for each project, only one estimate for everything. When I asked to have the price for one of the projects separately, electrician said he would have to charge ANOTHER $60 for that.

Shane, the electrician, was on time, polite, and competent. He was there for about 4 hours. The work was done to my satisfaction but the price was about $200 more than I had estimated, and that stung! That is the only reason I would not use them again. Always better to over estimate the bill than to under estimate it!

Really nice electrician, Matt, was very pleasant. I had called Belco with a list of things I needed and was told that it was a days work. Unfortunately by days end, only half of the list was completed. So it was extremely expensive for what I had done and at the end of the day they continue to bill you $85/hour to write up the invoice!!! I still need my electrical to-do list completed but am not going to use Belco again as the pricing does not seem fair at all. Pity as the electrician was really nice.

My email communication with Mr. Jackson has been excellent. He was always very quick to respond and answer my questions in detail. On the day of service, the tech that came to the house called early and was very prompt in his arrival. He was very professional and very courteous. He performed the work and provided his analysis. In repairing the vent through the roof, he asked if we had any duct tape to seal it. We did not, but were disappointed that this was not an item that he would carry as part of his standard work materials. I will now need to obtain some duct tape on my own, go up in the attic and seal the vent hose to the roof myself. The good news is the fan still works, but is still extremely noisy. We probably will buy a replacement soon to be installed. The worst thing about the whole experience was the cost. The charge was $150.00 for 40 minutes of work! I felt this was hardly a fair price for the work performed. It should have been no more than half that price.
Description of Work: Removed, inspected and cleaned exhaust fan in upstairs bathroom. Re-attached vent connection to the roof.
