I had a problem because I was losing power in my garage and other portions of my house. My security system was not working. They came out and I talked about getting some upgrades. I wanted to know what was causing problems and they did not get back to me for about a week. They said they would send an electrician out but nobody has come out yet.

I could not be more pleased with the service I received from Alexander Electric Co. I called for an appointment on Monday and I was scheduled for the next day. The service technicians arrived ahead of time, which was a surprise - albeit a good surprise and the work was completed within a few minutes. I feel their charges are comparable to other companies. I also feel this is a company that knows how to treat a customer, I didn't have the feeling that I was inconveniencing them. This is rare now days that a company cares about the customer. I will definitely call them again if and when I need any further electrical work done and I recommend Alexander Electric Co. to everyone needing electrical work done.

They came out exactly when they were scheduled to do the work. All work was completed timely. Chris Ochs and the two workers, Kevin and David were very professional and all work was completed efficiently. They took the time to answer any questions I had and explained everything that they were doing. I have to say that they could not have treated me any nicer than they did. It was an overall good experience. I would highly recommend to anyone needing electrical work and would gladly use their services again. In fact, I called back and spoke to Ty Rutland to schedule other electrical work but no one ever came out or contacted me about it. I assumed they were too busy or forgot about it.

All of the electricians I've met with this company have been professional, friendly, and honest. They didn't charge us to have wiring inspected for safety, or to have some wiring tightened, they just asked that we call them for any other jobs we needed done.
Description of Work: This company has inspected potential problems in my home twice, have tightened wiring and labeled our breaker box all free of charge. When it was determined that an issue we were having was the responsibility of the power company, the electrician called the power company to inform them of the problem before he left our house.

No estimate provided before service. I was not told I was being charged. Bill comes later as a surprise.
Description of Work: I called this business to give me an estimate on a generator that was not switching on. A very polite service tech came by, saw that the gas was not flowing to the generator. He tried to find the gas switch and sprayed the generator for bugs and left after advising me to call a plumber. One week later came the surprise. A $170 BILL FOR 2 HOURS OF LABOR. I paid it because I do not want to be "that guy" but WOW.

My Mom, Sister, and I are fixing up an older home for my Sister and her kids. We wanted a total evaluation of the electrical system,removal of a floor outlet, and addition of a 3-way light switch in the kitchen. Several electricians showed up at the house, on time, and ready to work! They were all over the place! They checked every room, all across the attic, down in the crawl space, and the fuse box. They did a fantastic job, really impressive!!! They removed the old floor outlet (there were outlets in the walls, not sure why this was there) and made it safe, and added wonderful 3-way light switches in the kitchen. We felt very confident in their work AND they had great customer service. Thank You, Alexander Electric and Company!!!

There were problems, but the issue was resolved. Anyone considering using this company, should not let my experience stop them from doing so, clearly the company will stand by their work and cares about their reputation.
Description of Work: There were problems with the service, but the company rectified the problem without my involvement. In fact, they were more than fair. This is an example of a very responsible and ethical way to do business. I have to admit, I am surprised and impressed. Perhaps this was bad day for everyone..

The technician was very easy to work with and resolved all issues very quickly. It has been awhile since his visit, and everything he fixed still works great! I am very pleased with Alexander Electric and will definitely use them again!
Description of Work: One entire wall of my Great Room lost power unexpectedly. After checking the fuse box, I knew I had a problem and called in Alexander Electric (after reading reviews on Angie's List). The service technician was very helpful and discovered I had some poorly wired outlets causing disruption in electric flow. He replaced the outlets and the issue was resolved. While he was here, he also helped me with a few other things that have been on my list for awhile. He replaced my doorbell, and put in a can light over the master shower.

Kevin showed up right on time on the day and time the company told me he would be there and they even changed the time to better suit me and called me to confirm it the day prior so the "front office" was very well run. I showed him the 3 issues and he immediately went to work and got it done. Kevin was very knowledgeable and very professional. Just the small things matter like taking off his boots after being outside on the rainy day showing consideration for his customer- rare these days! I'm picky when it comes to contractors. I look for value- which to me is price, quality, service and overall experience and Alexander Electric hit the mark. I thought the rate was $50/hour, he was here only 1 1/2 hours and the bill was just over $108 (including the one breaker) so I thought the total cost was going to be a little lower. The receipt/invoice did not have a breakdown of charges (labor and parts) which it should. A clear description of the cost beforehand and on the invoice would make them even better.
Description of Work: Moved into this 20+ year old house about 18 months ago and noticed several cases of poor "DIY" wiring & electrical work. Most of it was easy enough for me to correct except for a really strange 2 switch, 2 light 3 way wiring arrangement which the technician quickly corrected. Secondly, I had an extension breaker box outside for the pool pump that looked unsafe which he inspected it (all was OK) and lastly had 2 breakers that were somehow connected (both couldn't be "hot" at the same time". He fixed that with a dual single slot breaker. In and out in 90 minutes

It went well. I was satisfied. They were very professional and trustworthy. You didn't have to watch them. They took almost 2 days to finish in that they were thorough and wouldn't leave until eveything was working properly. Oh! They gave a free estimate which I benefited from immediately because the gentleman would not walk away from anything unsafe that he saw. How decent is that?!!! But, because he was going to have to send a couple guys to crawl through my attic and underneath the house to evaluate all the work that I wanted done, I was charged a $100.00 for a second estimate. That was probably very fair considering how much I wanted him to address but it was the first time I ever experienced that practice. Nevertheless, when I realized too late that I had asked him to put in a receptacle for the dryer but hadn't noticed it wasn't on the estimate, they didn't nickle and dime me. They just did it and stuck with the same $1400 charge. I supposed it was because he was honest and fair. I was glad I hadn't nickled and dimed him about the estimate that cost $100.
Description of Work: They replaced the electrical mast on my house which took coordination with the Power company. They replaced my two (2) out-dated electrical panels with one (1) and they had the proper code people there to inspect their work. They coordinated the chaotic wiring situation in my attic and made it safe. Inside the house, they replaced my major appliance receptables and added wall receptables for the kitchen. And, they made my security lights work. Wherever I had a few loose wall switches, etc., they replaced them.

A light fixture in a bedroom needed to be replaced, as the wiring had gone bad and ruined the fixture. The guys came over to take a look at the situation. They advised me that they could rewire and fix my antique fixture, but that it was going to take time to find the parts and they would be more costly than a new fixture. I had been considering replacement of the fixture anyway, as it wasn't very attractive and I wanted a fan fixture in that bedroom, so I decided to replace. The guys offered to go pick one up for me, but I wold rather pick one out myself. So, they left and said they would be back in 2 hours. I went to Lowe's, got a nice fixture, and met the guys back at my house. They look the fixture out of the box, assembled, and affixed to the wall. They fixed my wiring and checked some other wiring in the house. I was really please with my experience, however I thought they were a bit pricey. I would still consider using them again in the fuure, as they seemed knowledgeable. Also, as the guys were working i the room, the company's owner stopped by the house just to see how things were going.
