He did a great job - was very meticulous, safety conscious and thorough. Made sure to communicate what he was doing every step. Also appreciate that he carefully labeled all the wiring for future consideration. That is very helpful! The day he was here happened to be the great storm of 2015 - and our basement was flooding. He went above & beyond the call of duty to help us in a crisis and make we sure did not electrocute ourselves trying to get supplemental sump pumps going. It's a day I don't think any of us will forget!! Chris cares about doing the job to the highest standard and likes to mentor young apprentices. Good guy with great energy! Thanks!
Description of Work: Chris re-wired outdated outlets on most of our main level. (and a whole lot more technical stuff I don't know how to articulate!)

After spending 4+ hours they could not complete the job they were hired to do because we found out the wire supplies electricity to the fan/chandler is always hot which I wasn't aware of before. They didn't have the time to go up the attic to check if the wire can be reconnected to a switch on the kitchen wall, when I asked they told me that they may have to cut open the drywall to install the wire and recommended me to purchase a remote control switch for the chandler. Next day I called a "real" electrician who did the wiring for me without opening any drywalls and was able to connect the wire to 3-way switches on the kitchen/family room/hallway walls and he did all this under 2 hours.
Description of Work: Came to replace a high ceiling fan with a chandler.

Response from Quality Residential Electric Inc
First, it was not 4 hours – it was 2. Second, it required several levels of scaffold to reach the existing fan to be swopped for the new chandelier – which we waived the 99.00 up charge, You neglected to tell us that said fan was on a remote – even when I asked at time of scheduling, that would indicate an electrical situation that may require more then a simple swop. It may have taken us just an additional 2 hours just to run the wire too, but we had a very tight schedule that day, and that it why you chose to write such a negative review as you threatened to. We never said we could not – or would not remedy the problem, you asked for a worst-case scenario. Further, we went through a few options for our next visit, as we could not risk destroying our next 2-scheduled arrival times. A real electrician cannot do what had to be done to run a wire up the 30 some feet to facilitate a switch, and install a chandelier – SAFELY and while meeting your local code. I do not know everything, but I did pass a several hour License test, Additionally, I take pride in what I do, and I worry about consequences of haste actions, most homeowners appreciate, and, in fact, expect that of a real electrician. I hope he was at least insured, or, that you are.

The cost was more than I expected. Using my Angies list voucher, the cost was 284.00 above that proce. I probably in reality paid full price for the service.

Actually, we looked up your work sheet, and it clearly stated that you requested a dimmer. Moreover, there was a second dimmer installed elsewhere in you residence. These Items cost us money to stock in our 40,000 dollar - on board inventory. This saves trips to local big box stores, that some electricians have to run to - on your clock. In addition, it does take a little extra time to install, still, sorry we missed the perfect A mark.

Thank you for the perfect A - thats what we strive for. We will see you later this month for the old basement T-12 fluorescent bulb retro fits. I guarantee you will like the quality in lighting the LED tubes offer. Plus, you will never have to change another bulb or ballast again, while still utilizing the old fixture.

Contractor arrived on time with all the material to do the job. I explained what I needed generally and he proposed several ways to complete the work. He took the time to look at the Home Inspection Report to make sure everything electrical was addressed and recommended the most cost effective means to do it. He left me his contact information in the event the inspector had any questions and he was very familiar with the applicable code requirements. Overall very, very satisfied. I plan to use him again at our new home when we build out the basement.

We Never charge extra for apprentices time. They are on my clock, they always reduce yours. Any of the hundreds on Angies List that have used our services know this for a fact, the extra money was used for us to scoot around on our knees in your attic to install the new box and new wires that supply your new device. It was a reasonable cost - as we are electricians - not magicians. It takes time to make something appear that was not there when we arrived. We did the very best we could to get off your clock, while performing work that was safe, and per your local code.

there was a coordination problem initially but it was just a plain misunderstanding and was resolved right away.. Chris did an excellent job, the job was on Angie's list deal $79.00 for 2 hours of electrical labor but he stayed and did the job for almost 3 hours and he did not charge me extra. We paid additional $10.00 just for the materials. Also I must add that he was very professional. He is the best!
