Tony showed up >30 minutes late for an appointment with no courtesy call to say he was running behind. While Tony responded immediately after I submitted a request for contractors, calling within a few minutes to arrange a 10AM Saturday appointment to scope the work. However, I had to call Tony at 10:10 to see if he was still showing up and he said he was “about to call me” and was running late. After waiting, I texted him at 10:36 to see if he was still coming, he called back a few minutes later to say he was there. I let him know I had already left to make another appointment, and when he offered to reschedule I told him I would find another electrician.

He came late, does not return calls. I had to call him 3 times for the price after he came out. I left him another 3 calls and he never called be back to do the job. I told me if he felt motivated he would get me the price with in a week. When he sent me the price he sent it with no information as to the location or my name and hand wrote it. Just wow.

Tony gave me a great price, showed up as scheduled and did a great job upgrading the outlets in my older house and garage to GFI outlets so I could get the house ready for inspection and ready to sell. I've also used Tony in the past to put in a dedicated circuit for my flood control system and he did a great job on that also. He's my go to guy for any electrical work that needs to be done.

First class, Tony came out in our first snow storm of the year, crawled under the dishwasher and into and out of the basement to restore power to our dishwasher and garbage disposal. It turned out to be a simple problem, he charged a reasonable amount and was quick and professional. Will use him again next time electrical problems arise.
Description of Work: Diagnosed two outlet problems, rerouted wiring away from a GFI circuit.

Description of Work: I purchased the "great deal" but they never got back to me and I finally got a refund from Angie's List. I did get fantastic service from the AL representative who tried to get the business to respond but they didn't seem to want to do the business. Needless to say, I won't be trying to use them again. Of course, the grade of F for overall and quality is given on their attitude of non service (since they did not perform any service).

All I wanted is 2 bathroom fans installed in my bathrooms. I saw a good looking offer on Angie's List Big Deal page for 2 installed bathroom fans and I purchased them. Tony came by after I called him and told me that it was going to cost more than what I had paid for in the Big Deal. I said that would be ok, but I wanted a breakdown of labor and materials over and above what I had already pre-paid. That seemed to scare him off some. After his walkthrough, I have not heard from him since. He has taken my money and ran. I have no bathroom fans and I am out the money I have paid through Angie's List Big Deal. This is the 2nd Big Deal I have purchased and both of them have been a disaster. I am very hesitant to use Angie's List since I have had only horrid experiences with their Big Deal purchases. I guess you truly to get what you pay for; a good price through Angie's List Big Deals are a loss of time and money for me as a consumer. I lose my money paid to the so-called "professional" and I have to spend more money to get the work done by someone else. I don't know how this guy has such a good rating. He is totally unprofessional and I feel like he has stolen my money. I now truly understand by most contractors have bad reputations. They are true masters of over-promising and under-delivering.
Description of Work: This provider took my Big Deal purchase money and ran. He showed up for a "walkthrough" and ended up telling me immediately that what I purchased would actually cost more than what I had pre-paid through the Angie's List Big Deal. I told him that would be OK, but I wanted a breakdown of the extra costs in writing. He said he would and never followed through. I have had no contact from him since his on site visit. He has not returned a phone call, email or message through Angie's List since he took my money and ran.

Getting Tony to show up or return calls was a nightmare. When he finally showed up to finish the job that he started, it was all done well so far as I can tell - from a technical perspective at least - but he left debris from the job and footprints all over the place. Interestingly though, the young guy who installed the new power drop for our upstairs cupboard was courteous, cleaned up after himself and left an immaculate installation - perhaps all the positive reviews on here are actually because of him!
Description of Work: We had Tony replace an extractor fan in our basement and run a new electrical connection into an upstairs cupboard for an alarm control unit.

Tony and his team took down my old solar powered light fixture and installed the new electrical one. They dropped the electrical line into the house and added the switch to a current light switch for an additional $50 charge which they previously quoted. The light is brighter and adjustable. Very satisfied with the courteous, professional service.
Description of Work: I purchased the motion sensitive light including installation on the Daily Deal.

Did a good job in installing a bath ceiling fan. There was drywall touchup work that i needed to perform after his job was complete that I didn't expect.
Description of Work: Installed ceiling bath fan in our master. Removed old one and installed new one. My house vents didn't match (3" vs 4") for the new fan so Tony made some changes to make it work.

I called Tony after buying an Angie's List deal of the day for a new motion sensor light. The cost included the light itself and was a good deal. Tony was very professional and worked with me to install the light, even though I did not have a preexisting motion light. He worked quickly and efficiently and showed me how to configure the light to my preferences when he finished. Would definitely recommend.
Description of Work: I had one motion sensor light installed on the side of my garage where electrical existed already.

There was no work done. I could not contact anyone at the business.
Description of Work: I bought an Angie's Big Deal for the installation of an Ultra Quiet High Performance bathroom fan. The Deal was offered by Tony Petrauskas, I tried contacting Mr. Petrauskas by phone, on June 21 or 22, and got a message that said he was out of town and would be returning on June 26. I called again on June 28, and got the same message. According to the calendar, he should have been back by then. On the same day (June 26) I sent him and email message explaining why I was contacting him, and asked him to get in touch with me by the following Monday. I did not hear from by phone or by email. Today, July 3, I thought I would call again, just to see if he was back. I got the same message on his phone, saying that he would be back on June 26. I called the number he left, to call in case the job required urgent attention. That number was answered by an intelligible name and no further information was given. I do not know if that was a business number or a private party.

It was okay. It wasn't $99; it was more than that. In the small print it says if you have to go more than 15' it would cost more. It cost me around $150. I called them and I asked if it included the light in the $99 and he said the light was included but it wasn't $99. I looked at the small print and it wasn't $99. He did the job and he did it well. It was worth it. It was just a little thing that entraps people. I was happy with the work but I wasn't happy with the initial price. The final price was fine but I didn't like how we got there.

I phoned Tony and told him a project we needing a bid on and wanted to see if he would come to Chicago as my current commercial electrician was not showing up and over priced. Tony said yes and I was thrilled as I already had used him multiple times in my home in the suburbs. We set a date and time, he came for the estimate, told me when he could come and do the job, it was done no problem. The price was very reasonable and we have done 2 projects at my shop and I just booked another one today.
Description of Work: Tony is a real pleasure to work with on projects. He is reliable, well priced and his work is very good. He is also one of the most honest contractors I have met with estimates and timelines which is a pleasant surprise. He has done work for me at both my home and small business and I have never had any concerns. I think combined we have done over 8 projects with him, 3 in the last 2 months, very pleased.

During a terrible thunderstorm, a tree branch knocked into our outside electrical box and it needed to be remounted to the wall and the pipes that contain the electrical wires needed to be replaced. Tony came out the same day and fixed everything right away. He did good work and the price was fair. He also gave us quotes for other work that are reasonable. We highly recommend him and will be using him again in the future.

Tony arrived at the designated time, went right to work installing the conduit and put the new outlet right where it needed to be to pass inspection. Overall A+.
Description of Work: Tony added a line from my existing electrical service to my flood control system location. He was very professional, prompt and pleasant. He charged a very reasonable price for the work and really got me out of a jam. After looking for a month for someone to finally do my electrical work so I could get my flood control system installed, Tony really came through for me.
