Our condo association needed to replace lampposts and sconces in our courtyard, so we asked for estimates from several companies. R & L Maintenance got the contract because they had the best proposal and they had performed well for us a few years ago on a good-sized job. Their quote was very competitive and when additional work was required after the contract was signed, the additional cost was reasonable. Conduit and wiring for lampposts had to be installed before concrete could be poured. Ron did an excellent job coordinating with the concrete contractor and the job was completed about as fast as could be inspected. R & L Maintenance did quality work, right down to the last detail. They passed their inspections without any problem and the final product has impressed many residents in our building. We would recommend R & L Maintenance to anyone looking for quality electrical work at a reasonable price.
Description of Work: Needed to replace lampposts and sconces in our courtyard.

Guy showed up, said he didn't have the right tools for the installation, left to get some. Worked for THREE HOURS on a dead-simple install of a fixture from Home Depot. Investigated other fixture for ONE HOUR before telling me that he couldn't fix it. Essentially, this guy had no experience and should not have been sent. But worse, they charged me FOUR HOURS labor, which I plan to fight.
Description of Work: Called for installation of lighting fixture and repair of an existing one.

Response from R & L MAINTENANCE INC
NOT ALL INSTALLATIONS ARE AS "DEAD-SIMPLE" AS A CUSTOMER MAY THINK, THAT'S WHY THEY HIRE A PROFESSIONAL TO DO THE WORK IN THE FIRST PLACE. THIS FIXTURE HAD TO BE INSTALLED ON A VERY HARD MASONRY SURFACE THAT WE HAD TO DRILL THROUGH TO INSTALL THE FEED. MY ELECTRICIAN DID HAVE TO LEAVE TO GET THE PROPER DRILL AND RETURNED PROMPTLY, THIS IS A PART OF THE JOB, AS HARD AS WE TRY WE CANNOT CARRY EVERY SINGLE TOOL AND PART ON OUR TRUCKS. THE FIXTURE THAT NEEDED REPAIR HAD BEEN DISCONNECTED, YET THE CUSTOMER SAID NO ONE ELSE WORKED ON IT, CUSTOMER DID NOT WANT TO PROCEED WITH THAT REPAIR. ALSO AS YOU SEE IN HER REVIEW SHE USED US BEFORE, IF WE WERE SO BAD WHY HIRE US BACK? I HAVE BEEN IN BUSINESS IN THIS AREA FOR 28 YEARS AND HAVE A VERY LOYAL CLIENT BASE AND HAVE RECEIVED MANY COMPLIMENTS FROM CUSTOMERS REGARDING MY EMPLOYEES AND MANY REFERRALS, I SURE DO NOT APPRECIATE THIS NEGATIVE FEED-BACK. I BELIEVE THIS CUSTOMER WAS JUST LOOKING FOR SOMETHING FOR NOTHING. PLEASE READ THE REST OF MY REPORTS AND THEN YOU DECIDE.

R & L Maintenance did a great job. I was completely pleased with them. They were professional and friendly and the guys were very easy going and helpful. They aimed to please and I loved them!
Description of Work: R & L Maintenance painted my new kitchen and installed the electrical fixtures. They also did the plumbing work for the sink and added a light fixture and laid laminate flooring for my 1800 square foot home.

R&L is a pleasure to work with - they went the extra mile to do the job right, and even added some things at no additional charge. R&L is friendly, honest and accurate. It is rare to find such a terrific combination of price, quality, and customer service.
Description of Work: Installed upgraded electrical service, new circuit breaker panel, and new ground to code. Added new circuits and reworked the feed to central air conditioning with new disconnect.

Ron La Rose did the walk through for the proposal. He was professional and easy to work with. He noticed that the attic fan had never been connected (roofers had installed the fan but discarded some components), and suggested completing the installation with a new thermostat. The proposal was a clear bullet list and promptly sent. The work was then scheduled about 1.5 weeks after I mailed back the proposal and deposit. The project took 3 days. George and Jesse arrived each day as scheduled, 7-7:30 am. They were both friendly & professional. In several cases, they offered alternative installation options for switches & outlets, & always clarified what I expected. George even cheerfully replaced a timer I had requested (after he had clarified that I DID want a timer in that room) with a dimmer switch, when I changed my mind at the last minute. Their work was neat, including some new conduit and BX cable. They did their best to minimize damage to the plaster and lathe.
Description of Work: Replaced 20 position electrical panel with a 30 position electrical panel, replaced 3 ceiling fixtures including dimmers for two (due to age of home, they had to replace the ceiling boxes for a couple of them), installed a new ceiling fixture on the front porch and an interior switch (timer), replaced bathroom outlet with GFI, installed 3 new standard outlets and converted a split standard and 240 outlet to a standard outlet and installed a surface-mount 120/240 feed in the kitchen, installed an exterior outlet receptacle in front of house, replaced 2 ceiling fixtures in the basement and connected them to a switch, installed an additional outlet in the basement, rewired front and back doorbells with new chime and transformer, installed a thermostat on attic fan and wired/connected the fan.

I WAS DISAPPOINTED THAT THEY GAVE ME VERY SHORT NOTICE THAT THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO COME AND GIVE ME AN ESTIMATE. WHEN A COMPANY CANCELS AT THE LAST MINUTE AND THEN SAYS THEY CAN'T SERVICE YOU FOR 3 MONTHS YOU WONDER IF THEY JUST DON'T FEEL LIKE TAKING YOUR JOB.
Description of Work: I HAD SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT WITH THEM FOR TUESDAY 6/8. AT THE TIME THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO SHOW UP THEY CALLED AND SAID AN EMERGENCY CAME UP AND THEY WERE BOOKED SOLID UNTIL SEPTEMBER. THEY SUGGESTED I GET SOMEONE ELSE.

EXCELLENT WORK. NO PROBLEMS AT ALL. EVERYTHING WAS EXPLAINED TO ME PRIOR TO WORK BEING DONE. I WAS PROVIDED WITH AN ESTIMATE, WHICH WAS VERY THOROUGH IN DETAIL. I PROVIDED ALL THE FIXTURES, EXCEPT THE UNDER THE COUNTER, WHICH THEY LOCATED AND INSTALLED. SINCE I WAS GOING TO NEED NEW DRYWALL AND PAINT WORK ALONG TO COMPLETE THE PROJECT, THAT WAS EXPLAINED AS WELL AND HE PROVIDED A REFERENCE FOR THAT WORK AS WELL. THE WORKMEN WERE PROMPT, PROFESSIONAL AND I FELT TOTALLY AT EASE LEAVING THEM IN MY HOME ALONE. THEY WERE VERY CLEAN AND CONSIDERATE. I WOULD RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE AND DEFINITE USE THEM AGAIN.
Description of Work: HAD EXTENSIVE LIGHTING INSTALLED IN MY KITCHEN AND BATHROOMS INCLUDING INSET CANISTERS, UNDER THE COUNTER LIGHTS, AND TWO FIXTURES.

I GOT THREE ESTIMATES FROM OTHER ELECTRICAL COMPANIES IN ANGIE''S LIST. R & L MAINTENANCE WAS NEITHER THE MOST EXPENSIVE NOR THE CHEAPEST BUT THE FIRM OFFERED SERVICE PERSONALIZED TO MY NEEDS THAT THE OTHERS DID NOT. AS I HAD NO IDEA HOW I WANTED TO ARRANGE THE CANISTERS IN THE CEILING, GEORGE AND JOSE WERE PATIENT AND HELPFUL. THEY MADE SURE I WAS HAPPY WITH THE ARRANGEMENT BEFORE THEY STARTED INSTALLING THE LIGHTS. THEY EVEN FIXED MY FRONT DOOR BELL. I HAD TO LEAVE THE HOUSE AND WAS VERY COMFORTABLE LEAVING THEM TO COMPLETE THEIR JOB AND LOCK UP BEHIND THEM. I WOULD HIRE R&L MAINTENANCE AGAIN AND FEEL CONFIDENT IN SUGGESTING THEIR SERVICE TO OTHERS.
Description of Work: I HAD 6 6-INCH RECESSED LIGHTING CANISTERS PUT INTO MY FAMILY ROOM. THIS ROOM WAS ON THE FIRST FLOOR AND HAD A ROOM ABOVE IT SO IT WAS A DIFFICULT TASK TO COMPLETE.
