I needed to change the breaker box that was completely rusted. Jeremy did an excellent job to change those boxes, all the fuses and even add some plugs for future use He did label all the circuit for easy maintenance and diagnostic for future.. He also did fix some three way switches that wired improperly I'll recommend them to anyone with any job size.

Jason gave us estimates to either correct problems in our electrical panel or replace it. We ended up deciding to correct the problem by fixing some grounds and replacing an improper amp circuit breaker. Jason was kind enough to come out on a Saturday to do the work so we could use our heat pump again. We were very pleased with his service and will be using him again soon for another project.

Two men were on-sight for 6-7 hours and completed all the updates/fixes that I wanted to have done at this time. They were busy the entire time they were on site and they clearly communicated what needed to be done and offered alternative solutions to problems to be fixed and clearly described what they thought was the best way to address issues. I will definitely use Rickel Electic again.
Description of Work: I wanted to fix several electrical issues that were identified during a home inspection. In addition, I was looking to update several ungrounded electrial outlets, add a few new outlets, convert all outlets near sinks in two bathrooms and the kitchen with GFCI outlets and install "in-use" electrical covers on all exterior outlets. They also re-did shoddy electrical work done by a septic pump vendor

He contacted me within 24 hours of the quote request & provided an estimate for both jobs. We scheduled the first job & it was completed on time & the guys cleaned up after themselves. They also looked at some other electrical projects, and provided an estimate for that work as well. He also made some suggestions on where to buy the exterior light fixtures, and the type of lights to purchase. We scheduled the exterior work a few weeks later. Once again, he showed up on time & completed the job to our satisfaction. Would definitely call them again for future jobs.
Description of Work: Wired, added ceiling fan boxes, and installed fans in 2 upstairs rooms. Also came back for a second job to wire and install 2 exterior carriage lights on the sides of our garage door.

Jason stopped by, disagreed with the assessment and advised me of a couple things including a possible code violation for how much clearance existed for the panel. Jason was down to earth and helpful - he'll be the first who gets my business next time I have an electrical maintenance issue. Thanks Jason!
Description of Work: Jason came out to give a second opinion on whether a switch panel required replacement. Another service provider had stated there was rust on one side of the panel and should be replaced.

I purchased a big deal for $99 for the installation of a recessed light with dimmer switch. They contacted me promptly to schedule the appointment and were on time. I requested just the wiring to be done, as I had my own light fixture I wanted to install instead of the recessed lighting. They installed in my specified location, which was nice because I certainly could not have installed in that location myself. They did a quick review of my electric panel, but I did not receive any sort of report on it. I would hire them again.
Description of Work: I hired them to install a new light fixture with dimmer switch in a downstairs room that did not have overhead lighting.

I was lucky enough to get the owner, Jason Rickel. He's an outstanding workman. He's very attentive to quality, very meticulous, & just very friendly. I'm very happy with the work. I've lived in this house for 20 years & I've always needed another outlet in the bathroom and it fabulous to have it finally.
Description of Work: He installed two electrical outlets, two dimmer switches, two ceiling fixtures, & a timer for the fan in the bathroom. He charges time & materials & I supplied most of the materials. He was here about 3 hours.

Technician arrived at scheduled time to address several outlets that had lost power along with a couple of light fixtures. After a brief discussion, he identified an outlet that had a loose wire and this addressed one of the issues. Further checkout determined some outlets still did not work so the technician kept searching and found one of the GFI outlets was intermittently causing issues. After replacing that, everything worked perfectly. I would recommend and use this company for work in the future!

There was no power to half my condo, including the furnace. Condo maintenance folks found no issues within the walls of the unit, then a friend came over, started turning on random things, and got power to come on dimly to the non-functioning areas. I called Rickel, then discovered the key to getting all the power on was to turn on the stove. Rickel's staff used that information to (a) find the source of the problem and (b) answer all my questions about how electricity can flow back from the functioning line through the dead one via the oven. Sadly, we had to rely on the power company to actually fix the problem.
Description of Work: Rickel had someone out within the hour to check on an electrical malfunction that affected half my condo. They found a problem the condo handyman overlooked, which was the power company's responsibility. The power was out to one line of the unit, and the outage began somewhere outside the walls of the building. Rickel's staff identified that there was no power to the meter from that line, so the problem wasn't something they could handle. 4 days later, IPL is still digging to find the trouble spot.

I called for a quote that was very reasonable. I accepted the quote by email and scheduled them to come in a week. The day of they did not arrive as expected. When I called to see if there was a problem they said I had not been added to the calendar. They offered to come later in the day. They did a good job and it was done as requested. They apologized for coming late.

I had a bathroom light that wasn't working. Jason called to let me know he was running a bit late, checking to see if that was a problem. It wasn't. Once he arrived, he quickly determined the problem as a light switch that needed to be replaced. That was accomplished quickly.

He was very professional, on time and courteous. We decided on a date to install the light and he along with his crew were there on time. Our home is about 30 yrs old so there were a few unexpected hiccoughs and technical problems during the installation process. Jasen and his crew did a respectable job of keeping the house clean. We had expected the job to be done in 3 hrs but due to these unexpected problems, it lasted almost an entire day (about 6-7 hrs). He did not overcharge for anything. At the last minute, we decided to go for LED instead of CFL recessed lights. Jasen was OK with such a last minute change and ran up to Menards to get the new bulbs. We ended up paying more for the bulbs (but that was our decision and not a problem with his estimate). He even fixed a faulty light dimmer switch (for an extra fee) on the same day even though it was not part of his scheduled work. Here is where my problem comes in though. The service was great but the LED dimmer switch (luteron) he installed does not seem to do the trick. If I had only one LED bulb (it would dimm all the way through) but with 6 LED bulbs (they dim maybe by 15% tops). If I bring my dimmer down any further, the lights started flickering. I'm thinking this is a problem with the power rating of the switch or something. A month later, all the lights would start flickering ramdomly (even on full power) and it would feel like there is a ghost in the house. It gets distracting (esp since it happens daily). I've made 2 calls to his office and his receptionist/secretary said Jasen would call me back. It's been 2 months now and no one has called me back. Horrible customer service after the installation is complete. I decided not to use his services for the other projects in my house and found another very reliable local electrical service on angieslist. I'm still waiting to hear back from Jasen about resolution of this issue. I need that flickering light issue to be resolved.
Description of Work: We needed recessed lights installed in your family room and Jasen from Rickel electric came on time to provide a free estimate. He looked around the house and gave his suggestions about how to install lights, location, etc. We also had a few other projects lined up and he was kind enough to give a free estimate on these as well. We decided to go for 6 recessed lights to begin with.
