Joe did an excellent job of assisting me in tracing the conglomeration of wires and understanding just what a previous owner had attempted to do. Unfortunately whomever tried to fix the situation made it much worse. As we were about an hour into the diagnostics, Joe did ask me if I was sure I wanted to continue trying to trace the wires out as he knew it was costing me $75 per hour. I indicated that I really wanted to know where all of these wires went so we can get the situation corrected. Another hour passed and more issues were discovered and again Joe asked me and basically recommended that I cut my losses here and run two new lines to my gates as it was now apparent that the problem was in the ground between the house and the gates. I agreed and have plans to engage JE Shekell to assist when the time comes. Also, in the course of our investigations, Joe also pointed out a couple of unrelated safety items I needed to take care of. I never felt he was trying to drum up more business but instead could tell his commentary was out of concern for the safety of my family and home.
Description of Work: Perform electrical diagnosis for a ground fault I received on the receptacles at my front gates. Included tracing the wires from the house to the gates and lights and properly testing all wire runs.

The service technicians are always prompt and even call ahead of time to confirm when they are on the way from a previous appointment.
Description of Work: I have the service contract for Spring and Fall servicing with J.E. Shekell, which runs about $225/yr. Additionally, I buy 3 filters a year for my Spring Aire whole house filtration system, which are not included in the service contract. They are very good at calling to set up an appointment for your contract services and I have even been put at the top of the list a couple of times when my A/C went out due to having COPD. Their service technicians are very professional and courteous. I couldn't ask for better service.

I chose them through their advertising. They are very professional and very knowledgeable. They are not the cheapest in my area but are the best. I have problems getting a call back from them at times.
Description of Work: I use JE Shekell Inc for heating and air conditioning work. They come out every spring and fall to check my furnace and air conditioner. I last used them for an estimate on installing a new air conditioner. I have been using them for many years.

I had a very puzzling electrical problem in my Bonus Room. The electrician made 3 trips investigating, replacing circuit breakers, etc. and discovered the treadmill was the problem. We did find that this was not an uncommon problem. Together we lubricated the treadmill and it is performing well. However, we both agreed it was time for a new treadmill.
Description of Work: Testing a replacing circuit breakers.

Two things happened. I had an issue with a sump pump in a crawl space under the house. They sent somebody out and he went under the house and changed the pump. He presented me with a bill and all it had was the cost of the visit. I asked him to itemize the bill because it was blank and had what ever he was charging me for it. I think he might have got offended because maybe he thought I didn't believe him. I thought that it was a little odd that he would act clearly offended. This was just a technician not someone in the office. He said he would have to call the office to get an itemized list. I told him to go ahead and that I have nothing but time. I feel like as a consumer you want to know what you are paying for. You can't just hand somebody a blank bill with $300 dollars on the bottom of it and it be ok. There was a miscommunication in the office as to what I was going to be charged but it was ok. The noise with the pump was still going on so I had to call the guy back. I called and asked them to send somebody else out. I ended up speaking with a Sheckle this time. He sent a different guy out. He fixed it. He was very thorough. I think after the initial hick-up with the first guy it all worked itself out. The price wasn't exorbitant.

They are a big company here in town and have got a zillion trucks. They will come out almost always the same day when I call them, if not right away. They even do weekends but we get charged extra for the weekend, but they can do emergency work on weekends. They just do everything. They are expensive, but we know they are going to be expensive since it is a well-known fact. I have never had a problem with their quality. I need to call them to put some light fixtures in the upstairs rooms for me.
Description of Work: JE Shekell came out and fixed a circuit breaker in our garage that had blown. They fixed an attic fan that wasn’t working. They do everything, including electrical and plumbing. They do pretty much anything I need them to do.

I live in Henderson and I mostly use Henderson services. I don't use a lot of Evansville services. JE Shekell is in Evansville. They are 15 miles from me. They do heating and air, refrigeration, electrical, plumbing and sheet metal. They also do drain stuff and I didn't know until I had a problem. I've used them for quite a while and they are excellent.

Technician arrived and spent an excessive amount of time trying to identify the problem that was causing the zone baffle system to malfunction. After he finally isolated the problem he gave me an estimate to repair which was excessive. I later had the problem corrected for approximately one half the price by another contractor.
Description of Work: I was charged an excessive amount to investigate a problem with the "ZONE CONTROLS" for my heating-A/C system with no actual repair work performed. The estimate to repair was also excessive so I did not have them do the work. I was charged a "repair labor rate" instead of the lower rate to isolate the problem. I requested a price adjustment and they just ignored me.
