I think the price was outrageous. They were here for 15 minutes. The original price was $118.00 before I sent in a coupon from Angie's List and they took $20.00 off. They were on time and polite but I don't think I will use them again.
Description of Work: They replaced dimmer switch with standard toggle switch.

Response from Ellison Electric Inc
We had scheduled this work with this customer 1 month in advance. We have happily served this customer in the past and she knew our rates. The job turned out to be nothing major and customer was aware of the minimum charges. Not only did we respond very quickly, we replaced an improper switch with the correct switch. We should not be judged as "outrageous" because we can troubleshoot problems very quickly where other companies would take 1 hour to repair. We have always worked very hard to please our customers as you can see from our previous reports.

We suffered a power outage and several blown fuses while changing a light fixture and could not determine the cause. We called Ellison's and left a message regarding our incident. Bill Ellison called us back immediately and advised us how to correct the problem over the phone and at no cost. He also called us back a couple of hours later to make sure the problem was resolved, which it was. We are grateful for his prompt response and follow up call since we had a freezer full of food that would have been lost without his efforts. Ellison's has done electrical work for us on a previous occasion and we would highly recommend him to anyone.
Description of Work: Mr. Ellison was able to resolve our problem without a service call to our home and at no charge.

I called the first of the week and work was completed on Friday. The electrician was on time and very professional. He installed the dimmer switches and did some trouble shooting on my utility light fixture. He determined I needed to replace the ballasts. He recommended an updated ballast instead of using the same kind that needed to be replaced. They were the same price, but the updated ballast would be more energy efficient, would use different tube light bulbs than what I had, but would provide much brighter lighting in the laundry room. It is amazing what a difference they make and I appreciated his recommendation to upgrade.
Description of Work: Installation of 2 dimmer switches and replaced the ballast and installed appropriate light bulbs for a utility light in our laundry room.

He called me back that day and tried to troubleshoot the issue over the phone also recommended for us to contact the electric company. He then called back later that night to make sure everything worked out and he also suggested another company to call to dig a tunnel to install a new electrical line. This company would end up saving us money compared to the electric company. I thought he was very helpful, honest, honorable, and he was knowledgeable over the phone. I will use his service again in the future.

I was extremely impressed with the quality of the work. While it took the better part of a day to get everything done, I am 100% confident in the strength of the ceiling fans' installation, and I love the dimmer box functions. The electric stove circuit had been useless to me since I got a gas stove, which had a simple plug for the display - now I have it plugged in immediately behind the range, and don't have to plug it in across the counter top. My favorite part is the outside outlet - they installed a larger outlet that has a cover, so that it's protected from the elements even when I have something plugged in. I would not have thought to request it, and was very happy to follow their recommendation.
Description of Work: They moved one ceiling fan to a different location, and installed three additional ceiling fans (for the bedrooms and the family room). In the bedrooms they also installed dimmer switches for the ceiling fans (and their lights), as well as heavy duty fan boxes in the ceiling. They installed a new vanity light in the downstairs bathroom, and removed the old light/medicine cabinet. Finally, they converted the existing 240 volt electric stove circuit to both an indoor dedicated 120 volt outlet for the gas stove, and an outdoor 120 volt outlet exactly opposite on the outer wall.

When quoting, "shoes are covered and great care is taken to treat customer's home with care". "Crew" arrived and no such care was taken. I suppose it's "my fault" for not telling the crew to cover all the newly remodeled surfaces before piling tools and debris onto the Swanstone tops. No problem, with a few hours of effort, we were able to remove nearly all the marks. Also, we decided just the night before the work to eliminate part of the job and keep existing items we thought we'd miss. We later received a scolding from Ellison for shorting him and leaving his crew with down time during that day (be sure you let them go ahead and cut up your home, even if you don't really want them to). This has never happened before with any other contractor we've hired! As a consultant and contractor myself, I understand the so-called problem, but I've never given the customer a hard time. Often, a customer will call again either for the same reason or something else, if their experience was a pleasant one. *** Having said all that, with the exception of one sconce that didn't work, everything else was okay. I repaired the problem with the non-working sconce with only 20 to 30 minutes involved. "Okay" is the important word here. Nothing struck me as Grade A work, just typical. I did advise Bill Ellison of the nature of the work provided. He was in Florida and said he'd look into it when he returned. I have not heard from him since and don't expect to as the work has been paid in full.*** If hiring Ellison, be sure to clearly state everything you want and specify your property is to be protected, but no matter who you hire: don't let them do anything to your home that you don't really want. It's your house and your money! I welcome any member to contact me directly regarding this experience.

Response from Ellison Electric Inc
WE HAVE COMPLETED WORK FOR THE MEMBER IN THE PAST AND HAVE NEVER HAD A RESPONSE LIKE THIS. WE WORKED VERY HARD HELPING THE CUSTOMER DESIGN EACH PROJECT INCLUDING LATE NIGHT 10:00 PM CALLS, FOR OVER 6 MONTHS. MY MEN WORE PROTECTIVE BOOTIES WHILE THEY WERE THERE EXCEPT ONE TIME. THE CUSTOMER ASKED US TO CARRY HIS HEAVY MEDICINE CABINET WITH GLASS, FROM THE GARAGE THROUGH THE HOUSE AND UP THE STAIRS. OUR BOOTIES ARE SLIPPERY AT TIMES AND WERE NOT ABOUT TO CARRY THE CABINET UP THE STAIRS AND RISK INJURY OR DAMAGING THE CABINET. CUSTOMER ASKED US TO REPLACE TWO EXISTING BATHROOM EXHAUST FANS SO WE HAD TALKED ALMOST DAILY ABOUT COMPLETING THIS WORK. THE NIGHT BEFORE HE NEVER MENTIONED ABOUT NOT COMPLETING THIS WORK. I EXPLAINED TO THE CUSTOMER THAT WE HAD SCHEDULED MY TWO MEN TO COMPLETE THIS WORK AND OTHER WORK ON THE SAME DAY. CUSTOMER CHANGED HIS MIND THAT MORNING WITHOUT THE POSSIBILITY OF RE-SCHEDULING WORK FOR MY MEN, A LITTLE COURTESY IS ALL I ASKED FOR. I DID NOT "SCOLD" THIS CUSTOMER, NOR ANY OF MY CUSTOMERS. WE CHECKED THE "NON-WORKING" SCONCE LIGHT FIXTURE WITH OUR LIGHT BULB BEFORE WE LEFT. THE CUSTOMER DID NOT PURCHASE LIGHT BULBS AND DID NOT WANT TO PAY US $1.25 FOR A BULB. THE REPAIR TO THE FIXTURE WAS THE CUSTOMER'S TIME PICKING UP LIGHT BULBS. I DID CONTACT THE CUSTOMER ABOUT HIS CONCERNS OVER THIS WORK AND THOUGHT I ADDRESSED HIS CONCERNS PROPERLY.

The light was out in the exhaust fan but the fan was working. I thought that they would have to replace the whole unit, but the technician that came out said that we probably wouldn't and called his boss that came out and said they could order a part to repair the exhaust fan. I told them that they wouldn't be able to come out until a month because I went on vacation and they said that would be fine and they would hold the part until then. When I came back from my vacation they came out and repaired the exhaust fan and didn't charge me extra for the visits and service calls. He was very personable and saved me money.
