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.
Description of Work: Installation of one lighted medicine cabinet; installation of two new boxes and three new fixtures; new dimmer switch and inspection of existing outlet.

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.

Bill is very careful and thorough. His estimate included everything we talked about and was sent the following morning after his visit. His team arrived right on time and finished before planned. I was impressed that they measured not once but three or more times to make sure the cans were placed correctly. There were times we had to adjust the layout because of studs and stuff in the ceiling and he was careful not to make a mess of our ceiling as this was being figured out. He was knowledgeable and had helpful advice when we were stumped on what decisions to make. He is aware of current codes and regulations and completed our job correctly and safely. On his second visit to finish up he was able to schedule a time convenient to us even though he was given fairly short notice. His team was respectful, friendly and equally responsible.
Description of Work: Bill installed 6 can lights, range hood, a fixture over the sink and 2 pendants. He moved power for the microwave and added 1 additional outlet. This involved cutting holes in the drywall and in the ceiling. He had to come out two times in order to allow for other contractors on the project. The first time was to do the rough in and install the cans. The second visit was to install the pendants and the range hood.

I left a message late Friday afternoon to ask for service. Mr. Ellison called me back on Saturday, left a message for me and asked that I call him anytime over the week-end. He was able to schedule immediately with me. Gentleman was polite and very knowledgeable. He corrected our problems and gave us tips for what was needed to save more problems in future. Very good overall experience and will get them out again for future needs.

Everything went just perfect from the estimate to the finishing of the job. Bill Ellison is excellent and he is definitely seeking customer satisfaction in everything he does in his profession. Everything he said he would do was done when and how he said it would be. He was very patient and detailed when answering questions and explaining things to me. If you need electrical work done look no further Ellison Electric is the one. You will not be disappointed!!!

Excellent. I have used Ellison Electric for years. Everything is excellent about this group of people. I call them for every electric need I have. Bill came in advance and gave a quote, we talked about issues (wire pulls, where to add new light switches, ceiling repair afterwards, etc..). Bill also gave a recommendation for someone to come and repair the ceiling...this person did a great job, too!

I was having new fiber cement siding installed on my house on a weekend when the lights in my entryway went out. We realized that a nail had likely come in contact with a wire, but needed an electrician to locate the place of contact and repair the wire. I planned to call Bill Ellison on Monday morning, but when my doorbell ringer started buzzing, emitting a burning smell and felt warm to the touch at 9:00 pm on Sunday evening I got scared. I called Bill right then and was absolutely shocked when he answered his phone! He told me what to do and that my situation wasn't dangerous. He told me he could send his crew out the next day. Chris and Jason were professional and explained exactly what happened to me and the siding crew. This was service above and beyond any reasonable expectations. A+++

I contacted Bill, he was very responsive and returned my calls promptly. We coordinated a time and he actually beat me to the house. Bill is very polite and went right to work. The smoke alarms needed to be replaced and I was apprehensive about doing anything electrical myself, but Bill showed me how easy they are to replace. The only problem was that I had purchased battery powered alarms as replacements instead of hard-wired (felt really stupid). However, Bill had a hard-wired replacement on his truck, so the price above reflects the cost of the smoke alarm plus his service charges, including Angie's List member discount. I would recommend Bill for anyone looking for an Electrican and I will use him again for any future needs.
Description of Work: Contacted to come out and check two malfunctioning hard-wired smoke alarms, and install two replacements I had purchased.

I have used Ellison Electric before and have always been very pleased with their workmanship and honesty. This latest job was no exception. I had them replace 10 recessed lights in my ceiling with lights that would permit contact with insulation. Chris from Ellison showed up on time, was very courteous, and did a great job, even though he had to crawl into some very tight areas in my attic. He was very efficient and finished the job faster than I expected. Because he was finished early, he was able to replace some additional recessed lights in closet ceilings that were not on the original estimate. He cleaned up the area when he was finished. I feel I got a great job at a decent price and would recommend Ellison to anyone.
