Description of Work: The work was done fine by Mr.Yates but he billed me for two workers, when he did it all. That was an extra $60 an hour. The only thing his wife did was to go out tovan and bring a piece of equpiment which he could have easily gotten himselfI will not use him again.

Description of Work: Electrical light socket was installed backwards. When I later tried to attatch the fixture cover, the lightbulb extended outside the fixture. Thought I was helping my husband by having this done professionally, now I'm having to hide it. I was given a 20% for Angies List member.

Response from YATES ELECTRIC INC
Member, I back my work 100% for 1 full year. If there was a problem you should have addressed it with me at the time or called me to come back and repair the situation that was making you unhappy. I would have done this without charge. Your still within the 1 year time and I will be glad to readdress this with you. Sorry your not happy with the service, but I will make it right if I can. Mark Yates

We were satisfied with them. They came and looked at the issue. It was basically embarrassing because they had to just press the restart button in our outlets and they worked. He did let us know that our refrigerator was the one that was zapping everything and that we can not plug that one with anything else.
Description of Work: Yates Electric Inc fixed some of our outlets that were not working and also fixed our refrigerator a couple of weeks ago.

Called and left message. Mark Yates (owner) called me back the same day around 7 PM after he had shoulder surgery that very day. He suggested severals things to try in an attempt to prevent actually having to make the service call. They were at my house the next morning and quickly determined and fixed the problem. Before leaving - I asked him to send me a quote on another project!
Description of Work: 5 outlets in house not functioning but no circuit breakers were tripped. Determine outlet in chain that was causing the problem and replaced.

We called Yates Electric as a result of an electrical fire in the home. We had been having problems with our electrical wiring and this brought the situation to a head. Mr. Yates, a master electrician came out immediately to review the situation. The next two days he devoted two men to work at fixing all the wiring problems in the home. One of these gentlemen was also a master electrician. They showed up to work promptly, were cheerful and courteous, and cleaned up after themselves. They located many hidden problems which had developed over the years. Some of these were the result of a remodel where one of the men messed up the wiring and then left in the middle of the job. We did not know the extent of the damage he had done until Yates Electric started fixing all the problems. We fell confident that our home is now safely wired. We highly recommend this company for any electrical work you need to have done.
Description of Work: Came out after an electrical fire in the home which started in the bedroom where our granddaughter and two of her friends had been having a sleepover. Yates Electric performed a thorough review of all household wiring fixing many problems that had developed over the years.

We selcted Mark Yates after interviewing several electricians. Ha was the most knowledgeable and helpful. Mark and Earl(his helper) spent about 10 hours performing the work and were very particuliar about how the work was done and how the reults were perceived by me and my wife. In addition, they gave us valuable advice about how to ensure that the new fans would continue to work effectively.
Description of Work: Installed several new electrical outlets, lights and fans; and corrected a problems with a circuit breaker.

They were great. I talked directly to the owner. He was very nice and answered all of my questions. He wanted to meet my request by coming the same day but all of his guys were busy. So, he came to my house himself and fixed the problem very quickly. He was very helpful and professional. We would/will use them again.
