"1. Called and stated my issue/concern very clearly stated I need the issue diagnosed and me to be INFORMED of any work performed PRIOR to it being done and invoiced. 2. Day one - MIKE came to assess and could not get in my crawlspace because he said he could not fit. Meanwhile the issue persists 3. Days later - MIKE and another plumber came out. Funny how MIKE was able to get in the crawlspace with him that day. They were down there over an HOUR. The goal was to figure where the leak was coming from and go about the best way to handle it. 4. MIKE was asked by the city plumbing inspector to put 4 tiny screws in my new water heater pipe to pass inspection (installed by another company) - MIKE made the choice to do it and it was done. 5. MIKE and the other plumber went into my bathroom and fiddled around. I heard every word that was spoken though MIKE thought he was whispering. He told the other plumber just get the silicon and seal the drain and put this MF'er back in there. He came out with his invoice saying they had stopped the drainage from the tub by sealing the drain as well as the pipe in the crawlspace with silicone caulk. I 6. i was charge a total of $377. Over 200 in labor and 89 for a trip charge, taxes and oh an $18 merchant fee for running the charge on my credit card. He also told me when I asked if this was a good solution that yes, it was, but that if my tub started leaking in the next 90 days, to call them and they would come out to do the work but it would be near $1,000 more? I was confused and I expressed my confusion because I must have missed the part where he had given me my options to either REPAIR or REPLACE - rather than putting a patch on it and giving me an invoice for it. 7. I called to get clarification the next day and was told the manger would call me bk. Which he did later on. I tried to ask clarifying questions about why I was charge for so much what is basically a band-aid that has no addressed the issues. The manager was off-putting and cut me off with every thing I tried to say. He felt the charges were appropriate and told me that plumbing work "isn't free". Duh, do you think I do not KNOW? But who wants to be charged for something they know will not address the issue? His tone was off-putting and he had an excuse for every concern I brought up. No concern at all! 8. Leading me to my final point. I called another plumbing company to take a look and find out what I had been smelling in my vents. They sent someone from HVAC first then a plumber (SAME DAY), Night and day difference with the other company from the service to the communication! They took pictures and I mean took pictures of all pipes not just one. I had puddles on top of my vapor barrier causing the smell. It was from my toilet and, you guessed it MY TUB. FRESH leakage from both which NCM said did not exist after they were done. 9. I called today, and obviously the NCM is not answering my calls purposely. 10. I have plans to take them to small claims court and get my money back. Period Takeaway - DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY. SAVE YOURSELF THE TROUBLES!"

"Do NOT use this company unless you want to be charged astronomically higher than what you should be. I had a furnace/air system put in and charged over 10,000 when unit itself costs a little over 3,000. Had pipes in kitchen alone done and charged 2,800 and left the wall out from floor to ceiling where pipes went. Now 5 years after purchasing this unit tried to charge me $800 for a part repair that was under warranty so that was for labor alone went elsewhere and had done for $180. They take advantage of people that aren’t knowledgeable on what stuff like this should cost. Don’t appreciate repeat customers and you will never pay a fair price avoid at all costs."

It’s important to ask an electrician a few questions before you commit to hiring them so you can make an informed decision as a consumer. If you’re getting estimates or considering hiring an electrician, ask them these questions:
Are you a full-time electrician?
Are you bonded, licensed, and insured?
What level of experience do you have as an electrician?
Can you please share three references?
Do you do residential or commercial electrical work?
What kinds of electrical work are you most familiar with?
Will any subcontractors be performing the work?
Are permits and inspections required?
Who is responsible for obtaining permits and inspections?
What is your schedule?
Do you offer a guarantee or warranty on your work?
Will you sign a do-not-exceed clause to keep the job within the budget?
Tipping an electrician is not a requirement nor is it expected, as they build a fair wage into the price of the job. It’s up to your discretion. There are no set rules for tipping electricians, but if they did a great job and you’re so inclined to tip 10% to 15%, it will likely be received with thanks.
Yes, you should get a quote or an estimate from an electrician. Most electricians offer free estimates or quotes. When getting quotes, do your research and verify each electrician’s license. Get quotes from three different electricians to compare. If the prices or items listed appear different on the quotes, ask the electrician to clarify. Learning as much as you can about the electrical work you want done will help you get the most accurate estimate.
Qualified, licensed electricians will charge from $50 to $100 per hour. The cost to hire an electrician for emergency visits may range from $100 to $200 per hour because this urgent service usually takes place during off hours and may require an electrician to leave or reschedule jobs they’re currently working on. Scheduling work on holidays or during periods of high customer demand, like after a major storm, will also lead to higher rates or extra fees.
Yes, although there are different types of electricians, they must be licensed, certified, and in most cases insured. States have different requirements for electrician licensing and certifications. In some cases, there may be licensing requirements at the local level, but not the state level. It’s always a good practice to confirm requirements with your local municipality. If licensing is not required in your area, you may pay more for a licensed electrician with experience than one who is not licensed or certified, but you’re likely to get a better end result for your project.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
