It did not go well !! I can't afford that much expense, and especially since the work was never completed.
Description of Work: This electrician worked at my place of Business, I asked him to fix a few outdoor plug outlets ( he puttied them up) but they still don't work. Couldn't find a way to have 2 outdoor flood lights work. I am only writing this review, since he charged me $600+ for possibly $200 worth of work. Still couldn't find the problem, with the outdoor lights. Had another electrician correct 1 outdoor light in 15 minutes. The other light will have to wait, since I overpaid for the services. The only outdoor light he put up, works, but doesn't nearly cover the amount of space in my parking lot than the old one did. He mentioned the new light should cover more range-(DOESN'T). He was pleasant, somewhat helpful, but did not fix what I needed, and I can't afford to have him back, since he couldn't figure out the light in the 1st place. I personally wouldn't have him back. In addition, I asked him to run over to my house, (6 miles away) to fix a small thing, he stated that he would, than he did not, I was trying to get him while he was trying to fix my work electrical needs. He kept putting it off. Than he had the nerve to tell me that it was such a small job, that he wish he knew ahead of time that it would be so quick, yet he still charged me $ 100 to connect a microwave(took 30 minutes to install) The reason I asked him to hook up the microwave in the 1st place, was to use part of the time he was at my work to hook this up. The cost would have been much less...Overall, he could have and should have charged me much less. I finally realized that he wasn't going to help the situation, so I haven't and won't ask him back..

It went really well. He returned my call about scheduling the project within a couple of hours, and scheduled the work for the next day. He came right on time (after calling an hour ahead, as promised). They did a great job replacing the track light and left the room in as good condition as when they arrived.
Description of Work: Rich and his helper replaced a track light.
