Adams A+ Electric

excellent and responsive

Great! He was easy to work with and gave me exactly what I needed.

The lighting in the bathroom was great but we were originally told they could fix our exhaust fan because it was blowing cold air in our bathroom. I even spoke to Richard about it before they did any work. The lighting was put in and his awesome helpers re-measured for the part on the exhaust fan and said Richard would "square up the bill with us" when the part came in. Over 2 weeks had passed and I had to call and text Richard several times about wanting him to fix the fan. I also wrote a note when I sent the payment for the lights, reminding him that he said they would do it. When he finally answered the phone, he knew why I was calling and probably regretted picking up the phone. He said "we don't really do duct work." This information would have been helpful in the beginning. When I told him that our original electrician installed the exhaust fan and asked if they should not have done it, he said they can do that work. It seemed like mixed messages to me. He suggested I contact a plumber and I told him that my concern is a plumber may not want to do such a small job. I knew there was no convincing him to do the right thing and honor what he said. If I owned a business, I would have done the work and told my employees that in the future they are to say they can not help with an exhaust fan. It was really frustrating and unfortunate that he could not consider how it felt to take showers in a cold bathroom.

never showed up to do work, said he would come on a day of week but no show

I called Adams A+ Electric and, after a somewhat disjointed conversation with Richard Adams about live, San Francisco, and a mutual interest, he agreed to stop by the house for a job appraisal. As promised, he arrived on time that evening and did his walkthrough. Richard advised me to make a couple of calls to check on previous work on the property and I did so the next day. I emailed him the pertinent info about who had done the previous electrical work as promised. He then said he knew and trusted the previous contractor and he'd get back to me. I waited several days and heard nothing. Worried, I then called him and asked what was what with our looming job. He hemmed and sputtered and said he was somewhat busy. I asked if he still wanted the job and he answered that he did. He agreed to call me about the actual work date during the final week in November. I asked if I needed to "remind" him and Richard answered that I didn't have to do that and that he would place a "large sticky note" as a reminder for himself ... That phone call was the last time I heard from him. Needless to say, we are disgusted to be treated in such a shabby fashion and will never ever use Adams A+ Electric for anything. And, yes, we have hired another electrician.

Great job!

A previous electrician thought it didn't need it but the bulbs (LED's) kept burning out, Mr. Addams explained that the sensor in the old fixture could not handle LED's and that the fixture was so old that it should be replaced--which is what I had wanted in the first place,. Mr. Adams replaced the fixture within a week. always called to explain any delay like the warehouse didn't have what I should have and when he would come. It was such a relief to have this professional do what he said he would do in a timely way. One last thing, he noticed that the lamp post light bulb was too low a wattage and replace that too. i could not be more pleased.

It was good. They're really good people. They're supposed to be coming next week again.

The electricians worked quickly and efficiently using skills and instincts honed by experience to maneuver new wires through invisible and almost impossible spaces. When small holes were necessary, they expertly filled them and used a drop cloth and vacuum cleaner to leave the areas clean. They took pride in their workmanship from start to finish leaving me very satisfied with the entire project.

My sincere apologies to Adams. Back in December of last year I wrote a partial review. My bad! They deserve an A rating then & now. He replied to my original review with an accurate assessment of the work completed. He was extremely professional & did not try to over service or sell. We are very pleased w/ the job.

called to see if this member serviced my particular area, I was told they do not and I was provided with another electrician not listed on angies list. My complaint is that when I tried to ask this member a question related to the individual recommended qualifications the response I received was absolutely rude and discourteous which I found totally unprofessional and would not recommend this member for others looking for electrical repair service.

says will do, no date set

Richard, the owner, came first to discuss what I wanted done the on another occasion 2 of Rick's men came and did the work. They were wonderful!! They explained what they were going to do then got right to work. They worked diligently and were very skilled and professional. They cleaned up after they finished and were very friendly.

Zeke, and Eric were very creative and kind to my nearly 100 yo arts and crafts style home. Efficient with placement, small size and low number of holes for access; excellent repair and clean up; good ideas, suggestions. They knew what to do and how to get the job done. Having them fix the holes instead of hiring a second person worked very well!!! Left me feeling that they take pride in their work and care about the needs of home owner. Thank you Adam's Electric, Rich, Eric, Zeke.

Richard worked thoughtfully with me to figure out the best route for the wiring (from an installer's point of view) and that would provide the least visual intrusion (from the user's point of view). Richard's crew was superb -- efficient, respectful, and careful (cleaned up after themselves!). When the kiln had been delivered, Richard came back to inspect the wiring, then plugged in the kiln and checked that the draw was correct and everything in order. Very pleased. I'll be calling him in for any future electrical work!

I couldn't agree more with the other reviewer who stated "No Follow Through". I have been nothing if not patient, sending a variety of emails to inquire on status of an estimate. I got one telling me he'd been on vacation (no mention of this in the initial walk-through). and after a polite reply inquiring about my estimate... nothing. OK, maybe you're small, maybe you're not interested in the work I need done. But PLEASE just tell me-- and stop stringing me along with a complete lack of response-- very disappointed. I'd suggest skipping this guy and trying someone who answers emails/.

Don't waste your time ... these folks don't follow through. After having me send pictures of the work area, the light fixture, and answering a myriad of questions, the service provider just disappeared. I know tradesmen are busy now and only want the big profitable jobs, but they do the public a disservice by cherry-picking the work they'll do and simply ignoring the customers they don't want to be bothered with. This company could have saved everyone a lot of time by stating they only want certain kinds of work.

Adams A+ Electric has done a lot of work for us over the years. Most important was his work eight years ago in wiring our addition. The work has been consistently good, though many contractors do good work. Perhaps as important, he is reachable: by phone and text, and he responds immediately or else the same day. I have recommended Adams A+ to numerous friends, and will do so again. (Other friends have also been happy with the service.)

Owner was very rude when he answered the phone. After explaining I was not a telemarketer, he informed me that he was getting inundated with calls after he paid to have Angie's list advertise that special and that too many people responded and he could not honor the deal. Would not take the job!

Very efficient and he really knows his stuff. You could tell he just really knew his stuff. And he works quickly and he's efficient.

Richard Adams' work is neat and professional. He is very happy to explain exactly what he is doing to you. He is also very knowledgeable about home improvement/renovation/energy efficiency. He has explained to us how to repair things ourselves and saved us a lot of money.
