Professional response by Curt to our inquiry and he provided us with a detailed and clear estimate. Work scheduled in a timely manner. Curt walked throug the work to be done with the crew and then we didn't see him again (actually we were surpised he didn't stop by to check on the workers/work and we didn't hear from him after the work was completed ... he was so professional we felt for sure he would as a good business practice. Guys that did the job were young and seemed to do a good job from what we say and know and we've had no problems with the work. Since we had the work done we found some bills from electrical work done at our prior home about 3 years ago and were able to draw several price comparisons. Four Star's pricing ran about 30-40% more for similar items. Even the guys from FS that worked out our house said their "prices are high, but they are worth it". I'd say their work is good and doing business with FS is acceptable (found COD a bit odd though) but their prices are high. I'd used them again for small work but will be sure to get other estimates before contracting them for anything major.
Description of Work: Lots of small items (moving light fixtures, insalled light timers and switches, removed alarm system, added new outlets)

I guess they are busy. Wish they had done as I asked. It's a relatively small job, and I called last week to set up they appointment.
Description of Work: I asked that someone come out to install a junction box. When I called the day of the appointment, they ha me down only for an estimate, not doing the actual job (which is what I wanted, since I knew roughly what the job would cost.)

He installed it behind the electrical panel, and I didn't have time to see him put it in since I was watching my 2 kids at the time. But, he was prompt, professional and after about 45 minutes he said it was all set and gave me a certificate. The only drawback was that the warranty was only 1 year, which I found odd.

Not really much of a value at all. The part that was installed costs $50 on line and the tech who was very qualified and very efficient, did the work in about 15 minutes. The $315 value listed as the MSRP of the project was extremely misleading. Responsiveness and efficiency of the company is excellent. Just a misleading Big Deal.

The crew at Four Star Lighting & Electric are top notch from beginning to end. Customer service is a clear priority for this company starting from the initial phone call through the full install. Curt and I discussed my projects and he gave me guidance on my options with full transparency in cost drivers of the work; his motivation was pure and driven by doing things the right way not just the easy or more lucrative way for them. The whole process was quick, easy, and done with excellence. I would definitely recommend Four Start Lighting & Electric to others and will be calling upon them myself for any future needs.

Came the day after I called, found the issue and fixed it right away. Work looks good, and he even suggested a change to the way my wall switches control the outlet that improved the lighting situation in our home office.

They were good, I would just give them good. They were a little high priced but they were good. Overall give them an A because I might have to use them again and I don't want them to be mad at me. Their quality of service is good, excellent. Their responsiveness is excellent.

Not well. Joe's first impression needs work. I didn't get through the estimate and walk through with him before deciding that we wouldn't work well together. He arrived late because I had to call and confirm the appointment before he'd leave his house. I understand the practice, but I didn't know about it beforehand. I was lucky to check my cell phone, get the voicemail, and return his call. If I hadn't, he'd have been a no show. During the walk through, I mentioned that the landscaper would lay the wire from the post lights to the house. He wasn't a fan of the idea since he's pulling the permit. Instead of a simple objection, he ranted for 3 minutes about how this could affect his livelihood. We weren't in a conversation, there was no eye contact. He was just mad. It's not important that he had good reasons and it's not important that he may have been right. It was the personality flaw that ended our work together 10 minutes after it began.
Description of Work: Gave me an estimate for some outdoor landscaping - post lights, security lights, outlets, and so on.

[Member name removed] , sorry you feel that way but I believe you distorted the truth in the description what happen. You did not say I called twice to confirm appointment one hour before you called back,and the only number given to me was your cell number. the explanation was to educate you that under state and local code the electrician was to do the wiring not the landscaper or driveway paving company, since we were responsible for electrical permits. Good luck with project.

electrician, generator service
  + 0 more
The company's owner came out and provided a detailed estimate and a description of the work to be done. The generator was installed on its own foundation and their electrician did the complete wiring. The gas company was contacted to install a high pressure case line for the generator. They also recommended a plumber to perform the final hook up of the gas line to the generator. About a year after installation the generator failed to start and they quickly came out and replace the faulty gas regulator which was covered under warranty. The people are professional and easy to work with. I highly recommend them if you are in the market for a home generator.
Description of Work: We have been using Four Star Lighting to install and maintain our Gernerac home (13 KW) generator for more than 5 years. They did the installation (excluding the natural gas line) yearly maintenance, and repairs. The installation was professionally done. They installed an automatic switchover to/from the generator when line power went out and was restored. They have responded quickly to repair calls twice now. They have also provide a yearly maintenance contract. They are very reliable and deliver prompt service.

The company is well run and very customer focused. They have come out very quickly when the generator stopped working during a power outage and repaired the unit. They are very professional and do a though job for both maintance and repairs.
Description of Work: About 8 years ago Four Star Lighting installed a standby generator and performs yearly mantence on the unit as well as any repair work. The generator automatically switches the house off the electrical grid when an outage occurs and returns to grid when power is restored. The unit runs off a separate natural gas line.
