+ -1 moreMike Yawnick never showed up to start the work, install the generator. He has not payed us back the $5000.00 deposit. Do not trust this guy.
Description of Work: Mike Yawnick, owner of Maplewood Electric was referred to us through a friend to install an emergency generator fro our home on the north shore. He arrived at my home and I spent about a half hour with him discussing what type of generator I was looking for and where to install it. I decied upon one of the larger generators. I wrote him a check fro $5000 which covered about half of the estimate, including the cost for him to buy the generator. A few weeks went by and no word form him. When I did get ahold of him he said the generator I ordered was backordeed because of the huge demand fro generators resulting from hurricane Katrina and it might be a coople months. So I waited. To make a long story short, no return calls, no return emails and I am out $5,000.00 My wife did reach him once and he was very apologetic and asked if we wanted the money back or he could complete the work (with the generator). Obviously we wanted the money abck. That was about a year ago and still nothing. We've contacted a lawyer and no luck. And this guy is still in business. Beware. He is a smooth talker. I am ocnsidering calling a collection firm and offering them a large % of the money they collect. It's too bad, this guy really seemed nice and very knowledgeable. But he is a thief.

+ -1 moreThey were horrible. They sent out someone to fix a generator and he told me that it needed a new battery and then he went out and got the battery and he put it in. He did some other service to it; I'm not exactly sure what. I think that the first guy came in a truck. Then all of a sudden, one day, the owner's son showed up in a regular car and it didn't have any kind of identification or anything like that. I said that, what are you here for and I can't remember what he told me for what he was here for and then I said well I didn't call you guys for anything. I said I hope you're not charging me for this visit. He called his dad and he did it on a two way radio so I could hear what he said, and he said something like, the lady said she doesn't want to be charged for the visit, and he said well I'd like to charge her for the visit and I said, I hope you're not going to charge for the visit, I never even called you to come out here; I don't know what you're here for. It was like the weirdest thing. Then in the end, they ever even charged me for anything. They never sent me a bill; nothing and I think it was because they were kind of scamming me. I would pay a bill if it showed up, but nothing ever showed up. It was just a totally weird interaction.
Description of Work: They did work for me over a year and a half ago.

+ 0 moreThe project went perfectly. There was a problem with the hot tub heater not working quite right, and Mike called the manufacturer to talk it through. There was something unique to our electrical box that was not covered in the standard manufacturer's instructions, and he was patient and thorough, and saw it through. He is meticulous about his work, leveling all the pendant lights so that they were perfectly aligned, and the ceiling cans are seamless. He is always pleasant and on time, and does top notch work.
Description of Work: Mike installed the wiring for a hot tub, wired three pendant lights, and installed a dozen can lights throughout the first floor.
