I would never hire this company again!!! Technicians were professional but just didn't install the dining room fan correctly the first time so they had to return to my home and make sure the ceiling fan was flush with my ceiling. I had no issues with the technicians. The work was performed to my satisfaction. They were honest men and realized that I did not need to install the second newly purchased kitchen fan because all it needed was a screw to be tightened. However, when the invoice arrived in the mail, the cost was not even close to what was quoted. I called to resolve what I considered a totally unreasonable invoice and my integrity was questioned. I was accused of calling to " purposely trying to get electrical work for nothing " I was made to feel that it was my responsibility to pay for the return visit of the technicians to fix a job that was not done correctly in the first place. So I have to pay the hourly rate for a job not done right in the first place??? Brian was extremely rude, arrogant and demeaning to me. It was the worst customer service conversation that I had ever experienced in my lifetime!!!! All I wanted was a fair price for the work rendered based on what I was quoted. Beware ...a quote may hold no meaning in dealing with this company.
Description of Work: Two ceiling fans installed as well as a dimmer switch

Brian was incredibly helpful and very responsive. He communicated with me consistently and was not only punctual but early - he re-arranged his schedule to meet my needs to be sure I was able to review the home in a timely fashion to meet contractual deadlines. He evaluated the connections and points of concern, provided his professional opinion and went above and beyond to tighten and secure all screws and connections to be sure that that safety was assured. He was very friendly and a pleasure to work with. Will absolutely work with him again in the future for any electrical needs!
Description of Work: Reviewed the potential aluminium wiring in a home I am looking to purchase and evaluated the safety and soundness of the connections.

See above. Electrician seemed to enjoy talking about a business he wants to start. We feel the charge was excessive, as actual work time was less than 1/2 hour. The electrician said the company charges $72.00 per hour and he would tell the office of that. Did not leave us a bill or statement of work accomplished. Just received and mailed payment 04/11/2013.
Description of Work: The electrician thought the job was different from service requested and required. Had a very heavy brass chandelier installed. Too heavy for one person to hold and wire. He supposedly called for a helper. After a considerable wait, my wife and I told him we would hold the chandelier while he wired it and attached to the ceiling.

I had 3 small electrical things that needed fixing, and they sent an excellent problem-solver. 2 of the fixes were extremely simple (something had come loose kind of thing) and the electrician was totally honest and explained exactly what the deal was. Another company might have made more of a big deal of it and charged me more.
Description of Work: outlet that didn't work; put in new light to replace old; another small item.

We tried to get a quote for 2 weeks without success. A person came to the house. After hearing nothing for a week we called. We were told that the quote was left on our answering machine. We said that we didn't get it. The person couldn't produce a quote and came to our house to review (again) what needed to be done. Another week has passed and we still haven't received a quote. They may do quality work, but I believe that if they aren't interested enough to provide a quote they would be equally as disinterested in performing the service.

As mentioned this company came on very short notice and seemed very professional and knowledgeable. I required a lot of misc. electrical work to be done which I do not have the time to provide in great detail...however the biggest work consisted of installing a new circuit breaker in the house, replacing several 2-prong outlets with new 3-prong outlets, installing several GFI outlets, and making sure I had the correct type of outlet for safe window air-conditioner installation in three bedrooms. The reason I did not hire this company on this occasion was that out of three electrical company estimates I obtained for the same work they were much more expensive. However, as mentioned above they do give a good impression so I would attempt to hire them in future if I feel the price is reasonable.
Description of Work: Casper G. Sippel, Inc. arrived at my rental property on time and on very short notice. They toured the property and listened to my explanation of what electrical work I wanted performed on the house. They answered all my questions. Several days later I was faxed the estimate.

An estimator came right away and prepared an estimate. The receptionist was very friendly as well. The estimator responded to my concerns and explained the process throughly. Steve and Dustin came and installed the lighting. They were very professional, friendly, and calm. They called ahead to let me know they were coming. They did a great job and cleaned up well. They even wiped off the fingerprints. They were so careful with my plaster ceiling. I don't have any holes or painting to do at all. Something done right for once!
Description of Work: 3 recessed lights installed with a dimmer switch into an old plaster ceiling, 2 outside lights installed, and 2 electrical outlets replaced.

I called Casper Sipple and asked for an appointment for an estimate. I was constantly having trouble with tripping the circuit breaker. My condo is on the 2nd floor and the main electrical boxes are in the basement. Archie, the estimator, showed up right on time on the day of the appointment. He studied the electrical boxes in the basement and inside my condo. He is an older gentleman and he explained why the old circuits were set up that way and how he could update the box so I would have enough electricity to run all of my appliances when I want. He told me he would mail me a quote within a week and I got it in the mail a few days later. My husband (an engineer) said, "Yep-this is a good quote and they sound like they know what they are doing." They warned me it could take 2 days. I asked them to please get it done in one day if they could! I was taking a day off from work and did not want to take 2 days. Plus, it was right before Christmas and I really wanted to have proper electricity for the holidays! On the day of the job, 2 guys showed up and it was very clear that the guy in charge was experienced. He gave instructions to guy #2 all day and they worked very smoothly together. I also had a plumber working on the same day, and it was a pleasure how professional everyone was. Also, I would say we got lucky. The beams in the ceiling were set up so only a few holes had to be cut. Originally, I did not ask for a light fixture to be hung. But when I saw the hole in the ceiling, it gave me the idea that I'd like to have a light there, and I asked if they could do it. The answer was yes, and I ran out to a home improvement store to get a light real quick. They also made the new light work with the existing switch on the wall. They finished everything by 3 pm and tidied up. When I got the quote, I had to mail a check for 1/3 down before they would schedule the work. I expected to pay the other 2/3 on the day of the job, but they said, "No, we will bill you." OK, that was fine with me. I got the bill about a week later, and it is due within 30 days. And they only charged me an extra $80 for the new light they added. I really appreciated their flexibility, and it is nice to have a little leeway with paying the final balance.
Description of Work: New circuit breaker box, new outlet, and hung light fixture.

Archie initially came out to make an estimate, but after looking at the job (a job that another company had refused to undertake) he proceeded to fix it himself, and charged me for just one hour's work. He's very nice, very friendly, extremely knowledgeable, and a good story teller! The only complaint I have, and it's minor, is that he is not always super-prompt about returning phone calls. Occasionally, I have to call twice.
Description of Work: I had a bathroom light fixture that protruded from the wall. I wanted it set flush with the wall. This, however, was trickier than it sounds, as the electrical box protruded into some wooden molding above a built-in medicine chest. Nor could the box be moved upwards, because that would interfere with pipes.

Our overall experience with Casper G. Sipple Inc is somewhat complicated. They have been the exclusive electrician for our family since 1972. The electricians are excellent, the estimators are excellent, the prices are fair. The scheduling and dispatch parts of the business need to be addressed. I am most frustrated by this and will not be using Sipple again. The simple fact is that we have wasted hours and hours waiting for them only to be told that they are not coming. This is not the fault of the electricians, but of the management. As good as the electricians are, if we can no longer trust that they are coming, then they are of no help.
Description of Work: I attempted to have the work done twice. No one showed up for the first appointment. I was then forced to continue toward my deadline without having the electrical work done. When I could go no further I schedule Sipple Inc to return. We arranged a time, they cancelled in the morning of the day they were to show up. The caller told me that they were overbooked and that many of their electricians were on vacation. I don't question the high quality work done by the electricians and estimators. I do question the management and schedulers who seem to have trouble setting and keeping appointments. On two occasions, they called to ask me to tell them the time and date of the appointment because they forgot to write it down.

The estimator took time to work out the manner in which to approach the job for satisfactory results. The workers arrived on time and were careful, polite, and serious workers. They were careful to clean up after themselves. I have used this company many times in other locations and have complete confidence in the competency of the electricians and the fairness in pricing. I have no qualms about recommending this company to friends.
