Perfect! Ordered a Generac generator from Costco in December. Brian came over to evaluate the site and to explain where it would go. Michelle the scheduler set up Feb. 4th as the installation date. On Feb. 4th Brad showed up with a crew of 4 more and went to work. As we have been in the house for six months the basement is still full of half empty boxes and bicycles and lawn equipment. etc. The crew took care on moving things out of their way and get the job done. completed the job in late afternoon. Cleaned up and left the house in perfect shape.

Mike from Oak Electric performed the service this year. Oak installed my unit 7 years ago and has performed the annual maintenance every year. I've always received exceptional service from them. Mike was consistent with what I've come to expect from Oak: professional, intelligent, great communications and friendly.

I apologize - I emailed your estimator to inquire as we do in fact install quite a bit of solar each year. Your estimator is very knowledgeable in the solar field and after reviewing the text messages exchanged between the two of you - it seems the route of his recommendations were not what you had in mind. I can promise you that we do have your best interest as our top priority and his recommendation was intended to indeed be in your best interest. I am sorry that it did not seem that way to you.

Installation took more than 12 weeks. The delay primarily the responsibility of Consumers Energy. However getting information on scheduling from Crystal was less than optimal, several phone calls without a call back. Finally Amanda got involved and that’s when we got results.

I checked into (and addressed) your concerns and I apologize that you are unhappy with the level of service you received. We pulled together our system notes and checked Krystal's email and here is what we found: The timeline does properly coincide with pre-install items that needed to be done but that the return to complete install had a bigger gap than we would have liked. We received your deposit on 9/25/17, you were originally scheduled for installation on 11/6/2017, your generator was preset on 11/2/2017. You then informed Krystal that Consumers Energy had not contacted you back regarding your meter upgrade. When you contacted her with the date, she scheduled your install around the same day as the meter upgrade 12/12/17 (as we do not install generators prior to these upgrades - this is to protect your generator as it can do damage to run without this being done). Amanda was Krystal's assistant at that time. I do see that we did not finish your installation on 12/12/17 and I am sorry that there was a delay in our return 12/23/17. We truly appreciate your business! PS I am so happy to have just heard (from Nena in our Inspection Dept) that you were recently without power for approx. 4 hours and your generator was there for you!

The technician who came out was professional and did a fine job. However, dealing with Oak Electric was not without some problems. On initial contact, we were told someone would get "right back" with us soon to schedule a job appraisal visit. When we did not hear back by the next day, we called again and then someone called to schedule the visit. We decided to hire Oak, and we agreed to a time on Monday, March 21. Unfortunately, after about 1.5 hrs past the scheduled arrival time, we contacted Oak only to find out that the technician did not show up for work that day. Apparently, he did not contact his employer so they could contact us. We agreed to reschedule for the morning of Wednesday, March 23. We were told the technician would call before he arrived. We appreciate that because we have a dog that we prefer to crate when repairmen come to the house. The technician arrived on March 23 without phoning, which was annoying, and he said he was not asked to phone first. As mentioned previously, the installation went off without a hitch, the technician gave us a price, and we paid by credit card. We were told an invoice would be emailed to us. When we received the invoice, it said we owed $106 more than the technician told us. When we complained, Oak adjusted the bill. The communication between Oak and their technicians seems to need improvement. Again, the work was fine, and everyone was polite. Perhaps our experience was not typical, but nothing about our encounter with Oak would encourage us to hire them again for electrical work.

We apologize for your experience - much of that is due to the transition to our new scheduling / billing system but please do not think we are making an excuse, only offering an explanation. Our hope is that in the future it will allow us to improve our efficiency and level of customer service but in the short term it did create a few problems. Again, our apologies.

I hired them to work on 2 jobs we were doing. One was new service feed to home the other was 2 lights in a bathroom. In both cases the homeowners had them do additional work while they were there. A year and a half later I received a letter from a collection agent stating we did not pay our bill. When I called to discus this they were very rude and did not want to hear about why they were not paid. They stated they had emailed me invoices and I ignored them. I could not find any emails from them regarding this. I asked where are you sending the invoices to? One email they gave me was not an email, it was my business. com address, the other email was my customer!. I was able to get a hold of him and he looked it up and found it on his email a bill for me. They sent invoice to him as well as for another job in a different town. I asked if they could send me invoices to the correct address and cancel the collection? She said it had been to long and they could not cancel collection until I paid. Remember I received no invoices. So I went to there office to try to resolve. I had the emails from the customer showing they were billing the wrong guy. They also had a woman's name and phone number Diane. Not knowing who she was I called her from Oak Electric and put her on speaker phone. Turns out she is another customer of mine they did work for. They were sending her bills, every time she would call and say hey you are sending me Alpine Roofing's invoices. They said they would take care of it every time. They never did! What happened to customer is always right? I also have referred them out to dozens of my customers for generators and electrical needs. When I told the girl that she did not believe me. Remember Diane? she had them do a whole house generator on my recommendation.

Would not recommend this company. I felt I received an egregious quote simply by the area code I lived in. Be cautious dealing with this company. The main reason I am writing this is if a person had no better understanding of what the market bears for this work and would be highly taken advantage of.
Description of Work: I simply need a 200 AMP service panel installed and consolidated. I had 5 other Master Electricians come over and quote 1500-2000 for the job. Oaks quoted me $3500, $1500-$2000 more than all other electricians. The guy Josh who was a Journey Man electrician came over and provided the quote. He didn't even unscrew the panel to see what the job entailed, nor inspect work for grounding and riser. Absolutely unprofessional quote and no time or effort put into the initial engagement.

Response from Oak Electric Service Inc
We are sorry that you feel this way and that you are upset by our higher quote. Please be assured we would never conduct business (nor have we ever in all of these years) in a manner in which we quote based on area code. While we realize that we are not always the most inexpensive, we do try to be the most thorough and cover everything up front but this can sometimes mean more expensive as a result - there are times that our quote is not Exactly what another quotes (apples to apples). Josh did let us know he contacted you several times and met with you more than once - please feel free to reach out to him to further discuss.

It went extremely well, could not have gone any better. The crew of Brett, Alex and Gavin were outstanding in every regard! They were very prompt and very professional. I expected to have to clean up after them but there was nothing to clean up at all. You would never know they had been here except for the generator outside. I would hire Oak Electric again, for any job, in a heartbeat!
