The contractor was very kind and professional on the phone. We had an electrical repair for a rental that needed to be completed by s licensed electrician for a city inspection. The contractor told me he knew the inspector and would call him and take care of everything. While away for our anniversary I receive a call from my shop manager telling me we have been fined $220 by the city for the work not being completed.

I got a fast response from the contractor. Electrician arrived when he said he would. Very polite and professional. Before he came in to the house, he put on slippers over his shoes. This made a good impression. It took him about an hour and a half to replace the dryer outlet and install my porch light. The old porch light was not 'up to code' so he had to go to Home Depot for a part. He was able to do this in an hour and a half. Will definitely call them again if I need electrical work done. Price for the service and parts was reasonable too.

The job went wonderfully. Andrew, the electrician, did the work for the company and did an excellent job. He installed 12 recessed lights in the great room and though the room is L shaped he was able to line them up beautifully. All of the work he did was flawless. Also, the company provided some additional electrical work for me without charge when I added a bar area to the overall plan that needed electrical work as well.

They were punctual, friendly, and very professional. The work was inspected without a hitch, and they even went to some extra trouble to install the hard-wired smoke detector in a hard-to-access spot where my wife and I wanted it. I don't know enough to know how competitive the price for this work was, but everything else about their work was clearly excellent.
Description of Work: Installed new wiring for a new powder room, installed hard-wired smoke detectors in front hallway and basement, and properly shielded some of the previous owners' unsafe wiring that they discovered during the work.

When I called Duluth Electrical on a Friday, they got right back to me and apologized that it wasn't even sooner (it was spring-break week). None of the work was urgent, but they sent Dave the next week, and he arrived on the dot Tuesday morning. I had him fix a blown outlet, a semi-detached doorbell, reversed polarity in another outlet, a missing junction box cover, a broken switch and a hanging wire, and I asked for advice about a couple of things. At one point he needed a certain kind of plate, so he made a call and pretty soon another guy showed up at the door with what he needed. He was pleasant and professional, really whizzed around, got everything done and left, spending about two hours. No complaints!
Description of Work: Dealt with several small problems identified by the inspector when we bought our house.

John of Duluth Electrical Contracting responded promptly to my bid request. I had called several other electrical contractors for bids, but none returned my calls. I had to wait about three weeks from bid acceptance until work could be done because of Duluth Electrical's busy schedule. On scheduled work date, the electrician arrived right on time and the work was done within two hours without problems. Nice professional job.
Description of Work: Installed two circuits and three outlets in basement, including one 220 volt outlet for dryer. Also switched one old outlet to GFI to meet code.

This was not a big, complicated job. It was begun and completed on the same day as described above. The electrician from D.E.C. installed the ventilation fan (which they provided and billed for in accordance with the estimate) in the basement, wired and installed a wall switch in the bath for which the ventilation system was installed and added the required new breaker to our electrical panel. After Dave left, Neil was able to finish all of the rest of the job--installing the intake grill above the shower head; installing the duct work that ran through the linen closet directing the air from the intake into the basement and thence into the fan previously installed by Dave. Neil then drilled through the basement concrete sill and installed duct work from the fan's exhaust to the outside. Everything was completed professionally, courteously and efficiently and all completed the same day and all at the agreed upon, reasonable cost. I don't think it gets much better than that.
Description of Work: The estimate ($675.00) and the scheduling (for 4/3/13) was provided by John Stephan of Duluth Electrical Contracting. John was very friendly and responsive to questions about details of the job, including who would the mechanical aspects of the job. He provided an estimate that also quoted a price estimate from another firm that would be doing the duct work and venting for the job. The final bill for the job was as quoted: $675.00 which included installation of a ventilation fan that D.E.C. provided in addition to installing the wiring, switch and breaker. The electrician arrived at 7:00 a.m. on 4/3 as scheduled. If my memory serves correctly, his name was Dave. He was very professional, efficient and courteous. The work as performed was excellently done, and he was finished and cleaned up by noon. As it happened, because the quote for the mechanical part of the job was, it seemed to me, quite high, I arranged to have another individual, Neil Welsand, do the venting and duct work for this job on the basis of a recommendation from a friend of mine. Neil's estimate and final bill was a small fraction of the estimate supplied by the mechanical contractor referred to above as provided by John Stephan. I mentioned to Mr. Stephan that I preferred to use Neil what was fine with him. Neil was also available to complete the venting and duct work that same afternoon so that the entire job was completed by 7 p.m. the same evening. What was particularly impressive was Neil's installation of the vent going through the basement's concrete sill. It was a very difficult job having to bore through concrete that, due to its age, was very hard! Clean up by both workers was excellent and everything is functioning fine. We are very pleased with the work of both of these individuals. My wife and I would certainly use them again should we have the need for these kind of services, and we would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone with a job requiring their skills.

John and his crew were a total pleasure to work with. We were in a hurry with winter coming and needed new wiring for our new heating system. John was quick to get back to me with what I considered a very fair estimate. He dealt with the power company to get our upgraded service and even told us how to save a little money by getting the trench for the underground wiring done by a neighbor with a backhoe. Somethingelse I liked about Duluth Electrical is that they use local union electrical workers and the quality and professionalism in their work showed, We had gotten bids from other contractors that were non-union and Duluth Electrical was the fairest!
Description of Work: upgrade from 100 amp service to 400 amp service, change from overhead wiring to underground wiring to house and outbuildings, wire new geo-thermal service(wiring for new heat pump and supplementary electric heater) and wire for off peak hot water

Response from DULUTH ELECTRICAL CONTRACTING INC
I am sorry to hear that the electrician was a little distant while working there. We try and accommodate our customers and work around their schedules to the best of our abilities, which means I have to pull electricians off other projects many times to make this happen. Sometimes when we do this it is hard for them to really concentrate on a new project when there are other projects not complete. This is in no way an excuse for what happened, just saying that our guys can get a little overwhelmed at times. Thank you for your feedback.

The installation and price were great. My only problem was that I agreed to be a 'drop in' job, because it was a short one. They originally told me that they would call me towards the end of the week and let me know when they'd be there the next week. It got to be about Wednesday of the week when they were supposed to show up, and I still hadn't heard from them. Once I called and got things rolling it was fine. I would still completely recommend them, but just be sure to get a firm date and don't be a 'drop in' unless you have no commitments in your daily routine.
Description of Work: They took out an old ceiling fan and then assembled and installed a new one that I had purchased at Home Depot. They also hauled away the old one, which was a nice touch.

Both my husband and I were very pleased with the overall service we received. Ryan could not locate the electrical problem at first, but once the problem returned, he was able to locate it and repair it. It wasn't an easy problem to solve, but he kept at it until the problem was found and fixed.
Description of Work: My husband and I had an electrical problem at our house that was not easy to solve. Our power would go out on the main floor of our house, but only in certain areas. We had Minnesota Power take a look first, but they said the problem was not with them. That meant we had to hire an electrical contractor to find the problem, but we had no idea who. I turned to Angie's List and found the name of Duluth Electrical Contracting, Inc. They had favorable reviews and we decided to give them a try. At the time we called them, we had only partial power to our main floor. They told us they would be out that day, and they were very prompt. The problem was (if you could call it that), was the power came back on before the contractor got to our house. The contractor's name was Ryan and he was super nice. He told us without the power being out like it was before, he had no way of locating the problem. Ryan explained the whole situation to us and he was very professional. We decided that as long as he was there, we may as well have him fix another issue we had with a switch plate upstairs of our house. He fixed it promptly but before he left, he gave his name and phone number to my husband. He told my husband that if the problem returned or we had any other issues, we could call him. Sure enough, a few hours later the problem returned. We called Ryan at the number he gave us and he was back at our house within the hour. It took some detective work by both Ryan and us, but he finally located the problem. Our house is over 100 years old and some of the wiring is difficult to work on. But Ryan took care of it all and explained to us what the problem had been. Ryan was very professional, prompt and courteous. We would certainly use this company again and would recommend them to friends and family.

Duluth Electrical Contracting made two visits. The first was to inspect the work to be done; the second to carry out that work. Communication between the two visits was by email and was prompt. There was a slight delay due to the contractor's scheduling difficulties but that cause me no inconvenience. The project was performed as promised.
Description of Work: I had a shorted outdoor electrical outlet. I had engaged another electrical contractor who did a temporary fix and, after promising to return to complete the project, disappeared. Duluth Electrical Contracting completed that project, upgraded other outdoor outlets, installed an outdoor light with an indoor switch, installed several outlets in the living room floor, and installed new thermostats. Overall I was very satisfied with the work and the price.
