ceiling fans, electrician
  + 0 more
First of all, the company responded to my request and scheduled the work within 24 hours. Then, when I had to reschedule, they were patient and flexible. Once we agreed on a new date and time, Paul called (with plenty of notice) when he realized that he may be late. When he arrived, he removed his shoes at the front door. He reviewed my request and got right to work. He quickly assessed the situation, explained the source of failure, and offered solutions along with a verbal estimate. Suspicions about the company (not Withrow) that did the original electrical work on this house proved to be true. It is very clear now that they "cut some corners.? Those same electricians (not Withrow) were hired to do additional repairs on several other occasions. I won?t mention the name here, but will write a review on the company (not Withrow). Back to the Withrow review: Smoke / fire detectors were ordered through Withrow because they offer a one year warranty, and will have them back for the install. Light / ceiling fan fixtures will also be replaced ~ hopefully merging the two jobs so I don?t have to pay for additional service fees. Will update review after all work is complete.
Description of Work: I asked Withrow to explore to electrical issues for me: Why two ceiling fans has stopped working, and why the whole house fire/smoke alarm system had repeated failures.

Rich Withrow and his team did a fantastic job yesterday at our home. My husband was very impressed and that is hard to do. Since I am not an electrician I am not sure how to describe everything accurately, but I know it involved adding circuits or a new board or something, then piping the connection through the wall, along the house, under ground and to our hot tub. They got it all done in one day and you can hardly tell they were there which is fantastic. They cleaned up everything, did a great job burying the line and even remulched over the pipe. Our new hot tub now works great and we appreciate the prompt service Withrow gave us.
Description of Work: I don't know all of the official terms but they had to increase our number of switches to accomodate our new hot tub as well as pipe the connection from our basement out to the hot tub.

When Rick came out to give me an estimate on the job, I was pleased that he seemed to think things through and didn't seem overly optimistic. In fact, before he even gave me a quote, he met with a city engineer out at our place to discuss the details. I thought this was a good sign. He was on-time for the estimate and gave me plenty of details about how the work would go. On the day of, the workers were right on time. The electricity was out at the house for the whole day, so we went to work to let them do the job. But there was adequate communication. They finished up as they had expected, and had great communication with the city electricians, who showed up right on time to inspect and turn on service to the house. I was very pleased that we didn't wait around all day for that part to happen. Everything's been working well for a few weeks now, and we'll soon have them out for Part 2 of the electrical work project! I'm glad I am working with Withrow Electric.
Description of Work: We needed to have some residential electrical work done, including upgrading the service at our house and getting a new breaker panel installed. The electrical meter on the outside of the house had to be physically moved as well, and there were some complications.

They were very busy but they worked me in since I was out of power in my Living Room and main floor bath. Prompt and professional going right to the source of the problem. Also very affordable. I have some other electrical upgrades that I will have them perform.
Description of Work: Had a breaker that kept flipping and they had to trouble shoot and find source. Amazingly enough he could smell it and walked right to the problem outlet took it apart and it was black and burned...very scary. Probably saved our lives at the least our home.

See above. Clean us was excellent.
Description of Work: Services included providing wiring and outlets for a garage. Also increasing the power to new garage door openers that were malfunctioning due to low output. 2 ceiling fans installed and a switch on a wood-burning stove insert replaced. Owner called me back, showed up to survey my needs, provided me with an estimate. Workers arrived on schedule, explained their understanding of the desired service, answered my questions and then efficiently and effectively completed the job.

They charged alot and did sloppy work
Description of Work: They charged alot of money and the work they did, I feel was short cuts to save them money. They didn't explain how to handle my lighting after it was installed. I still have bulbs burn out too quickley even though the bulbs are practically brand new. I feel that it has to do with the way they installed my landscaping light. The cord to my landscaping lights is visiable on the ground,,,,, they did not conceal them into the ground during the installation.

Rich and his team were absolutely wonderful. I had a vision of what I wanted in lighting on my porch and Rich steered me towards the more affordable option. I really love what they did and it was so affordable. Rich is a well known, well liked guy and I definitely see why. I will definitely use him for all my electrical work.

When the supervisor/owner Rich called with the estimate, he quoted a charge for a $75 service call, as well as the part and labor for doing the work. I contacted him regarding "free estimates" (from their website: "We analyze the problem, then provide a free estimate so you will know what we will be doing, and how much it will cost, before we begin your project."). The email I received from Rich in response to my question: "If we had gone to your home and you said the fan does not work and ask how much to replace it,we could have quoted you a price.That would constitute a free estimate.When we have to actually take out our tools and WORK on the fan,that constitutes a service call.I hope this explanation clarifys everything." I then called to talk with Rich to see if he would discount the first visit and was sadly disappointed by the conversation and hostility. I have since cancelled the appointment to work on the fan.
Description of Work: I contacted the company for a estimate on fixing a fan in the attic. After having a hard time setting up a time for the evaluation, two very nice workmen climbed in the attic and assessed the fan. They took the information for the fan to give to their supervisor who would find a new motor and give me an estimate.
