I called him up to see if he could do an electrical job for me (run a new circuit outside). He came out the next day to look at it and give me a quote. He was a very nice guy and seemed knowledgeable. He told me that he would have to price out the parts and he would call me back with a quote. I never heard back from him for about a week. I called his house phone and emailed him with a message to please call me back with an estimate and with a timeframe to complete the work. His home phone and email address were both on his business card that he gave me but aparently he never checks them. I waited a few more days and tried to call his cellphone instead. He had no idea who I was until I fully explained the situation again to him. He again told me that he would work on a quote for me and call me back. I still have not heard back from him, nor do I care at this point. I just do not think it is professional the way he treated me and his communication skills are terrible! I would not recommend him to anyone because he is obviously unreliable if he cant return phone calls or emails to give me a simple quote, even after he told me that he could do the job. I was aparently not at the top of his priority list and he made that clear by not bothering to call me back or let me know anything.
Description of Work: He came out to look at an electrical job at my house and give me an estimate.

I called Steve early Monday morning. He had jury duty that day and said he would return my call later that evening. He returned my call as promised and we set up an appointment for first thing in the morning on Tuesday. He arrived promptly and began to examine the outlets in the kitchen. I explained that the dishwasher would run for about 20 minutes and then trip the circuit breaker, but that using an extension cord, the dishwasher worked successfully on another circuit. He pointed out that my extension cord did not have a ground wire so there was no way the dishwasher could have tripped the breaker even if it had a problem. In other words, the problem could still be in the dishwasher. Steve next examined the electrical panel. He removed the dishwasher's circuit breaker and discovered that it was the wrong brand of breaker for that panel. He also pointed out evidence of overheating where the breaker connected to the panel. He now felt certain it was the breaker and not the dishwasher. He drove to the store, purchased a new breaker, and installed it in the panel. Our problem was solved. Steve was kind and friendly, he let me accompany him while he worked and he answered my questions regarding surge protection. I will certainly use him again and highly recommend him to others.
Description of Work: After eight years of reliable service, our dishwasher started tripping the circuit breaker during the wash cycle. We hired Steve Baldwin to diagnose the problem. Steve asked thoughtful questions, checked the dishwasher circuit, found an improper breaker in the panel, pointed out evidence of overheating where the breaker joined the panel, purchased and replaced the breaker with a new breaker made for the panel.

Fantastic experience. Would highly recommend.
Description of Work: We own a house that was built in the 1950's. It was our understanding that we needed a new electrical box, and had saved $3500 to cover the cost. We called Steve, who is a former Buncombe County building inspector, and were very surprised. We did not need a new electrical box, but we did need a little bit of work done to get us safe and functioning well. Steve was able to reuse some of our existing material and had to make some purchases. He saved all of his receipts and returned all material not used. Our bill- $350, including material. Calling Steve Baldwin was the best decision we've made with this house. We are very happy and have recommended him to friends.

I called Steven's phone and left a message about a needed electrical repair in an apartment we own. He got back to me in 15 minutes. We were able to meet 2 hours later that same day. Since I had to meet him at the apartment to let him in, we met there. He was there waiting when I arrived at the appointed time. He diagnosed the problem with the tenants ceiling fan within a few minutes. There was a chip in the light switch that had gone bad, he said it might be possible to research the ceiling fan manufactor and order the bad chip but it wasn't something available locally. Since the tenant was without light in her living room he suggesting replacing the ceiling fan out right. It would get the light working quicker than researching and then waiting for a part to be shipped. And I could get a new ceiling fan with a light for less than $50. I went to the nearested home center and picked out the new ceiling fan. I was back in 15 minutes. And about 30 minutes after that, the ceiling fan was in and working. So I was able to solve the renters problem while she was at work, the same day she told me about it. I had used Steve Baldwin for other electrical work around my house before, and was always impressed with his quick response, quality work, and resonable price. It seems hard sometimes to find people that do reliable work at a resonable cost, but I can recommend Steven D. Baldwin Electrical Contractor without reservations.
Description of Work: Replaced a defective ceiling fan in a rental unit we own.
