Anthony and the team at Alpha Contracting did a great job! They came out multiple times to answer questions and helped guide us in regards to lighting and tile. Anthony did an amazing job on the backsplash and made sure we were happy every step of the way. The under cabinet lighting works great and all the wires were expertly hidden. They started on time and finished when promised. They were very clean and did fantastic work.

Well he finally got the knot, and it worked out pretty good. An extra twenty dollars, because I reached the limit, and they still had to go to the house. I couldn't compare them, never had electricians before. The first time we scheduled something, they stood me up, and didn't call, so I called them. I had to reschedule for two weeks later. The second time they did show up, and started working on the smaller project, the larger project ended up using all of the money. Communications just sucked. Contractor's generally sucked. It seemed a little expensive. He was very nice. Communication, and personal things, I didn't like the way he talked about my house. He did his job great, and he had some other things in there, and I'm like dude not your business. Time I called them to it got done, a month, the actual hours, eight hours. They spilt some trash, that I had to vacuum.

It didn't go well. The parts they brought in were defective. It wasn't their fault, it was the generators fault. It took over 2 months to get it completely installed. It should have only taken a couple days. The prices was fair.

Response from Alpha Contracting
Thank you for the review. It is our policy to have one guy footing the ladder for safety when working on two story lights. When we spoke on the phone we asked you the height of the light. You said it was one story. When Chris arrived it was two stories high. Sorry we were not able to help you on this project.

Work went very well and the lighting in the kitchen is much improved. I would hire again. He was professional and easy to work with. Anthony only had 3 lights with him, but his brother-in-law, who was helping him, got a 4th. I was not charged for that trip. The only hiccup was that he had told me, by email, he was coming at 9 am, and then the night before he switched the time to later in the day that was less convenient for me. After I said I was counting on 9 am, we were able to agree to a specific time later that day which worked for me as well. He apologized for his mixup.
Description of Work: I took advantage of a Big Deal and had them put in 4 can lights in my (formerly) dark kitchen. (The deal: $89.00 for each new 6-inch recessed light; Installation.) I originally wanted only 2 lights, but when Anthony saw my kitchen, he suggested 4 lights, and I'm glad he did. My kitchen is much brighter now.

My rating is based solely on lack of responsiveness. I paid for what I will call a consultation. I haven't heard from anyone since early April. Towards the end of May, I e-mailed stating that they must be too busy and to please just refund my $$. No response. I rated low on professionalism but to me paying for a service up front and after 3 months, haven't received my service, nor a refund. First disappointing experience with Angie's List.

Response from Alpha Contracting
I apologize for your bad experience. I contacted all customers after their purchase via message center in Angie's List. During that time frame, they were switching over to a new system and alot of my company's customers through Angie's List lost communication with us because I was unable to see their messages. You can confirm this was an issue with them. I am not physically able to issue you a refund because the money was paid to Angie's List. If you contact them, they can issue one, hopefully you have already received it by now. If you haven't please give me a call and I will help you expedite that. Again, I apologize.

He was okay. It was a big deal purchase. The one guy came out, he did what he die and that was the way it was. He has not burned the house down so I suppose he is alright. It took him a while to get here. It took him a while to schedule it. He knew what he was doing.

I purchased a coupon on Angies List for Alpha Contracting that they did not honor. I read the fine print on the ad several times before purchasing and even called into Angie's List to purchase it and get confirmation from them first that it was valid. Once I called Alpha to schedule an appointment, they would not honor it and provided VERY POOR customer service. I wouldn't consider using them again even if it was free.

Needed a bunch of electrical work done in a home that I'm renovating. Found this Big Deal and thought I'd be able to make good use of it. Company promptly followed up on my purchase. I discussed a few things that needed to be done and was provided estimates significantly higher than quotes I already had in hand from other licensed electricians. Ultimately couldn't agree on any work to be done at a reasonable price - even accounting for the Big Deal discount. I requested and received a refund from Angie's List. I'm sure they're capable and may be a good match for someone else - just couldn't find a good match for my needs. I've since had the work done by another licensed electrician at a much better price.

Installation was relatively quick and Chris (electrician) was very polite/professional. I would caution anyone that purchases their deals via angie's list vs. an non-angie's list quote, beware of angie's list limitations/restrictions as it could cost you more than you budget. In the deal, I had to supply the material/parts and wiring so as not to get charged any additional fees.
