They kept me updated on the status of the time the electrician would get here -- i was the second job for him, the first job ran long, they called me with an update. Didn't rate on price because I used a Big Deal, so have no way of comparing. At a minimum I got my money's worth.

It worked out well. He fixed everything quickly. He were prompt. He took a description for more work and called me with the estimate. He said the flood lights lines weren’t grated for the outside. I’m going to get another estimate. I’m not sure if I would use them again.

ONot well. Per telephone conversation with company representative, they would only send electrician out to complete a job, not determine my need. I informed them I didn't know what my problem would entail, so I didn't want to commit to putting in a circuit box if I didn't need one. Without looking at my home, the rep assured me of my needs over the phone. That's pretty miraculous. She informed me I would need to purchase additional fixtures before I knew they would be appropriate, or even if a fixture could be located in the area I wanted. If the fixtures wouldn't work, I would need to return them. No thank you. I deal with folks face to face - not with a telephone swami. I would like the money I spent on the Angies List coupon returned to me.

Response from Alpha Contracting
Hello, I apologize for the inconvinience. Based on our experience we can offer solutions based on information that is provided to us over the phone or email. We also provide pricing upfront and in advance. We value everyones time so we try to provide as much information before coming to your home. Since you purchaed the deal we were under the impression you wanted the work to be completed. If you wanted to schedule just an estimate we could have done that. But then we would have had to charge an additional trip charge to come out and take a look. We setup installation appointment and go over scope of work when onsite and agree on cost of work before any work begins. Please contact Angie's list for your refund. I am sincerely sorry for any misunderstanding. Thank you for your initial purchase.

Overall. I was not pleased. I tried alpha due to an Angie's list best deal ad. I thought if they did a good job installing my bedroom ceiling fan, then I would ask them to install a couple of other light fixtures. First, the deal mis-represented the cost. In addition to the $39 for $140 worth of work, I had to pay $45 for travel. These two costs combined meant I would spend $85 dollars for a "deal" which is the price I usually pay with other electricians. Second, I had difficulties scheduling the appointment. They did not respond to my inquiry through Angie's for several days and then I had to follow up. Once I did reach them, they said it would be 6 weeks before they could pencil me in or I could be on standby for this Friday. I opted to go standby and then book the 6 week out appointment as back up. I waited all day on Friday to hear from them and finally called them to get a status update at 515. They forgot my service. We rescheduled for. On day, which they had to cancel due to personal emergency, then rescheduled again for Saturday. I finally got my fan installed and now it doesn't work. I would have thought it would have been tested prior to leaving. They claim it was tested but it was not done so in front of me. I did get them to estimate my other work and it came on over $500 more than my other bids from more reliable electricians. Overall, I will not use alpha again

Response from Alpha Contracting
Hi, I apologize for any issues you are having. The fan was tested and was working properly when our electrician left. We ALWAYS test our installations for proper operations once the work is completed. That is our standard. We never just install something and assume it works. I spend some time on the phone discussing what may be wrong, I even offered to come back and take a look. I also followed up with a phone call and left you a voice mail to see if the problem was resolved but I never heard back from you. Moreover, the $45 trip charge is a standard fee and every company has one. Some of them include it in the labor rate or have a separate line item for it like myself. I like to separate it so my customers can see what I am charging, the big deal was for electrical services and the trip fee was not included. I do not try to mis represent the cost of anything. Please call me if you still need our help. Thank you !

The appointment was scheduled for 8 a.m. and nobody came. I called at 8:30 a.m. and 9 a.m. and got an answering machine. I asked for a return call and left a number, but after 24 hours I had received no call and canceled the deal. I learned several days later that there had been a death in the technician's family that prevented him from making the scheduled appointment. I was told earlier this week that an email explaining the situation had been sent in advance of the scheduled appointment, but I did not receive it.

They provided recessed lights and then wired for sconce light since when I scheduled I thought we could put in a recessed light there too, but it was easier and more practical to install a sconce light at top of stairs instead. They didn't have the sconce with them since we weren't planning that, but wired everything so my husband could finish the job. Very nice and professional.
Description of Work: Installed recessed lighting in basement. Also installed sconce light on stairs.

I purchased the "big deal," but it didn't really seem to save much in the long run -- the total cost ended up being about the same as another estimate I had done a couple of weeks earlier. The work was professional, on time, and they were creative about preventing as much drywall damage as possible in running wires from an existing outlet to the new location.

Chris called prior to arrival, was very professional, and did a very good job. Totally satisfied.
Description of Work: Replaced an old-style fluorescent ballast with a new-style electronic ballast in my garage. This is a 10-foot ceiling, with very 29-year old 96 inch fluorescent tubes. Also had a Phase-Coupler installed across the 208V AC my main breaker power panel. This was done to allow my X10 and other Home Automation products to better communicate throughout my home.
