Description of Work: Jason replaced a bad switch in master bath and added 2 GFI's in kitchen to meet code. I didn't know the latter was an issue and since I'm planning on selling this summer, I'm grateful he brought this to my attention. He had to make a special trip to Lowe's to get the replaced items in almond color. I purchased a deal for $125. for one hour of labor and all work was performed within that time frame. The only add'l cost was for the custom color parts he purchased.

Description of Work: Poor communication within this company became an issue. However, when given the chance to provide a remedy, the company came through with excellent customer service. | |I purchased an hour of time to begin electrical work on a kitchen renovation, which I noted in the order request. The electrician who arrived was not aware of the request, and advised us that working piecemeal would become very expensive. He suggested that we get a quote for the whole job for a better rate, and offered to use his hour with us taking notes and photos, from which his office would create a quote by the next day. We agreed, but the quote never came. | |I inquired with the office. The rep answered that the deal we bought was not applicable for creating a quote, and wished us good luck on the project. That was disappointing--$125 for a good luck wish! I explained briefly (to no response), and then a second time in great detail, exactly how the service call had gone. I asked the office to suggest a remedy. The rep apologized and offered to send another electrician out to satisfy the terms of the deal--an hour's worth of small electrical work. | |The second electrician was able to work on a couple small projects that were less urgent than the kitchen, but which satisfied the 1-hour deal. | |I was satisfied with the electrical work and happy that the company offered a "do-over." I rated them a C on responsiveness because it took quite a bit of effort to engage the company rep. I answered "no" to hiring them again because I found a local master electrician (Patriot's) who both quoted and then finished the kitchen renovation work before Gowdy even responded to my emails.

Response from Gowdy Electric
I'm sorry you feel this way but your statement is untrue. We spent over an hour troubleshooting your issues that your requested us to look at. We advised you that you had a defective fixture that needed to be replaced and you did not choose to have one installed at the time of service. We have to charge for troubleshooting in order find problems. Sometimes those problems consist of additional time to correct which you choose not to do.
