It went well. After he replaced the switch, the electrician found that the fixture it turned on was also going bad. He was able to quote a price immediately for that new job and returned in less than an hour with the necessary parts. We are happy with a much better overhead light (LED instead of fluorescent) for a fair price.
Description of Work: We needed a broken light switch in our kitchen replaced.

I hired a guy and I was kinda disappointed. It was a $100 a service call, and a half hour job cost me $350 and I thought I was way overcharged. It was putting two lamps up over the garage. I didn't get the guy from Angie's List. The neighborhood has like a club and they recommended this guy. They said he was good. I checked up on a few of them to see what reviews they had and this one didn't have but just a couple of reviews, so I decided to go with him. Two young guys came out, two electricians, and it cost me $350 and the job was done in a half hour. I really wanted two boxes put in and then the lamps put up but they took the easy way, which was alright, but I didn't think it would cost $350 - maybe $250. They came out there which I thought was really good. A lot of people on the small jobs, they don't want these small jobs. These guys came right out the next day at 1:00 and did the job. That was the good part. But I didn't expect to pay $350 for two guys to put in lamps. Here's the thing; there was about five guys and they were all electricians. I think one's a plumber; I heard the plumber was good, though. There was five guys, so I don't know which one. I really don't know much about the company. I know one thing, I'm never gonna use them again. I had to pay them because it was $100 for coming out. If I didn't pay them the $100 then I'd have to pay another electrician to come out. They called, they came right on time. They were good that way. My son bought the lamps as a gift for me. Whoever did the job before, it probably was the homeowner, they used wood screws instead of metal screws, so I really needed two electrical boxes. My house is brick and my son was afraid he would ruin the brick, so he says you're gonna have to hire an electrician to do that part. I was shocked - $350 for thirty minutes. Really they didn't need two guys to come out here to do that. I told them what the job was gonna be, so maybe they were training the guy. They didn't want to change the boxes because it would have been too much work. My son put one up. I picked them because they had four or five stars. The guys weren't bad, but I will never go with them again because I thought that was too expensive. Next time I will try to get a few estimates. I mean, $350 for a half hour to put a few wires together? That's what they did; a couple of screws in each one and putting the wires together. They were fair, but I will never call them again. He did tell me the price right up front. They didn't lie to me. They said it's gonna be $350. They were nice young men; two young guys.
Description of Work: All they did was hook up the two lamps over the garage. That's all they did.

I scheduled the quote 2 days out for 1 PM. I came home just before 1 PM and waited 15-20 minutes before calling the company to see if someone was on the way. I was on hold for 30-40 minutes without ever speaking to a human. I finally emailed them at 1:55 to let them know that I needed to go back to work, they called me back with about 5 minutes. I only had one number in my phone for the company that I got off of Angie's List and they called me back at from that number so I know I didn't call the wrong number initially. Completely unprofessional and they made up my mind for me.

Description of Work: I have to tell my friends on Angie's list that these guys are old school - not new economy providers. I had a GFI issue at my home in Davidson and they had one of their "top guys" come out and it was a joke. He looked it over and started his "sales tactics" the minute he started looking it over. He started with all the worst case scenarios and said it would be a "flat fee" of $565 to just access the situation and said it probably would be fixed. When I expressed that that didn't sound reasonable - especially if one of his worst cases was discovered would cost more, he retracted and said it most likely would be fixed for that fee. When I asked him if he could just charge me an hourly rate - he said "they don't do that". When I explained that other providers on Angie's would do that - he started dissing Angie's. At that moment, I knew I was not going to work with these guys. The kicker was this. I had 2 lawn flags for my kids colleges in my garage that he noticed and said - "you know sir...we have to pay for our kids college to" Really? Is this how they do business - perhaps they have enough people that believe this BS approach - not me. I returned to Angie's and found MI electric. They were amazing and fixed the problem and even went to my rental and changed out a light in the dining room for me. Total cost ? $265 . These are the type of honest people with integrity that I like to do business with. I'm not trying to hurt these guys, they just need to change their business and scare tactics. I'm so grateful for Angie's list to give praise when appropriate and forward others so they do get duped by these guys here.

Called to get a quote to install two light fixtures and a switch to operate them. Promptly returned calls, quick to schedule me and very professional, but whoa, what a price tag. Wanted to charge me nearly $1000 just to hardwire two light fixtures and change a two gang box to three gang box. And I still had to pay $49 bucks for the estimate!

Response from Douthit Electrical
From:Chuck Douthit-owner of Douthit Electrical. We appreciate the Member allowing us to come into her home and consult with her on her electrical project. We are very grateful for our customers and respect their opinion. In this particular case to properly perform this job was going to be labor intensive therefore the large investment. It takes skilled hands to handle electricity. We are very careful when handling electricity in our customer's home. We receive a great number of positive reviews for the services we provide and are very disappointed about this negative review. I would have responded to this review immediately had I known that it had been posted. I came across this review while updating my password information.

An appointment was scheduled for the next morning after contacting the company for the job. The technician was extremely friendly, courteous, and professional (although he was about 30 minutes late arriving due to difficulty finding our house). The job was completed in about 45 minutes. I thought the price was a bit high for a 45-minute job, but the responsiveness and quality work would definitely lead me to contact the company for additional work in the future. (we had used this same company to install a sub-panel to expand our house's electrical service about 1.5 years ago)
Description of Work: Ran a dedicated circuit to an existing outlet to be used by a new treadmill.

I have been using their services for about nine years. This last time a bolt of lighting hit our home and fried a lot of our electrical circuits. They came out right away and assessed the damage. They gave me an estimate right then and there and got the work done. They are now trying to go more green and be more environmentally friendly.
Description of Work: They did a lot of significant wiring all throughout the house.
