Alex was very punctual and friendly. He quickly found the source of the issue regarding my camera doorbell and wiring. Work was completed quickly and the estimate was on point. I would definitely recommend PEM and would use the in the future. Great job!

I bought the deal and when I called the service provider, I was told that things that I needed get done were not covered (installing a new electrical outlet for already installed garbage disposal, new exhaust fan in the bath) - I called them again in December - they mentioned they cannot refund money but can charge extra for the services I needed - they visited my house, suggested township permissions requirements and additional charges for the same - I agreed to proceed, haven't heard back since!
Description of Work: None - paid for the service but nothing was done

The junction box went well--with the exception of having to make two cuts in the drywall to get to the right spot for the switch. The outlet, however, was another job entirely. We told them where we wanted it hooked in, but the apprentice doing the work didn't follow those directions. No big deal. The line for the outlet was in the basement, so cosmetically, who cares. The problem arose two weeks later when we needed heat in the room. This room is on it's one zone, and the heat didn't come on. We replaced the thermostat thinking it was bad. Nope. No heat in that room only. Called the guy who installed the furnace. He came out. The line to the furnace had been clipped when the outlet was installed. In order to run a new line, we will need to tear down the wall. So we saved some money by taking the 4 hours of electrical work deal, but then ended up spending A LOT more to fix what they broke. I would NEVER hire again.
Description of Work: We needed a junction box for a ceiling fan hardwired in and an outlet added to another part of the room.

I originally did not rate this company well due to what I considered poor work. In all fairness they did come back out and correct what I had issues with and I also received a refund for the extra money paid for supplies. I'm pleased that they corrected the problem.

Mike and John explained everything step by step. They expertly assessed our situation and fixed it where another electrician was not able to. They even pointed out a situation in our basement that we were unaware that was unsafe and fixed it on our behalf. They were honest in that the job did not take the amount of time we purchased from the Angies List deal of the day and documented with their office manager, Alex, that we have "extra hours" left over that we can re-activate in the future. This team worked fast, knew how to diagnose and fix our issue quickly and we would most definitely refer them to others and use them in the future. If we were not a non profit organization we would have tipped them for the time and care they took with us (sorry guys)! Thank you Mike, John and Ales for a job(s) well done!
Description of Work: DoingRightByRescues is a nonprofit organization providing dog training to those who have adopted rescued dogs. There are multiple lights trailing the walkway area we use to train dogs. This lighting system was on motion lights and we wanted them changed to enable us to switch them on and off from the inside of our facility. We also needed two outdoor lights checked in our training facility.

They were not very good in contacting, communicating and rescheduling. The technician was on time, when he finally showed up, after rescheduling and no information. They have an office manager who seems totally overwhelmed with their schedule..... They told me what was able in 8 hours and the technician was done after 6. One fixture was damaged/scratched.

Everything went great. They had to come back to adjust the direction of the cameras and lights and did so at no charge (I told them before they left that adjustments may be needed, and they agreed). They helped explain the best option for camera wiring, as well as suggestions for types of lights.
Description of Work: I hired them to install security cameras and install the hard wired CAT5e cables (I activated the system and cameras). They did a wonderful job, didn't cause any damage, and hid the wires perfectly. Once, here, I also asked them to install some security lighting and motion lights (replacing existing broken ones).

Generally it went well with one or two small exceptions. Troubleshooting the new range hood proved somewhat futile as the problem turned out to be an issue with the bulbs. Should have interrogated the manufacturer more that I did before bringing in an electrician. But at least I got some peace of mind that it wasn't a short. The electrician identified a few potential problem (that turned out to be false - but having proposed them he also was able to determine that his initial concern was wrong). So finally got the electrician to call the manufacturer's technical support line (which he had originally rejected) and after a brief discussion identified the issue with the bulbs. Note: Manufacturer did not indicate restriction on LED bulbs in the installation details - so boo on Broan. The other problem was a a replaced outlet that did not work properly. The original (old) outlet had one of the receptacles connected to a wall switch, but the replacement was not. However after notifying them of the problem - the owner came that afternoon to correct the wiring. Admittedly I probably should have told the original technician about the switched receptacle, but I assumed that he would have wired the replacement as the original had been. The owner agreed and apologized for the error. So despite the problem - it was corrected quickly and with an apology.
Description of Work: One comment on buying a service by the hour - is that you really don't know how much work can be done within the time that you buy, I had a porch light that needed replacing, a range hood that needed to have some troubleshooting on the lights, and numerous outlets to be replaced (some old, some upgraded to include USB charging ports or other features) And even with all of that I still only filled three of the four hours that I purchased. Not the fault of the contractor of course, but perhaps should be a way for better planning on this kind of "deal" - as I could have had another project ready.
