worker came and found out the GFCI outlet was behind a shelving unit in the garage because the other one in the bathroom did not reset it--after one week of trying to fix the outage via circuit breaker box and GFCI outlet, I called them--took less than one hour to find the problem--visit was $125 plus $80 tech fee per hour--cost me $205, but at least I don't have to use a candle or flashlight to take a shower or put on my makeup anymore--now, I know where the GFCI outlet is

After thirteen years, all of the home detectors began to beep. Replacement of batteries failed to reset. Removing batteries and turning off power to system (recommended by manufacturer) also failed to reset indicators. New detectors had different wire harnesses than old system and required total rewiring. I called Desert Home Electric, and the company rep gave me a price and offered to do the work the same day. The electrician arrived on time , checked the extant wiring system for the alarms, and completed the rewiring quickly using the new detectors I had purchased. There have been no problems since the repair.

They were totally professional from beginning to end. I was given an estimate by Steve and the work was performed by Gabriel. On the day of service, Gabriel called because he ran into a problem on the earlier assignment and he wanted me to know he might be late for my 9-11 window. He still made it be 10:47, He explained exactly what he was going to be able to do and he did it! The work was perfect! I will definitely be hiring them to change out some light fixtures next month!

Initial quote was $350 for mounting a ceiling fan and replacing 2 exhaust fan motors - no duct work. Labor only. Called them back a day later to add replacing 2 more exhaust fan motors for a total of 4 exhaust fan motors. Did not give me a new estimate over the phone. I provided the ceiling fan and 4 exhaust fan motors with attached plastic fan. On the date of the job, 1 electrician spent 1.5 hours at my property to complete all items. Electrician performing the job did not mention the extra $225 for the job. 6 Days later $575 charge appeared on my credit card. Still no communication with me about changed price. I will be disputing the additional charge with my credit card company.

I’m sorry you did not have a good experience with our service. From my records we did quote you the additional cost. But I would like to avoid any debate over this. This was all done verbally over the phone so nothing in writing- which means no one wins a debate over what was said one way or the other. So what I want to do is give you a 15% rebate (A check for $86.25) plus a gift certificate for another $50.00. This will be mailed to you. I hope you try us out again. Thanks- Steve

They tried to sell me the most expensive intercom system without telling me about alternatives I could get that I could get. I put that on hold and then I asked for a quote on security cameras, they tried to sell me on 7 cameras to cover the whole house, again that would be to expensive. I began to drag my feet on doing the job because I wanted to learn more about these cameras,after I cancelled a couple of meetings the owner named Steve got on the phone and gave me a hard time about these cancellations, I told them I did not want their service after that. I am a 71 year old man who lacks knowledge of electrical work and I feel they were trying to take advantage me for those reasons. Thank You Gary Bauman

Response from DESERT HOME ELECTRIC INC
I think we have several misunderstandings going on here. Let me address each one. 1) "Most expensive intercom" we offer one intercom only. We do not offer "choices" we want to install something we can stand behind. What we offer is based on years of experience and a track record of good service. 2) "Sell you on 7 cameras" We do not sell cameras- just wiring for your cameras. You told me at the time that Best Buy was working with you- so maybe the problem with the cameras was with them? But it was definitely not with us. 3) "Gave me a hard time about cancelations" Our Company deals with cancelations and rescheduling all of the time. So it is not a big issue with us. My only memory of our conversation was that you were going to meet with a camera guy again- and I said "let's not schedule another trip until you have it finalized with camera locations." 4) "Take advantage of me" [Member Name Removed] we have done other jobs for you over the years. We love working with seniors. We have a great reputation all the way around. I have been doing this job for 45 years- 22 in Las Vegas. To make the comment we are trying to "take advantage" of you is just not fair- and hard to defend. All I can do is fall back on our excellent scores year after year w/ Angie's List. To wrap this up- I am sorry that things did not work out between us. I am sending you a $50.00 gift certificate that you can save for an emergency or give away to a friend or family member. I hope you use it. Thanks- Steve.

I spoke to Steve on the phone about my problem. He tried to solve the problem on the phone with some ideas to reset the circuit breaker. But, the circuit breaker needed replacement. Dave showed up at the agreed time. He took ten minutes to replace the breaker and check the circuit. Dave was professional and courteous. Will use again.

Excellent. Called first thing Monday morning and described our issue to Ryan. He said the owner (Steve) was on the phone and will call me back shortly. He called back within fifteen minutes and scheduled an electrician to be at our house between noon and 2 pm that day. Received a call from the electrician (Ociel) a little after noon saying he will be at our house in about 30 minutes. He arrived about 30 minutes later and I described the problem and the steps I had taken. Ociel fully understood the issue and proceeded to trouble shoot the entire circuit from one end of the house to the other. In about an hour, he was able to determine where the short was, made all necessary repairs and “button-up” all switches, plates and panels. Additionally, he was putting up with my questions and instructing me on what steps he was taking from beginning to end. Great service, professional electrician and a fair price.

On time. Reasonable rate. Professional. A handyman did an electrical receptacle 1-2 years ago; every time something gets plugged in, it'll trip. A couple of other problems like this. David from this company came out. Fixed them all. Yes, about an hour of work (including travel time about 2). $200 is well worth it for me. ($175 but I gave him gratuity.) Will never hire a handyman for electrical work again no matter how simple they are.

First, we were thrilled that Desert Home was able to do the estimate over the phone. Carlos was extremely professional. Work was done neatly, quickly, and properly. The two areas were cleaned so well you would never know anyone was here. We are extremely pleased and will definitely be calling again.

We really appreciate the nice write up. The comment about cleaning is really at the top of our list. I know there are a lot of good electricians out there, but no one protects a customer's home / property better than Desert Home Electric. It is extremely important that customers know they can trust someone to come into their home and take care of it. Thanks-Steve
