Scheduled an appointment for an estimate and was given a window of 12-2PM. I was told I'd receive a call 30 minutes before arrival. Around 3:30PM, I get a text message that the appointment cannot be kept and I would have to call back to reschedule. Don't waste your time with companies that don't value your time and money.

Fabulous! On time, easy to work with, accommodating, low-pressure, neat, simple and fast scheduling by a human with a fast detailed confirmation by text. A no-stress transaction all around and concluded with a sleek electronic receipt. Fabian and Napoleon were professional-grade and friendly, appropriate humor to reassure me (mine was time-sensitive assignment). Thank you!!!

Description of Work: Appointment for the estimate was set between 8am-9am. “Ben” from the company called at 9:50 saying they would be at house for 10:20. When asked why they would be late, he offered no explanation or apology. Here’s a tip, if you can’t show up on time for the estimate, you probably won’t get the job.

Response from Duffy Electric
I called the home owner with the purpose of clarifying our review and to see if there was anyway we can make things right. I just spoke to the home owner about this job as I was a little taken back by the review. He said he would not have given such a low score as he was pleased with the work himself. He said it must have been his wife who made the review. The situation was that the back yard is full of rocks and roots.(we found that out after we started to dig) This prevented a straight line and neat trench. It made the install pretty difficult for us. Thus we had to hand dig across the back yard as there was no other way to go.(That was the messand we never raked and spread seed down when we were done as splinklers were to be installed after the Generator work). Someone recommended a potential employee to me and it was his first and last day with Duffy Electric at that job. (That could have been who and where the dirt in the house came from either way it needed to be cleaned before we left.) We now use Drop clothes, booties or remove our shoes if entering a customers home as needed as a usual work practice. I do understand the complaint and I am willing to do something to make up for the damage done. I never want to leave a customer who would not want to hire me again unless they are themselves impossible to work for. This is not that type of situation.

Description of Work: Came in for a evaluation and measurement, did not catch the fact that the range hood vent was incorrect. Came to install and then realized the a convertor part was missing (meanwhile uninstalled the old one, another snafu). Came back a third time to install but patched up the job. No finesse also could not make the existing exhaust fan work as it was supposed to. (came back a 4th time to disconnect the exhaust fan but lets not get into that....)

I think I said enough. I would not use him again - that's for sure.
Description of Work: I had my circuit breaker box replaced. I also had two lines run down to my garage. Additionally, I had a large fixture hung. I found the guys pleasant and professional. The work was done well but after they left I found that they had damaged a large cabinet I had in my garage. It was on wheels and when they moved it one wheel came off. I never even called him back because I didn't want to bother him and I thought the handyman was coming back. The handyman got extremely busy and hasn't come back yet. When I called it was admittedly after a time but they denied it. I now have to call someone and at my expense have it fixed. I was very grateful that they labelled some of the breakers. They didn't do all of them however. I found out from another electrician that they have to label them by law. My gratefulness changed because they did not label all of them. I recently had a breaker trip and I turned off overload and went to switch breaker on. The electricity did not go back on. The breaker that tripped seemed like something was wrong - it didn't click like the other breakers. I called Brian and after several messages he called back and said that it can't be the breaker. I said that I believed it was. He said that if he comes back and it's not the breaker I will have to pay the service charge - $175 first hour and $125 thereafter. I said that I might want to get other estimates if it's something else. He accused me of nickel and diming and not wanting to pay his fee. I said I would want other estimates. It seems that for him to honor the 1 year warranty I would have to agree to use him for any other work that was needed. That's not fair. He then said that if he comes back we are through - he won't come ever again. I said that the warranty isn't up until May 8, 2014. He accused me of being unappreciative. How unprofessional is that! I will have to have the breaker replaced by another electrician as I can see that he's not honoring the warranty. He's all about money - won't come back if he's not making money on it. I also feel that there may be some prejudicial innuendos in his dialogue. Live and learn!

It was great. The price was reasonable for the work he did. He was reliable and did a great job. I have not got him back to fix any of his work. He made suggestions because it was a difficult installation since the porch is more enclosed compared to outside of the building. He needs to do special adaptation to accommodate the wiring and it requires lot of work to do that. I am happy with his work. He came prepared with all of his equipment with him.
Description of Work: Duffy Electric installed the light fixture on the inside and outside of my porch.

The owner came out. There was outlet in the basement that needed to be changed over. Then it was discovered that everything needed to be re-wired. They quoted one price originally. When they got into it, they quoted a different price. If they know they are going to have to do the entire home, they should give a complete estimate. They shouldn't charge you separately for each floor. They had to put some tubing on the side of my house. I would have preferred to have it on a less exposed side. One person was more descriptive than the other. There is one individual who is the lead worker. He was phenomenal. He tells you straight-up what needs to be done. They are nice and respectful, but they are messy. They tried to clean up a little bit and do the best they could. There was an unfinished side of my basement. There were some holes that had to be cut and they just left them. I think they were to busy to pay attention to it. If anyone uses them, I would recommend taking a look at everything and making sure that the work is done. I'm not going to complain about the quality because they did do a descent job with the re-wiring. There was more than one occasion that I was expecting them at 8 am and they didn't call. They only called once and I had to call the other times.
Description of Work: I have used Duffy Installation. Initially, they were going to change some electrical outlets in the home. Later, they found out that the house wasn't grounded properly and they did a complete rewiring of the home.

Response from Duffy Electric
Originally this customer asked me over the phone how much it would be to change every outlet in her home as they only have 2 pin outlets and she can't plug in her 3 pin plugs into her 2 pin outlets. That was a set price per outlet and she agreed to the price before any work started. Our electricians started removing the existing 2 pin outlets to discover there was no ground (needed for 3 pin) in any of her wiring throughout the whole house which defeated her original job plans. She then asked for a price to rewire the house to add grounding. She agreed to the price and then we did the job. Regarding the piping, we followed existing routes used for the air conditioning that she just had put in as this was the only route from the ground to the attic. She also agreed to this procedure before we went ahead. I sat with her for an hour going over everything we were going to do incuding pricing before any work was ever started. She never once complained or voiced that she was unhappy. Additionally there were 4 separate invoices for this job from February to April because she added work to the job.
