Went very smoothly. The team arrived when expected and kept me fully informed as the job progressed, warned me before power was turned off, and labelled the new panel. The electrical inspector was very pleased and said it was quality work.

Paul came out to assess the work that needed to be complete. four weeks plus have passed and we still did not receive a formal estimate from him, or call back from him or his office despite 2-3 attempts to make contact. Incredibly inefficient for my family and I and complete lack of respect for the customer.

Response from Valentine Electric Inc.
[Member Name Removed], I'm not sure what to say but to apologize. I have tore through my office and my truck and had my entire office look for paper work from your estimate. We could not find a thing. I do see you on my estimate calendar and it shows I went to your house, but I cannot find anything nor do I remember what we looked at. I pride myself on being to my estimates on time and get back to the customer immediately. Some how you slipped through the cracks. This is not how we do business and all I can do is apologize. We also do NOT have a phone record or E-mail from you asking for the estimate if we did I would have gotten back to you. I'm sorry for any inconvenience this has caused you. If you want to give us a second chance just call my office and I will run out again and provide that free estimate I should have in the beginning. Thanks Paul

I am extremely pleased with the outside electrical outlet that was installed by the Valentine Electrical electricians. I called Valentine Electrical midday yesterday to inquire when would be the earliest I could have an outside electrical outlet installed. After a very brief hold, the receptionist replied, if I were available later in the afternoon, the electrical outlet could be installed. I was thrilled, she quoted me a price for the installation, which was reasonable and she scheduled the installation. An hour and a half after speaking with the receptionist, two electricians (Alberto and Frankie) arrived in a very impressive and attractive Company vehicle, which immediately was a sign of professionalism. They assessed what I wanted done, and in a relatively short time the outlet was installed. The outlet installation exceeds my expectations, Alberto and Franky are friendly, knowledgeable and clearly, two very skilled and very professional electricians. The receptionist I initially spoke with was friendly, helpful, informative and professional. I will not hesitate to use or recommend Valentine Electrical to family, friends or colleagues. I have attached three photos: One inside and two outside Maxwell Riggsbee

Response from Valentine Electric Inc.
Hi [Member Name Removed], We tried searching your name and address in all of our programs and could not find any appointments made or cancelled, nor could we find any documentation concerning a follow-up call. Additionally, you are the first customer in recent memory who has made this complaint, so we know for sure there is no pattern of this happening here. We are sorry it there was any misunderstanding or mistake on our end. Our practice is to always maintain communications with our clients and in the extremely rare case that we cancel our estimates (which only happened once this year), immediately notify the customer and reschedule at the earliest available date. We will continue to look into what happened here, and urge you to contact us again and speak with Billy Valentine who is offering to personally handle your project. Best of luck.

I am not upset because I got more reasonable quotes from more attentive electricians who gave better prices for equal or better service and product. Not happy about trying to give someone business and they flat out ignore you. Thanks.
Description of Work: Paul came over and worked with me on what I wanted done. send the estimate over in a couple days. But when i had a question concerning upgrading the subpanel from a 60amp to a 100amp, he said he would call me back and give me an updated quote. Never heard back from him even after calling one more time. I think he is too busy for my business but i figure a call to give me an updated price was the minimum i could expect.

Description of Work: AC serviceman suggested moving thermostat, which was right over the vent, and registering erractically. Mr. Valentine came, assessed the situation, offered us an estimate and was very professional in his manner. Two of his workers came on the day and time promised and did a terrific job, without leaving holes in our walls.

The gentlemen came by. They did a very good job. They completed the job acceptably. I was a little taken back by the price, but they said the parts were very expensive. I believe them and they checked everything out and they said if I had any problems, they would come back and take care of it. They did everything correctly. We have had a couple of incidents where the outside sensor lights didn't come on. It seemed to be not something that had anything to do with the installation, but perhaps the item itself may not always be detecting. I would say 95% of the time it picks up moving objects. Any person or any item that's moving, the sensor light will go on. We haven't yet called them in case we had a possible problem. So, right now, we are fine with everything that has been done. The price was a little higher than I expected. They warned us up front that they used these LED sensor lights, which supposedly last a lot longer than your routine sensor lights. I believe them. They are expensive, but hopefully they will last. For a electrician company, not out of bounds. The work quality was good. They came when they were scheduled.
Description of Work: They replaced outside sensor lighting on our property. There was a couple of smaller repairs they did. They fixed an outdoor electric socket and they gave us a recommendation. We had a couple of defected lamps and they gave us a name of a company, which we have since used and have successfully had our 2 lamps repaired. So, they gave us that good information. We had temporary loss power to one section of our house and they were able to correct that problem.

No work was done. Unfortunately the telephone scheduler is either inexperienced or incompetent. She told me she would let me know when she had a crew available, probably at the end of the week (I called on a Tuesday). I thought it was odd that she was so vague and indefinite. She could have scheduled me for the following week and that would have given me the option of deciding whether I wanted to wait or go elsewhere. In all fairness, Valentine did work for me once before and for another family member to our complete satisfaction, but this person who stands between the customer and the workers is creating poor public relations for the company. She does not present a positive persona. You don't leave customers hanging.

Response from Valentine Electric Inc.
We are quite disappointed by this review. Over the past several weeks, we have been swamped with work; from small service calls to large commercial work. Our practice with regard to the smaller 'non-emergency' service calls has been to place the customer on our job waiting list so we can assign it to one of our electricians when they finish their scheduled work for the day. This way, the work is done sooner for the customer, as we have had three week lead times during this summer. Unfortunately, we cannot give an exact day when we do it this way as it is impossible to predict how long some jobs take, but we explain to our customers we will be contacting them within the week to send our guys out. We always give the option to be placed on the calendar instead but it typically is a week or two out due to other jobs already on the calendar. In this case, we decided it would be better for the customer to have her on the job waiting list as it would be done fast. A couple of days after the original call, we had a crew available and this customer was next on our list. We called the customer to let her know we had a crew available and were told she had it taken care of. This was no longer than a week after the original call. This is an unfortunate situation as we were happy to serve this customer and her family, and value them as customers. We are very fair here at Valentine Electric, and we would have made it work had we known this work was more urgent. We have journeymen electricians often volunteering to work overtime on Saturdays to keep customers like this one happy. We hope this review does not deter any one from hiring us as their electrical contractor. We are an honest, hard working and family owned business, and this is why we have earned such high honors from Angie's List (top rated contractor for 6 years). Let us prove to you why we earned our reputation.

Such a pleasure to work with. They scheduled my appointment the next day, called me that morning to confirm time of arrival. Two electricians came out and were courteous, efficient, completed the work beautifully and cleaned up afterwards as well. I'd definitely use them again.

tThe men came the day after I called, as promised. They were prompt, polite, and professional in every way. We had been having a recurring problem for months. Our gfi 's in 2 locations would frequently stop working for a period of weeks, and then mysteriously work again. I had other electricians replace the gfi's but the problem came back. Today the men who came finally diagnosed the problem. They traced the line and discovered it went thru an outdoor outlet that had a serious defect. It could have been dangerous. The problem was the the same in 2 places in our house. They replaced the defective outlets with appropriate outdoor outlets that also had gfi's. I was completely satisfied, and recommend this company strongly.

From start to end, of the whole process, (phone call, return calls, visit to assess the work, mailing of estimate, follow up answers to questions, scheduling work, contact before arrival, prompt ontime arrival to work, work itself, explanation of work, professionalism of EVERYONE involved [great team effort]) I am 100% satisfied with Valentine Electric. They are personal and professional at the same time. Everyone cares. We don't have a lot of money to spend, but every penny that was spent here was spent well. I will always go to Valentine for any and all future electric work. I also asked them to give me an estimate on a whole house generator. They did. It is an expensive upgrade, and when the kids get out of college, this might be do-able. It will increase the value of the home, it's just a stretch for the budget now. But you can be assured, when the time comes, I will be calling Valentine Electric.
