We were trying to figure out what kind of lighting we wanted, and they came out and gave us a ton of options that we could go with. They came out a few times, with different options for us to look at. It looks nice. They were wonderful. They walked through a million times with us our different options for lighting.
Description of Work: They set us up with new under cabinet lighting in two different areas in our kitchen and they added a couple of switches.

Andy Cullen came out, on time, and was done in about 20 min. During his time he talked me through everything, our options and was able find a solution that accomplished what we needed. He was extremely nice, and professional. We didn't have a "go-to" electrician before, after our experience with Cullen, we do now. Next time we need anything, Cullen Electric will be the only call we make!
Description of Work: Cullen Electric came out and remedied an issue with the panel that came up in the inspection during the sale of the property.

They were on time and were very professional and very knowledgeable. It was amazing to us that they finished the job so quickly. We were also impressed by the fact that they stopped to get a part for the unit. We had tried to install it ourselves but failed to do so. We decided to call Cullen after we dropped the unit and broke a part of it. They were very, very good and very understanding. We will definately call them again when needed.
Description of Work: They installed a heater/exhaust fan/light unit in our bathroom. They were in and out in one hour. Very professional and reasonably priced.

Response from Cullen Electric Inc
Thank you for the feedback! Our pricing does not always fall into a person's budgetary requirements. Our estimated pricing is normally very competitive for the local market place we operate in. We feel excellent service, integrity, and a 16 year history of professional installations has a value that is worth paying for. Sometimes the adage "you get what you pay for" is a very real occurrence. We work hard to insure our caliber of service, integrity and professional installations are an excellent trade for the prices we estimate. So is our commitment to stand by that effort with a written Ten Year Warranty. Thanks again for your feedback and all the best to you on your project!

We couldn't be happier. We purchased a deal from Angie's list to correct a problem. Little did we know there was a potential disaster brewing. A wires loose in the box and was arcing inside burning the shielding on the wire. They fixed this immediately and discovered the previous owners had run aluminum wire to our furnace! We have copper throughout the house. They identified the issues and made recommendations. We negotiated a price for the repairs and the upgraded service. They made the repairs and completed the upgrade. A huge relief! Now our lights don't dim when the vacuum is run and we are up to date on code! I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs quality electrical work

Safe for now. Awaiting estimate on permanent repairs
Description of Work: We scheduled a deal from Angie's that same week 1/2 our house went dark. Cullen graciously worked us into the schedule. They quickly discovered the problem and made it safe. A potential fire was averted and they were able to identify several issues that need to be addressed. We are so grateful to the 2 electricians that "safed" our house! We will update all of the Angie community when our other fixes are complete. To this point A+++ from us.

We had an electrical panel fire Wednesday afternoon. I contacted Cullen through the list, after hours, after the fire truck had left and the power company had switched off our power. Adam responded by 9:45 PM. We set an appointment for the next morning. We met with him and our adjuster .. determined the work and agreed to have Cullen do it. Adam noticed other details and expanded the scope as far as the meter. The adjuster agreed on the spot (she was great, too). Friday he got the parts and permit. Saturday he showed up at the agreed upon time and finished the job in less time than he estimated. So we paid him and thanked him - and will now wait for the county to inspect Monday and tell us we can go home. I can't imagine a better or faster experience.

Andrew and his crew came out on one of the coldest days this year just after the first snow and ice storm through the area. He was reluctant to get started at first since there was snow and ice on the roof (where he would have to spend most of his time that day to replace the old service pole with a new 200 Amp service pole. He threw down some salt on the roof to melt the ice and began working that day. I was very impressed with this. The final result looks great. All the wires inside the panel are neatly organized and shaped to allow for easy identification in the future if needed. His price was half that of Cooper Electric and well under other competitive quotes received. I was very impressed with Andrew and his team and would hire them again in a heartbeat.

The job went approx as Cullen electric said, about 6 hours. They removed the old electrical and replaced with the new stuff. They checked each circuit to make sure it was operating correctly. Wiring looked clean and orderly. All circuits were marked with their function. The Hamilton County electrical inspector and the Cullen electric technition came the next week and reviewed the work and passed it without any problems. The job was professionally done and I would recommend them.

Response from Cullen Electric Inc
I am terribly sorry this happened to you but I have no record of ever scheduling an appointment with anyone with your name, or at your address. I also checked our call log and voicemail for calls related to appointments that I may have missed on 10/14 and there was nothing in our Voice Mail system or "missed call" log, that day, or the week this transpired. I am certain you left this review for the wrong Company. However, If we did inadvertently miss an appointment I am truly sorry this happened, as this is not the norm for my Company. We would still be happy to assist you with whatever electrical needs you may have. I would be honored if you would allow us to show you what great service we perform, consistently for hundreds of homeowners every year. We work hard to maintain our "Super Service Provider" Status on Angie's List and take seriously any short comings we may have encountered in that effort. Please call me at 513 227 4112. Ask for Andy Cullen, and I will personally make sure your job receives the same attention that all of our satisfied customers have received over the last 15 years! All the best to you on your project and my sincerest apologies, if this was, in fact an error on our part.

Lily was amazing. Never had a female electrician. We bought the special offer and while it cost more, Lily was extremely knowledgeable and corrected a problem others had worked on for almost two year. We know who to call if we need electrical work.

I really cannot say enough about the quality, service, and professionalism of Andy, Lily, and the rest of the team. They were arrived promptly to give me a quote, and gave me an extremely thorough explanation of what services I needed. They also separated out different options so I could pick and choose things easily. Their quote was far more detailed than any others I received. Because I have a 100+ year-old house with plaster walls, my project presented some challenges, and it required making a significant amount of holes in the walls to run the new wiring. Andy and Lily came back to my house more than once to figure out the best way to do it while minimizing damage to the walls. The crew showed up each day when they were scheduled, and kept my house extremely clean. They were a pleasure to be around and explained everything that was going on, and how much longer the work would take. I was also impressed with how much care they took to make the holes in the walls as small as possible, and to minimize the damage. The quality of the work and attention to detail far exceeded my expectations, and the new panel and system passed inspection with no issues. I now have a complete electrical upgrade without piping and molding running all over the interior and exterior of my house. I will use Cullen Electric for any and all of my electrical needs in the future, and I would highly recommend them to anyone.
Description of Work: I chose Cullen electric after receiving bids from several other companies. They performed a re-wire of almost my entire house, including a new panel, many new outlets, outdoor outlets and light fixture, without running any wire molding or conduit on the inside or outside of the house.

Andy came out to look at the job the same day I called and had Lily and Cee Cee come out a week later to do the job. It turns out that my bathroom wiring was old and needed to be brought up to code with GFIC. He pointed out that my light switch could be reached (unsafely) from the shower. Lily and CeeCee arrived promptly and took care of everything, though my house is old and a lot of the bathroom work involved getting through concrete which was the style of tile and walls for bathrooms years ago. They then installed my vintage recessed lighted medicine chest correctly and advised on correct wattage of bulbs to use. It turned out to be a fairly difficult job,but they did a good job and I feel safer with the new GFIC and knowing that my vintage medicine chest was installed safely and correctly.
Description of Work: Installed a vintage recessed lighted medicine chest after bringing bathroom wiring up to code with GFIC, adding a GFIC outlet and GFIC light switch. Also replaced old outlet over laundry tub with safer GFIC outlet.

These folks were fantastic! We really appreciate all the work they did for us. They were super up-front about costs, going so far as to break up our "wish list" into separate sections on the quote, so that we could prioritize what we needed to. They were professional, friendly, and efficient. Plus, the amount of work they did was astonishing, compared to the very small number of holes they made! They also helped us talk through/define some projects that were rather nebulous. (Like, how best to light the pantry [read: closet].) I would highly recommend them to anyone.
Description of Work: Increased our main box from 100 to 200 amp service; moved some outlets/switches, and re-wired others; added power to and installed a ceiling fan; swapped out some other light fixtures, etc. (We moved into this house 2 months ago, and amassed quite a list... Some things bigger than others.)
