When electrician came out I explained that I needed to somehow get lighting into some very dark display shelves and didn't want to spend a lot of money wiring the shelves. He came up with some creative ways to redirect the ceiling lights to get lots of light into the shelves. He was very professional, creative and sensitive to my budget.

The estimate was a breeze, they had a solution for what I need. We have an older house so I was worried about plaster repair and getting wires ran through the kitchen but they identified a solution which involved a wireless switch. No plaster repair was necessary and now we have can lights in our kitchen over our sink and work/prep counter. Both of these areas were using wall-mount spot lights from IKEA. The new lights look much better. The wireless switch for the 3 way switch in the stairway ended up not working consistently so they promptly came out and hard wired the switches. Everything works well with minimal damage to the walls.
Description of Work: I had them install 3 can lights for task lighting in the kitchen. They ran power off the existing light without any plaster damage which I was expecting. They also installed a 3 way light switch for a stairwell light. The initial solution of a wireless switch didn't work consistently and they ended up having to hard-wire the switches. It works so we are happy but drywall patching was necessary. They were very responsive when the wireless switch was having problems and came out promptly to hard-wire the switches.

I contacted Mike's Electric initially by email and they followed up by phone, scheduled a visit for an Angie's List deal. They were responsive and helpful on the phone. They arrived on time, were knowledgeable and exceeded our expectations. The job was first to install a pendant lamp over our kitchen table. They did that, as well as checked multiple outlets to make sure they were safe and to tighten them up / replace them as we have young children. Truly an exceptionally helpful and professional company, absolutley no hesistation in using them again or recommending them.
Description of Work: Great service, no fuss.

The electricians that performed the whole house inspection were thorough and knowledgable, answered questions, and made appropriate suggestions for improvements. While they were there, they replaced a faulty switch, as well as pointed out where an exhaust fan was unplugged and not being utilized. They took details regarding some other work we were interested in and got back to us with a quote within a few days. Great service, and I would use them again!

Aaron arrived on time, we discussed our situation and he went to work. He was polite and professional and answered our questions.
Description of Work: I purchased a Big Deal Coupon from Angie's List a few months before Mike's came to my house. As it turned out, we did not have a lot of work to do in the two hours allotted. Aaron examined several electric switches and replaced a switch in the master bathroom and a broken electric outlet outside the house. We discussed various options of changing the lighting and wiring in the house which we had purchased about 2 years ago. Mike's promptly sent an estimate about some work. The estimate seemed reasonable enough but we decided to live with the situation for the time being.

Donny arrived on time and got right to work. The entire job took five hours and came in within the estimate. Donny was both professional & friendly and finished the work in an efficient manner. Mike's continues to be our go to business for electrical work.
Description of Work: This was not our first experience with Mike's - we used in the past for some outside conduit work and were perfectly happy. Mikes was again offering a two hours for the price of one coupon and we had a number of things we wanted done. They provided a free up front estimate so we could we out things that were not worth the cost. Ultimately, we had four things done, most notable putting an overhead light above our front porch and a ceiling light outlet in our guest bedroom.

I used an Angies List Big Deal for 2 hours of electrical work which came to $196. Thought that would be enough for one electrical box and one cable box especially since he was using the wiring from the boxes on the other side of the wall. They came out and started explaining all this wiring stuff to me that I have no idea he is talking about. I told him just to put in a box for cable and electric so I could plug in TV. They did. Then I get the bill and see that it has cost be in addition to the $196 another $395! Thats almost $600 for i electrical outlet and one cable! I call and they tell me about the "fine print" in the big deal of having to pay an apprentice labor as well as another electrician. Still $600?? Plus the cable doesn't even work. I call and was told they would figure something out but they never get back to me. Finally they do and decide to reduce the charge by $178 so I pay $416 total. That is ridiculously high amount for the little work. I could have my cable company install the box for $25. I will NEVER use them again and I have told everyone I know about the scam they have going. Angies List should check into that as well.

Response from Mike's Electric
We always welcome comments from our customers and take them seriously. We do regret that this work did not end happily - for either party. In this case, member was advised twice of our use of apprentices - once in the Angie's List coupon information (prior to purchase) and then again in an e-mail sent directly to them two days prior to work. Apprentices are frequently necessary to assist the journeyman electrician complete the work and provide a more-cost effective solution for our customers. The work we actually did was more extensive than that described by member - they reference one electrical box and one cable box. Our records indicate we installed 5 electrical boxes, 2 receptacles and 2 cable TV plates. We also sent one of our supervisors back to correct the problem with the TV at no charge to the customer. We felt our billing was appropriate given the work we actually did, but accomodated the customer by removing all labor for the apprentice, bringing the final bill down to $216.50, so we are not sure where the $416.00 figure comes from. Checking today, we still have not been paid for work completed in May 2012. A cable company could not legally do all the work we did unless they were licensed to do high voltage work.

A circuit failed one weekend and I thought I would have to replace it. I called Mike's, the electrician called back and gave me some advice which fixed the problem immediately. I had my power back and he didn't have to come out. This was his advice: If you can easily flip your circuit breaker switch between OFF and nearly all the way ON, try pushing a little harder toward ON, It requires more force than I'd been using to get the switch all the way ON.

I am an older woman (still with a lot of living to do) that has no concept of electrical issues. I have a few rentals and always worry when I think I need to call an electrician or plumber. I have had friends that have told me horror stories of trying to find reputable people. My Renter called and said their "circuit breakers" kept tripping. I called "Mikes Electric and they were so nice. Infact they discussed possibilities of what was happening to the breakers over the phone and noted I could try those things first. How sweet and how refreshing. I was worried that I didnt want it to be some type of wiring problem and asked for the visit. Everything went great. they were out the next day. Checked everything and did find that it was possibly overloading the plugins. Gave good information to the renters so it will not happen again. I felt good. I will use Mikes Electric for all my electrical needs. It gives me peace of mind to know that if there is an issue I have a professional to call that I will give me a good assessment with follow thru at a very fair price. I am totally satisfied. Sincerely tye

The workers were prompt, thorough, and worked extremely hard all day long. They went out of their way to explain what they were doing, and even put in an extra outlet for me. At the end of the day, they cleaned up well and left everything as it was when they came. I'm very happy with the work they did, and also with the communication and customer service I've received when calling and emailing. Everyone I've spoken with has been incredibly friendly and professional. I wouldn't hesitate to hire them in for future projects.
Description of Work: I had originally purchased the Whole House Electrical Inspection, and when the workers were here doing that they were extremely thorough and discovered some knob and tube wiring that the inspector didn't see in my initial home inspection, perhaps because it was up in the attic under insulation. I also needed a few GFCI receptacles, wanted to have a chandelier installed with a dimmer switch, and a few other small things in the basement.

II had used a promotional coupon last Fall and was pleased with the work Mike's Electric performed for me on a rental property. So when one of my "mushroom" lights shorted out last month, I called them again .....and this time I was disappointed. I felt sorry for the young man who came, who had to be down on his hands & knees on the sidewalk on a cold rainy day! He thought the problem was a broken socket, but after replacing it, none of the 4 lights worked. After another hour or so, he had two working, and had to leave for another appointment and suggested I might want to hire someone to dig the trench that would be necessary before he could finish the job on the other two (probably less expensive than having electrician do), and the office would phone me with an estimate of cost to finish the job. I think it will be prohibitive. I'll probably opt for solar replacements, but wish I had been advised before investing over $200 for a partial solution.

I very much appreciated the professionalism and willing attitude of the electrician who came to my own. Even though I had just a small job that was completed with the 2 hours of work for $99 certificate I got on Angies List I will definately contact this company in the future for all my electrical needs!
Description of Work: A light fixture was fixed and determined to be broken and need replacement so not an electrical issue. A solar powered motion detector was hung on the outside of the house for me.

The electrician showed up on time and with all the tools and wire necessary for the job. He spent about 15 minutes listening to me explain what I wanted done and some other work that I was thinking about having done. Following our discussion, he immediately got to work making sure the electricity was off, removing the old the lights. He then proceeded in to ceiling and assessed the wireing. He informed me of the bad condition and suggested that it be replaced to ensure that it would not start a fire, also he noticed that the ground wire was missing. I gave the go-ahead to replace the wire and complete installing the new lights. The entire job took just under two hours and was clean up as if he was never there. I would strongly recommend Mike's Electric to anyone needing electrical work. I am going to have them back out to replace my electrical service panel, when the time comes.
Description of Work: I hired Mike's Electric to replace to very old garage lights, with two I had just purchased. This was not a very difficult task for them, but I don't like handling electrical wires where the installation is breaking off.

Great JOB! The tech knew his stuff and got the switch and fan installed very quickly. I have used Mike's before and they always have done a great job! On the gable fan, he even made a suggestion I would never have thought of that made the job more effective for me. If I had done this, I wouldn't have even thought of his approach!

Two young men showed up for the repair, and confirmed the light could be fixed, but after buying replacements on the off chance the original light couldn't be fixed, we decided to replace both lights and replace with the new ones. Since we paid for two hours, I knew we would be closer to only an hour's worth of time, so I was really pleased that one of the electricians asked about replacing the switch for the dishwasher, as well as one light switch. This still was well under the two hours, but we really appreciated their proactive attitude. We are very satisfied with the service we received and will definitely use Mike's for any future electrical work.
Description of Work: Purchased a Big Deal for 2 hours of electrian's work for $99. We had a mini-pendant light that was giving us trouble. I called Mike's office and scheduled an appointment to have it looked at. The gentleman I spoke with explained the terms of the Big Deal, as well as suggesting we have the replacement light(s) available in case the light could not be fixed.
