Excellent. Northside's Homeworks division inspected the project and developed for our consideration a proposal of recommended systems and equipment, including various options. On site installers were courteous, competent, professional, and willing to develop better alternate installation approaches when onsite conditions warranted. The systems have all worked flawlessly since installation. Homeworks has also been very responsive to advising on and performing subsequent equipment upgrade requests.

We had 4 days of various types of electrical work to be performed. Northside explained clearly what they would do and what it would cost, then they showed up on time and did all the work right the first time. We worked with four of their technicians, and all were friendly, courteous, highly knowledgable and professional. I'd say their pricing is competitive rather than cheap, but we couldn't have asked for a better service experience. We'd use them again in a heartbeat.

Wonderful, I will call them in the future for any further electrical needs.
Description of Work: Had a TV wall mount installed and a wire in our wall was hit which shorted out the kitchen. Called Northside and Jon came out the same day. He worked diligently for a couple of hours before finding the problem which was difficult since our home is 60 years old. He managed to bypass the problem to get us working without having to cut any holes in our walls.

The best electricians in Salem for sure. I just had new siding put on my house and all the exterior lights (five) had to be re-installed for which I bough all new light fixtures. I also had to have an exterior electrical outlet replaced and a heat pump power box attached to the new siding. The electrician, Chuck, was early (called first to verify if it was OK), and did all the work in just under an hour. I was thoroughly impressed with how efficiently and professionally he did the job. He was a really nice guy and very knowledgeable with my questions. I was initially expecting it to take to 2-3 hours minimum and he got it completed in 1 hour. My exterior is now well lit once again. I would highly recommend them and would definitely use them again in the future if I have electrical needs. Thank you Northside.

I called nearly 10 companies all over Oregon and I all the estimates I got were far above in cost then what my invoice turned out to be with this company. The electrician did not waste time and got the job done quickly. I appreciated this greatly since we were on a budget with this job. Furthermore, Valerie at the billing office quickly got me the invoices since I needed it for legal reasons. They went above and beyond. I would absolutely hire them in the future.

We would like to thank all at Northside Electric for giving us such a positive experience. Our older home had knob and tube wiring that needed to be updated. Jeff Crandall visited us first, cast an expert eye over our home and gave us sage advice. He helped us avoid a couple of errors we might have made. The guys who did the work -- Keith Webb, Paul Turner, and Rick Dewar -- did a splendid job. At all times they brought their best judgment to the task, treating our home with the same level of care as they would have given their own. And the folks who manned the desks were so professional, too. Specifically Ginny and Crystal. We recommend Northside Electric to all.

Not very well. Got the job done but could have done a better job and stuck to the estimate since nothing was added to the original request.
Description of Work: House is in escrow and per inspector need some minor work done. They installed 3 GFIs in the kitchen area. All wall sockets are Almond colored and he put in white GFIs. Used cheap made in China GFIs that make it almost impossible to plug into. Called Northside and was told these were what are being used now and just to push hard. Really? Said they would call me back and I am still waiting after a week. The estimate was for $299 and the bill was for $378. He only did two other small items but only items that were on the estimate. Would I recommend this Company? NO, NO, NO.

When we built the house 24 years ago, two large attic fans were installed through the roof. The roof was replaced this year and I was originally told the fans would be no problem and could be used with the new roof. In the middle of the roofing job, when the fans were examined closely, it was determined they needed to be replaced. The roofers were not licensed to do anything electrical so I needed an electrician FAST. The roofers could not continue until the fans were installed. I called Northside and they immediately worked me into the schedule. The electrician came in early and arrived at my house by 7:00 a.m. so the fans could be done in time for the roofers that day. I really appreciated their coming to my rescue!

The original appointment was for 5/8/14 at noon. At 9:30 the electrician called, saying that he'd gotten his early work done, and could he come out at 10:00. I said OK. He hadn't arrived by 10:55, and I called the office to cancel that appointment, and reschedule it to 5/14. Another electrician arrived on time on 5/14. He did good work, and came in under the estimate. Northside Electric was the only one of three Angie's List contractors who seemed interested in doing the job. The other two couldn't be bothered.

I was referred to Northside by word of mouth. The electrician (Mike) did an excellent job re-routing the wires so that we could tear down a wall. The total time for the job was almost 4 hours. The bill was $315.00. There was a small charge for material included in the price. Mike also checked wiring for our front light. Found out our fixture was out and wasn't an issue with the actual electrical wiring. Appreciated that! The only downside was timing. They arrived 2 hours later than scheduled. I had the day free so this wasn't an issue. I would definitely hire again, as I think they're the least expensive in Salem and the service was good.
