My dryer stopped working. It would turn but it would not get hot. It worked for about 5 minutes after they left. My husband noticed that it needed a new plug wire and replaced that and it has been working fine ever since. I was not satisfied with them at all. They got the job done in about half an hour. They were out within a day or two after I called them.

It turned out very well and as planned. They did everything right and they were friendly. They came when they said they would. I couldn’t expect anything more. They came, they saw, and they conquered. I thought the price was expensive because they did not even need to do the excavating which they thought they might have to do. They got the job done over 3-4 hours each day for 3 days.

They are great and awesome. If I have problems I call them and they talk me through it and tell me what to do. They did a good job and I have a service contract with them for my generator. I have been a customer with them for about 4-5 years now. They worked really hard in ice cold temperatures to install the generator. I would not call anybody else.

Thank you for your review though we're sorry to hear you didn't go with our installation. We install generators for the big brand home supply stores too—and our generators are more accurately sized, and often cheaper than their price to our same customers. Only factory-trained technicians offer the warrantied service a generator requires for dependable long-term operation, so please keep us in mind should you ever need our help in the future.

ARC Electric/The Wire Guys as usual provided me with excellent service. I have relied on them for over 20 years an and every time I have called to have work done, they are available and their work is always top quality. They are friendly and great to work with. Their work is excellent, never a problem. With all the bad service from other companies out there, it is always a relief to know that ARC Electric and The Wire Guys are still the best.

The installers arrived as schedule, went right to work. They did not stop for a break or to rest until the installation was tested and complete. They then cleaned up after themselves and went through all the operational training. They did not leave until all our questions were answered and they were satisfied we understood. I would recommend their services to anyone.

He was able to give us an estimate right away and take care of all of the items we wanted taken care of at this time.

The experience was okay. We have dealt with them several times. They are a reputable outfit, and they do exactly what they say they are going to do, and I have always been pleased with them. We have had 2 or 3 people from Wire Guys come to our house over the years to do several things, and they have always just been flexible, knowledgeable, and friendly. They are very competent. You pay for the expertise. If they say they are going to be there, they are there.
Description of Work: We have dealt with Wire Guys. They helped out with disconnecting the thermal storage units, so we could remove them in due time. They mostly worked on the fuse box. They have done other jobs in the same general range.

I wanted to replace a bathroom fixture and it was a good thing I did due to the fact that it was in pretty bad shape. I would've ran into bigger issues if it wasn't done. Bathroom light took a while cause there was an issue with the wire and having to go up to the attic to gain access below. It was all done though, not a challenge. I had to get the security light put in at a later date because it was a two person job and time was a factor for me because I could not get off work that day. They came back today and put in the new light with the new wiring, conduit and breaker to go with it. It was about a good 2/2.5 hours but in the end everything turned out really great. The wire guys are awesome at what they do. They even took down an old antenna tv cable that was flapping in the wind which served no purpose at all. They have my business every time. A+

They understood my request up front and came through without fail. They seemed to appreciate the character of my old home and made me feel as though they were proud to be a part of their participation in its renovation and upgrade. I've used them before, and will use them again as I continue to upgrade.
Description of Work: They added 3 electrical circuits including LED counter-top lighting during a kitchen renovation. In a 164 year old home, this is a chore, being able to get the wires where they needed to be with minimal invasion of the existing structure. I am a meticulous customer when it comes to what I want and what I'm paying for. I have been described as "hard-nosed" and "demanding" by some.

Initially called them on a Sunday night, intending to leave a message inquiring about services and how I would go about getting a quote. Didn't expect to hear back until Monday, but received a call back from Zach within a 1/2 hour letting me know what to expect and that he would have their secretary call me and schedule a visit for an estimate. Also let me know that in many cases, they could begin work the same day as the estimate. Showed up on-time, which was definitely a positive right off the bat (contacted lots of other companies for quotes, and it was pretty rare for someone to show up on-time, one didn't show up at all!) . Was very impressed with the service Zach provided when he arrived, told him not to worry about getting the house dirty since it was pretty much a construction zone, but he put booties on to protect my floors each time he had to go out/in. Listened to my concerns, explained his recommendations, and spent quite some time investigating and evaluating the electrical system in my house - (didn't just glance around and quote a number like some other contractors I went to for quotes). Once he was done with his evaluation, we sat down and he talked me through how he came up with the quote, what work he was recommending, and why he was recommending the work - I really appreciated his willingness to do this, since we bought the house a year ago and didn't know the electrical "health" of the house! Once I agreed to the quote, he said he could definitely start that day, and spent the next few hours working. At the end of the day, he said he would need to come back to finish the work, and we agreed on a day for him to come back. The 2nd time he showed up, he was on-time again, brought a helper named Will, and finished off the remaining electrical work. He definitely knew what he was doing, was very knowledgeable and professional, and answered all my questions. Was conscientious, and it was apparent that he cared about the quality of his work, he even went above-and-beyond in several instances - for example- one of the electrical outlets he was converting from 2-prong to 3-prong was installed straight into the drywall in my house (not attached to a stud), as evidently the previous owner made some ghetto low-budget renovations to the house. After replacing it, he expressed concern that it wasn't attached to a stud, which meant that it was not very well secured and could potentially collapse into the wall in the future if things were plugged in too roughly. He asked for permission to replace the box and add bracing to it (and didn't charge me any extra at all for this). Was very impressed, as he could easily have just done the work we agreed on and we never would have known the difference. He also noticed that a few of our breakers were the incorrect (size? type?) and replaced those without charging us extra, as they were a possible fire hazard. Note: The quote was a bit more than I expected, since several other quotes I received were in the $800 range, but after seeing the amount of time and effort put into the work (a day and a half at least) and the care he took with my house, I definitely think it was well worth it! We have peace of mind that the work was done right, and he treated our house like it was his own.
Description of Work: Updated all electrical outlets in the house from ungrounded 2-prong to 3-prong, installed 2 additional outlets in the bedroom, 3 additional outlets in the basement, fixed 3 GCFI outlets in the kitchen, and replaced incorrectly sized breakers in our electrical panel
