We didn’t use them because their quote was too expensive. They were charging to come and give us a quote, so that wasn’t very good. We paid them and they gave a quote which was five times higher than the one that we got from others.

The service man came out and was nice and knowledgeable. I showed him the work I wanted done and he sat down and wrote up the estimate. They price their work out using "Book Rate" and the estimate for just installing the microwave outlet was $1700. I called another contactor and paid 1/4 the price of what they quoted me.

The estimate was scheduled quickly and the man arrived on time and was very courteous and thorough in discussing the various jobs and providing the estimate. However, as we went through the house to discuss the work it was realized that there was water leaking into the electric panel from the meter outside (there were horrible storms throughout the day and night). It was recommended that I replace the existing panel for a premium panel, and replace all outdoor meter feeds at a cost of nearly $4900. After discussing with an out-of-state family member who is an electrician and sending him pictures of the panel, he did not think that this work was necessary. When I called the Electric Man back the sales pitch to spend this large sum of money started again. I called in another electrician (Tri-Point) this morning and he concurred with my cousin, the panel is fine. He dried out the panel and all the breakers and reinforced the seals on the meter - $100 service charge. I cannot say whether the Electric Man truly believed that the work they were suggesting was necessary or saw a woman home alone and thought they could take advantage so I will give them an overall C though I do doubt their professionalism when two other electricians have noted the work they were suggesting was not necessary and even if it was necessary was drastically overpriced. I would not recommend the Electric Man and the other work I was planning will be done by Tri-Point.
Description of Work: The initial call was to do a number of jobs including run electric to install an overhead fixture in the living room, switch out a couple of lights/fan for replacements and install a generator.

Response from Electric Man LLC
I am sorry we did not make more clear for you the need to replace the panel in question. In 2005, The National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) put out a white paper entitled: "Guidelines for Handling Water-Damaged Electrical Equipment". These guidelines were developed in the wake of the ever increasing number of hurricanes being experienced in the US and were to aid installers, inspectors and users of electrical products that had been exposed to water. While the paper is a little technical, the basic gist of it is this - if the electrical equipment is subject to water infiltration and it wasn't originally design for submersion in water (this panel was not), then it must either be replaced or "May Possibly be Reconditioned by Trained Personnel in Consultation with the Manufacturer". The manufacturer of the panel in question does not support a methodology for reconditioning water damaged equipment. Their position is basically this - it was never designed for exposure to water then there is no UL approved way to test it good. Larger, more expensive industrial panels/circuit breakers can sometimes be reconditioned, but this is a process that requires very specialized test equipment and documentation - not a $100 drying off with a towel. I would strongly encourage the homeowner to contact her homeowner's insurance carrier and have a discussion with them. The insurer has a financial interest to make sure the house is safe and can provide additional guidance on how best to proceed. I hope this makes clear how our recommendation was developed. We do not take advantage of less experienced individuals; on the contrary we try hard to employee our best technical judgement to each situation we see,

The Plumber and The Electric Man work together from the same company. We used Electric Man first, for a thermostat install and to hang a chandelier. Most recently, we had the plumber come out to fix a broken pipe for an outside faucet. Every time we have dealt with either side (Plumber and Electrician), they are prompt, always give phone calls for arrival time, or time changes, and are a very professional group of people, from the answering service to the service people. I endorse both sides of this company.
Description of Work: Installed a thermostat, hung a chandelier, provided fire alarm and general electrical checks (electric), and fixed an outside faucet pipe (plumber).

The owner quoted and performed the work. He was responsive to phone calls and was on time for both the initial meeting as well as the scheduled installation time. The work area was left cleaner than he found it and he took the time to answer all questions. I was extremely satisfied with the price and the work.

Awesome experience! To begin with, Electric Man prepared a detailed estimate with a guaranteed, fixed price and showed-up on-time each day. They were very respectful of both ourselves and our property, cleaned-up after themselves, patched holes in drywall where necessary, checked with us frequently to ensure we were happy with fixture placement, etc., and showed us everything that was being done. There were some unexpected obstacles with installing both the heatstove blower outlet and venthood, so they called in extra help from the shop and worked late into the night- but they stuck to the guaranteed price. The crew went above and beyond my expectations set by other contractors and have now set the bar at a higher level! It has truly been a great experience, and I will whole-heartedly recommend Electric Man to anyone.
Description of Work: Installed new electrical subpanel and moved circuits from full main panel. Added circuits/outlets for new water heater, cookstove, heating stove. Installed vent hood over cookstove to include ductwork. Changed a large number of outlets connected to wall switch to "continuously hot". Ran wiring, added boxes for and installed ceiling fans. Wired workshop to include lighting, dedicated 220v circuits for large machines, and 110v general purpose outlets.

The man was very nice. Tried to sell me a service agreement. (Who needs a service agreement for an electrician?) Anyhow, I definitely didn't want that. I also was shocked at the total price per room to install this--it's been a while but I remember it being in the ballpark of $600 per room. I needed three rooms installed. I only had one done because I had to use the "deal" I already purchased through Angie's list. The $200 dollars didn't cover half of one installation! I called another electrician who did the remaining two for $200 each.
Description of Work: It was a "deal" I purchased through Angie's list. I needed bedroom ceiling fans wired and installed. I am completing this review so late because Angie's list keeps asking me to. I can't seem to get rid of the popup.

The guy who came out was fine. We had no issues with him and he seemed to do a good job. He was good and professional. He followed up and he fixed whatever we asked him to fix. We had him do a pretty simple work. It was not complex. He seemed like a nice guy and we had someone come in before that I did not care for. We are having an electrical issue in our house but everyone who has come out has said that it is not fixable and he agreed that it is not fixable. I always say that the prices of services are too high and his price was a little higher than what I would have liked. I also do not remember having any problems with his punctuality. I would possibly use him again in the future.
Description of Work: We used Electric Man LLC maybe about three to four months ago for working on some light fixtures and some other things.

Response from Electric Man LLC
Sadly the customer is correct; the first call back was due to an additional problem that showed up about four weeks after our initial visit (literally the problem was the light bulbs) and the second time it was related to an error on our part. When he called we scheduled him immediately and took care of the problem. We were under the impression we left him satisfied in the end and we appreciate his calling to let us know so we could address it. I do apologize for the inconvenience.

I am sorry I don't remember the name of the gentleman who came out. However, we have had this company to our house on a number of occasions and everyone they have sent has carried themselves with high levels of professionalism. There doesn't seem to be a lemon among them! The electrician provided an initial estimate, did the work efficiently, and then charged ME LESS because the job turned out to be less complicated than he originally expected.
Description of Work: The electrician installed two light fixtures, one simple overhead one in the family room and another a bathroom that required cutting a new hole in the drywall and moving wires.

Selecting Electric Man from the other companies was easy. The representative provided a thorough explanation of all that was involved; gas/electric hook-ups, permits required, building codes that were not mentioned by reps from other companies. The installation went smoothly with them providing explanations and updates as the work proceeded. They did a professional job with the installation and will not hesitate to call them for service in the future and I strongly recommend them to others.

The experience was excellent. they were very professional from the interview in going for the quote, to the installation and clean up. They covered every detail, and were thorough with me in explaining in everything that was being done. I chose them because their representative was excellent. I received bids from other companies, but they presented themselves well. I would recommend them to family and friends.

Did not use the "Electric Man" contractor. I will say that "The Plumber", the sister company to the Electric Man, was a much better contractor. Prices were slightly high after the coupon offer was used up, but the plumbing mechanic was very good, and very pleasant. Him I would have back.
Description of Work: Gave me a quote for a day's work for a crew of 2 that was almost 4 times what I ended up paying. Seemed like a lot of marketing material, and not much real substance. It appeared that the rate being charged was around $150/hr. And that was after I got a discount for being in the trade. Not impressed.

It was pretty good except the parts that they replaced, they don't last very long so I have to come and have another electrician come out and pay out like the full price. I had upgraded the parts when they came out like to have more recent upgrades in the parts actually. I had called the Electric Man back and they came out and I was thinking that I still had like warranty on the parts but it had been over a year. The workmanship was really great but I was surprised the parts didn't last more than a year.
Description of Work: Electric Man LLC replaced the parts that I had gotten done from the deal.
