The team at Hufnagel Electric is absolutely excellent. From scheduling with Joyce to the services performed, everything was timely and very professional. Dave troubleshot our basement lights, which were flickering. He replaced the outlet and wiring to the lights which had gone bad. Additionally, I thought a GFI plug had gone dead, but in fact, they figured out that the wiring on the timer had also gone bad. They replaced the timer in an extremely timely manner. They also installed a very large light in our foyer. Based on the level of professionalism and my prior experience, I would not hesitate to hire them again. High recommend!

Hufnagel Electric was excellent to work with. They were one of the most responsive contractors that we've dealt with. Joyce was very thorough and timely with her follow ups. She kept us informed with updates and provided recommendations on equipment upgrade. Jason and his assistant were very pleasant and knowledgeable on the installation. Hufnagel Electric will be our first call for future electrical work.

Excellent as usual. Hufnagel Electric are our go to electricians. They have done everything from replacing our main breaker panel, adding new outdoor circuits, adding outdoor lights, adding a fan etc. They have also helped with updating our electrical needs for our new oven and even provided some advice on an outdoor water heater for our chicken coop. We have had both Jason (Hufnagel Jr.) and Dave (Hufnagel Sr.) work on our house either together or separately. Both do an excellent job explaining things and describing what needs to be done or the problem. Dave in particular has given very helpful suggestions on the more complex jobs that have saved us both time and money. In particular, Dave came up with a solution that helped them avoid going through our new drywall ceiling in the basement. All workers have been professional and polite. The job is always completed in a timely manner.
Description of Work: Troubleshoot our circuit that had lost power to the outside. Our outside lights were no longer working and Jason (owner) and Nick (employee) came out to fix it.

During estimate, asked Hufnagel Sr whether it mattered if we had electrical work before hot tub installation or after. He said "it did not matter". So, we had them come to do installation prior to hot tub delivery and from then on, they were very unprofessional regarding the fact that they should have come after hot tub installation. My husband thought Hufnagel Sr was in fact very condescending, when it should have been them who apologized to us for providing misinformation. For example, he made a sarcastic comment "Oh, you decided to plan ahead this time?" Also Hufnagel Sr's knowledge seemed out of date -- he did not know there was such a thing as a 120 volt hot tub. Actual workmanship appears to be fine, price is mid-range. But for the rudeness shown us, would never recommend anyone hire them, and would not hire ourselves again. Really, we were shocked at all the A reviews after our experience. Hufnagel Jr himself was OK, maybe when Sr retires, company will improve.
Description of Work: 240 volt electrical service for a hot tub, plus an extra exterior outlet with switch.

Response from Hufnagel Electric
I am sorry Ms. [Member Name Removed] was not happy with the service provided by me at the time of her estimate or thereafter. Upon my first visit, she greeted me at the door and wanted to cancel our estimate appointment because I was not there at the exact time she expected me. When scheduling estimates, we always provide a window of 1 to 2 hours because we cannot be sure exactly how long an estimate may last or if we will run into traffic. After first telling me no on doing the estimate, she abruptly changed her mind and decided to go forward with it. I went over the project with her, took measurements, checked the area for the tub install, explained that the tub had to be placed a certain distance from the electrical disconnect on the patio, and talked to her about a trouble shoot she wished to have done on an exterior receptacle. I do not remember a discussion about the tub not being present at the time of our installation of the electrical. I have to admit I was surprised when we showed up for the install and the tub was not there. That is the first time our company did an install for a Hot Tub and it was not present. The price originally quoted did not cover 2 trips to this site. As to there being a 120 volt Hot Tub, there is not. Her Hot Tub was provided with a 240 volt power supply and disconnect for its operation, which is standard across the industry. She must be confused with the difference between a Hot Tub and a Jacuzzi, which does operate on a 120 volt circuit. I apologize for my supposed rude behavior towards her and Mr. Johnson. I do not recall such behavior on my part. I have been an electrician for 37 years and consider myself as good or better at my craft than ever. I also consider the list of positive reviews on Angie's List and Google for my son and myself as proof positive that our company provides a high quality of service and satisfaction. I will take her recommendation to retire under advisement some day but not soon. I still have many customers I hope to make happy with my skills, knowledge and pleasant personality.

The team did a brilliant job! They were very professional, organized, and worked quickly. The price was what we agreed on, albeit it seemed on the higher end of competitive price ranges I could gather. I use to be a network engineer in another life, and I can tell you their cat-5 cabling work is A++. I'd use them again for future work.
Description of Work: Category-5e cable installation throughout the house (about 1000' cable), electrical panel replacement (from a pushmatic breaker box), 200amp service upgrade, new wiring to new GFCI outlets in the basement, cabinet light fixture replacements, timers installed in a few outlets, 2-to-3-gang outlet box upgrade.

Friendly, professional, worked quickly, but relatively expensive, and there were a few issues: 1) in replacing a ceiling fan (w/ pull chain start/stop), with a new ceiling light, they forgot to check if there was an existing wall switch for the light---there wasn't... 2) I didn't appreciate the markup on the fluorescent light ballasts. They charged $80/ap for replacements that likely cost them less than $20/ap, perhaps less than $10/ap.
Description of Work: Changed out 4 fluorescent ballasts on 3 lights, replaced light fixtures.

Response from Hufnagel Electric
This review is the first we are hearing of these issues as the call was completed 1 day ago. Service Call had 2 technicians that showed up at 8am sharp to complete the requested work. Once on site we got to work immediately completing all tasks in a timely manner. *Note* All ceiling fixtures are deenergized at the main breaker panel, not wall switches for safety reasons. If the fan being removed had no wall switch, we should have been told as we were there to change out a fan with a light as requested by the owner. During the service call we informed the customer that each fluorescent fixture had (2) T12/2 bulb ballasts. Therefore, instead of installing (2) ballasts as requested via a phone estimate, (4) were required to get the existing lights fixtures working properly. All prices were quoted and agreed to prior to any additional work beginning and all parts were sourced previously and on site, preventing an extended service call. All the customer stated at that time was "I have replaced ballasts in the past, but these look complicated and that is why I called you guys." In the end all items were completed and the costumer was asked if there was anything else that needed to be looked at. The customer responded "no" then proceeded to shake my father's and my hands as we exchanged some pleasantries leaving via the garage. Had the customer said something regarding the light with no switch while we were on site or even called the office after we had left, there would have been an additional cost to remedy the matter (installing a switch to operate the light) that we would have been more than happy to do. There was no mention of a switch not being present by the owner at that time. We appreciate the fact that this customer would hire our company in the future, but we will be taking a wait and see approach on future scheduling regarding this matter.

Very well, from the estimate appointment to completion. They called after the estimate to follow up on questions and scheduling. The actual work day a small crew came and had it done it a timely manner. They were professional and friendly too.
Description of Work: We had a couple outlets changed from knob and tube wiring and their location changed from along the baseboard to being above in the wall. They also fixed a kitchen ceiling fixture that didn't have a box and added an exterior floodlight with switch.

It went very well. There was good clear timely communication all the time and the two men who came to do the job did it well. I am always surprised that a conceptually simple task cost so much but then there were competitors who were ready to charge far more.
