Mr. Blige was kind and courteous in addition to being a true professional. He was easy to get in touch with and we scheduled my appointment. He was ahead of schedule and called to see if he could come early. He did and he completed the job professionally. I will definitely call him for any future electrical needs. Thanks for your kindness and professional service.
Description of Work: Mr Blige installed 2 outlets in our basement to accommodate our new appliances. We had extension cords with cords everywhere. He came in, evaluated everything including the panel and came up with a plan. The 2 new outlets allowed us to get rid of all the cords and now everything has a proper plug.

I needed to replace a fan light fixture with a regular light fixture. When I took the fixture down, I was unable to reconnect the wires properly, leaving the outlets, light and hallway light without power. I contacted Mr. Blige through Angie's list to request a quote. He replied on the weekend, within 24 hours with an estimate. We scheduled according to my convenience (within 2 days). Mr. Blige is very nice, punctual and professional. He had the work completed quickly. I would absolutely use him again and will be referring his services in the future.
Description of Work: Changed out a light fixture.

Purcell Bilge was very responsive, he came within 1 hour of my call when one of the smoke detectors was intermittently emitting n alarm for no reason. After inspection and disabling all 3 smoke detectors he let me know that he would be back in 2 days to replace the alarms. He arrived on time and within 30 minutes he had replaced all of the smoke detectors. He is a kind and efficient professional who is attentive to the customer's needs and concerns.
Description of Work: the provider inspected, disconnected a dysfunctional hardwired smoke detector. Then he came back and replaced all three of the hard wired smoke detectors which he purchased at a very good price. I paid the additional $40 for 3 smoke detectors.

I contacted Purcell based on Angie's list. He asked if I wanted an estimate. Based on the reviews, I was confident enough to have him do the work and then give me a bill. Purcell arrived on time with his young teenage son (helper) who had completed school for the summer. I showed him what I wanted done. He readily understood and went right to work. He was courteous and caring as to neatness. He had all the required tools and material with him so there were no delays. He gave me the 5% discount as advertised.
Description of Work: Installed two new electric circuits and rewired 2 others.

He was not very friendly and I wasn't a fan of his service. He was frustrated with my request and he didn't split the light switch and left a whole in my wall that I had to get patched. I will also need to hire someone to fix the work he did.
Description of Work: I purchased a $49 Big Deal for $249 worth of Electrical Services. I asked him split the light witch from my front doorway to the mud room.

The best word to describe them would be efficient. They knew what needed to be done and resolved my problem. They did a great job cleaning up. I'd have never known they were there. Except everything worked
Description of Work: I had a short causing all lights and outlets on my 2nd floor to go out. They came in found the problem quickly. However it was much more involved. They had to install a junction box run three new lines. Move a 220 line to a different location. They did an awesome and inexpensive job. They did a couple other items while they were, installed a new ceiling box allowing me to hang a new light. I can't thank them enough. They arrived on time and with very little notice to help me out.

This was the second time I've used Mr. Blige. I had a Big Deal from him last year I needed a new light fixture in my kitchen because I wanted to use an LED bulb. We spoke about what type of fixture would be appropriate for a LED bulb and after I bought the fixture, we arranged a day and time. Mr Blige was prompt and installed the new fixture with ease. He's a really nice guy and we had a good conversation while he worked. I had not asked him how much this was going to cost. Imagine my surprise when he said $35.00!! Now I know this was a pretty easy job (wiring was all there and many people would have done this themselves, but not me). Most electricians won't come out for that little $$. I gave him $40 and was happy to do so.

He helped me resolve it extremely quickly. Basically I should have known these switches are a bit different than all others, and the shift to turn "off" was a bit different, but basically like you read in all the websites - all you have to do is turn it "off" (all the way to the right position) and then back on.
Description of Work: helped me resolve an issue with the arc type breaker type braf switches that turned off.

it turns out that no work was nessesary, and Mr. Blige gave me an honest and professional opinion. Had he been dishonest and told me I needed work I would have paid him on the spot, but he is a honest business man and I was very pleased with his assessment of my electrical system. I will use him for all of my future electrical work. A++++

My wife and I purchased a $399 Electrician for the Day coupon. Percell wrote to us to ask us about the scope of work we wanted done, and we sent him a prioritized list of items (ranking them from most important to least important, in case he didn't have time to finish them all). He came with a helper. The coupon specified 1 electrician for 8 hours or 2 electricians for 4 hours. They ended up staying a bit longer than 4 hours, and they got way more of our list done then I would have guessed. There was a very reasonable additional charge for materials ($70 for our projects). These guys did great work, and were very communicative throughout the whole process. I highly recommend them to anyone. I especially recommend buying their Electrician for the Day coupon, if you've got a laundry list of miscellaneous electric projects like we did.
Description of Work: Here is our prioritized project list: 1. hung a chandelier in our entryway 2. hung pendant light in our dining room 3. hung two new light fixtures in our kitchen fixing an old pendant light that wasn't working properly 4. installed two new ceiling fans, replacing old broken ones 5. added a new dimmer switch 6. rewired a basement light
