Bower Electric was on time for both the quote and the actual service call. They were very professional, kept the work area protected with blankets and cleaned up after themselves. The work took 5 hours because they had to run new wires, make sure the new bracket was securely mounted to studs, etc.
Description of Work: We had them mount our 50" tv to the wall above our fireplace. In order to do this they had to install a new outlet, which also included outlets for all the satellite, Playstation, etc.

The [member name removed] were very good customers to work for. Communicating with them was easy and they promptly answered any questions we had prior to work being done. We look forward to working for them in the future.

Initially the experience was great. I was not charged for the estimate. I was quoted about $12,000 for the entirety of work - approximately $6,000 for each unit. What I actually got was charged for them to come back and fix their own mistakes, they simply claimed that it was my mistake. 4 receptacles didn't work, the range hood/vent hole for the cords to be wired was in the wrong place, and the wired up my oil furnace, which isn't something I wanted done at all, as I was paying them to install ELECTRIC baseboard heat in both units. On the downstairs unit alone, I've paid about $8,000 and the work still isn't completed - I refused to allow them access to my home any further, because I wasn't about to be charged for their mistakes again. When I corresponded with them about the discrepancies and inflated billing (already about $2,000) over the quoted cost for the unit, I got disrespected and told that my opinion is irrelevant. They refused to reimburse me for incomplete/incorrect work, and as of yet I still don't have my house key back from them - they haven't returned it. I would not ever recommend this company for any type of service.
Description of Work: Hired to rewire the upstairs and downstairs of a duplex from knob and tube wiring, to modern wiring, and also to install electric, baseboard heat in both units of the duplex.

All baseless claims. I offered twice to hook up receptacles, at no cost, that did not work, I think because a junction box was missed. We were not informed until almost two weeks later that these were not working. The job was never finished so to claim they were overcharged is not correct. Job was priced based on doing whole job while everything was open then was asked if they only did first floor if price would be half of total. I told them it may be approx half but several walls and ceilings that were suppose to be open to run wires were in fact not. This made getting new wires harder. We were told hood wire was 3 inches off, that is very possible but hood was not on site and hood covered everything I'm sure. The wall behind the hood was open too so moving it 3 inches probably took a few minutes. We were told two kitchen walls were not being touched so boxes were not set out for drywall. Then it changed so we had to put a few box extensions in which took about 5-10 minutes, I told her to take extensions that were a few dollars and $100 off, she did not. We connected the furnace because we were told not to install heaters for awhile. Final payment was just received a few days ago and by her request we are to send key back within 10 days of final payment, key is ready to be sent back as soon as check is confirmed good. I asked her how she could say she was overcharged when work was not complete and how does she know how I would handle invoicing at end. I would have totally made everything right and been fair. Communications were very difficult with her and her boyfriend, until she started complaining. I did not want it to end like this but I'm glad we are done dealing with them.

The new lights are great. Our garage, before the installation, was dark and it was difficult to see without opening the large doors which let in bugs. Now, the garage is as bright as daylight regardless of the time of day or night outside. We can find the tools we need and take care of the cars without having to open the large doors.
Description of Work: We had new lighting installed in our garage which consisted or re-wiring the area, adding outlets, installing and mounting 4 overhead lights and adding a switch.

They have done work for me previously. His prices are comparable. I would use him again. They are very good and I would fully recommend him.
Description of Work: I used Bower Electric to do a couple of little minor things. He did some electrical outlets; there were a couple that needed to be updated. He also resolved a problem with my bathroom light.
