Description of Work: I have used Skip's services several times. The largest job was an extensive upgrade in my home that took 5 days and cost app $3000. Presented with a plan of the work I wanted to have done, Skip was friendly, reliable, professional, highly qualified, efficient; he provided the best possible service. On smaller jobs, his service has also been of the highest quality. I would enthusiastically recommend Skip Billet Electric.

Went well and quickly.
Description of Work: Skip moved an outlet in the bathroom that we were remodeling. After that was completed I mentioned that I had installed a ground fault outlet in our kitchen that didnt work. He quickly diagnosed what I had done wrong and fixed that as well.

Description of Work: I did not use this provider. He promised to send me an estimate "by the end of the week" and since I did not receive anything, had to call him to remind him. He did send it the next day, as promised, and I emailed him with a question. I never heard back from him. I'm using someone else now.

Response from Skip Billet Electric
In my business I communicate by text and phone calls primarily. I missed the email. I thought I was on track with Miss [member name removed].

Provided excellent service. The key to working with a good contractor - is dealing directly with the owner. A contractor business where you work directly with the owner - means you are getting the best and most-experienced "employee" there is..... often - when dealing with large contractors - you might be working with the lowest-qualified individual on their staff. With Skip Billet -you work with a veteran of the industry- who has great experience in virtually "anything electrical" in your home.
Description of Work: Changed and rewired smoke detectors throughout home.

I got him off of Angie's List. He was really good. I was very pleased with him. He has helped me out a lot.
Description of Work: The electrical power in the house was out. I couldn't figure out what the issue was. He came out, and he helped me with the issue, which turned out to be simple.

Description of Work: I left a message for Skip late on a Friday, he returned my call Tuesday morning and we scheduled the work for that Thursday morning at 8:30. I needed a 220 outlet put in my kitchen to accommodate a new range. Skip arrived with his helper (also known as his dad!) and finished the job before 10 am. I couldn't be more pleased with the friendly service and quality of their work.

Skip came in and thouroughly explained what may be the issue with our breaker continuously tripping and went futher to explain a plan of resolution to diagnose the problem and not waste time and money. He was kind, courteous and very friendly. We will definitely use him again.
Description of Work: He tested the breaker to our bedroom that kept tripping to see if it was bad. He then went to the room that was out of power and explained the layout of the electrical wiring. He explained how each socket was put in and what may be tripping the wire. He then tested 3 outlets and disconnected our ceiling fan to take it out of the equation of what might be tripping the breaker. He tested the breaker again and then found the problem was a ground wire touching a negative wire in one of the 3 outlets he tested. He explained how that might have happened and only charged us the service fee not for the hour of work he performed as well.

I would highly recommend Skip Billet. He was honest, friendly, professional and very reasonable. He responded to my message about 2 days after I called. To be fair, my job was not urgent and I let him know that. But he apologized for the 2 day delay which was very professional. My outside electrical box was becoming detached from the house. He came out and did the job at a reasonable price. He came out once before to look at it before figuring out if he could perform the job without having MetEd shut down the service. For both calls he only charged me a total of $75. I know the big boys would have charge at least $100 to come out twice. We struck up conversation and afterwards I felt like I made a new friend. Now, he is one electrician so you won't get to call a secretary or service and have same day scheduling like you would with the big boys but you get a very good electrician who is extremely reasonable and friendly. Skip will definitely be my electrician from here on out.
Description of Work: Outside electrical box was partly detached from the house.

I requested quotes from Skip and two other contractors fo the work decribed above. Skip had the best price. One contractor was nonresponsive. With all contractors I made the mistake of not initially discussing permits, codes and inspection. My township requires a permit and inspection for this type of work. Because most of the work was outside and visible to any interested parties I thought it was important to meet the township's requirements. Skip's initial proposal did not consider meeting code for the underground wiring for the pole lamp. After some further discussion with Skip we came to an agreement as to an approach to meet code at a price which was still less than the competition. Because of the time requied for the township to process the permit Skip was not able to begin the work as originally planned and he rescheduled for about a week and a half later. Skip arrived as promised on the new schedule date and completed the work that same day to my full satisfaction with the only issue being the required inspection. My township's inspection agency had requested three inspections for this work. Skip indicated that one inspection should suffice and that I should call the inspection agency asap and he would support answering any questions via phone. The day after the work was performed the inspector came and approved the work in about five only questioning why my township needed an inspection for the majority of the work performed.
Description of Work: Installed outdoor pole lamp, receptacle, and motion sensor flood light. Replaced indoor ceiling lights.
