I found George on Angie's List. He had good reviews. I called him and followed up with an e-mail. I explained that I purchased an exhaust fan to remove cigar smoke from the room over my garage, which has been converted to a man cave. He made a time to do the work, showed up on time, gave me an estimate and did the job for the agreed price, cleaned up and left. I was very pleased with it.

Mr. Shuler was punctual as usual. He is a competent electrician and is very neat. He always leaves things as he found them, i.e., moving furniture back, etc. He's also very personable.

Everthing went fine. There is one more GFI outlet on the outside back porch that needs repairing. I will call Mr. Shuler later when the weather is better and request that he fix it when he has some extra time.
Description of Work: GFI (Ground Fault Interrupter) Had trouble with the GFI outlets on front and back porch after moving in almost 13 years ago. Had the builder's electrician out a number of times to fix problem back then. Had problems with having to hit reset too often since then. Called Mr. Shuler on Monday afternoon and he came the next day. After a long investigation (total time at house about four hours) and a number of trips under the house tracing wiring, it appeared that the builder's electrician didn't fix the problem but just bypassed it by cutting the ground wires. The ground wire had been shorted to a hot wire somewhere between the outlets. Mr. Shuler spliced the ground wire around the short and reconnected them to the outlets. He also replaced two GFI outlets.

We had a few wires under the house that were just lying on the ground with wire caps that looked unsafe. I called one electrician based on a recommendation but he never showed up after calling back. I boxed up two of the three wires but one was a 220 line that just didn't look right to me so I went to Angies list and found Mr. Shuler who came highly rated. I called and left a message and he called back and we set up a time to come out. He showed up promptly on time, checked out the wires. They were dead wires left by contractors who built the addition on the house. He removed them, then checked our electrical system grounding and capacity which checked out. He was very professional, nice, and took the time to explain things to me. He only charged me for a routine service call. He is now my official electrician. Good guy who I'd recommend to anyone.
Description of Work: Fixing wires in crawl space and checking general electrical system in the house.

Mr. Shuler made time to come out and access my electrical problems w/in 2 hours of calling him. He was actually off for the holiday, but still made time to come by. In no time, he had everything taken care of. He tested everything before he left to ensure everything was working properly
Description of Work: Replaced porch light wiring and light. Replaced outdoor light sensor. Glass screen door had flung open due to the wind, which tore the outdoor light right off. The electrical wire was fried and the lights in the bedroom and bath went out. The price included both the sensor part and the actual outdoor light.

Mr Shuler responded to my phone request immediately upon receipt of the message I left. Even though I live quite a distance from his normal route, he made the trip. Once he arrived, he was very professional and thorough. His detailed explanation of the work required was comprehensive and easy to follow. An unmitigated professional!
Description of Work: Mr Shuler provided a complete examination of my electrical box both inside and outside my home.

We first went to Angie's list to find an electrician. Mr. Shuler had a number of very positive reviews. We called him, described our problem (three wall sockets had just quit working no tripping of a breaker just would not work), and set up a time for the repair. Mr. Shuler arrived at the agreed time, quickly isolated our problem and made the repairs consisting of replacing 2 of the plug in sockets and repairing a damaged wire. We just joined Angie's list. Mr. Shuler was our first need and his response and professionalism have sold us on the service that is provided on Angie's list. We will definitely call Mr. Shuler again with any electrical problem or service we would need....

Excellent. See previous comments
Description of Work: Mr. Shuler is excellent to work with. He responded quickly to my inquiry and came to perform services two days after our initial contact. We recently moved into a home that was remodeled and we have experienced several situations where a GFI has tripped. The most recent outage stumped us and Mr. Shuler saved the day! He took the time to go under our house and follow the each wire and he discovered a ground fault under the house! We like him so much that he is coming back to install wiring for our dock. It is now a few weeks later and Mr. Shuler returned (as promised) and completed the electrical work to our dock. He is dependable and sticks to his word. Excellent workmanship.

My wife and I started a subscription with Angie's List to find a electrician, and picked Mr. George Shuler because of his high ratings. There is a reason he is rated so highly and we were not disappointed. Mr. Shuler was fantastic to deal with. He was extremely professional and knowledgeable in his field. He stuck to his time estimation and cost quote. You can tell he really takes pride in his work and craft. We will definitely hire him for our next electrical job.
Description of Work: Ran wiring, cut ceiling and installed two ceiling fans and wall switches. Installed plug outlet into kitchen island. Installed dedicated circuit and wiring for microwave. Installed dedicated circuit and wiring for kitchen outlet.

He arrived promptly. Was very courteous and friendly. He had the necessary parts needed to fix the problem, already on his truck. He diagnosed the problem and quickly got my hot tub up and running. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again.
Description of Work: He fixed a problem with my hot tub. The GFCI was tripping the circuit breaker. So he traced down the problem at the main control panel which had been wired incorrectly.

I contacted Shuler Electric and another company in Camden, SC. The company in Camden never bothered to return my phone call. Mr Shuler was quick to respond and set up an appointment the very next day, a Saturday. He arrived on time and went straight to work analyzing the problem and fixing it. He also checked another issue that had been reported on a home inspection.
Description of Work: We had a weird experience where the outlets supporting our garage door openers had both quit. Mr Shuler came out on Saturday morning, checked all the circuits and isolated the problem. As it turned out, it was only a loose grounding wire in the electrical panel, but he resolved it quickly and professionally.

We told Mr. Shuler about the various electrical problems we'd experienced. He checked the wiring in the breaker box, checking for loose wires, first. He also explained why he would have wired the connections a different way. He explained his recommendations and I requested that he rewire the panel. When that was done, I asked him to check the ceiling light fixtures where the bulbs had burned out too soon. I also asked him to check the switches to the fixtures, followed by checking a nearby outlet. Mr. Shuler explained the speed connections and recommended changing them to terminal connections. He explained so that I can do it myself. He also checked the grounding connection outside. Inside the breaker box/panel, he checked EVERY connection and identified wires that had been clamped down on the insulation, rather than metal-to-metal. He also bound up the wires to reduce the chances of other problems popping up in years to come. He was thorough, professional, informative, and pleasant. I would definitely call him again.
Description of Work: Evaluated breaker box, ceiling lights' installation, switches and sockets for possible issues. Two ceiling lights had burned out their bulbs after only a few months, so we were worried about whether wiring had been done correctly when the house was built. We'd also had trouble with a breaker failing, causing the AC to stop working. Another house down the street had a fire in the attic a few years back, and we were concerned about our home being safe.

Mr Shuler gave me an detailed quote within three days of looking at our house. He scheduled a start time with us and was on time everyday and was very respectiful of our house and animals. He finished on time and stuck to the original quote. I am lucky to have found him and will use him in the future, but he did such a good job, I doubt we will need to use him on our house!
Description of Work: Mr Shuler and his associate rewired our 1940s Avenues Home. We had old cotton strand wiring and they replace all of that with new romex. They also replaced all outlets, switches, and face covers and hung several new lights. Mr Shuler installed 9 new recessed lights in our kitchen and bathroom.

I originally thought that it was a faulty GFI and after investigating for a couple hours had decided I need help. Called on Friday and got appointment for that evening. Was happy that he was able to make an appointment after normal business hours (5:30) so that I did not have to take off from work. Unfortunately I was called back shortly after appointment was made. He apologized and I appreciated that he called as soon as he found out that he would be likely be late. I've had others services that tried to fit me the same day and when other jobs were taking longer then expected, just assumed that I would be available whenever they got there. I had plans for Friday night but so we scheduled a time for Saturday morning again allowing me not to miss work. He arrived in the morning and detected and fixed the issue in less than half an hour. Because it was such a short job he waived the typical $75 diagnostic fee and only charged $50. The biggest plus was that he explained as he went what he was doing and why he was doing it.
Description of Work: Diagnosed and found a bad neutral wire that caused 5 outlets not to work.
