Mike and his wife Michelle were right on time for our scheduled appointment. They were very pleasant ,worked great together and obviously knew what they were doing.I had two ceiling fans taken down in my kitchen and replaced with new light fixtures, two other ceiling fans replaced , and a GFI outlet repaired. They also replaced an old vent fan in my bathroom which turned out to be a much more difficult job than I thought it would be.........thank God I had them do it because I would never have been able to do it myself ! Their charges were more than reasonable and well worth it.......it probably would have taken me a whole weekend to do what they did in three hours. I highly recommend them and will definately call them again in the future. I'm now a firm believer that some jobs are better off left to the pros !

Because it was something that required a little testing to determine the root cause he had to come back a few times tweaking and fixing things each time him and his wife came. If you did this with a plumber they would charge you a $75 service call each time they came out even if they didn't fix it correctly the first time. Not with Michael. He came back until the job was done. I recommend contacting him directly and not using the Angie's List deal. He is so reasonable you don't need the deal.
Description of Work: Michael had to track down the reason one circuit in my house was losing power without tripping the breaker.

Everything went without a hitch. They showed up 15 min. early. Went right to work. One unpacked the fixtures and assembled them for installation while helping the Master Electrician as needed to install. They cleaned up after themselves. Very professional and very efficient.

They were professional, prompt, careful, and reasonable. This is a husband/wife team and they work very efficiently together. We will use them again. This time it was minor stuff that we didn't have time to fix. Next time we will have more work for them as we remodel the house.
Description of Work: Helped us identify circuits. They also changed a faulty switch advised us on future wiring options.

They came out to replace almost all the outlets. The house is not grounded, and the outlets are all linked, so they identified the main outlets in order to use fewer expensive outlets. They checked the outlets that weren't being replaced and discovered 1 wasn't set up properly, so they corrected it. They also created a new outlet behind the fridge, and ran separate electric to the dishwasher. They installed 2 new switches in the breaker box since I frequently overloaded the power in the kitchen. The house's wiring is old and not always standard, and they worked very patiently to get everything set up correctly. They even switched out 1 of the new outlets for a different 1 at my request. They were friendly and hard working, and seemed comfortable around my dogs. I've been able to run all of the appliances in the kitchen without anything tripping or shutting off. I haven't had any problems with the new outlets, either. The price was very good and I'm very pleased with the work.

I ended up having to reschedule a couple of times due to changes in my own schedule, and the changes were accommodated with no problem. They arrived as scheduled on my appointment date and worked solidly for the two hours on the various tasks I had listed. They were also able to provide some small parts I needed but didn't have at a very inexpensive price, and hauled away the old ceiling fan. This is my first experience with A1 Electric and I will hire them again. Thank you!
Description of Work: Replaced several outlets and switches. Removed and replaced ceiling fan. Fixed garage lighting (ended up being a switch problem.) Checked switches and outlets in office to determine what the switches control. Checked switches and light/fan/heater in bathroom.

I'm very happy, they installed the ceiling fan and the bathroom fan in a timely manner. It was two weeks ago. There was a fee for materials and they stayed about thirty minutes later than the two hours. I was very happy and I will use them again. Their price was very reasonable.

I purchased coupon for 2 hours of electric service for $100. The work was completed in one hour so he said that he would return to perform an additional hour when I needed it. Very friendly and professional and the work was performed quickly. I will definately call A1 Electric for my future electrical needs.

The husband and wife team did great. They were friendly and knew what they were doing. I expected to have to pay more than the $100 deal of 2 hrs of labor since they provided the materials needed but they didn't charge me any more. I did give them a tip.
Description of Work: They ran coaxial cable fm my LR room up to the attic & fm my upstairs BR to the attic so I could put an TV antenna in the attic. I'd had trouble with getting good TV reception since they went digital. Since my antenna had a power booster, they also added an electrical plug in the attic. They also put in a phone line in my kitchen so I could hook my new security system up so the system can dial out when triggered.

They installed a ceiling fan and electric cables and switch boxes in a room where there was no fan. Also they fished the walls to run Cable TV wire,so I didn't have to drill holes in my wood floors....Great prompt service and reasonably priced. I will definitely use A1 electric again ! A+++++

The job went well and I am very pleased with this company. They are friendly, honest folks and I would (and have) recommended them to friends and neighbors. After about 2 months the flood lights stopped working so I called them. They came right out, found and fixed the problem right away. Very nice people!

He and his wife came and put in a few more outlets for me. He told me that because it didn't take as long i still had another hour on my voucher that I bought. These people were the kindest, nicest people to work with. I highly recommend them to other people.

The husband and wife team were prompt and courteous. The previous electrician did not complete the job, so it was difficult to know what was not completed. The electrician looked at all that had been previously done and made suggestions to correct some errors. They cleaned up after themselves and even took off their shoes at the door, in order not to track in mud. Very pleased with the work; will call them again should I need electrical work done.
Description of Work: Wired up ceiling fans and installed plug in receptacles. They also corrected some things the other electrician messed up.

Mike and Michelle checked everything on my list and it turned out I didn't have as many problems as I thought I did! The promptly and professional fixed what needed to be fixed and gave me an estimate for another item. Since my to-do list only took up 30 minutes of their 2-hour time slot, they will be back (and I will be glad to see them!). I really appreciated them explaining things to me in plain language.

We had purchased a big deal for the service, and it worked out very good. I only had a small job for them, and he gave me a 100 Dollar credit for the next job, instead of taking the whole amount. They were very pleasant, they were on time, and they didn't talk to me like I was a dumb woman. They were very respectful. They were all round very professional. They gave me an estimate for the work, but unfortunately for them, my neighbor is an electrician, and he said he would do it for me.They were great, and we were happy to use them.
Description of Work: We used A1 Electric. The lights in my laundry room were not working properly, and they came and took care of that, and they checked out my circuit breaker box, and let me know that it was an old box, and could possibly cause a fire, so I should get it replaced.
