He was completely professional and easy to understand. We had to add breaker boxes and separate wires and mae it to code since the house wasn't built that way. Reasonable and fair.

The electrician arrived punctually. Identified himself. Quickly diagnosed and repaired the problem. The cost was reasonable, and Angie's list coupon was accepted. He also advised on some lighting changes which we ourselves could care for in an economical way.

Very professional. Called first, of course. Arrived on time. Accepted out $30 coupon without a blink, and put in their computer that we were eligible for a 10% discount as members of Angies list. Cleaned up. Made the repairs efficiently. All for $50, after the coupon! We will call upon them in the future. High marks!

James with Barnes Electric was very professional. He looked professional, answered my questions, performed a great quality job, and offered an outstanding job that was a cheaper compared to other companies, without losing quality. James installed a 40A 240V circuit in my garage, without any hesitation. I felt confident in his experience and decision-making. He outlined all of the steps he would perform and the reason he felt certain things should occur with the electrical, to ensure it does not affect other items within the home. His work presentation was awesome and my wife felt positive about it as well. A few weeks went by after he installed the 40A 240V circuit, prior to me ordering the electric vehicle charger. I contacted him to install the charger and he provided me a great quote to install it. The charger has been installed and I am successfully charging my Nissan Leaf with my new charger. I recommend him highly to family, friends, and anyone looking for an electrician. You will not be disappointed. --Tim
Description of Work: James with Barnes Electric installed a 40 A 240V circuit in my garage for an electric vehicle charger. In addition, he mounted the electric vehicle charger and mounted my panel for my security system as well as ran the electrical wire in the wall for the security system panel to ensure it was not visible.

They came out and did an estimate that outlined exactly what service they would perform, where outlets would be added and where existing outlets would be modified. They explained how they would add a new circuit to handle the load. Once the estimate was totaled, they even gave us a discount for telling them we found them on Angie's list. They came back to do the work and were very pleasant and professional. They cleaned up after their work in every room leaving it tidy.

James cuts corner wherever he can. I hired him to install a convert a 220 Volt ? 40 Amp outlet to a 110 Volt ? 20 Amp outlet and install an outlet for my cooking range. He showed up 1 hour late for the estimate and 1 hour early for the work. Because of this, I was not home during time of install. Here?s where all the issues came in. 1) He only had a 4 prong outlet (the wire is made for 3 prong), and wanted to charge me more for him to go out and get the correct one. I made an effort to show him this during the estimate session. 2) He installed the outlet above the line of sight of the range, where my new back-splash would go. And refused to move it down, citing that my wires are not long enough. I?m handy enough to know that it?s pretty simple to extend the wiring. This is causing me spend extra money moving the outlet down and repairing the hole in my drywall where he installed the previous outlet. 3) In his conversion of the 220 Volt to 110 Volt, he simply broke the previous double-pole breaker in 2, instead of installing a blank breaker. Depending on the installation method, this may cause me to have an extra live wire in my wall, a fire hazard.

Response from Barnes Electric
[Member name removed] I am sorry you were not happy with my work. 1st of all we were running late to give you a FREE estimate but we called to let you know. we still made it in the 3 hour window that I gave you when the Original appointment was set up. 2nd you set up appointment for Monday to do the work then called and said you needed it done on Saturday So I changed my planes. I called you to tell you I could come 1 hour early if that would work you said it was ok. 3rd you changed from a surface mount outlet to a recessed outlet so I did not have the right one. 4th the double pole breaker WASN'T cut in half as you can see in your photos the top one is a 40 amp breaker that is marked Spare I left it there to fill a hole in the cover because the little blank you can buy for that come loose and fall out the breaker will never fall out. The other wire was used for a Neutral because in a 3 wire system you have to have a hot a neutral & a ground. I was trying to tell you that on the first trip but someone had already told you how it needed to and you were telling me how it had to be done I've been doing electrical work for 30 years right here in middle Tn. And I promise you there is not a fire hazard left in in your home by me. If you spliced the range wire and covered it up then you may have a problem. That is why I would not move it. IF YOU WOULD LIKE I WILL GIVE YOU A 100% REFUND. JUST CALL OR TEXE ME YOR ADDRESS AGAIN I AM VERY SORRY YOU WERE UNHAPPY WHATEVER IT TAKES TO MAKE IT RIGHT I WILL DO IT

I did not think he would be able to label the new breakers and it was not in the quote. However, he (and 3 other guys) spent a lot of extra time figuring out which breaker went to what... Hard to imagine a breaker box looking so good...!!!
Description of Work: We have a 1950's brick ranch house. There were two old breaker boxes and only a couple of the breakers were labeled. He replaced both electrical panels (one large and one smaller) with new panels and all new breakers. He corrected some of the previous owner's "electrical work" by fixing overloaded breakers; and ran new wiring for the dryer.

That went very well. They were very prompt, very courteous and they did a nice job. The pricing was interesting, because I think it is the same pricing if I call them to do it again, than it was for the Big Deal. They were very responsive.

They arrived promptly as promised and did a very efficient and thorough job (and it was a big job, too, lasting literally all day). They were able to minimize the time the power was off, which is no small thing since the heat index that day was 104. When there was a brief power outage the night after they'd finished, we called them and they immediately came out at no extra charge to double check and make sure that everything was OK. They were professional and polite, and did quality work on a big job for a fair price. I would definitely call them again if I needed more electrical work.
Description of Work: Replaced outside wiring; replaced circuit panels; replaced all outlets and switches; installed two ceiling fans and an overhead light fixture (basically rewired the house).

I contacted them and they were on site that day to look at the room and quote out the job. They were the only electrician to come onsite and not have a trip charge. Several others tried to quote site unseen and I turned down the ones who charged to come out. This was originally supposed to be a larger job but some last minute changes in what we planned to do with the room cut out several pieces of work. I thought the job would no longer be worth their time, but they came out as planned and did a fantastic job. Everything was done quickly, cleanly, and correctly. The finished product looks great. I will definitely use them in the future.
