Description of Work: Service man arrived 15 mins early, which was fine and was very professional. He explained up front that it was $90 for the service call and the $85.00 an hour with a minimum of 1 hr., plus any parts, etc. for the job. (The dryer 220 outlet was dead) I thought the cost was pretty steep, but he was already there and I needed to get the dryer going. I should have asked about cost on the phone, I guess. I haven't had an electrician come to the house for quite awhile. He replaced one breaker and installed a new attic light, which I had to relocate the switch afterwards because it was on a rafter where one held on climbing up and down the attic stairs. I think the quality of work was good, but I would like to compare prices for an hour and half of simple repairs for almost $400.00.

Description of Work: I had to contact them after I purchased their special...very apologetic for not calling...made appt. and was 30 minutes late, but did call to notify me. |Daniel did a good job of switching a fan and light, plus installing a new electrical plug -in for me. Unable to do the GFI that I wanted in the bathroom, but was going to 'talk to the boss' and get a new bid for me. That was the last I heard from them...no call from the boss! If I was in need of an electrical company again, I would give them a chance to come again, but have the appointment confirmed!!!

Description of Work: My initial contact with Garrett Martin was quite positive. He provided me with a phone quote to replace 5 large hanging light fixtures based on their size, weight and height of ceilings. We scheduled an installation appointment for nearly a month later due to his busy schedule. I called the office the day before asking that someone call me to confirm the appointment. No one called. I reached Garrett at about 7:45 am on the day of the appointment. He told me he was not at the office and that Monica should have called me and that if we were on the schedule someone would be there. During the day no one ever called me even though I left 2 messages. I called again the next day asking that someone call me to advise whether or not the company was still interested in doing the job. It is now 3 days later and I still have not received a call.

Installing granite countertops requires coordination with multiple parties, including an electrician. We located Martin Electrical (Garrett) on Angie's List and gave him a ring. After our intital conversation, I was very pleased with what I heard and entered into an agreement with Garrett. Garrett was punctual - arrived on the day / time he stated he would. Initially, Garrett was coming to de-install the electricity for a new disposal. While there, we discussed the possibility of new accent lighting. We both agreed on a price and Garrett ran the required wires for the accent lighting. He also removed the electricity for the disposal, and checked / marked the circuit breaker box for de-activation when the granite / splash was to be installed. Coordination was made at that time for Garrett to return on Dec 21 to re-connect everything. As it turned out, we both had overlooked the stovetop. With the granite due to be installed the following day, I made an emergency call to Garrett to remove the electricity for the stovetop. Garrett didn't mind and showed up, as promised, on time (very punctual) and removed the power. Again, coordination was made to come back and re-install everything once complete. Due to other contractors set backs, I had to contact Garrett and re-schedule a week later. Garrett was going on vacation (Christmas time) but assurred me he would be back in town on Friday, and that he personally wanted to finish the job as he knew exactly what was to be done - not delegating it out to his employees. Again, Garrett was punctual. He reconnected power to the disposal, completed the installation of the accent lighting (which adds a great touch to the cabinets), hard wired the new stove top into place (required running additional wiring) and re-installed / checked all power outlets on the new splash. No money was exchanged until the last day - each of us trusting in the other. Garrett, and Martin Electrical, are true professionals. I am happy we found them and I assure anyone reading this review, you cannot go wrong with Garrett. He delivers on every promise he made and ensured total and complete satisfaction before leaving. I WILL use Martin Electrical again should the need / necessity ever occur. Thank you Garrett for the work performed!! You have become "our" new electrician!!
Description of Work: De-installation of a sink disposal; Removing the hard wire electrical from an electric stovetop; Installing cabinet accent lighting (includes running new wires and installation of a plug on the cabinet, with 3-way touch activation); Re-installation of the power on the disposal; hard wiring a new stovetop; Re-installation of all power outlets

The experience was excellent. We were on a short time frame for closing. Garrett worked us into his busy schedule on short notice for a complete electrical inspection for a property we were looking at purchasing. Electrical inspections are so much more detailed than what a normal home inspector covers. I didn't get an electrical inspection on my first home I purchased, however after seeing Garret's findings; I will have one done from this point forward on any others properties I purchase. Garrett found an additional $2,800 worth of important wiring work that needed to be done. This helped us renegotiate our purchase price and get additional repairs completed before we closed. Garrett was on time, very professional, and even had the inspection report back late that night as he knew we were pressed for time. After we move in, we will definitely be using Martin Electrical for some wiring projects I would like completed. Would definitely recommend.

The install went very good. He arrived on time and finished the install on time. He answered all my questions and was not pushy. I will be recommending him to all my friends and believe its a good company and every one should give them a call to experience the service for themselves. I sure will be calling them for future installs and electrical needs. Other companies get so busy and annoyed with questions, but not Garrett Martin. He was very patient as I had other contractors coming in for quotes for other jobs the same day. He showed respect to my house and cleaned everything on his departure. Thank you and keep up the good work!
Description of Work: Excellent service! Contacted Garrett (the owner) to wall mount a 55 inch TV. He was able to sqeeze me in within 5 days of my initial call. Answered to all my emails and phone questions prior to the install. Provided excellent and fast customer service.

This is an excellent company I will gladly use again as needed and recommend to others. Initially used a special promotion deal for an hour of electrical work ($99), then made another appointment for some additional jobs and to securet estimates for some future work as well. Regular rate is more than fair, the promotion value was excellent. The electrician arrived on time, was courteous and willing to answer questions, worked efficiently and quickly. Everything was completed on time and has worked well.
Description of Work: Completed: *Took down dining room light fixture. *Mounted new dining room light fixture, which needed extra bracing due to size/weight. *Installed dimmer switch for new light fixture. *Installed dimmer switch in hall bathroom. *Installed fan switch in 2 bedrooms to allow speed control from wall rather than chain on ceiling fan. *Replaced light switch in living room. *Adjusted outdoor security light with photo/motion sensor. Advised: *Use lithium batteries for 10 years of never having the smoke alarms beep. *Buy a combo fan and light dimmer with remote--cheaper than 2 seperate wall controls and you get a remote! He even looked up the exact part for me on the Home Depot website. *Multiple options for lights and ceiling fans on pergola and also for backyard fountain.

Martin Electric is a fine company. Garrett was very prompt and professional. The job ended up entailing slightly more than originally thought. However, the additional $80 charge (beyond my Angie's List price) was certainly not unfair, considering materials and additional time needed for the fix. It's funny but sometimes the small things say the most about a company. I noticed that all the screws on the outlets were perfectly straight and even. That's what I call attention to detail. It's hard to find a reputable electrical company you can trust. Garrett blew me away and I will definitely call him and Martin Electric with any future electrical needs.
Description of Work: Assessment of multiple outlets with no power and rewiring of outlets to the main electrical box.

Did a great job, and quickly.
Description of Work: He replaced a shower faucet that had been damaged beyond a simple "Home Depot" replacement. And had an hour left over to swap out the kitchen sink (literally) with a new replacement. Those 2 jobs would have taken me most of a day if I even had the wherewithall to attempt them. Money very well spent!

This is a busy time of the year but Garrett worked my job in. A day before the appointment, I had something else I wanted done. Garrett happily added it to the work order. Garrett arrived on time and completed the work in the estimated time period. I really appreciate contractors that perform in this manner. I will use Martin Electrical Systems again and highly recommend them.

Did a great job. I didn't realized it but I was outside of their usual area. Sixty miles outside to be exact. However, since I had purchased the deal they showed up and did the job without any gritching or boaning, or extra fees. Not only that, but I had asked them to install something that they couldn't install because my AC unit was too old, so they didn't charge me for the window ac unit. superb experience.
Description of Work: installed AC unit in window. Installed TV Monitor on the wall and hooked up cable/dvd/stereo etc

Garrett arrived right on schedule and went straight to work, locating the breaker switch and replacing the outlet that had burned out. He showed me the replacement was current code and looked different from the previous outlet. He even recommended an extension that was light sensitive and had a timer for outdoor lighting. He had no trouble coming on a Sunday which was above and beyond for my convenience.
Description of Work: Replace an outdoor outlet that had burned out. It had been poorly installed by siding workers and was loose in the outlet and had "exploded,"

Martin Electrical Systems is awesome! I called them on a Friday morning and they were in my home the next day (Saturday) at 7:00 AM! I was having furniture delivered that day, and Garrett from Martin Electrical Systems arrived early to move and mount a flat screen TV on a different wall, before the furniture arrived. This is fantastic customer service! Not only did he do a great job, the coupon on Angie's List saved me a lot of money. I was so impressed, I asked Garrett if he could come back again soon and fix some recessed can lights in my kitchen that keep blnking off. Garrett quickly assessed the situation and suggested I switch from halogen lights to incandescents, to reduce heat build-up. I did this later in the day and the lights are fixed! I will definitely be using Garrett (a certified master electrician) and Martin Electrical Systems in the future -- highly recommended, A+ rating.

I received an Angie's list 'deal' via email. Before I purchased this "deal" I contacted the company to if they were able to assist. I was told that I would have to pay an extra service fee, because of my locale. The 'deal' doesn't mention that, in fact that would not be a 'deal' ... I understand service providers may have limits on their travel, but that should be in the 'deal', and he mentioned to me that he would be very close to my home and could come today, yet I would be charged extra. That's no deal.

We are very sorry that you feel that way The deal two hours of electrical work for $99 which is a very good deal and yes it is stated in the deal there is a service charge for any customers over 30 miles outside of Agyle. Your address is almost 50 Miles from our shop. we try to be very fair with every deal we offer and are very sorry you thought a charge of $30 is too much to drive almost 100 miles round trip.

The project was seamless they started work the day I accepted the bid they said it would take 2 days and it only took a day and a half. These guys dress very clean and are very well educated in there field. They drive nice clean trucks and didn't leave a mess in my house they went above and beyond on everything they did from labeling of all the wires to tie wrapping and bundeling the wires to make my setup look neat.
Description of Work: These guys are great very professional and show up early every time. I was really impressed in there knowledge of audio/Video. They ended up installing 4 light fixtures and troubleshooting 2 tripped breakers. They also replaced 1 GFCI and hooked up my surround sound and calibrated it for me. There pricing was great there estimate for all this work was $483 Cheaper than Star powers Bid to hook up the surround alone.
