Daryl Howard - Master Electrician Inc

The experience was very pleasant. See above description of the full story.

Something that he took care of was not working properly. I called him back and told him that he needed to come back and look at it. He left a message saying that he could not tell me whether he would be charging me again and that it would depend on what the problem was. I was not home when I received that message. I left a message back saying that it should be under warranty, and that if he planned on charging me he need not bother coming back. I left a message saying that I wanted him to call me, but he never did. I never heard from him at all. He had a very high rating, but I wouldn't use him again because he wouldn't stand behind his work. The part that he put in is totally broke. I had to go and get a part from a fan store. He installed another fan and did really good work, but it's a shame that he didn't have enough business sense to correct a problem on something that he had just worked on. It wasn't very good customer service. I would've used him again and I would have recommended him to people had he followed up. I was very dissatisfied. His price was reasonable, but he just didn't stand behind his work.

Overall, it was probably a fair price, but more than I had hoped to pay (especially given the estimate), but seems to be a job very well done. Didn't have any problems contacting Darrell and arrival for estimate and for work were both right on schedule.

Daryl came over on the scheduled day and looked at the breaker box. He told me the ballpark figure of the work to be done but said he would email me an estimate. He did and I agreed that it was a very fair price. I choose the best day available for me the following week, he had an opening, and the appointment was scheduled. His partner and his helper showed up on the appointed day and did the work in a timely and friendly, professional manner. This is a company I will definitely use again if the need arises. Great communication, fair prices, quality work, and friendly owner/employees!

He knows his job well and he did an excellent job. He was reasonably priced. His crew was capable and excellent. He was flexible and worked with me. He provided some valuable advice and suggestions. I liked his services and will use the same in future.

Our house was built in the early 50's and I had tried to some of the work myself to save some cash. However, the previous owners had butchered some of the wiring and I realized that the task was above my skill level. I set up an appointment after work to meet up and go over what I wanted done. Mr. Howard was not able to make the initial appointment because he was trying to restore power to a client's house that was out due to the snow storms that we had. Rescheduled for that Saturday. We discussed the work to be done and he emailed me a bid that I agreed to. The work was done the following Monday. I am extremely happy with the results. Price includes labor and materials.

I had called Daryl to have 3 light fixtures fixed. When his two guys arrived, they were very nice, very efficient and did what I needed them to do, including running to the hardware store to buy replacement parts. They also probably saved me from a house fire because on one of the fixtures, the connections were pretty "fried."

THE ONLY ELECTRICIAN YOU WILL EVER NEED - The only problem I can see with Daryl Howard, Master Electrician, is that his work and professionalism will soon make him so popular, he'll be too busy to take on new customers. First, I'm a stickler for promptness, neatness, competency and completion of a job on time and on budget...I got all of these from Daryl and his crew. All were focused on the job at hand. very quick and efficient. What was originally expected to take two days was completed in one! This is the real deal: promptness, neatness, competent, efficient, honest and great price. What else could you ask for? So, keep Daryl Howard, Master Electrician's number handy...but don't wait too long to call, because if the work he did for us is any indication, he'll soon be too busy for new customers! Thanks to you and your crew, Daryl. A great experience.

Apointment was set for 2pm. The morning of the appointment, they called and asked if they could come early. I said yes. He arrived right on time. The workman was professional and efficient. I showed him the problem, he replaced one breaker and was gone. 30 minutes max. The only issue I have is he installed a used breaker, which he sold to us at a discounted price. However, my husband was later able to find the same breaker at Home Depot, NEW, for the same price he sold us the used breaker.

Daryl is helping me with a kitchen remodel. The first big part is upgrading the electrical panel. I wanted someone who is knowledgeable and neat, and Daryl is both! He is also extremely professional and easy to work with. He always takes time to answer questions and put my mind at ease during this project, which is why I will be calling him back again and again.

Overall it went very well. I contacted Daryl Howard and set up an appointment in order for him to take a look at the project. He showed up as scheduled and provided a time and material estimate. The work was scheduled and completed in less time than he had estimated. My project was a little different in that I had already done a lot of the work but was unable to finish it on my own in a timely manner. All of the work was performed safely and professionally. There may be less expensive contractors around but when it comes to electrical work, quality and knowledge are the most important factors. Daryl Howard is the master electrician

It went excellently. They were on time, very professional, very knowledgeable, and have become our go-to electrician from now on.

It went very well and I will be calling Mr. Howard next month to install a microwave and two new outlets.

Called Daryl and left message. He called back by close of business the same day. He came out the following day (Friday) to assess the problem. Gave me his hourly rate, and told him I had one more estimate to get on Monday. Other company failed miserably to be a responsible business owner. Called Daryl back Monday morning and hired him. We set up for Thursday, July 8. We didn't connect unfortunately. My fault completely. We rescheduled for Tuesday the 13th. He arrived at 10am, figured out the problems, and went to pick up the switches I picked out. He was back within 30 minutes, and was done by 1:30p. I am completely satisfied. He is fantastic, and will hire him again for some other future work that will need to be done. He is MY electrician. Hire him... he knows what he is doing, and he is a nice guy, and very personable. You will be glad you did. Thank you Daryl!

Daryl and his assistant arrived when he said they would. They operated in a very professional fashion, completed the work in an organized and neat manner, and performed the project within the time frame that was set. Everything was installed to my expectations which is something many people do not do these days. Daryl knows the electrical code and follows it to keep his installations safe and functional. I would highly recommend Daryl for anyone needing electrical work and I will be calling him again in the near future for some more work that I need to have done. Thank you Daryl, see you soon.

Daryl and assistant were professional. Were on time. Very courteous. Very neat; cleaned up areas at the end of each day. At end of project, Daryl and assistant walked me through each room explaining work done and gave instructions with demonstrations on how to operate new lights, switches, etc.

We haven't used him yet, but we do have him scheduled. He seemed very knowledgeable and experienced. (Updated, 6/16/10) He gave a great estimate and kept in touch. I had to reschedule and we worked out a new date. Arrived on time. Very professional and courteous.

He and his friend came out and I can only give them the highest praise. They did an excellent job and had a good price.

Mr. Howard cheerfully came out on a Saturday morning (Memorial Day weekend!) after I told him that the men working on our air conditioner told us they saw a problem with an electrical box in the attic. He quickly diagnosed and fixed the problem. We have already arranged to have him come repair a ceiling fan and a light fixture. All in all, an excellent experience.

Daryl did everything he said. was on time and on budget. I will be using him in the future

This is approximately the fourth time that I have used Daryl Howard's service. His associate Justin performed the work. Daryl responds promptly to calls. Justin arrives on time and does the work efficiently. The area where he works is cleaner when he leaves than it was when he arrived. Although I have been home while the work has been completed I would have absolutely no problem leaving Justin here or leaving a key for him. I highly recommend Daryl Howard and his associates.

I needed a ceiling fan installed in my downstairs living room which required running power for the electrical box to the middle of the ceiling. Mr. Howard came to look at things and gave an estimate, including explanations of anticipated problems. Well when they opened my ceiling up, they found it was full of these bizarre concrete blocks, and most electricians would have given up and cut giant chunks out of my ceiling's drywall, but Mr. Howard and his assistant worked around it and hung my ceiling fan perfectly without having to resort to that. And they laid down plastic and didn't make a mess at all. He arrived on time, was super nice and professional, and is obviously very experienced and knowledgeable. Would definitely hire again!

Great response. More than reasonable cost. My property manger who had to let the electrician in was impressed, and that's hard to achieve! Near instantaneous response time and quick fix. All electrical power restored to wall outlets and fan working again. Wil definitely call again if I need an electrician.

He showed up on time and did a good job. He was reasonable with his price. I would hire him again.

Overall was great. I saw his name in Angie's List, saw a high score and close to my area, so I called for an estimate appointment. He was on time, gave the estimate, and we agreed on a service date. On the service date, I was unfortunately 10-15 minutes late getting home on time to meet him, but he started right away. I was able to be right there watching all services performed (I probably got in his way sometimes) but he was very professional and discussed any thing with me that needed my decision. No problems at all!
