It was good. They came right out and fixed it. It didn't take them long to find the problem and it was okay. It was as advertised. The workers were professional and clean cut.

It did not go. I contacted CB Electric and spoke to a gal who transferred me over to another gal who took my information and was to give it to a fella who was to call me back after lunch. I never received a phone call until 2 days later after which I already had the work completed by another electrician who responded in a more timely fashion.

Response from C & B Electric
Sorry for your experience sir- I showed we were called out and you were given an onsite estimate the same day. Maybe there is some confusion on our end I guess..

They're great. They are the ones that my builder used for my house. When I moved in I used another electrician I used before. However, he messed something up, and so I didn't know who to contact and I decided I would try C & B. I was real happy with the guy who came out. The cost was high. I had talked to them in advance about that. The workers are great. I've used them about three different times and Alex is the one for this area. One time when I called he was on vacation, so I got another guy and he was great too. So, I really like them a lot.
Description of Work: He came out to install an app on my phone for outside lighting.

It was not so great. I was very confused by what I purchased. All I purchased was a diagnostic. It was very misleading to me. All I paid was for them to come out and say "Yup. This is the problem." I will not use them again. It was literally for a diagnostic and that was it. It was wasted. I was very disappointed. It was very misleading. They came out quickly when I called them.
Description of Work: I purchased a big deal for C & B Electric.

The electrician pulled a $199 "diagnostic fee" out of nowhere. And then to actually fix the problem? Well, that's extra. I definitely would not recommend them.

Never communicated to me that they would not be able to perform work when they were scheduled to arrive. Received quote only, and was told they'd have to schedule a return for the work. Still have not received that call and it has been three business days. On top of that the techs used the restroom in the vacant home which had no running water and left it in the toilet. I found it 2 days later and had to go to the store to buy gallons of water to flush it. Very disrespectful to a customer.

We had a very poor experience. The electrician who came out, Joel, did a very poor job of planning. He made 4 holes in our drywall in order to run wiring, and only ended up requiring one of them, so that we had to pay extra later for the drywall repair. This was despite advise from my wife before he started working. He also did not clean up after himself. First, he did not wear shoe covers when working in our house. Second, he did not put any tarp or other covering on the floor under where he was working, so that all of the drywall dust fell directly onto the floor, which has been very difficult to clean up. He made only one attempt to clean up the drywall dust himself, using our vacuum cleaner (which ruined it, as it did not have the power for the job). We were left with the job of cleaning up all of the dust after him, and we still have not been able to get all of it out of our hardwood floor. He did an adequate job installing a flood light in our backyard. We do feel, however, that he overcharged for the work that he did.

They were ok. You know what they did was an hour or 2 hours of work. The guy put in..and I thought It was one plug would do the trick for that amount if so he did it in about 20 minutes. So I said oh my gosh you are done so soon could you do another outlet for me and he said no, you’d have to pay for another hour of work. I thought well that’s not fair because I already paid for more time than he had worked. That’s the only complaint I have. He was clean, very efficient but he just didn’t want to do anymore work. I probably won’t use him again. I was buying it for the amount of time and not the project. What he did was perfect and he was clean and everything. They were here right when they said they were going to be.

It went very well. He called 45 minutes before he arrived to let me know he was on his way. He was very professional and helpful. He repaired a 3 prong outlet that the dryer plugs into. It was loose. I purchased a deal on Angie's List for $200 of electrical service for $200 of electrical services. I feel like it was a good deal. The outlet works well now.

The service was good. They were rushing. So, I wish they were not rushing through it and they told me I just can do it by myself. They were out for like 30 minutes. They were rushing through everything to get out of there.

I wanted to get some new porch lamps installed. I had a pair that was there. So I purchased a deal to have this company come and replace them. I had purchased the lamps ahead of time. The gentleman came and was very cordial and got them both put up in about 30 minutes. I thought I would not have to pay any more since I had paid $200 for the deal on Angie's List. But then I had to pay and extra $50. The gentleman did a super job but I am not sure I would want to call them again because I felt it was a little expensive. If someone else disagrees, this company is the one for you!

Called C&B to fix short in wire to dishwasher by installing new outlet. Purchased $200 worth of services for $110. They wanted $149 to identify the problem (which I had already identified to them when they arrived) and then antoerh $150 to install the outlet. About 45 minutes of total work with two guys. The two guys were extremely rude and argued loudly between the two of them while onsite about how to do the install. Expensive and unprofessional service.
