Operator took all my info and make estimate appointment over phone re estimate. Then said it would be $38 for a service call even on job quotes. As I was seeking plumbing and electrical work, they would only charge me one $38 fee instead of two as it would be two different people making the estimations. I voiced my surprise at this fee and that I felt trapped into keeping the appointments. I could have declined, but I did not. Estimators were very professional and gave me quote on-site.
Description of Work: $38 just to step foot in my house. Prices quoted for plumbing and electrical work were 2-3x other quotes (I obtain a minimum of 3 quotes for all work).

Response from Ostrom Electrical Plumbing Heating & Air
We are sorry you felt you could not decline our estimate appointment. We pride ourselves on always explaining up front any charge we have and we never pressure anyone. There are many different types of companies doing home repairs and upgrades, some companies have low overhead and low prices because they do not offer benefits to there employees, they do not carry all the appropriate insurances, they do not stand behind there work with great warranties, some do not even have contractor or trade licenses for the work they preform. Our prices are competitive when we are compared to companies who like us provide benefits and training to our employees, hold all the appropriate licenses, carry workers comp and liability insurance, and stand behind our work with great warranties. You will find that all of our customers always give us 5 star rating for our service and work performed, we always send professional techs to serve our customers who have been background checked and drug screened.

Technician was very knowledgable and polite. I had just moved to Roanoke from out of state. Needed 3 ceiling fan/lights installed to replace light fixtures. All three needed ceiling fan boxes installed. The work was well done. However, it cost $300 per fixture to have installed. Due to time constraints and not knowing the area, I went ahead and had the work done.

They showed up on time which is very important to me. Many contractors make you wait for hours. Jason was very friendly and chatty. He pointed out potential issues at the time he provided the estimate, and gave us various options for the repairs. The work was done in a timely manner, and the price was as estimated. Overall, I think the price was a little expensive for the amount of the work which was ultimately involved, but I did not obtain other estimates so it is hard to judge. I would hire this company again.

Beautiful! Daniel did a wonderful job. He was respectful, informative, very helpful and very thorough. Every test performed was explained. I even signed on with Ostrom in the event of future electrical problems. And Ostrom sent me a card thanking me for using their services. It is I who am sooooo thankful for their quick, efficient, service. I Thank them and wholeheartedly recommend them for everyones electrical needs.
Description of Work: Daniel came in and put on his protective shoe coverings and explained why. He took a look at every "problem" I perceived and explained everything every step of the way . He replaced flood lights, indoor light, a switch in the pool electrical box and explained what every light switch in my house was connected to.

Ostrom was the highest bidder on the project (required because we were putting central air/heat pumps into our 70 year-old house). I suspect at least a couple of the other bidders could have done as good a job, but from the office experience, to the estimate, to the actual work, Ostrom was extremely professional, neat and timely. The estimator also oversaw the two-day job and was extremely easy to work with. Everything went smoothly, with power off for most of the first day (upgrading the service panel), but none the second (running the power supply for the new heat pumps, which were not yet installed). Only hiccup was that the city inspector required the placement of the new outdoor outlets near the neat pumps (which had cutoff boxes already installed) as part of new code requirements that had only been in effect for about a month, as I understand. So, that meant a quick trip back (and an additional $160 payment) to take care of that. Can't say enough about the neatness, dedication and hard work of the crew. Highly recommended.
Description of Work: Upgraded service panel from 100 amps to 200 amps; ran power lines for two new heat pumps and air handlers (one in basement and one in attic); added three electrical outlets in workshop; and added GFI outlets outside near heat pumps.

His estimate was outrageous. He was $2,000 more than the company that I'm using now. He was very responsive and came out when he said he would. He walked through the house and did get the estimate to me quickly.

Response from Ostrom Electrical Plumbing Heating & Air
The member had an extensive list of work she needed done, we priced this work in a fair manner, keep in mind our electricians are experienced, licensed, background checked, drug screened and well trained. We would get a permit for the job as required by state law, and we would warranty our work for 5 years. Many of our competitors are not fully insured, they do not get required permits and frequently do not complete the jobs in a timely manor. This is exactly why Angies List is so popular. In order to stand behind our work with a satisfaction guarantee and provide our customers with the top quality service they deserve you must understand our cost of doing business is greater. We will from time to time here of a very low priced quote, most likely by someone trying to get some quick cash to pay a bill. Respectfully, D.J. Ostrom, Jr Owner Ostrom Electrical

I had multiple electrical issues with a rental property and they were very prompt and professional in arranging with my tenant appointments to look at everything for an estimate as well as the repairs.

I was very pleased with this company and plan on using them for any future repairs. They also recommended a plumber to me and we were very pleased with him as we

George was the technician who was assigned to my job. He was very professional and personal . Upon arrival I was impressed that he put on shoe protectors on not to dirty up my hardwood floors, I knew then that this was a whole new experience for me, in the past I have had work done where others had no regard for my home. To sum it up they exceeded my expectations, which almost never happens. I will tell all my friends and associated about my experience.
Description of Work: They installed 9 new receptacles on two new circuits in my basement, ran a new light where there was non in my dining room and installed a can light in entry foyer.

They spent quite a bit of time looking at the situation and tried several different methods to correct it. None of them were successful. They then said that they were sorry and that I would need the services of a heating and air-conditioning contractor. I actually needed the services of an HVAC person. The electrician that came was excellent. I would consider using them again in the future for another project or another quote.

Ostrom Electrical came out the same day and installed the outlet for almost half of what I was going to pay. The gentleman arrived at my home within two hours of calling. He even put covers over his shoes to keep from dirtying the floor... I couldn't believe it! The outlet was installed and it looked like it had always been there. The electrician was extremely nice and even vacuumed around his work area. I could not have been more impressed! Great Value, Great Service! I am not sure of all the areas that they service but if you live the the Roanoke Valley and need electrical work then at least give this company a call first.
Description of Work: I wanted to install my flat panel TV above our fireplace in the living room but needed an outlet for the power. A local electronics store offered to have one installed for $289.00 and it would take a week before they could arrive. Frustrated and tired of watching the TV on the floor I called a friend who gave me the number to Ostrom Electrical. I called them at 10:00 a.m. They were at my house around noon.

We had a lot of odds and ends electrical needs (outlets installed, phone jacks activated etc.). George was our service technician. He was not only prompt and efficient, but really nice as well. We will be using Ostrom Electrical again in the very near future to assemble and install an outdoor light fixture. We're very pleased to have found this company.

It went VERY well. They were polite, right on time and Daniel the tech was very helpful and offered a better solution to my problem than I had thought of. He was good enough to offer to look around and see if there was anything else that needed his attention. I was very happy with the job they all did and thought the price was fair.
