The Poston electricians were very courteous, hardworking and efficient. They repositioned a baseboard heater, added two electrical outlets indoors, one outdoors, and added a porch light, drilling through masonry. They could have cut holes in the drywall but instead persevered crawling into the crawlspace (which I would not do in a 100 years) to drop a line instead of tearing up drywall. They charged me 1/3 of the price another contractor was trying to charge. I was so pleased I gave the workers a sizable tip. I was so very pleased with the work that I felt the need to comment again. I will be contacting them again for any work on my home and will recommend them to friends and neighbors.

Poston Electrical will not work in my home again. First visit: they broke a water pipe for the bath vanity and flooded the room. They did not know where the water cut-off was and if someone had not been at home to react and cut the water off the results would have been even worst. One their second visit, 09/24/14, the two individuals who installed lights and fans were rude and arrogant. They had to cut holds in the drywall to install two lights, one in the ceiling and one over the vanity. Where the dust and debris fell is where it was left; on the sink, floor, toilet and walls. In the attic they had to move the insulation to cut a hole in the ceiling. The insulation was not put back in place and they left their trash, plastic bag, nuts, bolts (varying installation items) lying on the floor. They had no respect for my home or the resident. Since they were not hired or scheduled directly by me I cannot comment on pricing.
Description of Work: Poston was hired thru the general contracting performing renovation of two bathrooms in my home. Scope of work included demo of existing fixtures and fans, installing new.

Response from POSTON ELECTRICAL CONTRACTING INC
First of all I'm sorry you feel this way. The water pipe was a very brittle pipe and was struck by pure accident. After talking to my men it did not flood the room and justin had the knowledge to repair the pipe on the spot. As for my men being rude and not cleaning up you again are wrong. All of my employees are young Christian men and we pride ourselves in cleaning up the job site when we a through. You are the first customer in 15 years to complain about any of my employees being rude. A simple phone call to me voicing your concerns would have been the right way to handle this situation. After talking to the contractor on site he told me he moved the insulation and was going to put it back. Again let me say I'm sorry you feel the way you do. Please call me if you would like to discuss this any further I look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely David Poston

David was punctual, professional and very efficient. He came out about 2 weeks ago to give me an estimate and we discussed the project, he agreed with what i wanted and gave me a fair price. This price included me digging the trenches necessary for the wire. After getting the pool installed , i called him to come out and do the work. He showed up on a Saturday on time and ready to go. They were in and out in about an hour and i couldn' be happier withthe job they did. I highly recommend David for any electrical work. About 2 weeks after the work was performed, the outlet didn't work anymore. I called David on a Sunday night and told him what had happened, he said he would have someone out first thing Monday. They came by on Monday AM and he checked the outlet, said it was a bad GFI. He changed it out in no time, no charge. Extremely pleased with the response time and professionalism!
Description of Work: Run electricity to my above ground pool.

The process was seamless from start to finish. David was professional from the first phone call to the finished job. Other electricians wanted to charge a bundle to replace the entire electrical panel. David said that was unneseccary and provided an alternative solution that saved us hundreds of dollars. The job was completed on a Saturday morning, before some of the other contractors I called had even returned my phone call.
Description of Work: Converted our well pump to 220. Installed new 220 outlet, reconfigured electrical panel to accomodate.

I like everything about David. He is prompt, he is reliable, he is honest, he is reasonable, and he is competent. He is a licensed electrician. He is a very conscientious fellow. I would highly recommend him. The previous job also went very well. He is probably not the lowest pricewise. I have used him many times and I would use him again in the future.
Description of Work: Poston Electrical Contracting came out about a year ago on a service call for a very small job. He has done the electrical portion of a major house remodel for me in the past.

They were here first thing in the morning, just as promised. Went right to work, and were finished quickly.
Description of Work: Hooked up a circuit I ran in my crawl space for a new dehumidifier. They installed a new GFCI breaker (which I gave them), replacing a spare breaker in my service panel, landed the new circuit, and tested out the connection.

The entire job took two days for several men to complete. I felt that the company is very honest and reliable. They came back when the city inspector came to examine everything.
Description of Work: Poston installed a new panel, lighting fixtures, a 200 outlet, and new receptacles. They also repaired some wiring.
