Northwest Electric & Solar

Worst Experience I've ever had with a contractor. I'm a year after they finished and plugs are falling out of the wall when I unplug things. My basement flooded as a result of them not rewiring the plug for the sump pump to the right spot, then they plugged into the spot they WERE SUPPOSED to fix the outlet (so it didn't have a GFCI reset button on the outlet) then they incorrectly marked the new panel for how to get power back on to it. There's two outlets that haven't worked since they did their job (but they;re in a part of the house they didn't work on, so they claim they're not responsible). They failed to rewire our porch light and blamed our builders for putting a nail through a wire, that was a blatant lie. The simplest things like a smurf tube they installed they failed to install an insert with a ******* hole in it so that I could pull a wire through it. They took zero responsibility for their work, even though one of their electricians told me point blank he was going to "work faster" so he could take a vacation early. Apparently his "work faster" just meant doing a **** job. Thanks for nothing NWE&S. Do not work with them unless you want to be left holding the bag to redo most of it.

Overall, an OK result and I am relatively satisfied. The primary work was done completely and to code. There was decent initial communication when setting up the job, but there were details that were not handled as discussed and post-issue communication was minimal. A relatively major code issue was noticed after the job was about 1/2 complete and should have been obvious even during the initial quote visit. They addressed this issue without effecting the quoted price, but some details of the implementation were not done as agreed and required the homeowner to perform additional work and clean-up. Owner reached out to me once, but we never got to talk. They reduced the price a bit, but not enough to cover the additional work that was required to meet the agreed upon details.

Very good , shoes up and did the work

Unfortunately, I was super disappointed by these guys. First they canceled an appointment on the day of - which was frustrating as I had to take off work to meet them. On the reschedule they showed up (yay) & seemed very knowledgeable and eager to take on the project, un-phased by the location (remote) and budget that I had given them. In fact they said that they were eager to get it done so that they could "feature the job on their website." Then I didn't hear from them for 2 months. I followed up twice as it was 4th quarter and everyone's busy - no doubt that this project was on the smaller side for them. I heard back after the 2nd follow up that they'd been working on my quote and would have something for me soon. Fast forward another 30 days (and another follow up) and they sent me a quote for 4x what my stated budget was. Overall - disappointing, misleading and total waste of time.

It went very well. I had a plumber there from a different company as the time was short and they worked together beautifully. It was done during a super busy time this summer but both companies, In House Electric and Apollo plumbing did a great job very quickly.

Everything went great; the office contacted me immediately and scheduled the service. I wasn't sure if I wanted 6 or 10 circuit, so they arrived with both. I opted for 6 circuit. He installed everything, looked good. I didn't have cable to test while he was there. The following weekend I turned off the power, and hooked up the generator and flipped power on all 6 circuits. Everything was working, and also balanced (important) between each side. Running every light, fan, furnace,TV, etc. I was only running about 2000 watts total, which was a bit surprising. I am looking forward to the power going out (only for a day or so! ), ha ha! Thanks Northwest Electric and Solar.

I would recommend this contractor based on my experience today. The lights were installed with minimum holes in my ceiling. Jeff, the electrician provided helpful tips and a referral to a drywall contractor. The lights make such a huge difference in my kitchen and helped to create more visual interest in a vast open kitchen. The pricing was VERY competitive. Thank you to Jeff and Derek for your assistance with my small project.

They were very nice about cancelling the appointment.

Showed up on time set a game plane, gave us a timeline and was done earlier then he said. Even added a fixture suggestion to make us feel more confident in our purchase. I will be using them again for a more significant electrical job soon.

The service was great. The new line had to be brought out into the back yard about 80 feet, and then hooked up to the new heat pump. Then I asked if they could also bring out a another regular electrical line so I could plug in my filter and have a space outlet in that space. It was no problem for them to redo the estimate and get both lines in. I am extremely happy with the result.

All is was well. But i think they should follow up after there repairs at some point.

He was on time, did the job and was very satisfied

Cancelled, could not agree schedule

Contractor show up up on time. was very professional. made recommendations based on needs and uses. was very professional and accomodating

Chris discussed the issue of the space heater with us and offered an alternative option, involving installing a space heater that runs on 110 volts. He covered up the holes in the wall that were left after removal of the existing space heater. He promised to e-mail us the info on the new space heater. He was friendly, professional, and tidy. He called ahead to warn us about a slight delay in his arrival time because of traffic. We are happy with his work. By the way, Jeramy at the office also does a great job with the scheduling and communication. This company gets an "A" and we will use them again in the future.

It was very disappointing to hear that the electrician couldn't do what we wanted and then wouldn't even try. Since then I am not really in favor of these coupon/deal things.

Our electrician did a great job for a very reasonable price (we got a discount for being Angie's list members). He also worked very efficiently - I was truly impressed with how fast he got things done! Everyone showed up when they said they would, cleaned up after themselves, and really made things look nice. I will absolutely go with Northwest Solar & Electric in the future!

I had already called several other companies about an electrical problem but was unable to get an appointment this week. So when I called Northwest, I was happy the person I spoke to suggested that I try some things to fix the problem before scheduling the appointment. Her suggestion worked and now I do not have to spend money on a service call for an easily fixable problem. Thanks so much!

Chris Maxwell was very quick, helpful and friendly.

They were quick, professional and efficient. Would highly recommend.

They did a good job. They ran out of 2 hours for the deal and offered the same deal to come out on a different date. They were easy to schedule with.

because of our location we are sometimes without power for days at a time. we purchased the override panel for backup with our generator. It is so nice to be able to flip a switch in the house and have the essentials (lights, heater, etc) stay on during a power outage. I recommend this to anyone who's power goes out.

They were professional and everything was done right and the price of the service was decent. The only additional costs were material costs.

Service was great. Very pleased with the service.

I hired NW Electric & Solar after purchasing one of their Big Deals on Angie's List (2 hrs for $99). One of their electricians, Jeff, arrived promptly at the scheduled time and did a very good job of installing a bathroom light fixture in the bathroom off of our kitchen. He then proceeded to install a ceiling light fixture in our laundry room which seemed to go quite well right up until the moment that he incorrectly attached the large glass shade and cracked it in half. He was apologetic and told me that he would contact me about replacing the broken glass shade. I took him at his word and expected to hear from him within a week or two. Well, that was over a year and a half ago…and I haven't heard back yet. ;) I have used NW Electric in the past and received good service from one of their other electricians, Derek, whom I would definitely recommend. However, after my disappointment with this service I have never hired them again. Jeff, was here for 1 hr and 35 min before he quickly departed assuring me that he would take care of the problem. To this day my laundry room ceiling fixture looks like bare bulbs.
