The lighting system over our kitchen island consists of several pendants suspended from a rail attached to a canopy containing a transformer. When the system failed, it took several days to figure out that the transformer was to blame. It took several more days to locate a replacement part. Once that arrived, we realized that the wall switch was inappropriate for use with the transformer. Eventually all parts were on site and we contacted PK Electric to install them. The electrician arrived exactly at the time specified, obviously was skilled at his trade, and completed the work in slightly over an hour. We were very satisfied with this firm..
Description of Work: Removed and replaced switch and transformer for low voltage lighting system.

the service person seemed very amateurish and diagnosed my problem as the worse case (and most expensive) scenario. In the end what I determined was it was the city problem and several people on my block unbeknownst to me were having the same problem. I was upset that this provider never considered this and went to the most expensive solution.
Description of Work: Their diagnosis and solution for my problem was completely wrong and required huge amount of money.

Overall the work that was done was really good. I was happy with the work. The bad things were he did not call before showing up, He made a mess and did not clean it all up and I thought the price was a little high. I said no for using the provider again but if they could work on those issues that happened then I would prouably use them again.
Description of Work: He ran some electrical for my new gas insert.

PK Electric is always my electrical company of choice I spoke to a representative at a Seattle number). They are very reasonably priced. I received a quote for $1200. for the work they did for $550. John, the PK electrician, has done work before in my home. He is quick, efficient, neat, courteous and does a professional job... what more can I say. This company belongs at the top of Angie's List; I'm surprised they are not. I recommend this company as the top in electrical work!

Can't recommend PK Electric enough. Used them months ago for a ceiling fan install and it went smoothly. I've used other companies in the past and PK Electric was by far the best. They are very easy to get a hold of, are able to make appointments in a quick time frame, and the electricians are friendly and knowledgeable, show up on time (or early) and do a great job. You don't have to worry about scheduling, call backs, outrageous costs, showing up on time, etc. which are all problems I've had with other companies. Cost seems competitive. I'll certainly continue to use them in the future.
Description of Work: Installed two ceiling fans where there were none previously; installed dimmer switches; ran new line in garage and installed two outlets in garage; installed two new outlets in office

The first system installed did not have a long enough range. They came back and installed a new set for the price of exchange of equipment. The second appt was broken several times before the installer came. They did not charge for the second appointment. They responded to the concept that I was looking for a performance criteria not just a light.

I haven't really used anybody else. But they have been good, punctual and courteous. I would recommend them.
Description of Work: I have been using PK Electric many times. They rewired the house and they also put in a lot of the connections for computer systems. They also did low voltage lights in our driveway. They added some fixtures around the switches.

I called PK Electric and was able to have someone come the following day to install a ceiling fan in my office. The electrician was on-time, friendly, and performed the work in a reasonable amount of time. I will likely use them again for more electrical work.

We needed to move an electrical conduit so that we could have kitchen cabinets installed. The contractor worked diligently in a difficult space, and did excellent work. The result is exactly what we desired, and nothing got damaged in the process.

I found him difficult to converse with - he's very quiet. I had a number of questions about different options and he didn't seem to want to discuss them. After he left, I had another company come out to give an estimate. They had a different plan that I liked better (it would have looked nicer) so I contacted Scott and asked him about doing it that way. He noted the difficulty with it and I noted the other company's proposed solution to that problem and expressed interest in getting an estimate from him for that. It took him several days to send an estimate and it was for his original plan, not the plan we found more appealing. In the end, we got a 3rd company out to give an estimate. That company was very willing to discuss alternative options and were able to provide a solution that didn't involve running pipes outside my house.
Description of Work: We wanted a 240V line to our garage to charge our new electric car. He came out and looked at the meter main, the breaker box, and the house and took measurements to give us an estimate on running a line from the panel in the basement, outside the house, and up to the garage. It took several days to receive the estimate but it was in line with others we received.

I called them three or four times and each time they said that they couldn't help me at the normal rate and that I would have to pay the expensive "after hours" rate. I feel that, as a consumer, I was being ripped off.

This is a small company and very easy to deal with. The problem I had was pretty simple but they did the work promptly and at a fair price. I would use them again.
Description of Work: We lost electrical power in one bedroom--there was a burning smell but I could not locate the source. PK came out the same day and took care of it. It turned out to be defective wiring in a light fixture. This was repaired. I then decided to replace five ceiling light fixtures so I called them a second time to replace those fixtures.

Poorly. Extremely unprofessional.
Description of Work: This Company sent its lead estimator out to our business. He performed a visual inspection and took some time to understand our needs. He promptly provided us with an estimate, though not the lowest, it was within range and acceptable. A day or two later, I called and was unable to reach the same estimator. Subsequent calls I made to the Company were not returned by the Company. I will not do business with them, ever.

The company took the time to understand our requests. Adding electrical service to the dock was tricky. The team considered options and made the final selection based on needs and presentation. The electricians added outlets in our home and repaired our driveway rockery lights. We would hire them again without hesitation.

Eugene did a great job and I have asked PK to allow him back when I do our laundry room. Eugene arrived early and was nice enough to wait in his truck. I saw that he was here 15 min early, but we were up so I went and allowed him to come in. He is very friendly, offered to remove his shoes - I told him to just clean his feet in and out but we had hard wood floors so I wasn't too concerned. He made friends with our little dog right away, who then wanted to follow him around. I explained the job - he went right up into the attack to find the location of the old fans in the two bathrooms. Pour guy, the attic is only 1/2 accessible down the center - he had to get down on his hands and knees and crawl around the insulation to where we thought the bathroom ceilings were to find the old fan boxes. This took a while. I moved on with other things and trusted Eugene to keep doing what he needed to do. He went up and down a few times, but eventually got to work installing each fan. They each took over an hour. (Honestly, I thought the price expensive...just to put in a fan? BUT, even though I still think electrical prices in general are too high because they know it's an expertise you need...I WAS willing to see that it takes more effort and know how than I thought and I'm glad my husband didn't tackle it :) I was most appreciative for Eugene helping me understand the dilemma with the light scones I wanted to put in. Since the original hole was not center - if I put one scone over the 2nd mirror and sink - I would HAVE to repair the original hole and he would have to make a new hole properly centered. OH! I did not want that added expense of ruining a wall and needing a drywaller. So Eugene explained that they make updated cool looking enough track lighting that has moveable lights on them AND a moveable connection box - SO without having to fix the wall at all - he could put the connection off center and STILL center the lights properly over each mirror and each sink. OH! (female alert - I would not have known that). Eugene was gracious to have his lunch in his truck while I ran back to the store to replace the light fixtures. Worked out great. I so appreciated Eugene that I asked to have him back on our next project. Thanks Eugene.
Description of Work: New Fans installed in both bathrooms (one with light, one without). Installer had to rummage through piped in insulation in the attack to find the two bathrooms and fan boxes in the ceilings. Put in new light fixture above bathroom sink. The previous was long track lighting and the hole in the wall was not positioned properly in the center of the two sinks. The installer had to explain to me and wait for me to go replace the lights I had purchased for an updated track that allows the connection box and the lights to be moveable and placed where you need them - in this case, the box is connected to the wall a little off center - but the lights themselves could be adjusted perfectly two over each mirror centered on the sinks. You don't even notice that the wall connection is a little off center.

Very smoothly, no issues or problems.
Description of Work: Had to have a 60amp circuit line installed for a heat pump power source--this involved combining/consolidating some existing breakers in the electrical box (there was no room), running a line approx. 60ft under a crawl space, terminating in a electrical box/switch outside on the side of the home. 2 electricians showed up on time, and work was completed promptly. Price was very reasonable as well, would not hesitate to use again for any future work.

The workers arrived on time. We went over the work to be done and they began doing the work right away. The garage work required the removal of some peg board and other coverings. These panels were carefully replaced when they had finished working. All work was completed on the same visit and they cleaned everything up. I could hardly tell they had even been there. Both workers were polite and professional and I was quite comfortable with the work they had done. The finished work invoice was almost exactly the same as the estimated costs and there were no surprises. I was very pleased with the work and the overall experience.
