I have no reason to believe that this business doesn't do fine work, but was very disappointed in their responsiveness. I called with our problem powering the generator, indicating my suspicion that it was probably only a circuit breaker that needed replacement. I was pleasantly informed that they were backed up and I would need to wait my turn, and they couldn't estimate how long it would be because they didn't know how involved the jobs in front of me were. After four weeks I called back to make sure I remained on the list, hoping they might have a better idea of how much longer it might be. I was told we were of course on the list, that they would get back to me, and not to call back again. No estimate was given, and I felt I was being reprimanded for calling. With threatening weather eminent, I called 10 days later, left two more messages and they never called back. Got another recommendation, called another electrician (Day Road Electric - A !), who got back to me, recognized my issue was likely easy, got out within a week and replaced the circuit breaker within an hour.
Description of Work: Suspected bad circuit breaker

Work was performed professionally. Cost was based on time and materials and was close to the verbal "guesstimate". I am a repeat customer and will probably contact them for any future electrical work.
Description of Work: Installed a whole house surge protector and an outside outlet.

They answered all questions, were here on time, took great care around all the tools and existing shelves and such, worked efficiently. Very happy with the work.
Description of Work: Bird Electric wired a detached garage building to accommodate my woodworking shop. We had only 4 receptacles in the whole shop, all 110v. They added circuits and ran conduit to provide 8 more 110's and two 220V outlets.

I contacted Bird for some minor repair work that I needed to have done. They very promptly returned my call and scheduled Matt to come out and review the scope of work. After meeting with him in person, I did not receive a quote so I cannot speak to the cost or quality of their work.

All was done quickly and done well. Thanks!
Description of Work: Ahhh, the joys of buying a house and finding out what does not work. Bird replaced the bathroom fan, diagnosed and fixed a loose breaker wire that was causing all sorts of issues, and replaced a broken garage light fixture with a much needed electrical plug.

They were great to work with. Bird Electric was recommended to us by the Handyman who was working on some projects with us, and we were completely satisfied with their work, They were friendly, professional, and took care of all of the details for us. We were running the electrical lines to a different part of the property in order to put in a hot tub, and this required trenching and paperwork - they took care of all of it, and even left the grass in great condition after the trenching. I couldn't have been happier with their work. And when the pump in the water fixture stopped working again about a week after install, they came by right away to troubleshoot and get it working again... we haven't had any issues since.
Description of Work: Fixed the electrical to an outdoor water fixture's pump and ran new electric to another part of the property for an eventual hot tub

They came out right away and did an estimate. Electrician arrived on schedule the same week. Lines were installed in about two days, the first day they didn't have all the equipment needed,.Installer did not complete the specified number of phone connections as we asked for in estimate. Lights were finished in about a month since they had to order light fixtures, so that was an excessive amount of time to wait for completion of job. This job should have been completed in one day but it dragged out to three different days because they were not prepared to do the job completely. Update 11/4/2014 Six months later we found that the wires were improperly installed in crawl space.
Description of Work: Rewired interior phone lines replacing old system. Installed two new exterior light fixtures

Call back to set up service was prompt, they were able to come out the same day! Call was made to discuss problems and the fix for all. Repairs were made, but the electrician had no idea how much the service would be at the time of repair stating that the company would bill me on the following Monday. I had no idea how much it would cost for 1.5 hours worth of work but found the repair bill not too expensive. Just didn't like not knowing how much the repair would be prior to the repair.

I did not directly order them, but I did watch the work. If there was a guy there that did not do what I wanted than they would listen to me and fix it. I did not have any trouble with this company, and they were fine.
