BEWARE of Thomson Electrical! We paid him in full after work was started, and he promptly stopped working midway through the project. They will not answer calls or communications to finish work or provide a refund. If you have to hire them, get ALL WORK done before you pay to avoid this scam.

The initial phone call was very warm and friendly. We set out an appointment 3 weeks out to first thing in the morning by his request. I made it a point to respect the time he gave me and rushed out of my house. He no showed! I left 3 messages with the last one telling him how unprofessional he was and that he could at last tell me he was too busy to do my job. It's been 2 days and no return phone call!
Description of Work: Light fixtures needed replacing, electrical outlets need changed out, some electric work in the attic, wall mounted heater stopped working.

I was able to talk to him once. However when I was ready for him to come and look at what I wanted he never responded. My several voicemails went unanswered. This was back in June/July of this year, 2016.
Description of Work: Needed 240V outlet installed in garage for electric car.

This tiny project went very well. On time, professional, and good installation. Switch was replaced in 1 hour. Only small hick-up was a miscommunication on which day service was to be provided.

Excellent experience from telephone call to conclusion. Response time was within 3 hours. Demeanor was friendly and professional. He also placed a flexible conduit over an exposed ground wire, just to assuage our concern. He did not charge a dime for any of his services. (Unbelievable, if you've dealt with electricians.) What a superb professional and a gentleman. I gave him an undisclosed amount of money, anyway, for his time and patience.
Description of Work: I'd managed to turn off a number of circuit breakers (can't read the labels.) While removing an old dishwasher with relevant circuits off (so I thought) got a spark and turned off more circuits. As a result we had no electricity in about 1/3 of the house. Mr. Thompson quickly restored power.

This was a very good experience. I called in the morning. We made an appointment for that afternoon. Mr Thompson arrived for the appointment on time. He replaced the broken switch - then showed me how and where it was broken. He was very professional and informative. He also explained how I could check the other switches in our old house. Because he finished so quickly, he only charged $100.00 for the job, instead of his usual rates. I certainly appreciated that. I highly recommend Thompson Electrical Services. Robert Thompson is friendly, professional, thorough, and professional.

We called Thompson's because of a favorable review on Angie's list, and I have to agree with them. Thompson's is a family-owned business and they seem to care about their reputation. They arrived on time and quickly got to work. They did a great job, and their prices were competitive. I would not hesitate to recommend them to friends and family.
Description of Work: They came to repair failed wiring in our garage and to repair a yard light. The wiring was quickly diagnosed and repaired. The yard light took longer due to a poor installation on the part of the builder's contractor. They had to modify the light housing to make it possible for the light bulb to be changed in the future.

They were excellent, prompt, and professional. They went beyond the call of duty and were very nice. They gave me instructions on how to change light switch so that I wouldn't have to call an electrician to do it. I thought that was remarkable. When he pulled out my fridge to check an outlet, he noticed a leak and so he took the cover off of the back of fridge to check it out and gave me advice on how to fix it. They were great!
Description of Work: They came out within two hours of when I called them. They upgraded my electrical system with grounding. They installed some exterior security lighting and a thermostat.
