Flash Electric

He is very knowledgeable and reasonable.

It went really well. Even though they'd had most of their tools stolen from their truck last night, they showed up on time and were very pleasant. Three guys showed - they were training. But the price remained the same. Actually, they gave me a break on the price because it didn't take a long to find/resolve the problem as they'd expected. Dave had me demonstrate the problem and, looking around, identified what he thought might be the culprit. He was right. While his team was investigating, he installed some really high light bulbs for me. Together, they removed some problem light fixtures from the circuit which fixed the immediate problem. (Those light fixtures are outdoors, not well protected from the elements, and 20 years old. And not installed by him or his company. They had every right to fail and it's not his fault.) Dave noticed they were tracking in leaves as they and insisted on sweeping up after they were done even though those were not the only leaves that were in my foyer.

It turned out very well. I'd give them A's across the board.

Mr. Style with Mr. Sparky was punctual, professional, friendly, and he explained the process to me. (I have no knowlwdege of electricity). He installed the panel, box, meter and did all the wiring then got it inspected. I am going to use this company later when I raise the cash to do a full re-wiring of the house

Style Voir is a really good electrician and a nice guy too boot. He was kind enough to do this job the same day we called. He actually stopped at our house on his way home from work. After inspecting the damaged wiring, he explained what needed to be done and why, which I really appreciated. He did the work quickly and professionally. I will most certainly use him again.

The technician was very professional, prompt and courteous. Unfortunately, the quote was very high, over $800, and so I decided not to use their services further. Because their are two lights in the bedroom, coming off one circuit, the technician explained that a second circuit would have to be added in order to have the fan and 2nd light operate independent of each other. The quote seemed to be very high, but I don't know how that compares with other companies.

I am ignorant I guess to the cost of electrical work these days. Was SHOCKED that installing a ceiling fan could cost so much. But....we needed the work done and now I know how long I have to save in order to get these kinds of things taken care of. Perhaps that goes along with being a first time homeowner? Or maybe never needing an electrician might have something to do with it. I guess there is a lot to be said for being a renter for many, many years! Style came out and did the install for us. The work was done on one of the hottest days we've had in Washington state in quite a while and due to some issues with the place where the fan was going to go, had to go in to the attic more than once. Felt terrible for him. But he was a pro and did a GREAT job. He also looked at installing some lights in/on our garage and took a look at our electrical panel. He was pretty adamant that the panel be replaced sooner than later and promised to send us a written estimate (He gave us some numbers verbally but that was all) for the cost of replacement install - haven't heard a word since. :( With that said, we are currently looking for other folks to to provide us with bids for the job.

I bought the $299 for $99 special promotion. The deal stated that they had a $59 trip charge which was fine. What the special didn't disclose was that they have a standard fee to diagnose the problem which was $224. I provided details of the work to be performed before they came out so they knew what to expect. I had previously had another electrical company come out to work on the electrical switch and knew what had been done but that company refused to complete the work because of bees in the attic. I called Mr. Sparky to complete the work after the bees were gone. I didn't need a diagnosis performed, we knew what work was required and I told them before they came. Basically, the $299 promotional value is used up as soon as they step foot in the door before they do any work. I felt ripped off by their promotion. Their diagnosis time lasted approximately 10 minutes which included going upstairs, climbing up into the attic and looking at the connection. Pretty steep fee for 10 minutes worth of looking at a situation I had already told them about. I called their office to try to discuss the matter with them while the technician was here but only got through to their answering service. Their manager returned my call after the technician had left my home and explained that a diagnoses charge is standard industry procedure to ensure that they meet code with any potential work that needs done and that is was a safety issue for their clients. After explaining my displeasure with the way the promotion was worded, the manager offered to refund the diagnoses fee so the actual cost ended up being $200. She felt frustrated by the Angie's List promo requirements as well. I appreciated their willingness to address the problem with the Angie's list Promo and was satisfied with their work. The actual work performed was done well and their contractor was professional and helpful. He was not the problem, the company promotion and undisclosed standard procedure is the problem. I learned a lesson from them, next time I hire a contractor, I'll ask about "diagnoses fees" up front.

The guy's first name was Style, he was very knowledgeable and professional, was able to advise me on the most prudent/cost-efficient/energy-efficient way to add some heaters to my home, which ended up being a combo of using existing in wall heaters and purchasing a few convection heaters that Style then installed. He saved me money in a few different ways throughout the process. He was always on time, very communicative, and he finished the work faster than estimated. His attention to detail was impressive. I'd definitely use him again.

They came over and fixed the issue quickly. Very professional, and clearly explaining what this issue was. Would use again.

Cory came to give a quote and was on time and very helpful. I liked Cory and planned to use them but had some questions on their quote as it was twice the price of other quotes. I am not afraid to pay more as I know there can be differences in material and work, I just wanted to understand what I was getting for the higher $$ amount! I sent two emails asking for clarification and then called and left a message........no reply, no acknowledgement, nothing! I guess they have more business than they an handle! It is a shame as I really wanted to use them! I will not call them again. I found an excellent company at half the price.

They called me back within 2 hours of my initial inquiry to schedule an appointment. The dispatcher is pleasant and respectful.

Also electricians these days are either extremely well paid or they are super busy. COuldn't get anyone to come out to my house on Friday before Easter without having to pay weekend holiday rates Ugh. Also the earliest appt was Tuesday to do the standard rates. A major pain in that I had no outlets in the kitchen. Even had the refrig on an extension cord! Cory was very nice. Pleasant guy to work with. He seemed honest and sympathetic . He gave me some good advice . I will call them again. One thing with electrical companies is that they don't want to tell your price before looking at the job. This companys office recept could not even tell me what their hourly rate would be - weird! OH, I mentioned Angie's list when I called but forgot after Cory did his work. So I called the office and they said they would figure something out. Will wait to see about this

Mister Sparky was on time and exceptionally nice to work with. I purchased a deal that gave me a certain amount ($) of services for a reduced price. When I purchased the deal, I did not realize that a $75 service charge would be tacked onto my bill. Plus, I feel their price for replacing a bathroom fan was much too high. The work took less than an hour and they charged over $300 for the installation. I actually had two fans that needed to be installed, but I couldn't afford to pay for the second one. I ended up paying over $100 on top of the initial amount I paid for the deal. Great guys, but over priced.

I called Mister Sparky Friday 1/2/15, got a response back in a reasonable time made apt for Monday 1/5/14. Cory the Tech called about 30 minute before arriving gave estimate of work and performed quickly and out the door in about I hour. Cory was very courteous and strait forward and I would have him back any time. Good Job

I was quite pleased with their work in installing the EVCS in my garage. They had the work done well within their estimate and it's been working great every since. The installer had done this before and was very skilled and friendly, explaining many details that I might not have considered. Highly recommend this company.

Courteous, professional and called when he was going to be a little late. He installed the ceiling fan in a new place not removing the old one. He asked for and additional $382.09 so my initial $99 purchase for$299 worth of service cost $681 not counting the $99. The final invoice did not clearly indicate why it was going to cost so much more. When my husband called to ask me and he said he did not understand why; but what else was I to do at that point. I thought my husband was saying it was going to cost a total of $382 so an extra $83. Not the case. I felt the overall cost was outrageous for a ceiling install that I could have had done for the $300 by another company.

Electrician was pushy about what he thought should be done. Not what I wanted to be done. I wanted him to replace the current bath fan that had a light with a bath fan that didn't have a light.Too chatty.

It went very well. The guy was very professional and real with me even if it was letting me know better options that didn't require his services. Honest people.

He was done in an hour; did the wiring and installed a fan.

They were awesome! They came out (to an island!) to give us an estimate, were prompt and courteous. After getting all the estimates, we contracted with Mr Sparky of Seattle to do the work. They installed the generator, and after the gas line was installed by another contractor they hooked it up with no issues. They came back for the inspection, and we now do not worry about power outages! As far as we are concerned, this is the only electrical contractor we want to deal with.

Mister Sparky quickly responded when I signed up for the $99.00 deal for $300.00 worth of work. He was quick to respond to my emails to set up a time and came on a Saturday. David called a half hour before coming as was arranged and arrived promptly on time. I only had 2 outlets and the one outdoor deck light to be replaced but he said he could do another outlet to reach the $300.00 maximum. David was very friendly and completed the work quickly. I would definitely hire Mr. Sparky again!

Tech showed up on time, actually called to see if I was available so he could show up early. He wrote up estimate and due to additional costs above the $99 for the $299 deal, I decided to wait on the project as there is more involved to the original job.

I called Mr. Sparky to set up an appointment for an estimate on some work I wanted done on my home. Style came out and was professional and seemed pretty knowledgeable. He wrote up his quote and encouraged me to get additional quotes. And that if I needed to I could pick and choose to do single jobs. I saw a 'big deal' for them so I bought it. I really thought that I would use them. After getting other quotes, I saw that they were 50% more expensive than the other guys. I gave Style a call and gave him an opportunity to price match. He said the best he could do is reduce his price by 10%. (Just so you know the numbers, he quoted me $3250 with tax, my lowest quote was $2300 with tax). 10%? That was not going to work for me! I did want to take advantage of the 'big deal' so I thought why not just have them do one job that I would see the best savings? ceiling fan install. I called them and I had to pretty much yell at them and argue with them to honor the 'big deal'!! They told me that they lose money by doing these deals. THAT IS NOT MY PROBLEM!!! You offered it, I bought it, you are supposed to be happy to honor it!!! After getting them to accept the use of the deal, I thought better of it and contacted Angie's List to get a refund. Why would I use someone that was so unprofessional to come in my house? They even tried to guilt me by saying that the electrician's feelings were hurt that I was going to use another company for the rest of the work. Really?!!! Aren't we all adults here?!!! At that point, even if they were to match my other bid, I would not use them! TOTALLY UNPROFESSIONAL!!! I will never recommend them!!! Thanks Angie's List for refunding my money!

The electrician came arrived on time and did a very good job at installing the track lighting per my request. He was efficient, professional and I would use him again in an instant.
