Response from DC Electric
The only information I have is I did a Whole House Inspection on 10/19/14 and printed out the findings for that Inspection. This information was sent on 10/21/15. Never heard another word from anyone. The info was sent to [Member Name Removed] Why anyone would wait 1-1/2 yrs. to complain is beyond me. No work was ever done. No invoice was ever issued. . As far as answering calls. If I am at a job I may not be able to pick up a phone call immediately, but I always return calls when I have a few minutes. D.C.Electric stands by it's name. Quality and Service is #1. I do believe D.C.Electric deserves an apology!!!!

They showed up on time and the job was done quickly. A special outlet was required and they picked it up for me. They came out the following Monday and installed the outlet. They were very friendly and respectful.
Description of Work: I called on a Friday to have a 220 volt outlet installed in my garage. They came out Saturday morning to see what they could do. They did not charge for the estimate. On Monday, the work was done. They were in and out in less than 30 minutes. They were friendly and respectful of my space. Their prices were reasonable. Next time I need electrical work, I will call D.C. Electrical

When asking about charges, he said that if my wife wanted to pay him in cash, he could give her a better price. He ended up charging $90.00 and ask that the payment be made to his wife. It seemed odd but my wife did it and asked me about it later. However, she received a "Paid in Full" receipt. When I got home, I ended up contacting the landscape company and said that I had a guy which could complete the job if they didn't. David gave a receipt for parts to submit to the landscape company. I went round and round with him that he disconnected a cable in my fuse box and from what I understand, he wanted it to reflect parts so there weren't taxes involved with it in an attempt to "reduce my bill and make it cheaper". It ended up that the landscaping company made it right with their own electrician contacts. Fast forward a month and now I'm receiving "Past Due" notices stating that I owe him an extra $100.00 for services rendered. The bottom line, in my opinion, he's running his company "off the books" where he can as cash deals. Now he's threatening me with past due notices since the landscaper went with someone else. Shady at best unfortunately.
Description of Work: I had a breaker which kept on tripping. My wife was home when he came over. He quickly identified that the outdoor light probably got nicked during landscaping which I had done during the summer. He disconnected the light from the fuse box and suggested we contact the landscaper which performed that work. My wife confirmed to him that they did nick the wire so he was probably correct.

They arrived right on time. all the work was done way beyond my expectations. Both of the men were very professional and did the work quickly and excellently. They were responsive to my questions and answered them showing they were very educated in their profession. We were EXTREMELY happy with their work and would recommend them to our family and friends. When we would need more electrical work done we would call them again. He also helped us with a light fixture that was giving us some problems with the shades.
Description of Work: D.C. ELECTRIC ran a new line for a freezer in our garage, added a new light over the stairs in the garage and ran a phone line from the house to the garage.

Dave and his associate, Jason, were awesome. Very down to earth, punctual, and very respectful of the home. Extremely professional and hard working. I don't recall them taking lunch break. They arrived on time and worked straight through completing the job in roughly 6 hours. They went the extra mile even, when I asked for another estimate about a fried outlet in our living room. They looked at it, and went ahead and fixed for us without me knowing about it! The reason I know is because our plug-in carbon monoxide monitor now works! They left the house immaculate, and quietly left as they "knew" my two girls were down for a nap, and didn't disturb myself as I was working upstairs. I can safely say that I now have a "resident" electrician. I would highly recommend this company. Nick
