J M Electrical Contractors LLC

Well, paying $80 to have someone wrap duct tape around a wire is a bit much. Not only that, but we had to wait a week to have them come over and do that. Not being electricians ourselves (or even very handy) we thought that chewed-through electrical wires needed to be replaced. I had never called an electrician before so didn't think to ask what the cost would be. I had a lot of stressful things going on in my life so didn't have time to shop around. Just saw the good rating on Angie's List, and he was near our home, so it's the only place I called. I'm sorry that I did. The person who answers the phone and schedules the appointment (who I assume is the owner) wasn't particularly pleasant to begin with, so I should have had a clue. Wish I would have used one of the places that offers coupons (more work done for a lot less). But I was trying to give someone else a chance who didn't have very many ratings. So live and learn I guess. Just wanted to share this with my fellow Angie's List members so you don't make the same mistake I did. Need to realize that JM Electrical Contractors won't tell you the cost up front unless you ask, they will charge you a minimum trip charge no matter what they do (even if it only takes 10 minutes) and you will have to wait a while to get an appointment (and the guy will be a little gruff when you're scheduling the appointment). The one positive note is that the person who came to do the "work" was nice and professional.

They were great. Very easy to work with. They cleaned up after themselves every time they were in our house. They did very good, professional work. You definitely get the feel that they just want you to be happy with their work. I would recommend them to anyone.

They are knowledgeable, experienced, professional, punctual and their estimating and billing is clear. They also have absolutely never left a mess or job undone. They have a stable staff that is committed to the company and doing the right thing. I have never hesitated to leave them working in the home alone. They do commercial and residential. I believe some of their commercial experience gives them an advantage for residential work--keeping up with technology and equipment. This group is in demand and can be very busy yet have never let us down getting to us. I have referred them to others who all have found their work outstanding.

JM Electrical has done a tremendous job of helping us with updating our electrical needs when selling my parents 45 year old home. They also furnished and installed a 60 amp subpanel to remove the double taps found in the home inspection. (The price above reflects both jobs). My parents home sold in one day, after one showing. We wouldn't have received the fantastic offer on the house without John's efforts. JM Electrical is professional, courteous, and extremely knowledgeable. Their prices are extremely competitive. We will be using them again to install cable jacks in my parents new condo.
