Excellent work. For both rendering the estimate, as well as performing the work, Muth Electric arrived on schedule. They worked me in quickly, and their work was exceptional. Since they had my power off, they worked straight through without breaks to ensure the power was out for the shortest time possible.
Description of Work: Changed out breaker box with a larger one.

Very nice people, will use again and/or recomend to friends, called on a weekend expecting an answering service since they are normaly closed. And Mr, Muth answered, I described what I needed done and requested an estiment, he came out Monday gave me the estiment which I thought was very reasonable, and I accepted. They started the next morning (Tuesday) and finished up Wednesday, everything worked great, they had to do a little extra work but the estimate was kept exact. THANK YOU !

I am renovating an older home for rental. My concern was that it be made safe and serviceable. Mr. Muth and his son determined the needs and explained my options. It turned out that my wiring was not as bad as I had feared and the needed upgrades were accomplished at a reasonable cost. Mr. Muth could have told me anything and padded the cost but did not. He apparently follows a "If it is not broke, don't fix it" philosophy. He and his son made a good impression for professionalism and honesty. I will definitely be using them again and recommending them to others.
Description of Work: Evaluated needs to make older home safe and serviceable and installed items as required.

I have two apartments above my home. All of the sudden the apartments had little power. Some lights worked and some didn't. Stove lights came on but wouldn't heat up. Fridge lights came on but fridge wouldn't cool. Some outlets worked while others didn't. This was on a Friday. I called Muth Electric in a panic and Pete answered my call. He was on his way out of town and asked me too send pics of my electric meters. From the pictures he knew what the problem was and sent his son to inspect and see if his son could fix it. It turned out to be a dangerous and difficult job for one man so they said they would come fix it the following Monday. They showed up early and replaced a huge wire (the old one was burned from a shortage or something) inside the electrical meter going all the way up to 2nd story apartments. I highly recommend Muth Electric. Very courteous and professional. I am so thankful for their quick response and skills. I am 100% satisfied.

By the end of the following week he never called me nor did showed up. I will not recommend this company to any of my friends.
Description of Work: I called to have my braker box checked out because when my auxilary heat turned on my entire breaker box would kick off. I spoke to Pete on the phone ,he seemed knowledgeable and pleasant. He asked me several questions about what was going on. He me me to txt him pictures of my breaker boxes. He then told me he would call me back at the end of the week or at the start of the following week to let me know he when he would be in my area. He could not give me an exact day/time for an appointment.

He was professional and invest and will have our business when the time comes.
Description of Work: I contacted Mr. Muth regarding concerns I had with some very old electrical sockets in our 1920s home. He offered to examine photos of the sockets via email in order to save me the cost of having someone come out, in the event there was no need. He responded quickly and eased my concerns. He could easily have charged me to come out and give me the same information, but he chose courtesy instead.

The weekend is no time to need a new electrician, but Muth Electric saved the day after our home was struck by lightening. Power company workers confirmed it was not a line problem, so we needed help fast. All 220 current was down, shutting off air conditioning and large appliances, and 110 circuits were shutting down as well.. Temps were in the 90's and our bedfast mother soon would have had to vacate her home by ambulance. Muth came to the rescue. On a Saturday afternoon, Pete Muth found the external fuse that was needed and replaced it swiftly. The bill wasn't even painful, when we'd have been willing to pay almost anything to restore power. What great customer service!

I found Muth electric on Angie's list and trusted the comments posted. Was happy to see the father-son team exceeded my expectations. They were on time, honest, professionally completed the requested electrical job and were very reasonably priced. I will be calling them back for some other electrical work that needs to be done outside but am waiting for the weather to break. I highly recommend them.

Description of Work: All electricity was out in the ceiling of every room. When I called, the gentleman tried to resolve over the phone so as to save me money. When this didn't work, they came out within 15-20 minutes and it was fixed very quickly so I could make my next appt.

This father and son business is very professional and exactly what I was searching for in an electrical contractor. He helped me decide exactly what was needed and explained all my options. I felt I could make an informed decision with his suggestions. Many of his suggestions saved me a lot of money without compromising any code restrictions. I have recommended them to family and friends and will continue to do so in the future. Be sure to include them in your electrical needs. You will be glad you called them.
Description of Work: Electrical service upgrade. Installed additional breaker box and new circuits. Added several new outlets and repaired others. Grounded some outlets and corrected polarity on others. Added electrical circuit for whirlpool tub planned in future bathroom renovation. Mapped out and labeled new and existing circuits.

Very personable and responsive, and quickly isolated and explained problem including what was wrong and why.

He came out one morning to look at things and discuss with me. He wrote everything down. He told me what kind of generator that I needed. It was a lot of work. He did a good job. He did everything that needed to be done. He cleaned up afterwards. He came out when he said he would.
Description of Work: He wired a standby generator in for me. He consolidated my electrical panels in my garage. He installed a transfer switch. He ran wire and installed a 220 outlet in my garage.

Excellent work! They worked well as a team - one disconnecting and closing off the old service the other getting the new outlets installed. Then under the house the younger pete went to run the new wire. Very Efficient!
Description of Work: Pete & his son "Re-Pete" moved my dryer outlet to the other side of the room! He assessed the present service access and decided going under the house was the best way. They had to put in a junction box at the current location, drill a hole down through the flooring and then back up at the new location. Meanwhile, Pete put in the new outlet.
