I thought I had a problem with a faulty circuit breaker

An appliance serviceman had difficulty with a connection problem and thought it might be the result of a faulty circuit breaker. He suggested that I get an electrician to come in to check it out. When electrician is mentioned, only one name comes to mind: Dave Nagel. I called him and he came out the next day. I've used him for various problems several times now. And he came through again, as usual. He checked the circuit breaker box and found nothing wrong. Then he asked where my GFI switches were. I showed him. He found that one to be okay. But he insisted that there had to be another one. He looked around and could not find one. Then he said, "Could you move that coffee maker?" I did and there it was. And that was the problem--it had tripped. But still he was not satisfied. He said that there was something wrong. One receptacle was not connected to the GFI that it should logically be connected to. He said that it would be a good idea to get a GFI for that one. I said okay and he went to get one. He returned with the part and quickly installed it. Just a tip for anyone who would like to use his services: Because he is so busy, it may take more than one phone call to contact him. Be persistent. It is worth it. I wouldn't use anyone else.

Dave Nagel came by about a week before to determine if he could install a fan/light in our recreation room. He said that he could. Additionally, we had a light fixture installed over our pool table that did not come out very well. I suggested a possible solution and he agreed that it is a good idea and may work. After several email exchanges, it was set that he would come over about 9:30 am on Thursday, September 3rd. The 9:30 am timeframe was confirmed in an email from Dave just the night before, on Wednesday, September 2nd. My husband got up at 7:30 to go to Home Depot to buy some boards that would allow Dave to stand on the pool table to check on this.

9:30 rolls around. No Dave. 10:30 rolls around. No Dave. I left two voicemails asking if he is still coming. No reply. At 1:49 pm, I sent an email asking, "What happened? He finally replied at 6:30 pm with a brief message as follows: "hi, had scheduled work on another job which Took me All day.". My husband took a long-awaited vacation to get some household things done, and this is how Dave treats us. If he didn't want to do the job, just let us know. I cannot tell you how disappointing this is. By later in the afternoon, I got concerned that something may have happened to Dave, because he did not seem like the type of person who would not show up or call.I called your office to find out if you have additional numbers for Dave, but you do not. Also, he only has a Post office box for his address.

I had a last minute rush electrical need (my other electrician disappeared) for a backyard project that was in coordination with a whole bunch of other work including laying down pavers and installing gas lines. I called David at Allen Electric based on the great ratings on Angie's list and told him of my time sensitive needs. He went out of the way to come to my house the next day and was very professional, knowledgeable, and pleasant.

Given timing constraints with all the other portions of the project I couldn't use David this time around but I was so positive about his service level, professionalism, and knowledge/recommendations that I wanted to make sure I noted this on Angie's List. I hope to use him on my next electrical project.

We wanted LED tubes installed as our overhead lighting in the 14 foot high ceiling fixture in the kitchen. Dave came in, looked over the situation, gauged what we wanted, made suggestions, and went after the necessary parts. When he returned, he installed the tubes and the dimmer switch.

Anytime I need electrical work, I know exactly who to call. I've used Alan Electric three times previously and been happy with the results each time. I don't even bother calling for any other estimates. In fact, once we determined what we wanted, I didn't even ask Dave for an estimate. I trust him that much. I like the way he works--especially with something as dangerous as electricity--very carefully, thinking out each step as he goes along. After he returned with the parts, he dismantled the existing lights and step by step he installed three banks of two LED tubes. Then he installed the proper LED dimmer switch. The result? Beautiful--more light than we have ever had in the kitchen and with the dimmer, the proper lighting for whatever task we had in the area. My wife wondered out loud, "Why didn't we do this sooner?"

Installed a GFI outlet with cover for exterior tankless water heater

Excellent. I called yesterday after researching on Angie's list. He came out yesterday to inspect and provided a quote this morning. The work was done this afternoon. He clearly knows what he is doing and his work was high quality. I will keep him on file for future use. It was a very positive experience.

Replaced one interior outlet and two exterior outlets. Installed exterior weather proof outlet covers on three outlets. Examed additional outlets and breaker box for future needs.

Dave is great. He has been up to the house before to do work and we called him back because of the excellent service he performed. He will be back in the near future to install an additional exterior outlet for a pond and to replace a breaker. The work he performed yesterday was professionally done and we are very happy. Its good to have someone check the electrical systems to give me peace of mind that all is well. We really like Dave and will continue to use his services!

Installed two outside outlets and changed the box/fixed one broken outside outlet.

Dave was really punctual. He's a really nice guy and was very polite and did everything that was needed. He went right to work when he arrived. He completed his work in almost exactly the amount of time he said it would take.
