Waxhaw Electricians

"Called as I heard of their reputation for quality - they have a reputation for doing things right. I also see they are highly rated on Angieslist. Got an appointment for an estimator
to come out to quote a fixed price for work I wanted. Two estimators
showed up - they called ahead as we agreed and arrived on time. ...more They
looked at the 2 rooms I wanted the outlets in. I requested 3 quotes one
for each room separately and one to do both rooms together to decide if
it was worth doing something now rather than in the future. They agreed
to get the 3 quotes to me that Thursday evening. By Monday lunch I
did not have the quotes, so I gave them a call. A hour later I got 2
quotes not the 3 that I had requested. The missing quote was the primary work I
wanted doing. A quick email exchange resolved that and I booked an
appointment for 2pm Thursday.
235 on Thursday no one had showed up and I had not received a call -
everyone I've used on angieslist has called if they need to adjust a
time, and most call 30 minutes before the appointment to confirm.
I called the office and was told the appointment was actually for
between 2 to 4 and I had not been informed that as the person taking my
appointment was new and being trained. Fair enough. Not a problem, but I
had scheduled around a 2 pm arrival not a 2 hour window. The office
called their tech and reported he would be with me in 10 minutes. He
showed up after 30 minutes. He had clearly not been briefed on the work and showed me he had been dispatched on a time and materials basis.
The tech looked at the job and I was clear where I wanted the outlet.
He carefully investigated options including looking in the attic. He
could not find an easy option from there. He came up with a plan of
action that I was ok with, but when I checked towards the end of the job the
outlet was not where I wanted it. He explained that after some
investigation he found difficulty running the outlet from the point of
electricity we had available. I could see his point. The outlet is not
where I wanted it, but it's acceptable and the work is fine.
I will try a different angieslist electrical contractor next time.

" and Rich were great! They arrived on time, helped us figure out the placement of the lights, were very careful bringing in a huge 16' ladder, did the job and cleaned up afterwards! They were very patient with us - I explained I have slight OCD issues and they were ready to please! They were so nice and friendly, too! ...more I honestly would call them back in a heart beat for other electrical needs! They were competitively priced - I had to go with them because of so many other great reviews on Angie's List! We got a quote for additional projects and I'm sure we will be using them in the future!!

Great service. Within 10 minutes the problem was diagnosed and repaired. Very knowledgeable and professional.
Will use again and will recommend to anyone who needs electrical service.

"I had called based on reviews as well as personal recommendation from neighbor. They promptly returned my call and I was told they were at least 30 days out. I said it was not a rush - just hanging some chandeliers in my new home and put me on the schedule for what I believe was Sept 30. She said they would be out sometime ...more after 2pm but could be as late as 4pm. Again I said that was fine. Unfortunately the day came and no one showed. I was surprised their wasn't a follow-up as the date approached just confirming. I feel it is their responsibility not mine but in the end I was the one left waiting and no electrical work completed. I had dinner plans that evening and never bothered to find out what happened. I feel a company has a responsibility to remember scheduled jobs especially when scheduling so far out. Not someone I care to do business with.

We originally called our electrician but he could not get free to come for several days. Knowing that we have dogs and grandkids that play around the yard, he suggested a friend and colleague of his, , who was able to come out right away.

(Good guy points for Allegheny Electric!!) Now we have two favorite electricians!

"The appointment was scheduled within three business days of our call and the technician arrived promptly at the scheduled time. The work required a tall A-frame ladder which the tech brought with him. Other electrical companies quoted us rental fees for such equipment and time to pick it up.

We received estimates from $250.00 to $450.00, ...more including up to 5 hours labor for this job.

charged us $106.00 for this work and completed it in less than 1 1/2 hours. The work was professionally done and we are very pleased with the result. We would recommend

to anyone needing electrical services.

"Mr. performed top-notch service! He was extremely professional from our initial phone call to the time he came out and performed the work. We had two ceiling fans that needed to be replaced as well as 2 light fixtures that needed to be installed. He was extremely dilligent in performing the tasks and even adjusted another ...more of our ceiling fans that was wobbling at high speed. He also offered to take our used ceiling fans to Habitat for Humanity and provide us the receipt. We will definitely be using him again. In fact, we need to have a whole house surge protection system installed, and he will definitely be getting the call for the job."

" was doing electrical work for an enclosed porch (Exterior Additions was the main contractor), and with that completed I decided to hire him for additional work. He gave estimates for adding electrical outlets, installing a celing fan, and running wiring for a home theatre system. All work was completed on time and at the estimated ...more price.

is a very professional, and worked around my schedule to make sure all work was completed at a time convienient for all."

"I had a number of outlets that did not work. Mr. came over just as he said and was able to fix the problem in less than hour - a poorly-wired Ground Fault Indicator that was done when the house was built nearly 13 years ago. Just as good as the service was the advice his wife (she responds to business calls) gave me the previous ...more week in regard to another issue that turned out to also be related to a GFI which just needed to be reset. She saved me the cost of a service call since all I had to do was press the reset button. I Will definitely give them another call if I have an electrical problem."

"Our job involved a complete and comprehensive outdoor living renovation. Our purchased home was a foreclosure which had been unoccupied for many months. The limited landscaping had been poorly installed and had endured drought and neglect. Once I contacted Bill, he came to our home and immediately began to brainstorm. Then magic began! After the final ...more design was selected, we were ready to begin. Bill was at the work site everyday and was very hands-on. The many different trades of work were meticulously completed with Bill personally overseeing each stage. Each day, the work site was left as neat as possible. The staff was professional in every way and a pleasure to be around. I was impressed with all the different trades

was able to perform with certification in each. It was definitely 1 stop shopping! Our finished project is beautiful, functional, and a year round dream."
