Never will I ever recommend or use this company. After hurricane Irma, we needed an electrician to transfer our equipment from our pole that broke to a new pole. Called and asked their fee and was told by Katie and Dorin that their charge was $80 per hour. Scheduled for them to come, they arrived at 11:30, left at 11:45, then returned at 1:00. Finished the job at 4:00 (I have been told by several other companies that this job should have taken 1-2 hours MAX). The electrician presented my mom with the bill that reflected his hourly rate of $80/hr AND a helper at $45/hr. When mom said we were told $80/hr, the guy responded by saying "Oh, they forgot to tell you about the helper fee". So he steps aside, calls the VP of the company and says he just doesn't feel right about the charges. He took an hour off and $10/hr off. Still we paid $345 for what should have been a maximum $240 job. Once I spoke with Dorin and said that he should honor his word, he tried to say he would charge us $80 for 4.5 hours of work. Once I told him I was going to be making phone calls to the BBB, the attorney general and news channel 8, he said ok, I will return your check and you can pay the $240. Never ever call these people, their workers are great, but the office staff rips you off.
I also was charged $200 for a $89 permit, I asked why, I was told because we have to come back and tape the permit to the meter box for inspection. So now I'm also paying $110 for someone to do this task. I was over charged an hour plus the permit. If you value your money don't use this company, I think I now realize why it was so easy to book them just after the hurricane.
Called to set appointment for generator transfer switch installation. Spoke with Dorin at Wilson Electric on Thursday 9.14.17 he was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and professional. My appointment was set for Tuesday 9.19.17 and the electrician Josh showed up right on time. He was extremely efficient, professional and did the job right. I can recommend Wilson Electric with confidence. Thank you for the great work!
Wilson's has an incredible array of lighting resources and knowledgeable, wonderful people who know how to apply it to my problems - GREAT ! ! !
I called this company and asked what their hourly rate was. I was told $80 per hour from when the service tech arrived and left. I asked if this included any traveling fees or charges and they specifically said there was none. The service tech arrived and fixed the issue within 10 minutes I then asked him to address another issue and he seemed upset like I was waisting his time. He lolly gagged around the house just waisting time and never addressed the issue and spent another 20 minutes in his truck doing paperwork. I was charged 1hour and a half including the time he drove from his prior job (30 minute drive). I would not use this company again nor recommend them.
About the only positive thing I can say is they scheduled me very quickly after Irma. Now maybe I'm wrong but I've never been charged per hour starting when our electrician get to the shop, his start time is 7am. That's when I started getting charged the $80 an hour. So I'm guessing I had to pay for him to get tools and materials ready for my job. Had to pay him to stop somewhere and get breakfast, coffee ect. It's a total 15 min drive to my house. He showed up 7:50am. He seemed to do a good job, and I'm not knocking the electrician. I'm pretty upset on how we were charged. He finished the job about 9:45 give or take a few minutes.
