Our old kitchen light fixture, fluorescent, wouldn't turn on. We discovered this on a Saturday morning, and I was having guests to dinner on Monday evening at 5 pm. After planning to buy new fluorescent bulbs, we realized the problem might be in the ballast, and we needed an electrician. We decided not to call until Monday morning. We put a request out on Yelp to five electricians. ECS Electric replied within minutes and was able to arrive an hour later. The electrician, Eduardo Caseras, found that yes, the ballast needed to be replaced as well as the four tubes. He drove two miles to buy them but found that there was still a loose connection somewhere in the fixture. After testing each wire, he found and fixed it. Perfect bright light in time for my 5 pm guests! It took 2 1/2 hrs. and he only charged us $225 for both the labor and the light bulbs. Very competent electrician as well as friendly and polite, very experienced in lighting fixtures. We will definitely call ECS Electric again--after 27 years with Powell Electric, which converted to computerized, non-itemized estimates and contracts this past spring--a big pain to deal with.
