Kostos Electric

(I posted this review on Google as well, so sorry if you've already read it--I'm just trying to support these guys on as many platforms as possible!)

INCREDIBLE!!!

I was in the midst of an IKEA-related lighting fixture crisis (turns out I'd tripped a circuit, half the house was in darkness, the lighting fixture itself wouldn't work--you know, the whole deal), and I called Kostos Electric. Even though the gentleman on the phone was on vacation in St. Louis he took a full hour to walk me through my problem, and not only did his patient and kind advice solve my wiring woes, but he didn't even charge me for the consultation!

It's really rare these days to get such a personal--and HELPFUL--connection from just a brief Google search, but I'm so, so glad I called Kostos Electric. I hope to be using this company for all of my electrical needs for many years to come, and would highly recommend that anyone looking for honest, fair, and friendly service do the same.

THANK YOU!!!!! My bedroom is now comfortably ensconced in soft golden light, and it is all due to you.

We just had Kostos Electric out to do a job, they did a great job and cleaned up the whole space when they were done. Darrell and Dylan were excellent.

Kostos Electric truck nearly caused an accident forcing the driver in front of me nearly off the road simply because he didn't want him to merge in front of him. Rude and dangerous.

I've had a mixed experience with Nathan. Initially, he helped us out in a dire situation during a very cold week during the winter. He came out at a moment's notice, and went above and beyond to really help us get things back on track, which I greatly appreciate.

While he was here, he noted several other issues with our electrical boxes and main input for the condo, and suggested we have them redone. I asked him to provide a quote, and he said he would. Two weeks went by, so I contacted him again, and he said he was waiting on information, but would send the bid as soon as possible. I followed up again a week later, with my email address, and asked him to email me the bid, which he said he would that weekend. That was two weeks ago, and I've since followed up via text, and this time received no response. His initial work was solid, however, it appears that follow-through is not his strong suit.

I live so close to Nate that I can see his truck parked outside my window. I needed a hall light with a tricky vintage ceiling bracket hung up. They were quick, neat and affable. The price seemed reasonable, I didn't check out the competition because I already knew Nate was a nice, upstanding guy.

I am looking forward to doing business with Kostos, when I close on my home. I had a  friend that highly recommended him, and said the work was top notch. I have had a couple conversations with him, and he is hilarious. Looking forward to working with Nate in the near future!

Had an urgent issue where half of our breakers were out on a hot Saturday. After to talking through the problem as much as possible via phone, owner arrived 30 minutes later. Fixed the problem and informed of us next steps to prevent further issues. Honest, reliable, quick.

They actually mean 24/7 service. Called, got picked up right away and they were able to help me over the phone. Free troubleshooting...I like! No need for a visit but I will definitely be using them in the future. Honest and helpful, the two most important things you need in an electrician.

Took a down payment from me to buy lights. Strung me along for a few months. Wouldn't return my calls. When I threatened him with small claims court, he returned my call and promised me he would return my down payment. Haven't heard from him since. Im in the process of filing with small claims court to get my money back.

Our home was in dire need of an electrical upgrade (circuit breaker box and various fixes to bring the house up to code), including a 220 outlet for our dryer. Nate came by looked over the areas and quoted me a price and a day and a half to complete the job. Did my research and the price was on point. We gave him the green light and he started the job. His team consisted of two more professional electricians that were very polite and knocked the job out. Marcus showed his talent and you can see he shows pride through his work. When all was said and done we were very happy with the outcome. I would and will recommend Nate and his team for any electrical job that needs to get done.
