We had a problem with our security/smoke detector systems, we called Wright electrical company and they were very professional and had a clear idea of their schedule availability and we booked an appointment. Kody gave us a call to inform us before arriving which we find convenient to allow us to wrap up any work meetings we are on. Kody was very friendly and knowledgeable, he fixed what we needed fixed and educated us on many things we needed to know. He did not mind our many questions and gave us all the time we needed. I wish i knew this before as we have used many other electrician services and they would not come nearly as professional/helpful. I will sure call Wright electrical company for whatever future electrical needs we have.

In my 40 years of hiring plumbers this was the most outrageous estimate I have ever gotten. My girlfriend had a leak under mobile home. I went under and took a look and saw that a 2 inch PVC drain pipe had become loose and was leaking under the house. She called Bellows and they sent out Andrew who quoted a price of $850 for the repair. She had to pay Andrew $100 upfront for the estimate by the way. After she said she was going to talk to her boyfriend he sent a hand written quote on a plain piece of paper lowering the quote to $650.
I had taken photos of the leak and showed it to my professional plumber friend. He said the repair should take under an hour and cost about $15 in materials plus labor. He had other words to describe the estimate but I won't use them here.
I then called Andrew back and he agreed that he was basically just going to put a piece of tubing in to repair the break.
I then called Bellows to see how they could justify $650 and Mike the manager assured me that it could possibly take three hours and that they charge $221 an hour. He felt charging $650 to make two cuts in a PVC pipe and replace it was justified.
Please be aware that the $221 an hour figure was from Mike's mouth and that if you want to deal with Bellows as plumbers be aware of this.
In response to Chelsea's review below I did not try to extort money from her. On the contrary she offered to pay me the $100 fee back if I would take down the review.I never said I would see her in court. I was referring to the company that her company referred me to that ended up charging $900 for one hour worth of work(bellows would not open up the insulation because it was waterlogged. They recommended this other company to my girlfriend before they would do any work). My girlfriend is out $1000 for something that should have taken one hour to do. If these two companies had had their way she would've paid almost $2900 for the repair. Outrageous!

2652 Research Park Dr, Soquel, CA 95073
I was very surprised at this business; and sad to say, this is my very first negative review on Yelp.
Sam was nice on the phone and in person.
However, Sam had rescheduled my appointment because he forgot he had another client, took 21 days to send us a quote, and provided us information for a receiver which is available at Best Buy for 1/5th of the price quoted.
Disappointing.
