Had veteran electric install a generator receptacle and lockout on my home panel. They were punctual and quick and competitively priced. Would use again!

Another terrific job by Paul Richards Electric. David was my technician and he was polite, knowledgable and sorted out the issue quickly and made sure to leave my house clean like he found it! Highly recommend them.

David was our Electrician, he was very thorough, explained everything in detail didn't leave any questions unanswered, and very friendly. Great service, price in my opinion was fair for all the work being put in. Definitely recommend!

Yovani responded to my request right away, which I really appreciated since my smoke alarm had been chirping loudly and announcing Low Battery every minute since 2:30 AM! He arrived within the timeframe he gave me and was polite, informative, and helpful. He advised me to replace all smoke alarms in the house because once one goes, the rest aren't far behind. I was quoted $109 per alarm. That sounded high, but I thought the 10-year battery alarms cost around $50 each, so I agreed. I needed the chirping to stop.

He went to the store to pick up the alarms and returned about an hour later. It took him a little less than an hour to replace all 7 smoke alarms with Kidde Worry Free 10-year Battery alarms. No more chirping!!!

My only complaint was the amount he charged me. After he left, I looked up the cost of the alarms at Lowe's and Home Depot. Turns out they can be purchased for $20 per alarm. I'm not opposed to a business making money and being paid for their time, but $600+ profit for two hours work seems exorbitant.

In any case, I'm happy to have new smoke alarms that I shouldn't have to deal with for the next 8 to 10 years! And I was relieved to get the work done the same day I reached out.

I'm really happy with the outcome of the projects I needed done. Geovanny is very knowledgeable in the maintenance of a home and I got some good tips and learned a few things as well. I'll be contacting this company for some more work soon.

You won't find a better electrician! Call Robert Bakenhus if you want quality work at a reasonable price!

An electrical power outlet near my fuse panel failed, so I requested quotes on Yelp from nearby electricians.  Ace Electrical had good reviews and offered one of the lower quotes, so we went with them. The electrician arrived on-time and did a great job. I would recommend this company for anyone wanting quality services at a good price.

I was told my quote would be complimentary and then whoever I spoke to went back on his word, thus charging me $175 for not doing any work on my home. Very subjective and unprofessional business practice. Went with A1 Plus Electrical instead who did a much better job diagnosing my problem than Brotherly Love Electric did.

Appointment arrival was on time. Tech was efficient. Installed a Ring Doorbell in about 20 minutes, helped me with the app, showed me a couple of tricks, bells and whistles. Will be calling them again for our business account.

Quick response and got the job done.  Good communication by email.  Thank you!

Very good communication and free estimates.
The technician came right in time and was able to diagnose and solve the problem in the same visit.

Otis and his crew were the only ones out if six local electricians to call me back. They not only were able to get me in the next day, but they arrived ahead of schedule. Otis kept me updated on the price during the process and always thoroughly explained what the issues were. We will 100% call him again and thoroughly recommend him and his crew!

Pete did a great job installing 2 outlets in my garage. He gave me an accurate quote and knew exactly what he was doing. He even came the same day! He was on time, professional, and his price was very reasonable. I am most definitely going to use his services in the future.

When purchasing our house the electrical panel had many issues that needed resolving.  
We are having a shed built out the back with power going to the shed.
William D. came and sorted everything out.  I am very impressed with the results.  The new electrical panel looks great.  
Ran cables to where the slab will be poured for the shed foundation.
Really good experience and would recommend. Thanks!

Cons:
- High 1st hourly rate
- If you don't choose to go with them, they charge you a full hour - very high price for a quote
- Very rude lady who takes billing info
- Contractor let me go to the store for him to exchange a product that he mistaken bought even though, in his mind, it was a flat priced job

Pros:
- Contractor they sent was nice
- Contractor did a good job

Full Story:
I called to get a quote for a 2 part job and the man who answered told me the hourly rates and that when the contractor got there, they could give me an estimate. The quick 10 minute estimate seemed fair and I asked how much the materials portion of the estimate was. Doing some quick math, it came out to be that the estimate was for 2 hours of work based on their hourly rates.

Now, the issues likely arise from miscommunication on both sides as I should have asked specifically but I had assumed that this estimate and work being done was on a time and materials basis based on the prior conversations. They assumed that now that they gave an estimate, it was a flat priced job.

The contractor that was sent was nice and did a good job but had no parts with him. Once he returned from the store, he realized he had gotten the wrong part. Thinking this was a time and material job, I offered to exchange it for him and get the right part. My trip took 40 minutes and he had been finished with the main, more difficult, part of the job for 10 minutes or so. He popped in the exchanged product and finished up within 5 minutes. Total time that the contractor spent quoting and working was between 1 hour and 1:15.

When paying, they initially were going to charge me for 2 hours. I had assumed the cost would be for an hour or at most an hour and half of the contractors time. After talking with the man I originally spoke with, we agreed to an hour and half which is still more than I would have expected especially with consuming my own time. Upon trying to pay with a credit card, the contractor called a woman on speaker phone to take payment details who immediately stated very loudly and rudely that they wouldn't take credit cards from me since I was getting a 'discount'.

I won't be using them again even though the contractor was pretty good.

One year ago I would have never left this review BUT my goodness has this company changed. They installed a water heater for me in early 2020, before the world shut down. Perfect customer service. On 4/6/21, I called because I had an issue with the water heater. I called after 5pm CT because that's when I got home from work  and noticed the issue. Not one person answered. After 4 minutes each time on hold, the recording sends you to a voicemail. After the 3rd time, I left a voicemail. As of 4/7 at 5pm, no one has returned that voicemail. I called separately on the morning of 4/7/21 and was able to get an appointment but no time or time frame. Finally at 4:40pm CT on 4/7 they call to say they can be on their way and to call back. 11 phone calls and 3 text later to Abacus- NOTHING!!!! Straight voicemail and silence. When I finally got thru to a human, it was an answering service that just passed my call to dispatch. Unbelievable!!! Do. Not. Waste. Your. Time.
