Best Meter Services in Philadelphia PA

I contacted Greg about my repairs, but,  unfortunately I am out of his service area. He did, however, respond to me with great advice and guidelines(which he didn't have to do) that I really needed. I followed them to the letter and can't thank Greg enough. With his help, I'm convinced I was able to find a very good electrician, whose not out to rob me.
Thanks Greg

As a business owner for over 20 years I have seen a lot of self employed people come and go. What makes a good company survive while others flounder ??  A good product, a good price, and standout people that you can know and trust..

  I had used Lauterborn Electric once for a job (over a year ago) and I was happy with the upfront, honest and friendly way in which they presented a resolve to my issue. They did a good enough job that I referred them to a friend....who was happy that I did.

 I REALLY needed the Lauterborn Electricricians when I recently had a fire in my place of business. Larry Lauterborn answered his phone (which is a good indication of how their business is run) and he began to help that day with advice on what steps to take in my situation. They came out the next day with a quote for the repairs and when I agreed, they started the following day. I could blah blah blah you with all the details but I think you get where it's going.

 He has his 2 sons that work for him also and its nice to see that they are walking right in his footsteps. Kudos to you Larry, you are a good electrician and an even  better role model for your well mannered boys.
 

Can't speak highly enough about the company and I won't be calling anyone else for electrical work.

I needed some minor electric work done at my house to get a U&O Permit.

While these guys did the work properly and were friendly enough, their rates appear to be made up on the spot, with no breakdown of cost, and are ridiculously high.

They wanted $150 just to put in a panel directory, and charged me $800 for relatively minor electrical work. I didn't know any better, and was just desperate to get the certification at the time, but even the inspector suggested I was ripped off at that rate.

..reply  to buisness response:

I asked for a breakdown of the cost at the time of the estimate, after finding out you guys wanted $150 for the directory, just to find out if there was something else I could take  out to DIY and save money. Your employee told me they don't have that, and it's just a general amount for the work in total.

If I knew you were charging $255 just to change a 20watt breaker to a 15w, I definitely  would have done that myself. Not sure why only after a bad review I'm
getting this breakdown, when I asked for it before.

This is a larger electrical company. They used our house as an employee training center and we had a few unexperienced new electricians doing the work with one experienced professional electrician supervising. So they use the better employees for commercial jobs and train their new employees on residential jobs. I will not get into the details of their work, but would recommend if you decide to use this company that you explain to them that you do not want your house used to train their new employees.

For the premium price we paid we did not get premium service.
