Best Outlet Repair in Charlotte NC

I have wanted recessed lights in my home for sometime now.  I asked around and Johnathan Brown Electric was recommended to me.  I called and set up an appointment for one of their electricians to come out and take a look.  The receptionist that answered the phone was polite and friendly!   The day before my in-home estimate they emailed to remind me of the appointment.  Good communication on their part!  
Matthew arrived well within the 2 hour window they had given me.  He was also very friendly, professional and polite.  After our walkthrough and his recommendations I decided to move forward with the Price he Quoted and he was able to do the installation right then and their!  I was very pleased with this and it absolutely met my expectations!  
I will mention that because of an old light fixture that was originally placed above my Kitchen sink at the time my home was built there is still a little bit of patch up work to be done on my part to make the necessary repairs.  However the work that Matthew did was excellent, he installed 2 ultra thin recessed lights, 1 of which was replacing the old fixture I mentioned and the other one in a spot above the oven where there was no fixture before! he also upgraded 1 of my dimmable light switches in my guest bathroom.
I am so pleased that I have actually already made an additional appointment for him to come and add a recessed light above my newly renovated shower!  Matthew definitely knows what he is doing and he does it with ease.  At the end of the day I trust him!  So thank you!

Shawn and his team were ok to work with initially, but as time went on the quality of the work deteriorated and he was rude, disrespectful, and unprofessional. We had a dispute about the terms of our agreement (I admit largely because I didn't realize the terms of the new contract had changed from a previous agreement), however, because of that dispute Sphysicallyhawn and his guys resorted to cursing me including racial slurs (**tch *ss nword), threatening to physically assault me and then abandoning work which was incomplete -and- which I had already paid for($3000).

As far as the work itself was concerned: the fit and finish were sub-standard, every outlet was deformed (one corner bulging out of the wall) (one was put in upside down [switch up was off], one was wired to an overhead light (the outlet doesn't work unless the light is on). When I asked Shawn to correct the deficiencies he refused saying if I wanted him to make something look good, I could forget it. To his credit: earlier on...one of the large windows they installed leaked four or five days after it was installed. I called him, sent him a video of the window leaking and he came out the next morning and caulked it and blamed one of his employees for being derelict. The roof they installed: one corner of it was lifting a week after they left. I did send him a picture (included) of the substandard work.

To his credit: he offered to come and look at it. I ignored the offer based on his track record, previous approach, and lack of work quality. True to form, he resorted to threatening me he would report me to code enforcement, calling me a **tch, etc. (I have the text messages). The final dispute: I contracted with him to move a window and install a door where the window had been. He quoted me, and we agreed on a price ($3500) and I paid him ($7000-- window and a small deck). Previously, the terms of the agreement had been 100% for materials and 50% for labor upfront.

During the window installation, one of his employees asked me for the money ($275) that he spent on materials. I was surprised and told him that I had paid for all the materials up front but I would speak to Shawn about it. Before I had the chance to speak to him about it he sent me several text messages demanding that I pay the $275... I paid for it! However, as I reflected on it that evening I decided that I was fed up with all the drama and decided to cancel the remaining portion of the contract the next day.
Because I canceled the remaining work the next morning: Shawn told them to leave the window and door unfinished (pictures included). When I reminded him that I had already paid for the job, he said that I had paid him to install the door and window/not to finish it.Since I was canceling the rest of the project, I should hire a finish carpenter.  

I was cursed by Shawn and his employee and verbally threatened by one of his employees (over $50 he said he had spent on materials that morning). At no time did I dispute the $50, and in fact said I would send the money by Zelle in the next couple of minutes. The situation culminated in loud cursing by Shawn and his employee and in fact, the employee rushed toward me Zelleas if he intended to assault me. Among the verbal assaults was Shawn accusing me of being a fool who served in the military of a country that had enslaved me, and on and on. I repeatedly asked them to please stop cursing, to lower their voices, and finally to please leave.

Not ten minutes later, he called me...apologizing for his employee and expressing a willingness to complete the part of the project that I had canceled. etc. etc. I said I would think about it (largely because he was holding $3500 of my money). Shortly afterward he returned $600. I firmly believe he did so, in an attempt to show something (goodwill?) that would encourage me to allow them to finish the project.

Of course, I declined to spend another penny with his company. In fact, I'm currently waiting for a reputable roofing company to look at the roof. With what I have seen from the work thus far, I'm preparing myself that the roof might have to be completely ripped off and replaced.
Everything written here is the absolute god's honest truth.  It took a couple of months to process this regretful episode and to get my window sub-standard, and the hole that Shawn left in the side of my house fixed. When I looked at his company's reviews again to understand what I had missed in reviewing the company. I was shocked to see that he had illegally posted pictures of both -me and my house- on Yelp without my permission or a release.
Because I found his company through a Yelp review initially, I wanted to return to Yelp to share my frank and completely honest personal experience.

Finally Caveat Emptor.

Bobby of LiveWire Electrical came within an hour of us contacting him for the first time, based on his other 4-star Yelp reviews. He was courteous and proficient in analyzing our problem and recommended a practical solution. His price was reasonable too. We will definitely call on him again.

Gianni reached out to me after hours and helped resolved electrical problems! What a life saver! The invoices before coming out were transparent and informative. No hidden fees and no surprises. Quotes were communicated clearly with photos and a full report before any work was to be done. I highly recommend.

Bill is the best! We really lucked out finding Bill. We just bought an older house and it had A LOT of issues that came up in the inspection and that we found as we moved in... bare wires in the wall, 3-way switches that weren't running correctly, a garage that no power was running to. The electrician our realtor set us up with originally said we'd need to replace our entire subpanel and main control panel ($$$) for the house and that the garage wouldn't work until we did... Bill got it working within 20 minutes of being at the house on his initial visit!

Bill is so thorough and likely saved us from our house burning down. We mentioned in passing we may want a gas stove at some point so he took a look at our oven plug to see if it would be able to support that and found a crumbling black plug in the wall. He also found our water heater wire had the wrong gauge wire and was melting, he put junction boxes on exposed wiring in the crawlspace, replaced breakers in our panels, crawled up in our tiny attic and installed fan boxes for upstairs bedrooms, and so much more! Seriously we can't recommend him enough - cleans up after himself, is punctual, polite, and creative when it comes to old houses that may not always be able to accommodate original plans. The wireless switches and hub are awesome for that. Customers for life!

Chad was great - responsive, reliable, thorough. Friendly and gave me a few extra pointers before he left. Would definitely recommend.

EM Electric provides the most straightforward and honest estimates. Evan is the most hard working and knowledgeable electrician I have met. He is a great listener and troubleshooter. He will not rest until work is done to satisfaction. Rates are very reasonable and results are outstanding!

Roman is such a nice guy! He came exactly when he said on a Saturday evening. The business is called Asap and he lives by it. My wife asked him if I needed you at 2:00am would you come ? He said if it was an emergency, sure.  I called him about 7:30pm, he was here and done by 8:45!! Small job, but it needed an electrician. Quick clean professional work! Use this man!

Y'all, if I could give Josh from Blue Collar 10 stars, I would! We had an electrical issue on Sunday of Memorial Day weekend. I just went down the line on Yelp and called 15 different electricians... Josh responded quickly, and was over at my house within a couple hours. Quickly got to the bottom of the issue, which was with power IN to the house, helped me call Duke Energy to explain the problem and make sure they dispatched a lineman, and followed up several times over the afternoon and evening to make sure we were okay and all squared away. And even though he could have gouged me on a holiday, he charged me a more than reasonable rate while providing great service. I would absolutely recommend them for all your electrical and HVAC needs (he is licensed for both)!!

Luis was fantastic! Asked questions during the estimate, took great notes because he never asked me the same question twice. His workers took great care in making sure the work area was spotless when they were done. We had just moved in and had 12 fixtures we wanted to replace. 4 were high ceilings and the foyer fixture was very high. Luis had no problem! Job came in on estimate no surprises and all were finished the same day. We'll be doing some work in the house this year and will definitely use Honesty Electric again.

Chris took two days just to get back to me.  His unprofessionalism during our phone conversation made me realize this is definitely not someone I want working on or in my home.  
I have no idea where these good yelp reviews came from.......

Have referred them to a number of people, all of whom have been really happy with the service they received.  Prompt, knowledgeable, friendly and professional.  Nice to have a list of local service providers that you can trust when you need them.

Fantastic company doing excellent work. Very nice team and very communicative, arrived when they said they would and fixed my issue quickly and knowledgeably. Very great company, I recommend them 10/10 and would absolutely call them the next time I have an issue. Thanks Rickey and Phoenix Electrical Solutions!

My bathtub won't stop running water. Murad came on time and he fixed everything as desired. Now everything is working well. I would call him again if I encounter any issue in the future

The electrician, John, was very friendly and extremely helpful. He made sure the job was done right before he left. He cleaned up afterwards also.

This is one of the best electrical companies in this region! The high quality work is unmatched.  Commercial and residential electrical work.

I have used Jim Dickerson plumbing over the years, however will not use their services any longer. They over charge for labor and the cost of repairs. I had someone come out for 2 plumbing issues.. A leaking sink and tub. I was charged 3 hours of labor for sealing a leak under the kitchen sink and an attempt to repair the tub leak. The tub leak was not able to be fixed because of the need to replace a valve. The technician spent hours trying to find the water source in the house and then left to go get parts to attempt to repair the tub leak. I was charged 441.00 for labor and the cost of repairing the leak under the sink which was sealed.
After sending a request to speak with the technician to find out exact details of the work, their accounting department sent a return email only that stated they overcharged for the work done and credited 200.00. The total cost still remained at 288.00. I was charged for the time the tech left and attempted to find a part for work that was not completed. After knowing their inconsistency in their work, I will no longer use their services. Very disappointed.

Don't do business with this company. Once a defective light was installed for $225. They refused to take it down for less than $185. Puts my cost at over $1000 for the light and installation. Do not use this company under any circumstances. If I could give 0 stars I would.  No sir the light was not working well when your technicians were there, and when I needed it taken down you refused to do anything but charge me an additional $185 to have it removed. No offer from you other than full price. No worries though I tripped the breakers and took it down by myself in 5-10 minutes. It was really hard. I can understand the $185 price tag when an unskilled person such as myself can do it in 5-10 minutes. Thank you so much and I will assure no one I know and do business will ever use your service. Your a real gem. Good job.
