I usually don't give bad reviews but this is very unacceptable.
We've been contacting Greg to fix some electrical problems in the new house, he came to the house and check and gave us the price he charges, great. and told us most of the jobs are easy job.
Today, we're about to start the job, he came in the morning, we walked through the projects and discuss possibility to fix couple things, and finally he told us there are couple projects he is not able to charge his hourly rate, and will be much higher. We requested him to give us an estimate which we have never received, he said he had to go back to his office to send us the estimate so he would come back to start the project. 10 mins later, an email arrived said he's walking away from the project because he has two bigger project lined up.
At this point, we have our contractors here ready to start fixing the ceiling and the walls, but without fixing all the electrical we can't do anything and the contractor was already there at the house when Greg walked away from the project, it delayed our other project and we had to find another electrician to do the work.
Greg is very unprofessional, walking away from the project the same day when we want him to start. Maybe he is a good electrician but his attitude is bad, we tried to call him back and he sent us straight to the voice mail. If he walk away couple days ago we had enough time to find another time, but after all week of emailing/calling and he walk away from the job, glad he is his own boss, otherwise I would complain to have him fired.
It's just a friendly suggestion to others who are about to use Greg, maybe consider he might walk away from your project too. Not saying don't go from Greg maybe he will treat you different depends on his mood, but make sure you have a backup plan.
