By Laurie M.November 23, 2022replace 8 lights and 5 smoke detectors
Electrician Adam Moore, and one other electrician who stated he was learning and could he come in with Adam, they replaced 8 lights one was a ceiling fan and replaced 5 smoke detectors and charged me $1,400.00. and said they worked from 0800 (they charge for driving time) until 12:35. I complained and their boss Scott and he came to my home to look at the job. Scott talked to his employees and told me by voice mail that he agreed with the time/work/ bill.
I would not use this company for anything. Scott told me the second electrician was not learning and they needed 2 persons for the job so one could hold the latter for the ceiling fan. They charge 140.00 per hour per person plus extras. I am a senior citizen and I feel they took advantage of me. don't let them do that to you.
