Comments: Overall I rate this guy a 2
He is a ride dude
Work quality not too good
Charge me almost$300 to fix a light and replace a gfcj switch.
He was on time.
I gave Lancelot an upfront price before the work was started, he said he couldn’t afford it, I offered him a $25.00 discount and he said “go ahead and do the work”, originally he had his own light fixture for the closet but it was the wrong one, the light switch for it was in another room, I had the correct light fixture with a pull chain switch on my van, I went in the other room and disconnected the switch, respliced the wires and supplied / installed a blank plate and closet light, I also disconnected a standard outlet in the downstairs kitchen and supplied/ Installed a GFI but the wood paneling wasn’t cut to the correct size, I had to cut an opening ing the wall wood-panel so the GFI outlet would fit in, he signed a contract at the beginning of the job then he signed it again at the end of the job that he accepted the work and he was happy with it, he made no mention to me he was unhappy, he thanked me for taking care of his electrical issue, then he wrote a check and payed me, we shook hands, I told him I was glad able to help him, I’m not sure why he has a negative attitude but he did mention to me he was trying to sell the house and the inspector told him “get the work done”, Lancelot said he didn’t want to put a lot of money in a house he’s selling, he only spent $300.oo on 2 residences, that’s really good

Work Description: exterior lighting

Comments: I was pleased that the contractor set an appointment with me very quickly , but neglected to tell me there would be a $175 show up fee whether any work done or not.

The technician came at the time promised and was very capable. He diagnosed the problem and recommended repplacement lighting and a path way solution that I felt was perfect. He completed replacing the 5 exterior house lamps that morning and committed to the pathway light solution a soon as the parts were delivered.

I believe I have been charged too much for the exterior lights installed and the pathway solution is more than i expected, but i could not get competitive estimates because of the up front $175 sunk cost and getting another estimate would have meant additional sunk costs.

Work Description: breaker and clock repair for inground pool.

Comments: First visit was good. Scheduled to come back because part had to be ordered. Didnt show up so I called and Vince said oh was that today. So he told me he would send someone by 1:30. Well another call came with another excuse now was told 3:00 in the afternoon. He finally made it the third time. He said he turned off the breaker so the pump wouldnt come on since we need a part for it before we can run it. Only to get up the next morning to a flooded yard and our pool drained 7 inches. Now I call to tell him what he did and he says we went back and turned it on are you kidding me. I now have to spend another 225.00 dollars to replace the water after paying him a high price for his work. I would never recommend him to anyone.L Richard
troubleshoot and diagnosed the pool pump problem the same day we were scheduled only had another job before hers and ran a few hours behind, it's hard to pinpoint an exact time but was in constant contact with her for updates, replaced 2 pole GFI Breaker at outside panel, also time clock for pump was bad, I replaced it, set current time and explained in detail on operation of it, we were done before 5:00 PM, we all left together at the same time time and pump was not on (if it was you can hear a loud humm) also time clock was set for 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, even if the breaker was on the pump would not go on until 8:00 AM, she called me about 9:00 AM saying there water in her back yard because breaker was left on, (she did not have her filter bolted on because she had another repairman there that left it like that, I don't do filters, also it doesn't make sense in one hour losing 7 inches in an in-ground swimming pool, when we left, the breaker was off, 3 of us were standing right at the pump when The 3 of us left, me my helper and the owner, breaker was definitely off, the job went smooth, no complications and it was done in a timely manner, BTW when I priced the job out, 4 days prior, the bolt to the filter tank lid was missing back then, Plummer only needed to get one small bolt to properly seal it

Work Description: The Main breaker, which I could not find as it was outside and hidden to me, popped, and all power was down.
The electrical receptacle in the kitchen is not GFCI safety protected.
The 125-amp electrical service panel does not appear to be proper.
One AC socket had no 120v output.

Comments: I consider myself blessed to have come across your site and to have Vince DiBartolo of Powerhouse Electric do the work. He was like "Johnnie on the spot".
Besides being a nice guy in talk and appearance Steve is very professional and knows what he is doing. Steve fixed all of the above problems in a timely and professional way. He replaced the Main breaker as that should not have blown. I tried to be Mr. Electric guy and got clumsy which blew the Main breaker.
I would call him again, in a heartbeat, if I needed more electrical work done.
Thank you John, glad to be of service and able to resolve those issues for you, I do appreciate the business, thank you for calling me
