$945 for less than 4 hours & $20 materials !!!
In preparation for adding a peninsula to our kitchen, we arranged for Tyler with Electric Avenue to split one electrical outlet into three - all within 2 feet of the original.
While the work was done to our satisfaction, in retrospect, the amount paid for this service was astonishingly high, compared to what other electricians and tradesmen's have since suggested.
We paid $945 for a job that lasted less than four hours and consumed approx $20 of materials. Over $200 an hour for moving 110 V electrical boxes is way outside the industry norm as we now understand it. An email sent to the company has not been acknowledged. We would definitely not recommend this company.
- Approximate cost of services:
- $944.84

Unfortunately the scope and material value of the work has not been correctly represented in the review. The work done was and charged for was within industry standards or above, and with a very high level of customer service, and transparency . Prior to starting any work we provide the customer with the cost of the proposed work. Only upon the approval of the client do we proceed with the proposed work. The reason we do this is to to be an ethical contractor and protect our valued clients from surprised costs. We do not try to be the "cheapest" contractor around since this would cheat our customers of the ability to use high quality materials and customer service. We try to be the most ethical and upfront contractor around with the most experienced and professional electricians in the industry. Any contractor given limited details of an installation after the fact and when they have no opportunity for getting the job is likely to say what the person wants to hear "that they have overpaid for a job" to gain a chance at future work. We appreciate all of our customers and know that without our valued customers we would not be in business.
