Best Sub Panels in Charlotte NC

FYI: You have to pay a dispatch fee to even get an estimate. We wanted smart home smoke detectors installed, which I now know maybe isn’t their area of expertise, but their estimate was shockingly more than a competitor ($4500 from Mr Sparky vs $600 elsewhere). Maybe their pricing is fair for more complicated electrical work, but for our job, it was downright ridiculous. (Also, they notified me they were “on the way” but showed up 2 hours later. I lost my whole morning waiting.)

Good experience with Bates Electric.

Brad was friendly, professional and explained things I wasn’t aware of and in an easy way to understand. Would recommend them and will use them again.

Called Bates Electric for a quote on panel replacement/upgrade and wiring (entire house rewired). Every other electrician I called refused to come out and look at the job until I gave them a deposit; they all wanted to charge me several thousand dollars before they even looked at the job, without having any idea what was needed. Bates came out, took a look around the house, and provided me with a very reasonable quote. Before I accepted it, they even found a mistake in an original drawing of my house that saved me several thousand dollars! This was my first time using Bates Electric and it won't be my last. Thank you!

This isn’t a review about the business itself but we saw this company’s van parked at the gas station and the men in the van was watching us very creepily as we were putting on our coverups in our car (we just came from the lake). then they waited for us to come back out of QT and get in our car before leaving
