Best Panel Updates in Columbus OH

Mr. Electric tried to cheat and get away with sub-quality work. They quoted a 200-Amp Panel replacement. My guess is the technician saw the house in transition (pending sale) and saw the concerned elderly former owner as an opportunity to install a 150-Amp panel and breaker, fail to label the new circuits, not leave any free breakers, and fail to communicate any of this to any party involved. Adding to the shady character: to date (yes, the drama is not over 2 weeks later) they failed to pull a permit for the job and still billed for one (and denied this), never followed up for a date to get the work inspected, repeatedly failed to return phone calls, and the technician avoided ownership of most of these issues, and avoided answering questions. They also denied needing to fix the problem that caused the need for replacement in the first place (water leaking into the panel from the outside mast/meter).I give one star beyond the minimum since they were very punctual initially, and the manager at least acknowledged the problems and made one attempt to remedy. The tech came back and did replace the 150-Amp breaker for a 200-Amp, and did a 70% job of labeling the new panel. Since then I have been promised a call back and even called in myself and have gotten no answer for days.I have lost faith in this technician/manager pair, who have given the company a bad name.UPDATE:The manager finally got back to me after I threatened to call the city. He came out and was fairly professional, fixed most of the problems I still had. But I can tell that if I had not left work to meet him and hold him to every word, he would have left skimping out on as much as possible again. I burned about 2 hours of work doing this, and I doubt they would even think to apologize. Rating is still staying at 2 stars.

I’m in the real estate business so I work with various home contractors. I had an outstanding experience with Bob at Arlington Electric at my own home. He was prompt in responding, did excellent work, was friendly, professional and was very reasonable in price. I would never hesitate to use his services again. And I would most certainly recommend him to any home buyer or seller of mine who need electric work done.

John and his team installed a new electrical panel for my food truck. They did a great job and hooked me up perfectly. Would highly recommend them, they offer great prices and are quick to install.
