Any recommendations for a reputable, dependable electrician?
I may even take one who will actually return a phone call as the #1 criteria rather than being reputable, I am beginning to lower my standards of expectations.
Examples:
Electrician #1 - recommended by several; placed a call about 2 weeks ago. He answered immediately, was very nice on the phone, and said, yes I can do that work and will come out this week. No show and no return calls. I called and left 2 messages, no return calls.
Electrician #2 - have used before, great work, have left 2 messages. No return calls.
Electrician #3 - Decided I would bite the bullet and pay the normally higher service from a chain out of Raleigh. Great reviews on-line; very professional and helpful over the phone. Made an appointment, even called during the week to confirm - then took off work early to be here. You guessed it - no show and no call.
If you have a son/daughter who is seeking a profession - seems like this is the one as apparently there is so much work to be had nobody actually has to show any customer service to stay busy. Rant over......
