wurds.... ummm, words and more wordz
Contacted through Angi showed up did work without quoting first. Job was to terminate 1, 4/3 cable which was already purchased and installed, took 2.5 hours to terminate 1 drop charged me 740 for a job that at most should have cost 300, stay away from this company
I contacted this company to terminate 1 4/3 armored cable. I purchased and installed the cable myself, he arrived did the work before telling me what it would cost,once completed he charged me 740 which is utterly rediculous "With what I had to work with I had to do what I did to meet code and make safe That didn't need that armor size cable nor did it need to be #4 size, that went into adding to the time it took to do it correctly..." is what he said so apparently 4/3 is to much for him to be able to terminate easily, he needed to add a washer and supply a breaker took him 2.5 hours, find someone else
Fast Prompt and courteous. I would hire again
They are very nice and polite guys did a very good job thank you Rodney.

Standard receptacle swaps — a new dedicated circuit is a bigger job ($350–$750).
Flush mounts, pendants, chandeliers — hung on existing boxes.
