I suggest Alternating Currents Inc. Not sure of the #, look for white sign w/ red lettering around various teardown/remodels.

Ditto on Alternating Currents. their office is over on Hill Avenue east of Glen oak in that small industrial area. They did the work when our basement was finished. Fast, apparently good workmanship, reasonable priced...at least it was three years ago.

How readily available was the group at alternating currents when you tried to line them up. We are hoping to get something done quickly (time vs. money, taking time on this one...)

We have used Curtis Jay a couple of times and he was very quick.

Well, just to give everyone a quick rundown of my electrical situation. We had Alternating Currents do the work, and the workmanship was pretty good. I did have a little bit of trouble getting on the schedule, but it was not really a problem. The demeanor of the electrician on the other hand was not up to my professional standards. The electrician was a tad surly with my wife, which she especially did not appreciate. All in all, I was impressed with there work, but would probably never use the service again based on the demeanor of the electrician. Thanks again for your help though.

I just called Curtis Jay to do some work in my house. I googled him to find out more info and came to this post. Were you happy with his work?

He was fast and I thought gave us a fair price- he had to replace the whole circuit box in our new house...and we have had no trouble- so I have no complaints. He was polite and seemed like a nice guy. For fixing the double taps and replacing the box he was available in days and worked until the job was done and cleaned up after himself.

I used him. Not good. Not good at all. He did not finish the job - did not return my calls and created a mess for the next electrician. I very very very unhappy!
