    Replaced receptacle

    Ian and his partner are the diamond in the rough. They are honest, reliable, knowledgeable, timely and great communicators. Kama'aina is very appropriate for the way they treat every and the high quality of work.

    New washer/dryer
    Greg S.

    I needed an electrician to install a 110V outlet in my washer/dryer closet for the replacement LG washer and dryer I just purchased (compact space with failing Bosch Axxis units that run on 220V; the only manufacturer that still runs all units on EU voltage). Ian and Kawika did an awesome job in very little time . Because we had a quality electrical contractor on-site , we asked them to upgrade our exterior lighting which has been a 'pain in the butt' and very scary for so many years. They fixed all and had to deal with messed up conduit and wiring sunk into concrete and major rock formations. They did incredible work in short time and I am so grateful that we have folks in our neighborhood that excel like this.

    Over the phone, Ian warned me that a new junction box may require a ceiling repair after the installation.

    Excellent service. Came right away although it was not an emergency. Honored quoted service fees…read more Stayed all day to complete the job.

    We hired E I Electrical to replace a few switches in our condo because our previous electrician was…read moreacquired by this company. They were able to come and inspect the work within a short notice and provided us with an on-site estimate. Everything seemed satisfactory until I was informed that the estimate would include a yearly fee for any future work. This fee would automatically provide us with a built-in discount for subsequent services. This was the first indication that something was amiss. Why would I want to pay an annual fee for work that had already been completed? Another peculiar aspect of their pricing was the flat rate fixed price for each item. They offered a similar approach to car repairs, where a flat rate is charged for parts like a quarter panel or hood. For an outlet in a switch, they had a flat fixed rate. They assured us that this included labor and materials. However, they failed to mention that they sourced the cheapest possible materials. They also stated that I could purchase the materials myself, but I lacked the time to do so. Consequently, I ended up having cheap switches, even though the price seemed exorbitant in my opinion. Given the urgency of the project, I had no choice but to agree. However, this is when the problems began. The project was initially promised to be completed in a day and a half or two at the most. Surprisingly, it took four days to complete the work. They arrived at the site by midday every day and proceeded to shop for materials for that day. Essentially, they had four half-day workdays. The workmanship was rated a 4.5 out of 10 on a scale of 1 to 10. The finish work was quite disappointing. They made numerous holes and neglected to save the drywall pieces to fit them back in, leaving me with a mess of mismatched drywall. They claimed they didn't typically put it back, but they didn't inform me of this when I agreed to hire them. To make matters worse, when I tried to reach the office staff or another representative they initially mistook me for a salesperson or someone trying to hassle me until I proved my identity as a customer. This was quite frustrating. It seemed like they prioritized their profits over my satisfaction. The phone representative kept talking and refused to listen. I don't believe he knew how to listen effectively. Fortunately, I received a call from the owner one day. He was quite pleasant, but it was evident that he has a personnel issue. I would never hired this company again and would never recommend them to anyone. On top of the shoddy work and unethical behavior, they attempted to double-charge me for my services. I noticed a second charge for a similar amount on my credit card, and initially, they denied it. I insisted they investigate the matter, as I had sent them a screenshot of my credit card. Eventually, they admitted to the mistake reversed the charges. Neither the owner nor the project manager called to apologize. In my opinion, their work, ethics, and overall business practices are extremely sloppy, unfriendly to customers, and unprofessional.

    Excellent Service When We Needed It Most!…read more Sparky and Sons came to our rescue just 30 minutes after I called them, the morning after Hurricane Lala came through! I was dealing with an electrical crisis, and they were able to come out right away when so many people were understandably dealing with storm-related problems. As it turned out, the biggest issues were because HECO had not yet restored our full power. Even so, Sparky and Sons provided a safe temporary fix to get us through. They were knowledgeable, thorough, professional, and, best of all, genuinely pleasant to deal with. I will definitely call them again, and I highly recommend Sparky and Sons to anyone looking for great service, without having to wait until Christmas to get it! Thank you, Sparky and Sons, for coming through when we really needed you!

    Mahalo nui loa to Clayton and his team!! Excellent service with incredible attention to detail,…read morevery friendly and a masterful technician. We have a pretty sizable house that needed a LOT of work, and he was able to diagnose and educate us on what regulatory requirements needed to be met, very quickly. We had outlets replaced and updated as needed, assistance with light fixtures and ceiling fans, and a couple electrical issues corrected. Some of this happened to coincide with a power outage, so he even came back after it was over to double check everything! Mahalo for going above and beyond for us!! 10/10 recommend and will never use another electrician company again!
