Excellent service! First time using Independent Electrical Services. Will definitely use them when…read moreI need an electrician again. The owner, Dave came out to estimate the small job. I needed an outlet installed for a new tankless water heater that I was planning to have installed. As I was getting estimates for the new tankless water heater, my old water heater started leaking a lot of water into my laundry/utility room, so I needed to act quickly. When he came out to estimate the outlet installation he asked if I had found a plumber yet for the water heater installation. I told him I had an estimate from a local company but I thought it was kind of high. The two other plumbers who I had estimates from we are no longer able to take the job because of staffing issues due to COVID-19. Dave said he knew a good plumber and called him on the spot. He FaceTimed so that the plumber could see the job. The plumber he recommended was able to give me an estimate within a couple of hours. And came in $700 lower than the previous plumbers estimate. Plus he could do the job the very next day. Hurray! The plumber that Dave recommended came out and did a great job on the tankless water heater installation! They worked in a tight space in an old house and even were able to run my vents up through an attic and crawlspace and out behind a chimney so that they cannot be seen from the front of the house. Then Independent Electric Services came out and did a perfect job on the outlet installation for which I had originally contacted them. If I had not called Independent Electric Services I would've spent more money on my water heater and I would probably still be trying to get the job done. Dave made it happen fast, competently, and at a great price! I cannot recommend this company enough.

He was able to fix a glass shower door no one else had been able to fix (but claimed they could, instead they made it worse) in just 5 minutes , and helped me understand my lighting system, set up my new Litter robot and assess a few other items, being very honest about what was and wasn't in his wheelhouse. Will definitely bring him back for more projects we discussed. He is polite, very efficient, cleans up after his work, kind and honest.

I hired Schumann Electric after looking at his overwhelming positive reviews to address panel…read moreconcerns. He reached out immediately, was professional in interactions and was prompt in his work. The work area was generally kept neat too. I found Schumann Electric expensive, but most trades are these days. Several years have past and I found myself having to troubleshoot several issues, including a dead GFCI. After confirming the GFCI was actually okay, I found that the neutral was open. I verified continuity through junction boxes and traced the issue back to the panel Schumann Electric replaced where he triple tapped the neutral / ground bar at this location. The neutral was open because it became loose. The wire had become hot due to the high impedance of the poor triple tapped connection. For those unaware, this is how fires start. A circuit breaker will not protect you with a high impedance / poor connection as it knows nothing about the nature of the load. It'll protect you from drawing too much current, but it knows nothing about if that current is turning into heat at a poor connection. This is why this is not allowed for most panels, including parts he installed. While in the panel, I found multiple instances of the neutral / ground bar being double or triple tapped. I also found a couple of instances of double tapped breaker hots - also not allowed. You can separately google this to confirm my statements. An investigation of metal junction boxes Schumann Electric installed showed that the box was not grounded. In installations with metal boxes, it is not enough to ground the receptacle - the box must be tied to ground too for safety and parasitic capacitance reasons. This is a small infraction compared to the multiple tapped bars and breakers, which were a clear danger to the fire safety of the house, it's occupants, and property. I expected better from a licensed electrician and for the steep money I paid. Not at all impressed. Infuriating really, considering the safety and property implications.

Had them at my house twice. First time, price didn't seem too bad. Minor job and I know some…read moreelectricians can be expensive. Second time, had them come to install some light fixtures. They broke one of the flush mount glass shades during install and didn't tell me. I thought I had heard something but assumed it was something much less severe and didn't notice it for a few days afterwards. Luckily I was able to get supplier to replace the glass dome free of charge. I didn't mention it to them because the supplier took care of it but there is NO WAY they weren't aware of what happened. They had another job cancel so I had them replace a bunch of fluorescent bulb "office" type fixtures in my basement. At my house for less than 6 hours, taking into account the cost of materials, I believe the hourly rate worked out to about $500+/hr per guy. Considering I gave them work to fill in many hours that were actually cancelled on them, I don't want to say they took advantage but I certainly didn't receive any consideration for what would have been a wasted afternoon. For the basement lights, I wasn't charged by the hour but a flat rate per light replaced which turned out to be outrageous. Also, they left me approximately 15-20 fixtures that I had to figure out how to dispose. The work was completed nicely but the way they charge is a bit crazy and the broken fixture and "good luck" with disposal were very disappointing. I'll look elsewhere next time.
