I have used American Power before years back and called them even though I had a very small job. I…read morewanted an outlet installed in a closet to recharge my Dyson. The owner had one of the electricians stop at my house on his way home that day to do the job. Tony E. was polite, professional and quick. Within an hour and fifteen minutes after my phone call, my outlet was in and my Dyson was charging. I think that kind of quick service is a record. Thank you American Power. I will be using you again!

I reached out to this company for a quote on installing a whole-home surge protector. They asked me…read moreto send photos of my electrical panel, after which I was quoted $496. When I asked what equipment they would be installing, they sent me a part number. After doing a quick search, I found that the exact device costs about $183-$200 retail. The electrician arrived at 7:33 AM and left at 7:52 AM (verified on my cameras). Despite the installation taking less than 30 minutes, I was still invoiced for the full $496. When I questioned the timeframe and cost, the response I received was simply that I had been quoted that amount. To me, this reflects very poor business ethics. A company should stand behind fair pricing and transparent practices--not charge customers nearly three times the cost of the part for less than half an hour of work, with no willingness to explain the discrepancy. I would not recommend this company, as their practices clearly do not put the customer's interests first.

Cardinal has been the BEST company I've experienced so far at my house. I've also used Action--they…read morewere terrible in comparison. 1st call to Cardinal was in a panic with the sudden loss of AC in a 90 degree day. 5 animals in the home. The person with whom I spoke understood how dangerous of a situation this was and a service person was scheduled that day. 2nd call was for electrical work--not urgent but they happened to be able to squeeze me in on the same day which was probably rare but amazing! Best parts of this experience: 1. Friendly and empathic front team who got me scheduled ASAP. 2. Text prior to the service person's arrival with their pic and some info to help personalize this 'stranger' 3. The service people themselves--extremely competent, focused, and very personable. I only wish they serviced commercial properties so I could have them out to my business!

This makes me wonder what they are charging other people who haven't researched the things they want to the same degree I have. It's almost criminal. Their estimator was very pleasant, though. And their communication is quite good. Maybe that's where the extra $5k is required!!!.... Complete BS
