I hired Bruce to redo the meter box at my rental property on an emergency basis after a recent…read morestorm. He promptly gave me a proposal and assured me he could do it quickly within 4 days. When it came time to schedule he was not able to do it when he said he would and then proceeded to lie to me blaming HELCO for the reason. It was confirmed with HELCO that it was him causing the delay and that he had given them the reason that he did not have all the parts. He forgot to pay for the permit and it took him some time to schedule the final only after my phone call. He told my tenant that it was going to fail because it wasn't grounded and would need a new wire to the house (another 5K). At the time of the inspection he had not finished the job as he had more parts to install. He failed his part of the requirements (no plans or permit posted on site ) I paid his high price for an emergency service that was not completed on an emergency basis.

We recently did a complete rehab on one of our rentals, and Rick was a tremendous help. We had to put in a new electric meter, and he coordinated the entire thing with HELCO, and installed the new meter and the required upgrades for housing the meter. He also helped with a number of inside issues, including wiring that needed replacement. We were impressed, and pleased, with how reasonable the cost was for all of this. Mahalo.

I…read morecalled to schedule an appointment and was told there was a travel fee of $185 +20 for an extra 4 miles, I was OK with that. The couple that came was husband and his wife joined, since it was at my home. They spent several hours diagnosing and I was told I needed to replace the motor, I ordered the motor and called the company back to schedule an appointment to install my motor. I heard back a week later via a voice message which started with "I am married "which is creepy unprofessional, and very uncomfortable so I kept my distance while Rod was installing the motor. I would normally watch to make things were doing done properly. Rod finished installing the motor and left four screws out! I asked where do they belong no answer! I sent emails complaining about the screws and they just brushed me aside and will not acknowledge the problem. I explained that it's similar to not securing the footings when you're building a home. My bill for diagnosing was $266 which Rod and his wife Tamy said, included their time, I paid the bill. The bill for installing the motor was $428.09 one person 45 minutes, there seems to be a major discrepancy financially here. This was one of the most uncomfortable, nonprofessional companies I've ever dealt with and Jamie . The office manager is a bully to boot. I really don't want to pay them a penny however, I will pay them something but certainly the fee they're asking for which they did not tell me upfront. I've been trying to file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau to resolve this matter. However, the website is down. I will not give up.
