| - I wish there was a No Star option for the reviews: WARNING: Do not be scammed by this company. They show up with all their fancy laminated pricing cards, trying to get you to join their Mr. Sparky club for $100 in order to get a discount for the services they have yet to perform. For us they wanted $196 just to look at the 2 light switches that were not working properly. That was in addition to the $79 trip fee. Once I questioned the pricing and he discovered I used to be a contractor he was able to give me the 'You're a nice guy' discount and offered to do them both for the price of 1. Then, he didn't have the switches on his truck! I had to go to Lowe's and get them. Once he announced he was done, I checked and they still didn't work. To my surprise he actually said 'Well, I don't know what the issue is but I am not charging you for some of the other stuff I found and fixed" Seriously? What other stuff? The downstairs switch and the upstairs switch were supposed to work the same lights, and they didn't. He then had to call his boss because he was going to get into trouble for spending too much time on this job. Then, when I refused to pay, he miraculously discovered the problem, but needed a different switch, which again he did not have. So it was back to Lowe's for another switch [both I paid for] and the job was done. When I called the office the next day to speak with the supervisor, he tried to blame it on the technician, stating 'he was a new guy'. Well, for a new guy he certainly had the sales pitch down! I did get a partial refund so that was good. The supervisor then said that he would like another opportunity to make things right, so I asked him to take a look at an outside issue I had.....and never heard from them again, despite 2 calls to his office. Obviously they don't want to do any work for anyone who is onto them. Stay away from these con-artists.
