    Complaint Type:
    Service or Repair Issues
    Status:
    Answered
    On 11-9-2021, Dependable Electric installed a new Electrical Panel and Weatherhead/Service Entrance.(Paid in full $3000) I requested, received and accepted a proposal for additional electrical work including new outlets, cleaning up wiring and troubleshooting and fixing wiring on two back to back GFCI outlets (kitchen & bathroom). On 11-10-21, the work was to be completed in my home. While the additional work was in progress I was told that I would have to pay an additional $600 to have the wiring fixed relating to the kitchen/bathroom outlets itemized on the second proposal. I called Mike Azzarello, the owner questioning this and he responded by yelling at me and aggressively berating me, saying the job was taking more time than expected and how I was trying to take advantage of him when I said I didn't have  an additional $600! He then threatened to have his workers rip out the already installed electrical wiring. Taken aback by his tone, level of disrespect and threats, I politely ended the phone call. I did not agree to the bullying tactics from the owner for extra money on promised work and asked the workers to please put the outlets back the way they were previously (useable outlets)... Instead, my house was left without a functioning outlet in the bathroom, and another outlet was completely removed leaving the wires sticking out of the wall in the adjacent kitchen (my GFCI outlet was gone as well). All of the work from the second proposal was NOT completed as promised yet I paid the initial quoted price in full. (Paid in full $1800) The owner, Mike Azzarello, was condescending, intimidating and extremely unprofessional making this expensive electrical work, an unpleasant experience overall.

    We called this company to update and replace wiring and circuitry in our 70+ year house. They had to replace and install new ceiling fan for the dinette area. They installed new GFCI's in 4 areas, installed 7 new 120 v circuits, installed 7 20 amp breakers in the main panel. The workers were on time, courteous, and explained everything. We would recommend them to our friends and family.
