    I phoned Tyler at Electric Avenue in regards to my under cabinet lighting installation. However, I am feeling uneasy with the price that I paid for his services. What was supposed to be a free quote turned into me spending $270 and left me feeling that I was taken advantage of. I believe the work conducted does not equal the money paid for his services. I agreed to have Tyler extend the wiring into so that we could add another puck light for our under cabinet lighting. Tyler did less than 5 minutes of work, cut more holes in my wall than needed and put an approximate 3 foot wire in my wall and looped it out another hole. The wire he had “installed” also isn't near the area that he had marked as centre. I was also under the impression that the wire would have been connected to the electrical box at the base of the wall. I am not sure how you he can justify the amount I was charged. Again, he was coming to do a free estimate. I understand most trades persons have an hourly rate when conducting work but this was never discussed as being added to his costs. After he left, I spoke with some friends who are Electricians as well as spoke with a few other companies and they said the charge should have been $50-$100 depending on the Electrician, one even said they would have done it for free to make a client and keep business. Tyler also wasn’t upfront and honest about his costs. He had me sign the agreement after showing me another contract with different pricing. I am not one to write these reviews, *** **** ***** ********* ** and hoping we can come to an agreement of a refund.

    Air conditioner upstairs master bedroom tripping breaker. ***** discussed with me some of the scope the investigation will be. Days getting hotter needed answers. ***** arrived the very next day & was able to diagnose & educate. Our air conditioner rating ****amps. On ****** amp meter climbing past 14amps. Wiring on my breaker rated only for 15 2 options: 1. find air conditioner of less amperage or 2. turn off everything & stay cool. He was quick, thorough, and made our choices for a solution clear. So its Tik Tok with my wife happily in the cool dark. We highly recommend ***** for his patience, skill, & compassionate professional service.
