I don't get the travel time charge thing. We had Pikes come out and give us an estimate for installing electrical outlets on the outer wall of our lanai. They quoted a price similar to our other quotes, we accepted; they came back and did an excellent, fast job. If you get quotes, where does the travel time come in? The other companies may be factoring in travel time as well in their quotes.

My husband called warranty to find out who did the electrical in our house because he was impressed that all the outlets are installed straight and true. (Not the case in some other houses we built.) It was Pikes.
