I recently had electrical work done, replacing 2 can lights w/ pendants and a dimmer, a new outside gci for a water fountain and replaced the duplex above the microwave wave with a quad (4 outlet). Got quotes from Pikes and Lenhart. They were close in price but not in scope of work. Wasn't sure who to call for the third quote. I was in the garage and looked at the breaker panel and noticed the sticker of the contractor who wired my CYV. Called R&A for a quote. Phil came out and we talked through the 3 projects. He explained what work he would do and the parts to be used. On the outside outlet he said the best way and the only way he would do it was to run the 20 amp circuit directly from the panel. The other two wanted to tap into the existing outlet! The two indoor projects were similar to Pikes and Lenhart, the big difference was the total price. R&a's was 30% less than the other two and I got the quote in writing. 3 days later 2 young men and came and did the work. 2-1/2 hours later the place was clean and we were more than pleased! They left me a 5' piece of Romeo so I could add another outlet in the kitchen oboe the cabinet for the above cabinet led lighting. SO, get several quotes and be sure to get one from the contractor did the original work on your home.
