What do you care? I doubt they serve the New York area.

Because when the Technician walks through the door to check out exactly what your requirements are he handed over a package with proof of every single thing I mentioned in my post. I’m telling you that these people are no joke. They have their act together. I can’t remember the last time I called a company after their service person left to thank them for sending us their very best but I did this time.

I’m going to be using them soon to center the fixture for the dining room chandelier. Whoever designed the spot it ended up being in must of had a couple drinks first! Lol

That doesn't happen often as I was in and around these businesses my whole stinking life. Therefore I have many trust issues with many of them but not Pikes.

They are GREAT!

Well, it is great when we help each other by reporting our personal experience, absolutely. What seems odd, because you mentioned they do charge a "lot per hour", why not say it's $50 an hour, or $75, or $35 ??? Don't they make their per hour charge public ? Why not ? Not arguing, just asking, seems strange. Sure hope they don't change it according to who is calling, Did you actually pay by the hour, not by the job, don't know what the sop is here in this area. We had a handyman like you mentioned, come and put in new switches in four boxes (old toggle type to the newer type), it didn't take even close to 20 minutes since they were all existing, nothing new to wire. The four were $15 (we purchased them and had them ready for him), we also had him replace two existing outside light fixtures on the lanai, again, no new wiring, those were $10 each and took about 8-10 min. for each one, last on the list was another new dimmer switch for the dinning area light fixture, $20 for that which took a bit longer, 15 min. or so. Was a bit short of an hour, so about $45 an hour roughly. Retired electrician from Ohio, had 37 years experience, seemed very knowledgeable and competent, but I guess yes, if a person has "trust issues" and a "stinking life", it's understandable, totally agree. I will ad we've had "licensed and bonded" "contractors" WITH NUMBERS on their card. When we called the state number to check out the numbers on the business card... guess what ? The numbers WERE legitimate numbers, but.... the "contractor" only paid ONCE, to get the number, then never renewed... so, there you go, more trust issues !

Even though the hourly rate is a lot you still beat the price of two different handymen that I got quotes from. It's because your guy worked, he wasn't flapping his lips. Uncommon phenomenal service nowadays. Thank You!

Hi there, by the way, the technician referenced Harry Potter is our very own Cody. He's been with us a few years and specializes in assembling and installation fans and lights in a professional manner. We are lucky to have him You are welcome to request him if you have another future service call. Thanks! - Casandra

Recently had Pike's install a NEMA 14-50 Outlet for my Tesla. Casandra (Pike's Electric) was great and supplied an estimate and scheduling entirely via email as I was traveling. Work finished on time and on price.
