I recently used your service and was more than pleasantly surprised at the punctuality, professionalism, quality, and cost of the work by your electrician who goes by the name Harry Potter. What a great experience. You will be the only service we will call for in the future.

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!

How much is "a lot" per hour ? What should an uninformed resident consider as the average rate to pay in this area so they don't fall into the "sucker" group ?

We had a great experience with them also. They installed power for our hot tub. Included breakers, running power through the attic, down the exterior wall to a subpanel. Then underground to our pool deck. They even drilled through the concrete into our birdcage. Whereas another company just wanted to drill in through one of our birdcage supports. Their price wasn't the cheapest but they were half of the highest bid. Since they wired our house I felt better going with them. Will continue to do so if it's a project bigger than I want to handle.

I meant my post to be helpful and constructive. Give them a call and only you can decide if having a licensed, insured, bonded, and has workman's comp will be worth their hourly fee. It's not for me to publish that in this case. It blew away the estimates for the handymen. I'm happy with a contractor. 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!

Hello Pairadocs,
We offer FREE estimates up front for electrical upgrades/projects. An estimate, up front, should be at NO cost to you. As far as troubleshooting/service calls for problems or removal of existing and installations of fans, lights, etc. We charge a time and material rate. Some competitors may charge this rate PLUS a trip charge. We do not do that.
We take pride in charging by the hour, and giving you costs up front via phone and/or in writing on a formatted proposal.
I hope this helps!
-Casandra (Pike's Electric)

We've used Pikes twice. Last time just a week ago. Will use them again for sure. Very professional.

I have used Pike’s to install ceiling fans. They were fairly priced and did a great job.

We have lived here for almost 13 years and have always used Pike's for any electrical issues/needs that we had. They are dependable and reasonable in our opinion.
