Wade and Son Electric, Inc. reviews
7Jeff did an amazing job installing recessed lights and ceiling fans in our house. It took 3 days to finish the job and we're super happy with his quality of work. The framing in our house is weird but Jeff found a way to make it work with the switches he installed. Danielle was super helpful in picking the right lights for us and confirming that the fans we picked will work. Thank you both!
I have used Jeff Wade for several years, he is the only electrican I trust, I know if I am in need of an electrial repair he will do it, and when he is finished I don't worry, I know the job is done to code! I never have trouble booking an appointment Danielle will get me in line as soon as possible, this is a great company, I look around this house and I am thankful I came in touch with such reliable people. I used Don Wade, Jeff's dad many years ago, and since Don retired Jeff has been the only guy I will call when I have electrical needs. He's the best in the west!
I have used Jeff Wade for several projects at my home. He has installed two outdoor flood lights & a ceiling fan. He is on time & professional & is worked is exceptional. He made recommendations for the outdoor lights, like location & additional switch. I would highly recommend Jeff.
Jeff Wade and his father Don Wade have been my electricians for nearly 30 years, both at my home and where I work. They have done everything from small jobs like fixing faulty outlets to huge jobs including installing a completely new breaker box system, installing 220 in the garage, and trouble shooting all sorts of electrical glitches in the old wiring old the Victorian house where I work. Jeff is very thorough. Before commencing work, he always explains what is going on with the electrical problems and proposes the most expedient solution. I HIGHLY recommend Wade and Son Electric. They are absolutely top-notch electricians and do superior quality work.
Consistently excellent service across 4-5 jobs over the past 2 years, including upgrading electrical panel and wiring for A/C, installing electric car charger in garage, and several smaller jobs. I always get a reply from Jeff within 24 hours of contacting him and he is always on time. Pricing clearly communicated up front and always reasonable.
I very rarely write negative reviews, but they beyond-warranted this one because:
- way over-priced ($3,675 to switch outlets and confirm they were grounded)
- $195 invoice to fix mistakes and not send a quote
- horrible workmanship
- creepy vibes
- you’re legitimately better off working with your neighbors who look like they have a decent set of tools in their garage
Jeff first over-quoted my recently widowed mother for replacing outlets in her home and confirming they were grounded. She agreed to it though, so it is what it is.
His workmanship was awful. Over half of the outlets were crooked. Who knows if he properly attached anything. My 19 year old college roommate with no construction/ electrical experience legitimately did a better job.
After calling him back out to fix some of the mistakes, he agreed to come out and correct his work for free. Despite the shoddy workmanship, I wanted a quote for a garage spotlight that had a broken sensor.
He showed up late after rescheduling the appointment twice. When he got here, he creepily ogled me in my knee-length flowy dress (this was a few months ago when it was in the 90s). Super creepy vibe. Legitimately ask your daughters to wear long pants/ crew necks.
He fixed about half of his mistakes and said he had to look up things for the quote. He never got back to either of us with a quote. Considering our experiences with him so far, we figured we’d be better off hiring someone else.
Like six weeks later, he charged my mom an invoice for $195. TO FIX HIS MISTAKES AND PROVIDE AND NOT PROVIDE A QUOTE.
For the workmanship and price, I would legitimately be better off looking up videos on YouTube and trying to do it myself. I will never use this company again and recommend you work with legitimately anyone else. Even neighbors that you don’t really know. That’s what we did, and so far, it’s better.
I had Wade and Son do 2 jobs for me in the last year. Running electrical service to an out building and then replacing our homes main service panel with a solar ready panel. The work on both jobs was competitively priced, done in a timely manner, and no issues or problems with the work since completion. As an aside, the solar installer commented on how well the main panel was installed and wired. I have one more electrical project to be completed, and Wade and Son will be doing it. I am very satisfied with their work.
