Sloppy and overpriced work

1 outside light replaced - new plate did not completely cover the hole/space left by the old light - WE had to fill in the gaps - leaside was happy to leave basically exposed gaps.
2 re-wiring - simple runs but charged double estimate
3 did Not return calls about other issues

Flickering kitchen lights

Called in Leaside Electric to help with flickering lights in our kitchen. Michael (Master Electrician) systematically checked every switch on the circuit breaker, one by one, until the source of the problem was found and repaired. He even upgraded some items without charge.

He was very thoughtful about not making a mess and keeping his hands clean (very expensive wallpaper in the guest bathroom) and left without leaving a trace he was here.

I would not hesitate in calling in Leaside Electric for any problems that arise in the future.

Electrical Wiring

Michael and his crew were very courteous, clean, and performed exactly what we asked with ease. It was very clear that they have a lot of experience and I'm happy to write a review on them.

Re-wire older home - remove knob and tube

Disappointing experience.

Leaside Electric dealt with our general contractor. Took weeks longer than said up front. Bill was almost twice quote. Did minor damage (carpets, walls, furniture) and was aggressive when we brought it up. After being harassed to pay, before work was done, we paid - now refusing to finish.

Have been rude.Really abusive. We were actually afraid. Felt harassed.

Have reneged on promise to finish - now that paid, deny that responsible to finish after telling us they would never do that when they wanted to get paid.

Shocking. Disappointing. They live in the same neighbourhood. Were all about being neighbours when they wanted a BIG check. Once they had the check, took the opportunity to tell us to get lost.

We thought they had such a good reputation.

Approximate cost of services:
$25,000.00
What could this company do to improve their services?
They could provide some. They could be polite. They could be responsible. They could be professional.
Any advice to offer fellow homeowners facing a similar project?
Try to find somebody else. There must be some ethical electricians in Leaside.

Remove knob and tube from older home, re-wire

Very disappointing.

Did not finish the job, took a long, long time (far longer than they estimated), way over quote (twice as much as quote), very rude when we called (repeatedly) to try to arrange for them to finish the job...almost seemed drunk when we called one afternoon to try to get the job finished.

Still trying to get the certificate.

I would not recommend.

Approximate cost of services:
$30,000.00
What could this company do to improve their services?
Accurate quote. Accurate estimate of timing. Finish the job. Be responsive to requests - we only asked for one thing. Follow-up to ensure client satisfied.
