Wheeler Electric truck blocking fire hydrant. Disappointing.

I work for Jacob Grant Property Management and I use Wheeler Electric as a vendor, often. They communicate well with us, the tenants and get the job done in a timely manner. They're so easy to work with!

Had them out a few times for different projects and it was pretty good quality work. But it wasn't until the 2nd or 3rd time that I realized a pattern that the individual or team would claim they didn't have a specific part during the job and have to leave for an hour or more to get it, and then I'd get charged for the extra time. This would seem reasonable except in all the cases I had them come out in advance to survey the job (simple stuff like installing light fixtures) or send pictures and do pre-calls to ensure there wouldn't be any issues like that - and yet it still happened.

Only logical place to go is scam or a level of incompetence, and either way I've felt like I lost some trust with this company and am out an extra few hundred dollars :(

Tyson was very professional and fast. He took out heavy ugly light fixtures and replaced them. He also put in puck lights for energy efficiency. I will be using them again!

Gave estimate with fair price. The Tech, Carlos, was very professional and friendly. Did exactly what needed to be done and provided great service. HIGHLY recommend Wheeler Electric and ask for Carlos. He's the bomb! Thanks for your excellent service. Will tell our family/friends to contact you with their needs.

We are in the process of finishing our basement. The Sheetrock crew was coming on Tuesday, November 3rd. We needed a canister light installed in the closet with its own light switch. We also needed a separate light switch installed for the theater room. I had another electrician scheduled, but he never did show up. I called Wheeler, and they sent out Carlos the next day at 8 am. Very happy with the service, and the price. They do not charge a driving fee. We live in Rigby. Thanks so much!

I had Wheeler come out to add 220v 30A and 50A outlets to my garage, for equipment. The tech arrived at 1:24PM and left at 4:04PM 2 Hours and 40 Min from start to finish. The techs plan was to install flush mount outlets in the wall, but due to plywood behind the sheetrock was forced to do surface mounts instead. Tech had already disposed of the original drywall cutouts, so I could not repair the drywall with the original cutouts.

I contacted wheeler who offered me a credit. They resent out Fred who seems like a really good tech, he replaced the incorrect flush mount covers with proper surface mount covers. ***This is where is went bad.*** About 7 -10 days later I got the bill. The tech charged me for 4.5 hours of work at $80- per hour plus materials. When I called the main office to discuss the clearly exaggerated billing hours, I wanted to get the billing hours corrected, so I offered to send them video of the work that was done as it was being done, as it was done in view of my surveillance cameras and clearly showed the tech was only there for 2 hours and 40 minutes.

They declined to view the footage and said they would only correct it to 3.5 hours. After all was said and done my electrical inspection failed. What I had asked for is not allowed by code. Wheeler did not advise me of this when I requested the work. I then had to pull most of their work out, I was able to reuse the main feed line and one of the outlet boxes, and both electrical outlets, I had to buy a new sub panel, two more breakers and wire, conduits, box and clamps to bring the job to code.

I did not trust them to treat, or bill me properly. So the follow up work to bring their original work to code was not done by Wheeler. They may have some good techs, but I definitely got burned, and will not request any additional work from them in the future. I would have given them only one star since the job was not to code, but I gave them an extra star for offering to make good on the drywall damage and partially fixing the billing errors.

He was so friendly and informative when i called in looking for an electrician for some AC problems. He got me scheduled within 2 days and the only reason I don't give 5 stars is because my landlord went another way about fixing the AC and I didn't need wheeler electric to come out. Great friendly service from what I could tell and sometimes businesses forget that's a big part of satisfaction!

These guys are high-class pedigree when it comes to electricians. They honor and follow every rule and code to a T and make sure the jobs are done right. I got a little bit more of an inside look at the company as a videographer when I filmed some work for them. I was very very impressed not with just their professionalism but with their knowledge and kindness.
