Positive UPDATE at the Bottom July 2016, we hired Dave of Kouder Electric to put 15 LED can lights in and install our foyer light with a dimmer switch (also led). They were also suppose to make the outlets that were connected to the lights to be permanently on/hot so that we can operate other things like vacuums without having to turn the lights on in order to have the outlets work. Result: We cant use our foyer light without looking like were hosting a rave party because they strobe 9 times out of 10. Lucky were a healthy family or that thing could be seizure causing. Our outlets are NOT permanently on/hot so when we vacuum in the middle of the day, we still need to turn on our lights. We have TRIED SOOOOO many times to get him to come out to resolve the issues and after a year, its STILL not fixed. Most of the time he doesnt answer his phone or texts, when he does and says that hell show....he doesnt. The most recent being that he said hell get some guys to fix it on June 13th at 9am. No one showed or called. I called and after multiple attempts he answers at 9:43am and said that Im still on the schedule but his guys have to go to Chicago to pick up ladders and itll take about 2 hours before getting to me. At first I was ok with it because I forgot I had meeting out of the home from 12:30 - 2:30pm. I called the office line and asked if I could be rescheduled to 3pm. They couldnt do it but the secretary promised that the guys will be out today (Wednesday June 14 from 8-9am). AGAIN no show and no call. What a shock right? I called Dave on his private line and business line a number of times: 8:48am (he responds by text, "Sorry, Im on a call right now."), 9:14am (he responds by texted, "Cant talk, Call you in 15 minutes"), 9:43am (I left a message), and 10:03am. Its 12pm now and still nothing. I also texted "The guy still hasnt shown. Are they still coming today?" at 8:50am *crickets* Did I mention he has my tape measure? Not that I cant afford to replace it but its the principle of things especially all thats NOT happening at that moment. LESSON: If you have all the time in the world to chase around a guy whos non-responsive, undependable, and does ok work that may need fixing but it may never get fixed, Kouder Electric is your go to then. UPDATE: Shortly after this review, Dave contacted me and had me contact his new personal assistant/electrician, Oliver, who set me up a same day appointment. He came when he said he would, fixed all my issues (yes my issues were due to it being wired wrong), and even gave me a replacement tape measure. Turns out that the previous guy made a lot of mistakes so I was only one in a long line with similar outstanding issues. Hope all the people will now have their issues fixed soon since Oliver is legit. I no longer have to turn the lights on in the middle of the day to vacuum and no more rave party in the foyer. If I ever need an electrician again, Oliver said I could call him directly since hell be overseeing scheduling, estimates and repairs.

I lost power early Sunday morning I called them and they were at my house in a half an hour. They were real nice and got the work done as soon as they could to get me back up and running with power
