NOTE: I think its misleading when Lynetta Anderson and Eric Anderson (owners) each put in their own stellar Google Review for their company. RUN FROM THIS COMPANY. -Eric (the owner) seemed like a go-getter and a problem solver, but only showed up only once for less than 10 minutes on the first day of the job to brief his crew for a $7,300 quote. The rest of the time it was just his crew who did not competently complete the job. He did show up months later after many calls to try to fix some obvious issues and collected $5,800 on the $7,300 quote (we fairly paid him for all work completed in full and for half the quoted price for the work left unfinished). This is before we realized the work was improperly done. *Examples of work done incorrectly: -(3) Romex wires were coming out of the wall in ONE hole (see pic) for one short run of undercabinet LED tape lights. Now I have learned LED tape lights can be run on even a small voltage driver, and that all three Romex wires could not possibly fit into even a large metal undercabinet light so their presence becomes a hazard. -The position of the undercabinet rough wires were incorrect and we (the homeowners) had to move them lower so that the cabinet makers could install the cabinets; the crew had been given Autocad designs of the kitchen plan. -All of undercabinet and within cabinet kitchen lights as well as the canned lights were run to ONE switch. They were supposed to be on separate switches with all but the canned lights being dimmable. -Canned lights were installed in a bedroom with clear access to attic space directly above. The crew managed to put TWO misplaced can holes too close to the same 2x4 ceiling joist causing the canned lights to fit improperly (paid over $700 to have someone patch these and other holes made) *Examples of lack of respect given to cleanup and general conditions left behind/lack of professionalism: -New canned lights (over 20 installed) had fingerprints and smudges all around the holes. Degreaser/cleanser would not remove the smudges. -Clips which belong on the canned lights and are integral to their placement (holds them in the ceiling) were left on the floor as well as cut wire, paperwork, and other work-related debris. -Upon request, Eric sent a crew member out when the cabinets were being installed to drill the access holes for the within cabinet lights. He proceeded to commandeer the cabinet maker’s ladder without even asking. Then, he was about to drill holes in the back upper corner of the cabinet until the cabinet maker politely asked if that was his intention, it might show when standing below. The cabinet maker only noted this because he could not continue his work as his ladder was taken and he was waiting. After consideration and asking me where the drilled hole should go (I told him I had not researched it and I thought Eric had a plan for the lights based upon what I requested; I said I thought there would be a typical placement for this). He drilled them in the front corner finally, but at that point my husband and I decided that we needed to settle accounts with Anytime Electric and get someone else to finish. -For over five months, I have been calling this company, leaving messages about how things were discovered improperly done. I spoke to Eric once directly, but all other times involved his receptionist who assured me that she is giving him the messages. We have only asked him to pay us back $902, this is the amount we had paid him for completing part of the labor--only running the wire--for the LED strip lights (the whole amount for the LEDs was $1,804). We did not include any amounts in correcting for the additional two Romex wires, any amount for the repainting around the cans, no amount for sheetrock work, and no amount for money spent on trouble-shooting what had been done/correction of bad work, etc. Eric said he would have to look at the quote and get back with me. He never has, and he has not refunded a cent for any work improperly done.

I used Any Time Electrical Service to repair some miswired outlets in a property that I own. I spoke with Eric (owner?) after I was charged $675 for two hours of work to discuss the charge. He confirmed that he did not use any supplies and simply rewired outlets that had been wired backwards. When I suggested that the charge was much higher than other electricians in the area, he stated he did not have time to discuss the charge and he would lein the property within 24hours if I did not pay the full amount. I will be filing a report with the BBB of Baton Rouge and the appropriate legal officials.

Got an estimate and made deposit on 11/17 Service scheduled with resulting no shows on: 11/21, 1/10, 1/31, 2/7, 2/8 Called on 2/14 (one of many calls) to cancel the contract and request refund of the deposit. Assured it was forthcoming. 4/5 finally picked up my refund at their office (one even got lost in the mail) Call Anytime Electric if you want to give out an interest free loan for four and a half months. ------ Passed on a second quote that they offered. Spoke with another electrician on 3/11 that explained why I didnt need the service upgrade that Eric was more than happy to sell me.

My Dad had some work done at a rental property Replace 120volt outlet, Replace 125 amp Electrical panel with breakers and rewire 2 plus in bedroom... He has been using Anytime Electrical services since 2011 and will continue to use this awesome company . He paid a deposit of half the total service then the remainder after work was completed. The electrician was very informative and always explained in detail the services required. My Dad says that he will use them again and again he also encourages anyone looking for a fair and knowledgeable electrical service to use them!

Anytime Electrical Service was assigned to my property from my home warranty company. The electrician assigned showed up in a very timely manner and exemplified customer service!!! He examined, explained and addressed my concerns. Definitely recommend this company for your home or office electrical service needs!!!

The office staff was very helpful in getting me schedule as soon as possible. The electricians were efficient and thorough and worked very diligently to finish my home in a timely manner. Additionally, I have not had to call them back to repair anything.

Had outside lighting added to our office. Eric and his team came and took care of the job quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend Anytime Electric for any projects, large or small.

This is a rip off company that should be reported to the BBB ASAP. Will not deal with this company and to others beware.
