Bolt Electric

I would like to send out a great big THANK YOU to Bolt for the great job their electrical technician Mike did for us at our home here in Estero June 2017. Despite a very tough situation, working in a a tiny space, in a hot house for over 5 hours, he finished the job professionally, and neatly too!. I cannot thank Bolt and Michael enough for their assistance. I feel confident now that my electrical issues are resolved and my home is safer.

Jeremy came to our house today and fixed a job another electrician had botched. He was professional, polite, and communicated well about what needed to be done. We were so impressed we hired him immediately for another job next week.

No problems with this company. Somewhat pricey but courteous technician who completed the job even after the need to obtain more supplies. Job completed well.

Jason and Wilfredo came to my home to move an electrical box. After getting into the walls further, it was determined that the entire home needed to be rewired. Although this was not the news we were hoping for, I could not have asked for better men to do the job. They treated my home as if it was their own, and took the time to explain to me everything that they were doing along the way. It was a big undertaking, but they worked through it to make sure my home was safe and wired properly, even arranging for a county inspector to come in. I would highly recommend this company for their trustworthy, hardworking, and friendly staff.

Mike came right on time and worked fast. He explained all of the changes to me so I knew what he was doing. He replaced a light switch with a timer and then checked a gfci switch I installed to make sure I didn't burn the house down.

NEVER AGAIN!!!! If you are looking for a company who charges an outrageous price for simply coming to your house, and fixes NOTHING, hire this company. I hired them to fix a motion sensor light in ny driveway. They have been out 4 times and it is still not repaired. They (the owner/manager) to me it was the sensor, so I purchased a new sensor for them to install... Guess what, the light STILL does not work correctly. Worse group of knowledgeable electricians I have ever known.

Overpriced and did not finish the job. Charged a ""diagnosis fee"" of $300 and did not fix anything. Quoted an additional charge of $300 to come back and actually fix the issue. Not feeling right about the quote I called in another electrician who fixed the problem in 15 minutes. The issue was something entirely different than what Bolt Electric said it was so not only do I feel completely ripped off for the diagnosis fee with no fix I am also feeling they are a very, very dishonest company.

sorry to read so many negative reviews,,I have used them twice and they were prompt, professional and explained everything to me..yes, a little expensive but worth the cost for the peace of mind they give me.

Beware of Bolt Electric. Purchased a $109 electrical service package from Angie's List. Technician came and before he began on a 30-45 minute job replacing a simple fluorescent light fixture quoted me that it would cost me an additional $44.00 for some bs charge. Finally I got so pissed, that I had to tell him to gtf out of my house. Talked to the owner of the company later and he told me that I shouldn't be cursing at his employee. I then asked a friend here from Canada on vacation that is retired as an electrician from Canadian Brodcasting Company, and he replaced by defective fixture in 30 minutes. These people have no shame or care about their reputation. Avoid them at all cost.

I have used bolt electric several times in the past, and their technicians did an ok job. After the last work they did for us, we were gone for several months and returned to find an issue that we thought was connected to it the work they had completed. The lights in our garage were not working, and I had tried several different bulbs that worked in other areas of the house, in those light sockets. So, we decided to have them come back out and take a look. This was after paying them thousands of dollars in the past for previous work.
When they came out, it was determined that all the bulbs I had tried were bad, even though they worked in a different light socket before I tried them in our garage. Maybe I had a bad batch of bulbs, or whatever happened, all the garage lights were working with different bulbs that we used when the technician came. Great! It was just bad bulbs. Now after being a little embarrassed that was all it was (who needs an electrician for changing a bulb, i'm a handy guy, i've replace every light and ceiling fan in our home). Thinking I would have to pay a little something for them driving all the way here, I waited to see the amount. Tech tell me it will be $59!!!!! For 2 minutes of time (it seriously took him longer to write up the bill then to change the bulbs). Now if I had not previously given them quite a bit of work in the past, I would not have questioned this as much. BUT, I was a several times repeat customer. You'd think they would value their repeat customers enough not to charge $59 to change a bulb. THEY DO NOT VALUE THIER CUSTOMERS!!! I called the office, and the person I spoke with was understanding and attempted to ""do something"" for me, but was told she could not, and yes, $59 would be the charge.
If you don't need any type of customer service and don't mind paying more than other electricians, use them. Their work was satisfactory. If you value customer service and fair pricing, DO NOT USE THEM.
