Mister Sparky First Coast

I mistakenly applied a negative review to this Mister Sparky. Mister Sparky of First Coast has been nothing but professional and helpful and I have had no problem with them at all. Please disregard the negative review

Would not quote over phone. For less than 10 minutes to replace a light switch they charged me $324. He said it needed diagnostic but didn't even turn off power. Trip charge was waived at $59 so the real charge was $383. AND, the switch plate was installed back on crooked. OMG Never again!!!

We received a quote for almost $3k. Their estimates was more than quadruple two other estimates from other national and local reputable companies. Plus, they claim to charge for the task rather than the amount of time. Which makes it difficult to understand if you are getting a fair market estimate. I'm convinced that there are other variables they use in their estimates, like home value, etc. We ended up getting the work done with a different company. It took a total of 3 hours to complete, which is being generous as the tech did have to stop for breaks and was rather talkative. There's no way I was willing to pay $1k per hour to Mr Sparky. I highly recommend shopping around for estimates as this company was significantly over priced from their peers.

BAIT AND SWITCH COMPANY! Beware!! I called this company letting them know my lights aren't working and I got told to send a guy out is 60 dollars. Little did I know they charge 60 dollars just to have the guy drive down the block. And not even check anything. On top of the 60 dollars you pay a Diagnostic Fee of 300 dollars. Just for him to check for 1 minute that the light fixture was the problem.
I asked how much would it be to install a new one,
He said 100 bucks for the light mixture and he would charge 2.5% up charge because he has to drive to get the light fixture. So a total of 250$ just to get the light fixture install it ON TOP of the diagnostic fee and the drive to the house. He quoted me 900$ to have everything done today.
900 dollars to fix a small light fixture after all the fees !! This company was honesty just a shocking experience when it comes to price. I value their experience but 800 dollars for a light fixture change, absolutely never again. I still paid the 300 dollars for him to drive and tell me something was wrong and not even fix my issue and on TOP of all that I had to call another company to install the light fixture for a WAY more reasonable price.

I should have read these reviews on Yelp before calling this company.

I just finished a project with Mister Sparky. They were on time for the estimate, day one and day two of the job. They were quick, and professional throughout the job. They left my place clean. I am very impressed with them and I already recommended them for more work.

I had Mr. Sparky come out to my house for the first time. The electrician, Brandon Hoeffer was a true pro. He was knowledgeable and professional. Price was fair and work done as agreed upon. Call the company and ask for this electrician!

Mister Sparky is the best electrician in the Jax area. They're professional, reliable, and know their stuff. They have done multiple repairs and new installs in my home, and have done an A+ job every time.

I called to get a ceiling fan motor replaced, and I was told that they don't offer that service. Fair enough, except their web page says they do:

""Common Ceiling Fan Repair Issues
Ceiling fans are a great way to keep yourself cool during hot summer days while saving money. If you use your ceiling fan during warm days, it is important to look out for potential issues to keep it running when it matters most. No matter what problem you're facing with your ceiling fan, there's nothing our team can't handle. Mister Sparky is always available to help you with your ceiling fan issues to keep your rooms comfortable all year round.

Bottom line, if you don't offer a service, change your web page instead of wasting people's time!

Mister Sparky fixed my outdoor lighting. Mike, one of the Managers is highly experienced and has a great attitude. Even did some extra work no charge.

Hire a company like this to guarantee their work. Might not be perfect first try, but they will make it more than right without trying to steal extra money.

A good team!

On December 21, 2020, I had them out to inspect my range that made a bang when I turned it on. They were responsive and came right out. The tech informed us that the range had died and we would need a replacement. Before leaving he disconnected and removed the range from the kitchen and told us to call them to install it

Fast forward to March 15, 2021, after 3 months with a hot plate, the new range has been delivered. We call Mr. Sparky to come and install it. They get out quick, but note that the dispatchers cannot give you quote information. After getting a hard time from the tech about not installing appliances (ie taking it out of the box and dropping it in the hole in the countertop) I get quoted ~$200 for the install, and $400 to hook it up. Keep in mind, it is essentially the same task (in reverse) that I paid $196 three months earlier. The entire process took 30 minutes tops, total cost was $520 after the tech discounted the price because it was ""easier than expected.""

I have tried for the past two days to speak with the company about the pricing, and get someone to explain to my how the same procedure could cost three times more, but I am getting no where. I have called twice, speaking with two different people, both of whom took my information with a promise to call back, and nothing for two days.

I used Mr. Spark multiple times in my two years at my current address, but they clearly have no interest in maintaining customer relationships and their pricing is both opaque and illogical.
