Recommended Customer Reviews
I'm very happy with the professional work done by VP. It was a big job including trenching, piping between two houses, and coordinating with HELCO. On time and they pushed the job knowing we had some time limitations. Co-owner John was particularly responsive, answering his cell on a first ring. If you've got a bigger contracting job, call these guys.
Highly recommended. We had some ceiling fans to change out on 20 food vaulted ceilings. From beginning to end, great communication, punctual, friendly and professional. Dealt with Chad, Darrin over phone and email and AJ and Hayden came out to get the job done. Ran into some issues with new fan but they went the extra mile and got the job done. Mahalo again.
It was a little difficult getting our appointment scheduled. However, when Allen and the other electrician showed up they did a fantastic job. They were able to use prior wiring which saved us some money. I would use VP again. Just don't expect to have the job done right away.
VP Electric responded promptly to our request for some general electrical work at our home. The company does solid work compared to many of the contractors on Big Island, however, make certain that you get a written quote for the work to be done from them. In our case, the price of the final bill was almost double of what was verbally quoted over the phone after the technician had initially scoped out the job. A customer deserves to know when an oversight on VP's estimate is going to cost them more and be part of the decision process moving forward. Sticking your customers with a larger than expected bill is not how you encourage a customer to pick up the phone for the next job. If you need a competent electrician, give them a call, but buyer beware of unsound quoting and billing practices.
These guys were fantastic. Bad communication at first (probably my fault however). However, they followed up and said they would come tomorrow at 7am. At 7:00 on the nose, they were there and ready to work. He replaced some old water heater timers, replaced a few bad GFIs and tracked down a short that no one else could find. Super nice guy named James who was polite, well spoken, neat and professional. He was missing one part (outside outlet cover) but came back that afternoon to finish even when we were away (gave him permission of course). They are not cheap but fair. I have had bad luck with guys who are cheap but you wind up paying to fix what they didn't do properly. These guys did it right the first time. And, as the saying goes, ""the cheapest wind up paying the most."" VP did a super job and come highly recommend. They have a new customer. 5-stars!
We were very pleased with the excellent responsiveness and service delivered by Chad of VP Electric. He patiently answered all our questions and then came on short notice during the holidays to install the electrical junction box and wiring for our new Stiebel Eltron Tempra 24 whole house on demand hot water heater. The work was professionally done, looks nice, and we now have hot water. We will certainly call VP Electric again should another need arise.
GREAT QUICK service! I had smoke detectors go off in the middle of the night, and wouldn't stop, blaring non-stop in a condo complex no less. Did everything we could ourselves - but needed to replace the units, which of course we couldn't reach. First thing at 8:00am I called Chad in the service department and I had James at my door within a couple of hours! Everything replaced. Everything fixed. Friendly, fast, fair service. Great Aloha . . . Thanks!
From the moment I called them I knew VP electric was a quality company. Chad came out first to evaluate the work I needed done to ensure I knew up front the rough cost and time frame required. He then made sure that the work got scheduled during the time I was on the island in my condo.
Brian and James were the ones who did the work and they were both professional and efficient. They installed a new fan and outlets for me. They communicated with me on what I wanted and worked very hard to ensure that the end result was what I desired. I highly recommend VP electric!! You may have to wait a little bit for them to be able to schedule your work but that is the price you pay for quality work.
I was referred to Chad at VP Electric LLC by our property manager. I had a small job that needed some attention at our condo at White Sands Village. Chad was great on the phone, I was able to reach him right away. He told me he'd do his best to be out the next if possible with their busy schedule. I was contacted by electrician Brian. He was awesome. Arrived on time with an aloha smile and ready to help. He completed the job quickly, gave me some great info and was on his way. Great guys I'll always call from my electrical needs and would refer to friends without hesitation. Mahalo Nui Chad and Brian.
These guys are the best. Very professional and knowledgeable. They showed up on time, did a great job and left my house cleaner than when they arrived. I highly recommend this company for any electrical work.
