First, the results that we expected:
We just needed to bring a few things up to code in our home – the good news is that we are up to code now (as far as I know) and everything still works.

I think their labor rate at the time I hired them was $85 for an hour (or less) of labor.

Unexpected:
I’ve never hired an electrician before but I know no good reason the following should be standard practice:

The final bill was more than the estimate as they found things that they missed when calculating the estimate; so I advise, if you’re comparing estimates, expect to actually pay more than they quote you.

They used no boot covers or tarps, but walked on our carpet without asking or giving notice, tracking everything that was on their boots on our carpet; so you might want to factor in extra money to have your carpet cleaned or money to buy tarps.

They were hard to get in touch with until they were ready to be paid, then they contacted us in multiple ways the same day, insisting that they receive prompt payment, NOT by mail.

While doing the job, he asked me if I wanted him to label the breakers (even-though it was part of the estimate) – there is never a need to ask if you should do your job, which made that seem like an attempt to avoid some work (would he have deducted the price had I said, “no”??).

He pressed to come do work while no one was home, but I declined.

Without asking or notifying us, he cut our bush 2 feet away from the house (which almost cut the bush in half) stating that the power board requires it to be cut away from the meter. I called the power board and they said that there is no specific distance, just as long as a person can access the meter.

If they can cash it in, he will take your replaced electrical equipment (lines, etc) without asking. I don’t expect it brings them a lot of money but he didn’t ask and he didn’t deduct that money from the bill.

Too expensive, too late and disrespectful.
For a small, 30 minutes service, they charged me $85 + material, very unprofessional and very disrespectful.
Stay away from this company.

Marty's Electric does a great job. Matt found a creative way to move our light fixtures without the need for sheetrock repair. We highly recommend them and appreciate that this is a Christian business.

Prompt, professional, and fair priced especially for the attention to detail. Perry has an outstanding attitude and is extremely easy to work with. I recommend him to everyone.

"I called Marty's with a problem clothes dryer. Matthew came out at the time I asked (one hour after my call), correctly diagnosed the problem, ordered the parts, and then came back today to repair the machine. He was responsible, respectful, and courteous. I am very pleased and will recommend Marty's for any electrical need moving forward."
