Dryer outlet not working

Dryer stopped producing heat and after replacing every part in the dryer, we found it wasn't the dryer that was the issue, it was the outlet. I found 4 Star on google and called them. They were extremely great to deal with. They found there was an issue with improper wiring and fixed the issue. Finally after over a month of no dryer, I have a working dryer. I couldn't be more happy. Plus the guys that fixed it were great to work with. Will definitely use them in the future and highly recommend them to anyone needing service of any sort :)

Kitchen Reno

Great Service and fair pricing. You an always find a guy to do something for less but these guys showed up looking good and were fair. I felt comfortable with leaving them in my house when I was gone. Thank you for your great work and I am willing to pay for a good job rather then a fly by night company.

Electric services

4 star electric was the only company among multiple electricians who listed 24 hr emergency service who called back after leaving a message with their operator. The service was fantastic and we would recommend them to others.

Kitchen renovation

Recently we completed a kitchen renovation using multiple trades of which we have posted excellent reviews on home stars. After completely ripping out all of our existing kitchen realized we need to make a few minor adjustments to our electrical wiring. As it was time sensitive we called 4 star and amazingly they were available asap.( This is why I gave them the 1 star. )We required a new dishwasher circuit and the electrician used the existing garburator circuit as a junction box leaving approximately 5 ft of wire. We than required a separate circuit for an over the range microwave which the electrician than used the existing dishwasher circuit, fishing it to centre of wall( all 77 inches). He also removed the old microwave circuit from the panel which was no longer required. So 4 hours of work...(including approximately 1/2 hour calculating the invoice , a lot of upselling )and $930 later of which they claimed $268 (approx $160 above the actual cost)went to the city inspector . Brad the electricians only objective was to up sell rather than complete the work requested. Overall we feel we were hosed on this service especially after comparing the actual work completed with other reputable electricians and ,would highly recommend you Not Use This Company.

Hi Susan and Dave,

I was hoping we could talk, I'm unable to find your information with only a first name. I would really appreciate if you gave us a call so we can resolve this.

At 4-Star electric we have 2 policies in place to avoid these concerns:
1. Up-front Pricing. All pricing is done before any work is started.
2. 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. If you are not 100% satisfied with our service, you don't have to pay.

The part that confuses me the most is that you, "compar[ed] the actual work completed with other reputable electricians." I'm assuming, you may have called them to get a quote over the phone. We used to provide quotes over the phone a long time ago, but we found through experience that these quotes are never accurate. Some times they were high and other times they were low. All in all, they were just Guesses. That is why we only provide pricing on site and before any work is even started, so you know the exact investment.

I look forward to your call or email, so we can resolve your concern.

Thanks,
Denver Vannus

Hello. I wanted to share a testimonial regarding services received.

4 Star Electric provides above and beyond professional service. We needed new electrical outlets in our small laundry room to accommodate stacking of our new washer and dryer. Electrician Steve D. was professional and knowledgeable in meeting our needs. He completed the work in a very clean manner and helped stack the dryer on top of the washing machine. I would absolutely use 4 Star Electric for all of our electrical needs and highly recommend them. Miles

Good day,

Sandy and I agree that all three of the fellows who did electrical work at our house recently have been extremely polite, patient and professional. Scott and Mike were very thorough in placing the wires and receptacles. Scott and Steve did not take very long at all to finish the fixtures (once we got them here). We wanted to express our appreciation for a very pleasant and efficient restoration; our impression of all three of those fellows, and your company, is very positive.

Thank you!

We had a short in our home. I had them come over to check it out and repair it. They discovered that we needed that circuit rewired and they also installed safety breakers. Excellent job, cleaned up when finished.
