    My first contact with the company was with Steve Reid who gave me my initial quote. I contacted 5 companies to do a panel replacement and Kolbs prices were phenomenal compared to others. Steve was very pleasant to communicate with. The technician who came was punctual and worked efficiently, finishing quicker than expected. I am very happy with my new panel.

    Kolb Electric provided PHENOMENAL service in the clutch for me. They exceeded my expectations by arriving 3 hours earlier than I had originally anticipated. Their technicians are very courteous and professional. Going forward, Kolb Electric will be my one stop shop for anything electric.

    This saga began a year ago. The company did not tell me the full truth: I was originally just going to do 1/2 of the job - the outside wire. Fore the record, you cannot do just an upgrade of the wire at one time, and then the box, which is what Anthony, their guy, told me. Once they had done the work and the wire was noticeably the same size, I asked around and - lo and behold - I would have had to pay for a wire again when I finally did the heavy-up (basically, paying for the same thing twice) I contacted them and worked something out: they would do the full heavy up, eat the price of the smaller wire, but get the full price for the full heavy-up. A fair compromise, and I appreciated it. EXCEPT... It has been a never ending saga to get them out here. This included scheduling appointments that they missed without informing me (for which I sacrificed personal days from work), bringing out newbie electricians whose work did not pass inspection, not passing on that information to me when they found out that the inspections did not pass... and now I am past the one year mark on an over-priced heavy-up (I eventually started shopping around and got estimates when I could not get through to the office, and discovered that they charge more than other highly rated electricians on Angies List). I am sitting at home today after taking a day off - again - so I coudl be here for the final inspection. They emailed me today at 11:45 to let me know that they had scheduled the inspection for Friday. For the record, I called J&P Plumbing on Monday to get an inspection for this day, too, since I was going to be home for the Kolb one. The DPIE inspector was here at 11 and left already: inspection for their work passed. Bottom Line: Unless you are a retiree with money to burn and the time to hound their office day ad night to make sure that they follow through on what they say they will do, don't use Kolb.
