Adair Electric
Brian Adair Dishonest, Incapable, Disorganized, Irresponsible, Undependable

Beware of Adair Electric. We were finishing our basement and we received a few quotes on the electrical work we wanted done on our basement. Brain came out to give us a quote. He seemed nice and we felt like he had good ideas. When he gave us the quote it was a few hundred dollars less than others. He said he was giving us a discount because jobs were getting hard to come by. We decided to give him a chance.

At first things were fine, but as the job continued we became very disappointed. They would leave for lunch and never return. They put the lights in odd places requiring them to move them twice. This was fine... It goes along with construction.

The problems started when they would leave and not come back for days. When they would tell us they were coming they wouldn't show up. Then they would come the next day with out telling us and if I didn't answer they would leave. They knew I had to take kids to school in the morning, but they wouldn't wait and then they would blame me. We ended up having to paint the basement in the dark because they left without hooking up the electricity and we couldn't get Brian to call us back.

Later when they were doing the phone lines they left without telling us and when I went to answer the phone later there was nothing but static. When we called we did not get a response for over a week.

When Brian finally sent out a guy to hook up the electricity and fix our phones he messed up our alarm because he was incompetent. He spent about 45 minutes here drilling golf ball sized holes in our finished and painted ceiling to try to find the wires behind the drywall and then informed us that he couldn't fix the phones because he was color blind.

After two more days Brian came back and when we told him that we were fed up with him, he got mad at us and told us that his guy was a liar and was not color blind. As if it were our problem.

Finally they got our phones fixed and we signed off on the job just to get them out of our house. As we were finishing the rest of the basement we found that when they were trying to fix our phones they pulled the alarm box out and when putting it back in he drilled it into the side of the drywall rather than into the stud. This cracked the entire piece of drywall all the way through.

We've also found that the accent lights that were supposed to highlight the walls for artwork, but actually highlight the windows and doorway, aren't working and the light switches are hot to the touch.

Due to some business travel and needing to get quotes on the drywall damage, we were unable to contact Brian until this week. My husband left him a message saying that we were not making the final payment until we could get quotes from competent contractors to fix the problems. Brian left us a message saying that we signed off on the job and he is not responsible for things that came up after that including the drywall.

Out of fairness he is willing to fix the accent lights that aren't working, but he doesn't care that his guys placed them in areas that didn't highlight anything. I also don't know if I want him fixing the lights when I really don't feel confident is his skills. I really don't want my house to burn down.

In all, there are so many electricians out there that would do a much better job. Even if you have to pay a little bit more it is worth it! Stay away from Adair Electric!
