Work Description: Install new breaker box

Comments: We hired Shawn’s Electric to replace our breaker box three years ago. We recently called BGE about a problem with our meter and while BGE was looking at the meter, they discovered that the breaker box wasn’t installed safely or to code. Shawn’s Electric had installed a 200-amp breaker box, but left the 100-amp service line.

As a result, BGE gave us a violation notice and told us we have 60 days to get it fixed or they will shut off our electricity.

We also recently had a home inspection, and the inspector also said that the way the breaker box is installed is a fire hazard.

After we got the notice from BGE, we contacted Shawn’s Electric twice (by phone and email) asking for their help correcting the issue, but we haven’t heard back.

I was impressed by the many positive reviews for Shawn’s Electric, so I’m very disappointed that they would install something that’s (a) unsafe and (b) is forcing us to pay for an expensive repair to avoid getting our electricity shut off.

Work Description: never use Shawn’

Comments: Very disappointed.... To avoid the long details I will just get straight to the point. Shawn’s electric charged me $244 to change a toggle light switch to a light push button light switch. The tech didn’t have to drill or cut any holes, didn’t have to run any wires nor did he have to replace any of the existing wires.... He just killed the power to the switch via the panel, removed the cover plate, disconnected the wire from the old toggle switch, connected those same wires to the new switch and then restored power back to the switch..... this task took less than 10 mins... $244!! When I asked the owner and the tech why they charged me for a new install, he said that they charge by the task... The crazy thing is that in an earlier quote the task of replacing a 3-way switch was only $t55... I seeked further clarification by having them explain replacing a 3 way switch... and it was exactly the same as the tasked performed by the tech but they continued to call it a new install. I would easily agree if he had to place a switch where none existed.. or even if he had to install a switch where an old switch was but the wires weren’t working and he had to run a new line... but that’s not the case! The existing wires and switch worked fine, he simply changed them out for me and charged me $254!! By the way, that switch cost approx $60.. As a Retired Veteran I went from meeting a young man name Michael Manfredi who went out of his way to help a Vet get this house to finding Shawn’s Electric who is ripping people off by charging $244 to replace a light switch.
I still have a few more electrical projects that I would like to get done but I assure you that I will never use Shawn’s Electric again nor recommend them to anyone I know!!!!
