Very disappointed with Universal Electrical. I asked them to come out and quote repairing my backup generator. They came out and were not able to fix it and still sent me a bill for $375. I called to ask what the bill was for since they didn't fix anything and Christy said she would check with her service tech and call me back. She never called me back but instead sent the bill to a debt collector!

I had to contact the BBB to have them explain the charges to me. Also, when the electrician got to my house and... read more
