Ilgen Electric was contracted by builder and did all original electric work in our new home. They were happy to service a few items after we moved in such as changing out a few light fixtures. Very friendly repairmen - very knowledgeable.

Where do I begin …. I would like to begin with giving them ZERO stars if only that was possible… Llgen Electric company was hired by my builder. A meeting was arranged with my builder, my audio-visual company, and the two electricians from this company that were going to install everything and do the work. At the meeting all plans were presented, discussed and even marked up and changed. In fact, their own electricians suggested changes and drew on the plans themselves. Since that meeting, not a single thing was changed. We received a quote and agreed on a price.nnHowever, between the time the quote was agreed upon and the work was set to commence, one of the electricians at the meeting unfortunately passed away. So the day Llgen was scheduled to begin working on the project the owner informed us that there would be an increase of $3800. As building goes, other trades and contractors were scheduled around the electrician and who’s work was also contingent on Llgen’s.nnWith a slight feeling of extortion and in an effort to amicably resolve the issue, I contacted Steve Llgen, the owner. Until this point he had not attended a meeting or to my knowledge had any conversation of substance with my builder concerning the project.nnTo put it lightly, he was rude, arrogant, unprofessional and condescending. Furthermore, despite two of his electricians going through my 24x36 size plans in person and making changes themselves, he refused to honor the quoted price claiming that he had no knowledge as to the extent of the work. I was even willing to meet him halfway in an effort to resolve it although no alternative resolution was ever discussed.nnNeedless to say, his demanding the day before work was set to begin that I pay an additional $3800 instead of honoring the quoted price made 6 weeks prior by his two electricians who clear had the authority to make it was not only disappointing but has set the project back 3-4 weeks.nnAnybody considering doing business with Llgen Electric should run the other way! If the owner acts in such a manner you certainly cannot expect too much from his employees and his staff. Simply a horrible experience by an unprofessional owner and company!

They did the original electrical work as hired by our builder. They are rude and arrogant. My guess is they know what they are doing but they are not service oriented. Very disappointing.

I read the previous review with interest because we are having difficulties with this company as well. They installed our outside generator (expensive house as well) and they wired the generator to the wrong rooms. We have been unable to get them to come out and inspect and fix the incorrect wiring for about three months now. I am very frustrated and hoping that we can get this fixed before we have the next hurricane
