RaySon Electric & General Contracting

Raymond and his assistant completed some electrical work for us (added two new electrical boxes in our dining room ceiling and relocated the light switch, and added a new pot light and switch).

It was a pleasure working with Raymond. He was able to come by our home a few days after our first phone call to review the job and provide us with a rough estimate. He was excellent with communicating - answering all my questions in a timely and professional manner.

As someone in the design field, I really appreciated him listening to my ideas and accommodating all my requests even if they may have been a bit different than what he was accustomed to doing.

He was one time the day of work and efficient in completing the job. He was unavailable to be at our home for the day of the ESA inspection but assured us he was available by phone if there were any questions. We didn't need to call him as the inspection went smoothly and a few days later Raymond dropped off our certificate.

We would definitely hire him again for future work around our home.

Ray was the only one that replied to my "small" job of putting a door on the side of my deck for access to the gas shut off valve. He came promptly and did the work I requested quickly and efficiently.

Very knowledgeable and get the job done right with permit included.

A bit Torn on writing this, I try to give the benefit of the doubt, and not always complain.

Ray was great, although very professional, very polite, on time, knowledgeable, I am not at all pleased with the work done, it seemed rushed, incomplete, missing pieces, poorly and sloppily done.

We had discussed prior that a cleaning was needed, there was green algae on water pooling points on the deck. This was not cleaned, I was home at the start and Ray and his assistant just started staining the deck. This was to be cleaned prior to staining, as written in the email quote.

I confirmed with Ray as to what type of stain to get and how much, I was told a Semi Transparent deck stain. Stated that this would cover up most of the little stains etc.

This did not, and upon closer inspection the stain was not applied evenly at all, where you can see roller marks, and double layers where the roller overlapped.

The Fence, looks awful. its blotchy and has dark spots. This container was $160 plus tax,

I spoke with Ray, letting him know I was not impressed and that much had been missed. The front edge of the deck was not done,the roller marks were visible etc. He came back several days later, and redid some (only the deck, not the fence etc) , with a different stain, and Opaque stain(Same color, different look) Adding to this, I saw bird droppings on the deck, right above the steps, the day he was to return to finish it. I did not have a chance to clean them up. When he was there, I watched him try to paint over them. Now, the bird droppings are bleeding through the stain, and are not removable. I have tried a coat over top, and they wont go away.

So due to the different Semi Transparent, and now the Opaque Stain, We have two completely different looks in the back yard.

The fence has a blotchy semi transparent stain,

The deck and external fence has an awful "poo" paint look to it.

Going through and completing work in the back yard it seems more and more was missed, or semi done. (Spots of semi transparent paint, mixed with Opaque stain over top)

This is extremely frustrating when going to sale.

I was quoted at $875, including cleaner, material, and Labor. I will end up spending approximately another $300 fixing this.

Extremely happy with my choice to hire RaySon Electric & General Contracting. I had a rotted 2 level deck. Raymond went over my plans in detail, came up with options and solutions. He started on time everyday and worked virtually non-stop. His attention to detail and customer satisfaction is first rate.

I'm thrilled with my new deck. I highly recommend RaySon for all your contracting needs.

Great job done. Fast and friendly service.

Thanks again!!

Raymond showed up on time and did a very good job He's easy to deal with and very knowledgeable. Would use him again and refer to my friends/family.

Raymond did an excellent job of refinishing our upstairs bathroom. The quality of work was excellent stayed on budget and was very kind and courteous as well. His prices were very reasonable and a detailed bill with work done and hours logged was always provided. He did such a great job we want him to finish our downstairs bathroom as well.

Highly recommended.

Raymond did a great job on both accounts, he showed up every time he said he would, and was always on time. Both jobs were done on time and on budget. He is a good person, and we will use him for many future jobs in our home.

My wife and I hired Rayson Electric to install a gas fireplace, we were given a very reasonable quote and when the job was completed, there was no surprises, we paid exactly what we were quoted. The finished product was second to none. We highly recommend Rayson Electric and will definitely use them again.

It was a long, dirty task, but Raymond came every day on time and little by little you see the difference. He would be sure to check with you if there may be changes or to make sure things were going as you expected, and wanted.. He worked to his full capacity to get things done in a timely manner, left the area clean every day. AND the work he did was superb, I would definitely hire him again and recommend him.

Raymond is efficient and reliable and does excellent work in a timely manner. He communicated every step of the way to ensure what I wanted completed. He fit me into his busy schedule and kept the appointments. I've already recommended Raymond to my co-workers and my family! Very impressed.

Work was done professionally, in good time, and left no mess. Price was reasonable, and I've used his services ever since.

We were very satisfied with the work that was done for us. The project was completed as I had requested. Raymond arrived on time and was pleasant to deal with. He explained everything he was doing as he went along. Any problems he encountered were quickly rectified. He cleaned up the work site and left no garbage for us to deal with.

We would certainly call him again.

Raymond completed our walk-in closet (that was bare concrete), he installed an interior door to make a bedroom, installed a light in our shower, as well as 3 ceiling fans on our top floor. He was friendly, approachable, caring, and such a nice person. Very easy going and very accommodating to our requests and directions. Would certainly recommend him to others as Raymond is quite the handyman.

Job well done it was done in a short time and it was excellant workmanship. I showed my deck to people I know and they said how good the work that was performed. Ray has other jobs for me as well as jobs for my family members. Ray is excellant workman.

I have been using RaySon Electrical & General Contracting to perform electrical work on my rentals for a few years now. Raymond has been great, he always showed up on time for estimate and work. He performed the work as I requested, and some time extra work at no cost. I would recommend him to anyone.

Thanks again Raymond

Raymond is an excellent electrician and a gentleman. He successfully rewired my entire home (aluminum wiring to copper) and has performed many other household repairs and also some painting over the past 8 years. He is my "go to" person when I need something installed or repaired that is beyond my capabilities. He is an honest, trusted and conscientious tradesman!
