We have a new build that was wired by C&B Electric , so far our home has had hot wires that have been touching power wires in light switches causing the electricity to go out in my main bathroom and main bedroom. When I called to get a tech to come out, they wanted me to wait 2 weeks without power before one would come fix the issue.
Next issue I had was my dyer, my first one when plugged in to the 220v, errored and burned out and wouldn’t turn on. So I purchased a new one from Home Depot and had them come install it, as soon as they plugged the new dryer into the wall, it made a loud pop and burnt smell. We checked the breaker and it had popped the 220v breaker and it would not turn back on. So at this point we realized it was a problem with the 220v plug. I contacted C&B , they came out and checked the plug and sure enough it was wired incorrectly. That is highly dangerous. I asked C&B to reimburse me for my damaged dryer and they are taking no blame for it. This is also wrong. It’s clearly their faulty wiring job that damaged the dryer.
At this point I’m concerned for what else is wired wrong in my home.
Update- The 2 techs that have been sent out to work on the issues have done an excellent job correcting the problems with the electrical outlets.

The representative provided the answers to my questions and explained the chirping popping noise and the reason for the dimming lights.
I hired C&B electric to hang two ceiling fans, one inside in an office and one on my patio outside. My covered patio is really high and they did a great job. Highly recommend.
Joel is awesome!!! Straight shooter, friendly, easy to talk to, answered all my questions and offered knowledgeable feedback.
He replaced a recessed light and gave us ample space/time to make our decision on adding an outlet to the office space.
We decided to move forward with the outlet install.
Joel came back weeks later… the Installation was efficient, he wore shoe covers, measured thrice & cut once, taped the wall before he cut, cuts in the drywall were clean, and he cleaned up all the dust & debris.
Great work and I would definitely call Joel for our next job!

The entire experience has been wonderful. We’ve been using C&B Electric for over 7 years and have always had a perfect outcome. Joel does an outstanding job and works very quickly!
We made an appointment to get an estimate to install ceiling fans and the technician, Joel, showed up as promised and gave us a reasonable price. Due to his schedule, he was able to start that afternoon and came back the next morning to complete the work. Very satisfactory and pleasant to work with
Not happy with CB electric. We just moved in to a new build and paid extra for the entertainment package which apparently did not include an outlet behind the TV so I have the cable showing. I also have cables sticking out of the wall that I don’t know what to do with, when I asked the tech about it he didn’t really know what they were and there were no instructions. Lastly the package came with a door bell camera that is not working because I changed the my WiFi company, when I called them they said it would cost $130 for them to reconnect so I am changing to Ring door bell that is less of a headache. Overall CB Electric just not worth it.
