I called Armored because I needed a new panel and an upgrade to my service. First off, they charge $200 just to come out and do an estimate. We were surprized as we'd never heard of this, but since we hadn't heard from other electricians that we had called, we paid it. The owner of the company met me at the house, looked at the breaker box and the service coming into the house. He was there for 20 minutes total and I gave him the check. Two weeks later I still hadn't heard from them, nor had I gotten an estimate (though they had cashed the check the day after I wrote it.). When I called the front desk to inquire about the missing quote, the lady put me on hold then came back on to tell me they were still working it up and I would have it by that evening. The following day, when the quote didn't appear in my email or by snail mail, I went by the office and requested a refund. The lady I spoke with said that it had been mailed out the day before (yet here we are, 5 days later, and it still hasn't come in the mail) but that she would be happy to print me a copy. $23,000 was the quote. In the two weeks that had passed, we got another quote of $6,000. Do what you want, but I would seriously reconsider giving business to this company.
