Have been utilizing there services for 2 years now and they are excellent!! Prompt professional great customer service
As an entrepreneur myself I have high standards as to how my team treats customers and therefore I expect the same from the vendors and businesses I work with personally when I am the customer. Tom in the service dep't was always very prompt and clear in his communication via email and phone. I was pleasantly surprised by this as it is unusual these days. Their team came out promptly and did routine service to my generator. 6 months later my generator stopped working and they promptly came back out to check it. Turned out there was corroded wire to the battery. They had the opportunity to try and sell me something I didn't need, but instead they did what was right by me the ignorant home owner. At one point there was a misunderstanding between the service tech and the main office where the service tech thought he was doing a routine service again not just fixing the issue at hand. They took full responsibility and didn't charge me but still fixed my issue. I will be back. You can't buy honesty and trust. It is earned. thank you Ambrose Electric for your standard of customer service. Keep it up!
I called Ambrose with an emergency. The tech responded within minutes, not hours. Turns out, he arrived just in time to avoid damage to our generator which they had expertly installed. He adjusted oil level and completely checked out the system. Yearly maintenance is a must! Highly recommended.
Ambrose installed our Generac Generator. Great job, organized, professional and they did what they proposed. Guys were professionals, neat and efficient. I have been in construction for 50 years, never saw a better example of a great outfit.
Their work is impeccable. They arrived when they said they would, clean and extremely professional. You can tell that the employees are happy at their job. They all work so well together. We can’t say enough about Ambrose Electric . Other than how GREAT they are. Thank you Ambrose!
I called Ambrose Electric to service my generator upon recommendation from another company. They came out for service when they said they would and were happy to answer any and all of my questions. They provided kind and professional service that I would absolutely recommend!
Great company!! They came promptly and serviced my generator. Left a detailed notice of what they did in my mailbox and also sent me an email with the same information. Customer service on the phone was great, prompt with callbacks and very courteous. Highly recommend and will use again next year!
We were referred to this company as they purchased a business from a local individual (Saratoga Springs) advising they purchased his business and would be servicing all his former customers (we received both a letter and email). We never hear from the new company and when I called recently to schedule our annual generator service (after an email and 2 phone calls/messages), we were advised they do not provide service to customers up north. We called our prior contact and he was surprised to learn that Ambrose is not servicing "all" of his clients as they agreed to. Found another reputable and reliable company that we will now use and who is happy to service clients from a previous colleague.
always prompt with annual service. been with them for 6 years. worry free!
Good, consistent service.
When another Generac dealer told me in needed $2000.00 worth of work, these guys did it for 81.00 and the unit is working perfectly now!!!!!!!!!! They are the only people that I will use from this day forth!
Ive had my generator serviced by Ambrose Electric for multiple years. Everyone at Ambrose Electric is courteous, knowledgeable and professional. I highly recommend Ambrose Electric.
They installed generac standby generator in Jan. 2022. Came back to fix some ground erosion under unit for no charge. Very good crew and management. We are quite pleased.
Always reliable. Their service man Shaq is very thorough and professional. Excellent company to service your Generac needs.
Technician showed up in a light rain to do the yearly service. Explained fully what he was going to do. He said itd take a 1/2 and if I didnt hear from him again then everything was fine.
Recently had our generator serviced and the technician was prompt and friendly.
Whenever Ive had an issue theyve been right on it. Thank you Ambrose!
Excellent service!! We would highly recommend Ambrose Electric to anyone wishing to purchase a generator!
Kind and professional people. Very good at communication. Explained everything in understandable language. Looking forward to my generator installation.
I have a generac 22kw generator and they installed it, they are the best.
Second year in a row that Ambrose has done an excellent job servicing my generator.
Responsive. Fair price. Weve used before and will continue in the future.
Back again in 2024.... Ambrose is the Capital Districts only place to have your Generac unit serviced!!! Ill just add to last years... they are awesome. Jenn reached out to me to schedule my yearly maintenance. They will show up when they can and leave a door tag that its done. Ambrose all the way!!! Yet again, Ambrose to the rescue. I gotta say everyone with this organization is amazing. Panicked a week or so ago because I realized the generator wasn t exercising as expected. Panel was dead. Well. Dead battery. Was a Sunday. Possible issues with Hurricane Henri looming. I pulled the battery myself and was able to get a new one. Here s where Ambrose comes to the rescue. I call on Monday. Maybe a bit miffed that something was missed. Charging system not working. Battery was old but not THAT old. Talk to service. Immediate scheduling of a tech to come out and verify charging system was good and it was just the battery. Batteries go bad. And they go bad quick. Nothing to be done about that. The fact they made room in their busy schedule to get someone out here ASAP to make sure the charging system was good is why I highly recommend the folks at Ambrose.
Had Ambrose out to help with electrical issues that turned out to be a National Grid problem. They were top notch and professional from start to finish. They were very helpful explaining our problem and did a thorough checkup of our generator while here. Pricing was very fair. Will definitely use again and highly recommend!
They serviced our backup generator during an emergency. They were quick, clean and professional. Very happy with their service and would recommend them.
When looking to get a generator installed, Mike was awesome at coming over to give a quote and was very responsive to all of my questions by email. The quote was lower than their competitors, and they installed it much faster than expected. The crew was very courteous not to get any dirt on the floors of the house, and they did a great job of teaching us how to operate and maintain the equipment. Im very impressed with their service!
Had a standby generator installed. Top notch service from start to finish. Would highly recommend them. The worry of power is never on my mind anymore. Cant wait to see it work. Thanks Mike and crew.
We purchased a 24KW Generator and transfer switch from Ambrose Electric and had them do the install the whole system. This is our second generator at our location as the 15 year old Koehler was not being supported by our local Cummins dealer and had issues since originally purchased. Ambrose did a professional job, showed up on time..did as they said they d do ( our installation was not easy as the propane line needed to be relocated and the main heat pump needed a safety relay/module. The price was good compared to 3 other quotes we received. After installation follow up was superb. We had a issue with our electric service 5 days after they completed installation. I called them thinking it had something to do with what they did. They responded quickly and checked EVERYTHING over completely. There electrician surmised it was a service problem with National Grid, there was no charge for the visit. The next day National Grid came out and found the problem on our connection to the power pole on the street. I have had two more times that I needed to contact Ambrose over the last 9 months for just questions, there contact Michael Stein was always available promptly and courteously. If there were 6 stars available I d give them that.
We have a 10 year old self starting home backup Generac Generator. We get annual service/check ups on it. The last couple months it started having problems self starting. Despite us knowing how to reset and restart it ourselves..it got to the point where it just would not start. Wed had the battery replaced within the last 1-2 yrs, so my spouse and I thought maybe things are going bad on it, and its just time to have the Generator replaced. We had 5 local companies come out to look it over with Ambrose Electric being the second to last one for problem solving, and/or an estimate. Mike Stein, the Vice President of Ambrose came out and thought it might be the Step Motor. He offered to have one of his techs come out the next morning to CHECK IT OVER FOR FREE, and based on what the tech found, Mike would inform us either what it would cost to fix it, or send us an estimate for a new generator. When I came home from work the next day....there was a message from Mike on our home phone. When I called him back---he said the generator simply needed valve adjusting and will work fine for several more years. I was surprised, and asked him, what do we owe you? He responded with: NOTHING---your records show youre due for another service in November, so I recommend you get it serviced then, and if any problems before that--let me know! WOW!!!! We are so impressed!!! THIS MAN could have said anything from having whatever fixed to whatever price, or that we needed a new generator. But---he was HONEST! We are sticking with Ambrose Electric, and HIGHLY RECOMMEND them for your Generator / electrical needs!!!
Generac Service. Fast and professional.
Diagnosised and fixed my 15 year old generator. Staff very knowledgeable and easy to work with. Seemed determined to fix the issues which was great to see. Would highly recommend. generator purring like a kitten now.
I got estimates from three different companies for a Generac standby generator. The other two were about $50 apart, but Ambrose was about $2,000 lower than both. The Generac website has a cost estimator, and Ambrose was about $1,000 over that one. I figured that could be due to other installation costs - the Generac site made it clear that installation could be higher. Mike did the estimate for us. Nice guy and is very knowledgeable. He was always made time to answer questions when I called him. I had asked him about a UPS for my router and modem - he recommended a great product. However, I am glad I had gotten the two other estimates because I got more useful information from them about installation factors than I did from Mike. Paul, Cam, and Dom did the installation. They were polite and respectful, and completed the job quickly. They were very good about communicating when my electric would be turned off. They carefully explained everything I needed to know about how the generator and transfer panel worked. I highly recommend this company.
Didnt get a chance to use them but friends say theyre great
Polite and efficient workmen and office staff. They provide true customer service.
Our experience with Abrose Electric was top notch. We had a 16kW generator installed and the job was done efficiently and professionally by an exceedingly qualified team. We requested an estimate after some severe storms knocked out power out for several days and within a week we had someone out to take a look. Generac was experiencing shortages of supply at the time, but Ambrose kept us up to date on when wed expect an install and were attentive to any concerns we had about delays. When our install time came, our team arrived exactly on time and we courteous and informative. The install looks clean and they took care of our property to make things look seamless, as though the generator had always been there. They were done in under their estimated amount of time and after a tour of our system we feel confident in its use and performance. 5 stars all around!
Great!
Just had a Generac Standby generator installed by Ambrose. The three man crew showed up right on time with everything they needed. They were very friendly and professional. Before starting they went over the whole project with me. Where did I want the controller mounted? How did I want the cables run? Etc. They then did the job and the end results are excellent. A very professional installation, and absolutely no mess was left behind. I had signed the agreement several months prior but installation was delayed while I waited to get a concrete pad poured. Ambrose made no effort to change the price or terms and no attempt to sell me extras that I didnt need. What was agreed upon was carried out to the letter. I am totally pleased.
Very unprofessional. They came out 4 times and after every time the generator did not work and another part had to be replaced . Not a coincidence. Do not believe the reviews you read they are probably lies . The truth is their mechanics are mediocre at best and if you believe their fake reviews you will see for your self
They show up when they say they will and are professional in their demeanor and work.
Regular maintenance was routinely taken care of with a professional technician. The unit was cleaned even on the outside. Thank you
I am very pleased with Ambrose Electric and the team of Frank, Mike, Dylan, Paul, Anthony and Max that helped me with my project. Everyone was professional and thorough from start to finish. I really appreciated Frank s willingness to going above and beyond to address 2 items that needed attention outside of the original project plan. I highly recommend Ambrose!
I checked on residential generators last year, and found that Ambrose Electric installs and services the type that was recommended. They gave me the information I needed to choose the correct size I needed and they installed it. I havent had any problems with the generator, and Ambrose Electric has been available to answer any questions Ive asked. There have been a few power outages since the generator was installed. None were for more than a few hours, but I was very happy that the generator was on-line.
Tom is the BEST!
Good place
Very professional and courteous
I had a whole house standby generator installed. Paul and his tem were very professional and quick. Very satisfied so far.
Living in Lake George, I was not sure if a company from Albany would be willing to drive this far for a Generac installation. Mike showed up for a free estimate, explained everything in great detail, and answered all of our questions. Extremely polite and professional. We purchased a Generac 22kw generator after receiving a quote that was more than fair. When Paul and the guys showed up for the install, their professionalism, attention to detail, and thorough explanation of the system was beyond our expectations. I would HIGHLY recommend going with this company if you are considering any electrical work, and if you think you live too far away, give them a call, you may be pleasantly surprised.
We used Ambrose Electric for annual generator maintenance. They were friendly, arrived in a timely fashion with notice given, and their online payment option makes paying the invoice simple. I would highly recommend.
Tom and Brandon were professional, responsible and fixed my problem by replacing the charging component of my stand by generator. I would highly recommend them for your electrical needs.
Ambrose was responsive to an early am call when my generator failed during a power outage. Brandon showed up, called ahead so I knew he was on way, and got the job done. Repaired and services my generator, and provided a new battery at a very responsible price. I will absolutely call them again for servicing and repairs.
Excellent service from a highly reputable, local company. I was pleased to have them provide service, as was my father before me. They came in with a very competitive bid. The showed up exactly when they said they would, completed the work on time and on budget, and then showed up again to help follow up with a minor landscaping issue caused by the work. I couldnt be happier. I would highly recommend this company for your electrical needs.
Mike , has the experience and ability to advertise you to obtain the best size generator for your needs and future endeavors.... Thank You....
I would not recommend them. They put a grounding pole through our pipe which caused a clog and flooded bathroom. They said they would reimburse us for plumber costs. Now refusing. They said it was on warranty. They fixed the pipe so 1 star. We paid them $2500 for original work. We should be reimbursed for the problems which was their mistake which cost us $2100.
I had a few electrical stuff to deal with and this guy from Ambrose Electric have me a quick appointment, came in and did all the work in 3 hours. Am so grateful!
We ve been using Ambrose Electric for our company quite a bit. They are always able to schedule us in. The techs are knowledgeable and professional. Very reliable company to work with. I highly recommend!
I needed Ambrosia Electric to do warranty work on a Generac generator. Mike Stine was very helpful in straightening out a bad generator. Thank you Ambrose Electric!
Larry is there residential specialist. His work is meticulous and hes a detail-oriented friendly guy.
Have them maintain 2 generators. They are knowledgeable, reliable and a pleasure to work with. Questions are answered promptly. I recommend them without reservation.
Great customer service. The technician was here promptly and fixed the issue and my generator was up and running in no time at all.
Great company to work with!!!! On time and very knowledgeable. Dave is the best!!!!!!!
I had Mike (the sales rep.) stop by an give me an estimate on a standby generator. He informed me on all that I would need to have one an which was would be the best. He answered all my questions an made it easy to understand what I needed an what it would take. Mike even gave me his email address as to which he promptly answered me back on several different questions I had. He called me at least once a week to ask either if I wanted my new generator installed early do to a cancellation or to inform me on my financing of my purchase. Mike also touched base with me a week prior to touch base on my install the following week. I had Dave an Frank install my new 11k standby generator. They both showed up 15mins early like I was told they would. The work they both did was beyond my satisfaction. They were both greatly experienced in their work an very professional. Dave an Frank made sure the job was done to perfection as well as clean up. I was informed on all the details of what I needed to know to operator my new generator an was also told not to hesitate to call them if I had any questions. Both Dave an Frank were not only great workers but a pleasure to have as my installers. I would recommend them both highly. An the same goes for the unit installed. For a generator like mine I was amazed as to how quite it was while running. The unit ran/run great an works like it should. I am more than pleased with the work as well as the product. Over all I was an am impressed with Mike an the installers on all their knowledge an professionalism, an I recommend Ambrose electric to anyone looking to have a generator installed.
