My quote was $800 to wire the light and run the electric for 2 pumps and an outlet.

Luckilly for me he finished while I was away and just left the invoice, before I paid it the electrical inspector came out and said the circuit breaker he used for the pool was the wrong brand (upon closer inspection by me, he had to actually take a knife and cut away plastic to even make the thing fit). I then inspected everything more in depth myself and found grounding wires not hooked up and a few other problems.

He never returned any of my calls, so I fixed the problems myself. I never did pay him so it really only cost $50 for a new breaker and my time to fix his mistakes.

So... to sum it up, I was quoted $800 in KY for someone who wasn't very good at what he did.
