I had a problem with my furnace, just as it was starting to get cold. In order to save money, I tried everything I could to fix it myself (reset it, changed the filter, changed a fuse). When nothing worked, I called the company that I purchased the furnace from about 3 years ago. The owner (Grant Mechanical) said he'd charge me $240 just to come to my house. So I looked for some more reasonable referrals through a Home Depot referral service. I found a company, Atlas Trillo, who came out and said the problem was electrical. They said they could fix it for $446, which did not include the $89 they charged to come to my home. Given the high cost, I decided to get an estimate from an actual electrician. Fortunately, I contacted Absolute Electrical. They came to my house, fixed my electrical problem and charged me $248 total. They're my new go-to furnace folks. Good work, honest people. 5 stars. I'd give more if I could.

We hired them to run a new electrical conduit & wire for the pool engine cover. They were on time, and very professional. Replaced the breakers with GFI, ran a 60 feet trench and constructed the conduit.
The team included Brian and Jeff, who were really great and also explained everything they were doing.
If I could add a 6 star I would. It's always great to meet professionals who care about what they do.
Highly recommended.

Jeff was amazing! He came out on time, provided a competitive and timely quote. When the guys came out to do the actual circuit installation They were planning to do something other than the quoted plan. We called Jeff. He came out personally to oversee the project. It was done according to the original quote! the guys cleaned up afterward and it looks and works fantastic! My Mom asked him to take a look at her bedroom socket, which turned out to be something simply. He helped and didn't charge anything! I didn't know this type of customer service still exists. If you need any electric work, call him today!

Absolute Electric is the best. Someone else had blown my main breaker and I was totally without power that was in addition to the original problem of my air conditioning not working. It was almost 90 out. Heat index was ridiculous. I called Jason on Saturday afternoon. He had me snap a couple of picture of my panel. A few minutes later I knew what he was going to do, what it would cost and when he would be here. This was on a Saturday afternoon. He got here, worked until he had my power back on.I had lights, outlets, and my refrigerator and microwave worked. .By then it was 11:30. He came back the next morning. And a couple of hours later everything was done. I had a completely new panel, the wiring is gorgeous, not the rats nest it had been he'd replaced a broken outlet, fixed my air. He is spectacular. He took care of everything. Made sure everything worked. When it's 90 degrees and you have no lights, no air, no ability to cool off and someone works that hard to get you up and running. That's service. I will never use anyone else. And I will recommend Absolute Electrical to everyone.

I wish I could give Absolute Electrical 10 STARS!!! Jeff came out on time and I explained to him my issue. Which was our old stove was hardwired and I had a person come out to change that to a 220 volt, because that's what was told to me and so I did. Well, the new stove still didn't work and I was told I needed to hire a professional. So the first company who came out told my husband that the people before use( owners of the condo who did the remodel ) had someone wire everything wrong and that our circuit panel was so old that it needed to be changed out, in order to get the stove working. So the price for that was $4200.00 :/ ( Aleco Electric) So I called Home Depot (where I bought the stove and they recommended using there connection ProReferral) This is how I found Absolute Electrical. I sent an email and they replied back right away with a next day appointment. I was thrilled. Long story short, it was a simple wire issue that wasn't connected right. That's it!! It took him five minute to switch the wires and the stove started working!! Seriously 5 minutes and he didn't even charge me. I was in tears and I'm still in tears as I write this review. I will tell all my friends about Absolute Electrical and I'm going to post this on other social sites.

I highly recommend Absolute Electrical. My elderly mother needed an electrical service upgrade at her house, where she lives alone. Absolute Electrical was recommended to me by a close friend. Jeff was very easy to work with in scheduling a time to do an estimate. My mom called me later to tell me how kind and polite he was. The crew was on time and completed the job efficiently and thoroughly. The cost of the job was identical to the estimate. I was incredibly happy with the combination of cost and quality and will 100% use Absolute Electrical again and refer them to friends and family.

My job was done in July last year. They went Amazon services and gave me really low quote before starting the job... At the end they charge me five times more. They put not correct size bulbs (very small ones). Job was eight recessed lights. Bulbs were very bright. I did not make any comments then...Trying to finish with them... Today I got correct size and brightness bulbs and replace them. Four out of eight bulbs end up in an angle...Assembly was done wrong. If you are a female and an advanced age don't go to them. They will take advantage of you.

These guys give you a really low quote before starting the job and when the job is done they'll charge you more than double. At no point did they communicate with me during the job that their original estimate for the job had changed. I told them exactly what the job required and that was exactly what they completed, nothing more. So why charge the customer more than double? And why do you not feel the need to communicate this to the customer? CROOKS, STAY AWAY!!!!

If I could give zero stars I would and also sue this business. They do work like crap. They quote you something else and then charge you something else after job completes. They quoted me $300 and charged me $800 after the job was done. At least tell the customer before hand as to what you're going to charge.

We have an older home in Hillsborough that needed an electrician. The first problem involved tracing a circuit that powered an external outlet. The other issue related to correcting a 3-way switch configuration. I selected Absolute Electrical because Jeff had helped me with wiring a sub-panel several years earlier.

I am somewhat fussy about electrical work because I have an engineering background and I am familiar with the idiosyncrasies of our home where multiple remodeling projects have been completed over the years. The home is now also occupied by a tenant.

Absolute Electrical sent Matt out to our home. Matt completed both projects and did an excellent job.They were not easy projects. Specifically, I liked working with Matt because:

- He was careful and respectful of the tenant
- Matt crawled under the house (unpleasant) and ran a completely new circuit to eliminate the problem
- Took the time to carefully diagnose the 3-way switch problem
- He was experienced with older wiring problems and had intelligent answers to my questions about the best options
