Recommended Customer Reviews

Carter Electric has been responsive, professional and consistent each time we have used them. We highly recommend them for both home and landscape needs!

Not having knowledge of local electrical contractors, I relied on reviews and advertising. Carter Electric (CE) performed their work on time. The team was very nice and knowledgeable about their work. I needed a hot tub spa wired and my electrical panel was on the other side of the house, they ran new cable wire and worked around the hot tub company's schedule to complete the job. Highly recommend this company for electrical needs. We will be using them again.

I can't recommend Carter Electric enough. 6 stars? I wish. Gabriel was our technician. He was amazing in terms of abilities, time consciousness, and customer service. He was amenable, funny, helpful, and made recommendations for future work. This was one of our best experiences with the trades. Gabriel made the difference. What if we all had a Gabriel coming to our homes to help out? It would be a better world! On time, on budget, fabulous work. Whew! Thank you!

I've worked with Carter Electric for many years. They are responsive, professional, and do quality work. Tony has a knack for hiring as well as I've enjoyed working with all of his crew. They are engaging and can explain things to you in simple terms. You can't go wrong with Tony and his crew!

The quote to move our Spa junction box from one side of our house to another was very reasonable. After I approved the estimate getting on their schedule fit within my timeline expectations. The work that was done was excellent and I would highly recommend Carter Electric!!

We've used Carter Electric for several projects, and highly recommend them for whatever you might need done. They are prompt, efficient & professional, in addition to being personable. When we have a question, they explain it in layman's terms. Michelle returns calls quickly & I can't say enough positive things about Cody & Chris & the rest of the gang. Carter Electric is our ""go to"" place!

We needed work done to fix our bathroom light and fan. The previous owners of the house used a ground wire as the neutral. I called around and Carter Electric was the first people available to come out. Cody showed up on time, actually he was a bit early, diagnosed the problem quickly and got to work fixing the problem. He did a great job. My dog liked him, too.

Great company and dealing with Tony was great. They did two jobs for me - one small and one big. Excellent work on both and always showed up & on time when they said they would be at the job site. Highly recommend.

In my recent struggle with a furness issue I learned

I lucked out and called Tony Carter he sent out the
Techs they Discovered my problem was not electrical but they referred ""Absolute Comfort"" who saved me 5500. With a different approach to the needed
Repair recommended by another company.
Smart businesses make smart referrals.

They guys at Carter Electric wired up our Hot Tub and also helped with some other electrical issues we were having. With all the construction going on in our city due to the Carr Fire last year I was thankful to have them take care of us. Reasonable rates and not just professional but personable as well, I highly recommend Carter Electric and will continue to call them any time I have an electrical need at our home!
