My tenants notified me of an urgent electrical issue last night. I wrote 15+ of the top rated electricians in my area, of which I heard back from about 10. A few weren't available, and others provided outrageous upfront quotes or really high trip charges + hourly rates.

I felt comfortable with James immediately and he was at my property in about an hour or so after our initial contact, coming from about 30min away. He charged me a very reasonable fee and quickly resolved the issue along with another associate of his. I will reaching back out in the future whenever I need anything electrical related done.

Thanks James and team!

I called about a burning smell in the house, and the technician who answered was incredibly friendly and informative to help narrow down what it could be.

They were close by and took the time to stop by and investigate the burning smell. Even though they discovered that the smell was actually from a skunk and not an electrical problem, they didn't charge me for the visit.

I highly recommend them for any electrical needs. They are reliable, courteous, and customer-focused. I have also used them in the past for other work and each time they have been courteous and helpful in solving the issue at hand, , even in this case when it was more of a pest control problem

James was awesome! I called him about a breaker/GFCI issue and he was at my house within 2 hours! He diagnosed and fixed the problem in less than an hour and our electricity was back up and running! Very reasonable pricing as well. I highly recommend him for any electrical issues! Thank you James!

Really appreciate James helping us out. We had a weird issue with our new Wolf range where it would trip our breaker intermittently - we had multiple electricians come out to look at it. This took over a year and we were without an oven for the past 3 months. James troubleshot with me on the phone and agreed that it wasn't a straightforward fix. He came out to take a look - debugged some with me and gave me a free estimate.

It did take some time to schedule, but they came out today and reran a new circuit from our breaker panel and finally found the issue while running the new wiring - the old wiring had a cut in it and was intermittently touching and arcing and could have started a fire.

His guys cleaned up nicely and patched the holes they made. Thanks again James!

James has done work at our home on two occasions, and both experiences have been excellent. He's communicative, respectful of our home, and detail oriented. I will happily call him again for any future needs and would recommend him to anyone needing an electrician.

James and his team were great! From getting the quote, responsiveness and overall quality of work I highly recommend them! I got recessed lighting installed and I'm SO happy with how it turned out. Highly recommend!

James was amazing! Great experience overall. I put out a request to a few people for a quote for a ceiling fan install. James responded with a precise quote for the cost of labor + the fan to be installed and provided all parts, so I didn't have to purchase anything on my own. He gave me the details of the product he planned to install so I could google and ensure it is what I wanted. He texted me to align on scheduling and let me know when he had time open up earlier in case I wanted him to come early. He was super nice and arrived and installed the fan wonderfully. Great guy, great experience. Highly recommend. :)

Custom electric modernized my lighting by swapping out 6 of my old 4pin lighting fixtures to an LED dimmable setup. From the very beginning of the quote process they were upfront about the cost and were able to finish the project within an hour. The price they quoted me was better than competitors and the quality was exactly what I was hoping to get . I would 100% recommend the company to others looking for electrical and lighting jobs to be done quickly and with quality.

We have had several great experiences with this business. They always respond very quickly to inquiries. The team is friendly, professional, and honest. I don't feel like I'm being taken advantage of or ripped off. Their prices are fair and the work is always really good. No complaints, will use this company again!

This is your Electrician!! Normally, I handle most light electrical issues at my home, but when I troubleshoot it down to a faulty Circuit Breaker, I knew it was time to call in the professionals. After numerous attempts with other electricians and realized all they cared about was the $175 cost per hour. I feared how expensive this job would be, especially if I needed to update my electrical panel. Finally, after a last-ditch effort, I found Custom Electric SD. Spoke to James on the phone and told him my situation and instead of trying to sell me
a new panel, he simply said he could probably just switch out the fault Circuit breaker with a new one. His honesty assured me I had found the right company. The day of the appointment the electrician exceeded my expectations and I even had them add a new outlet, something I had on my to-do list for a while. I was charged a fair, upfront fee for all the work that was done and the whole process was simple. I highly recommend this company for its honesty and care of taking care of their customer's needs.
