In my youth, I often disassembled broken items to try and repair them. I remember a time I took apart a kitchen gadget, not knowing it was still connected to power. Indeed, I received a shock, and that incident marked the beginning of my journey. Coming from Florida, I was influenced by my grandfather, an electrician, and my father, a painter. I think I got my electrical enthusiasm from my grandfather and my business acumen from my parents. Having parents in the painting business, I witnessed the dedication required to operate a successful venture. I hope to carry on the legacy of a successful electrical business that honors my grandfather and parents.

Recommended Customer Reviews
Sam and Miguel were so helpful and did a fantastic job. They saw what we thought was just a bad fuse was actually a potential fire hazard. Which another electrician had ignored! They worked well into the evening making sure everything was changed out and safe. We plan on using them again for another project. I highly recommend them!
Their customer service was great too. Ayona was so helpful. I couldn't believe I was getting responses on Saturday and Sunday! Thank you all so much
Frank M.Great service! My service rep/tech was Steven. He was very professional, knowledgeable and courteous. He noted & showed me a couple of improper wiring (and potentially dangerous conditions from the previous company that installed by breaker box (under sized wiring for 20A circuits)) and corrected it. He genuinely wanted to make sure that everything was properly up to safety code/standards. He installed a new 14-50 outlet for a ev charger and the quality of workmanship was superb. I will use them for my upcoming projects, specifically asking for Steven for my technician.
Lastly I tip my hat to the owner; during finishing up the project we chatted for a while & Steven relayed how the owner treats his employees so well. That how you keep great, dedicated employees.
Cody came by today to repair a few issues we had.
He was on time, did good work, was knowledgeable, and was fairly priced.
I'm actually having him come by again in the next week or two to perform another project.
Highly Recommended !!
While they showed up quickly for the multi-day job, they dragged out the work, and failed to show for several days. Once the job was complete, multiple electrical issues were identified several weeks later, and Lightning Bug refused to come back and fix their faulty work.
Michael M.This company is 100% amazing and professional.
I recently had some in-house wiring work done (coax cable extension). The tech came out and observed the home and the potential labor. The techs name is Jeremy. After some witty banter and great conversation he revealed himself to be a very approachable and professional technician. He clearly understood my needs and was quoted a fair price. My appointment was scheduled for the following week between 10am - 12pm.
Jeremy arrived promptly and began work. He managed various difficulties the house presented to him with the expertise one would expect. Before long he finished the job. I tested the coaxial line and everything is operational. This entire experience has been fantastic and I even made a friend in Jeremy. I highly recommend this place. Prices are fair and the work is top quality. Trust me - You will not be disappointed in the least.
Ada M.Tim called me after my review posted. He did apologize for the woman I spoke to not offering to make any accommodations. They honored the Yelp offer and refunded me as if I had purchased the deal. He also explained that their pricing is high due to the insurance they have to carry for their techs and their work. I really appreciate that the company cares enough to read their Yelp reviews and contact me.
Hired them to install several three-way lights. Electrician said, after the second one, that I did not need a three-way light. Had to debate the difference between what was needed and wanted. Like, that's what I hired him to do!
Bar none, the best experience I've ever had with a service professional. James gave us the white glove treatment, was exceptionally thoughtful and informative and did amazing work.
Also, I *love* that they give you a time window for arrival, but then update you with a precise time that day.
Very unprofessional and displays the lowest form of customer service. Attached are screenshots.
I called for an estimate for multiple small projects around a new house including installing ceiling fans, adding outlets and lights in the garage etc. Someone came out within a few days to look over all my projects and provided a full estimate within 15 mins. Estimate was presented separated out by line item so we could decline anything we didn't agree with but all pricing was good. When I originally called I was told it would probably take a few days to actually schedule the work once we approved but they were able to have people out to complete same day. We found some pretty interesting, past owner DIY's that took a lot to fix but the guys stayed until all the items were complete which I'm sure was well past their end of shift. I will definitely call them again for any other electrical project.
