Founded in 2003 by Tony Blanca, Lightning Bug Electric has deep roots in the community. Tony Blanca developed his expertise in the U.S. Navy, where he spent ten years as a Construction Electrician with the Seabees. Having experienced the demands of hard work, Tony instills that same dedication in our team. You can trust that you’ve found ""America's Brightest Electricians"" and the most diligent electricians in the Metro Atlanta Area.

We at Lightning Bug Electric prioritize providing top-notch electrical work. Being a local business, we provide clear, flat-rate pricing that you agree to before we start any job.

When I was younger, I had a habit of taking apart things that weren’t working to fix them. I recall one instance when I dismantled a small kitchen appliance without realizing it was still plugged in. Indeed, I received a shock, and that incident marked the beginning of my journey. Originally from Florida, my grandfather was an electrician and my father a painter. I think I got my electrical enthusiasm from my grandfather and my business acumen from my parents. My parents owned a painting business, and I recall the hard work involved in running a company. I hope to carry on the legacy of a successful electrical business that honors my grandfather and parents.

Love these guys!

I had a list of fixtures needing to be upgraded, my pantry and coat closet were dim, needed an additional floodlight installed and all floodlights moved to LED and we were in serious need of a contractor install repair (a shortcut was taken and we needed a jacuzzi tub moved to its own circuit).

As I have done before, I called Tim at Lightning Bug. He came out, gave me a fair quote and had Leo, Lee and Steve out to address my issues. These guys are friendly and were really good at keeping us informed about what to expect throughout the two-day process.

I highly recommend these guys - they go above and beyond to make sure they meet all your lighting/electrical needs. They offer great ideas that really make a difference in your home... I can't speak highly enough!

Great customer service, same day service, Bobby was very friendly, knowledgeable and honest! He discovered quickly that my problem was with electric company and even called electric company for me to set up an appointment. Won't hesitate to call again if needed.

Had them install 2 new circuits. 1 for a heat pump and the 2nd for an A/C unit. They also replaced the electrical panel with new adding a few spare circuits. Pricing was not inexpensive but was competitive with the market and electrical work is one of those things that you get what you pay for. The guys started late (10 am) each day but also worked late (6 pm) each night. The work ended up taking 2 days instead of the quoted 1 day but the quoted price was honored. The guys were professional and courteous and even did a couple of extras at no cost. I would recommend this company if you need some electrical work.

I had an issue with a ballast and the lights in my kitchen. Bobby assessed the issue and corrected but unfortunately, the next day the light would not come on. It turns out the bulb cracked either on its own or through some type of a surge. It was really ODD because I know that everything was working just fine the day before. Anyway, he came right back and fixed ballast and bulb again. No problems no hassles. I would definitely call Lightning Bug again.

Bobby & Jaison were extremely knowledgeable and professional. They arrived on time, showed me the work that needed to be done, and explained everything in great detail. They answered all my questions and we will definitely call them for any of our electrical needs in the future! We were so pleased with this service; it's nice to know there are honest professionals out there doing good work!

I have had an overall positive experience with Lightning Bug. There was a time when they were taking a while to get back to me or non-responsive and after being frustrated by it I called the office to get through to them. That was the better move. I do my best not to call the techs themselves when possible about scheduling appointments now. When they come by they always make it up to me by giving me a great price and/or doing the work extra speedy for me. Thank you to Tim, Dwayne, Leo, James, & Steve!

I am very disappointed with this company.

They came to our home on a Friday to look over the job and were very professional and polite. Unfortunately, the service ended there.

They told us that they would call the following Monday with a quote. When we did not here back, my husband called on Tuesday to check up on things. He was told that they had to look into the price of materials.

It has been two weeks now, and we still do not have a quote. We have not even had a call to explain the delay or to say that they cannot take the job. Even if there is a reasonable explanation, I cannot see one for the lack of communication.

Jeremy and Cody, from Lightning Bug Electric came to our home yesterday to fix and replace a number of items. I am concerned about working with electricity, even though I know the theory of how things work. I was also concerned about price. I had one company come out last year that wanted $100 just to come out, and you could only get that money back if you used their services, which were highly overpriced. So, I was concerned about inviting Lightning Bug, but the Yelp reviews were encouraging.

Jeremy and Cody arrived at about 10 AM and stayed most of the day. Switches were tested and replaced, lights replaced, and a new outlet installed. The biggest challenge was that we have a new ""home theater,"" that had been a play room, but was recently completely changed. The problem was that we still had overhead fluorescent lights, which really detracted from what we wanted. Jeremy and Cody, after some discussion about what might look best, installed wall sconces that were dim-able, and I love them.

Price was a concern, but they were upfront with their costs. They were reasonable (slightly less than what I thought it would be), and they got it all done the same day. That was remarkable. Love it. Now my wife is finding new things to get fixed.

Thanks Jeremy, Cody, and Lightning Bug!
