Amazing guy! I had issues with wiring on my outlet and circuit breaker. He coached me over the phone and i was able to fix it myself:) he didnt even charge me a single cent for his time and advise. I called other electricians they quoted me 300 for just the diagnostics. Rick is very thoughtful and honest. I would highly recommend!!!!

Rick has done several jobs at my house & I recommend him 100%! Not only is he efficient and knowledgeable but also a super nice guy!
**Update -just had Rick over again to do some outdoor lighting, as usual, he was efficient & professional. I consider him my ""go to"" Electrician!

I am so disappointed... I've been trying to reach Mr. Murtaugh for months now unsuccessfully. He did work for me in the past and I'd like to hire him again but he doesn't return my calls. At least call and say you are too busy.

Richard is awesome! He's a true professional that goes above and beyond to take care of you! He's fixed us all up, and even helped us figure out what was going on with our garbage disposal! He's very nice, honest and reasonable. Would recommend him for sure and he's def our electrical guy from now on! Thanks Richard!

Richard is beyond amazing! He helped fix a short underneath my house. The wires were so old that they burned in half. Richard set up a junction box and rewired the outlet to make sure our dryer was back in business. I would highly recommend Richard to anyone that is looking for an honest and experienced electrician. Thanks again Richard!

We have had Rick from Murtaugh Electric do work for us on a few different occasions and will continue to call him for our future electrical needs. He has installed Can lighting, added a couple new electrical outlets, and installed some outdoor lighting for us. He also helped me resolve an electrical issue with our outdoor kitchen over the phone. Rick is a hard worker and has always been very professional, dependable, prompt and affordable. I would highly recommend him.

My husband and I needed two ceiling fans installed. We called Murtaugh Electric for an estimate and Richard came out the next day. He was a very knowledgable, personable, and professional business man. He helped us find what would work best in our house, and he did so at a reasonable rate. He was honest and helpful. He was able to fit the job in the next day and completed it quickly. We were very impressed with every part of our experience. Not to mention, our house is so much cooler and the fans look great. Thank you, Richard and Murtaugh Electric!

I called Rick about coming over and looking at what I thought was a serious electrical problem at our home. He arrived and started looking at the panel and said that it didn't appear to have any problems. He then looked at the list of fixtures, switches and outlets that were not working and took one step at a time and resolved all the issues. He was effective, efficient and shared each of the issues and what he did to repair it. Needless to say we were impressed with his knowledge and service attitude..... He also insured me that ""No job is to small"" so I know I will be calling him as we redo each room in our home!!

We wanted to add some drop down ceiling lamps over our breakfast bar. Rick was very responsive, communication was great, and was very helpful and knowledgeable in helping us decide exactly what we wanted. Work was done promptly and professionally. I have a new electrician for life!

Richard installed 6 ceiling fans in our home. It was well done in a timely manner and his rates are fair and affordable. Very professional, trustworthy business. If we ever needed anything else electrical done in our house we would definitely be repeat clients. Thank you Murtaugh Electric!
