Recommended Customer Reviews

Peter is so pleasant. Easy to talk to. Answers every question. Doesn't over charge or ask for up front diag fees. Very competent on all things electrical, plus some. Ive had issues with other electricians, before. Basically trust issues, but not with Peter. We will only hire Peter in this family now forever. Thank you again Peter for getting the lights turned back on.

Peter is amazing! I called him on a Saturday night and he walked me through my breaker issue by simply looking at a picture. This was affecting my fridge and kitchen and gave me a quick fix over the phone. He is kind hearted, friendly, and definitely someone who I'll be using in the future and would refer friends and family to. Thanks again Peter! My entire family thanks you!!!

From start to finish, working with Peter was the easiest, most efficient, and productive experience I've had regarding hiring someone through Yelp to provide services. First of all, he quickly responded to my inquiry about having some electrical work done. He was able to provide a reasonable quote AND somehow was able to provide services that SAME day. Now, keep in mind, it wasn't an emergency, and I was prepared to hear that I would have to wait at least a few days for the next available opening....but NOPE...Peter came out that afternoon and got the work done. He wore his mask the entire time, did his work in an efficient manner, and was able to diagnose and fix a problem that came up during his visit. Before he left, Peter even helped me with a repair he wasn't able to complete (because I didn't have the correct part - not his fault) by physically showing me how I could do it myself once I got the part. I will definitely be reaching out to Peter for any electrical needs in the future! Thanks, Peter!

Just called Peter, based on his reviews. I was very lucky that he had an opening this morning. He came out within 1 hour. He replaced a wall light switch. Quick,
Knowledgeable, Friendly and Economical. What's not to LOVE! Thanks, Peter.

I've done lots of remodeling in the past and usually, get contractor referrals from friends. Nowaday, I look for all of my contracting work via Yelp and that's how I found Peter.
I emailed Peter all the pics and explained in the email but didn't hear back from him so I called him to make sure he received my email. It turned out that Peter is not active with his email. Texting or calling works best for him. I resent my pics via text and explained to Peter what I needed to do and would like a free estimate. He said he was close by and he can stop by in 30 minutes. He showed up in 20 minutes and was able to give me a reasonable rate. He started the job to install a 50 amp box for my RV and completed the job in two hours. I provided the box and the breaker and he only charged me labor, wiring, and conduit. All in all, I'm happy with the work and his reasonable rate. Best of all, from the time I called him to the time he completed the work is only 3+ hours.
5* from me and will use Peter again in the future.

Peter is our go-to-guy for all things electrical. He has come out numerous times to install ceiling fans/lights, sockets, rewire and he even installed a grounding rod. He's super talented, knowledgeable, friendly, punctional, reliable, wears his protective mask, and he's also affordable. We've used his services so much, he feels like a member of the family!

Peter did a super job of finding the problem and correcting it. He had to trace it through a number of rooms until he located the source. He arrived when he said he would, wore his mask the entire time he was here and the fee he charged was more than reasonable. If you need an electrician, look no farther than Mr. Wrate.

Peters service was great and reliable! He came highly recommended thru a friend and he is definitely top notch in his work. Thank you Peter!
