Just spoke to Ricky, and he has to be one of the most professional, polite, and honest contractors I have had the pleasure of speaking to; in fact, he explained why I didn't actually need the service for which I was calling! I really appreciate his style and honesty. I will certainly call him when I actually do need help!

I had an issue with a possible circuit blowing after I bought an electric car and tried charging it at home. Even though it was late in the day, Ricky responded within minutes, came over that same evening and fixed the problem for me on the spot. He was very professional and honest, and I would recommend him to anyone looking for an electrician, without hesitation.

Ricky was very responsive, on time, and professional. He was very knowledgeable about the recessed wafer lights we wanted throughout the house. He knew city code requirements and easily passed the inspections for our permit. Ricky is a one-man operation and completed every electrical item on our punch list. He tried his best to make minimal cuts into the ceilings to minimize drywall repair. Ricky was very neat and tidy and wore shoe covers inside the house. He used third hands to build a floor to ceiling tent with plastic sheeting around himself anytime he cut into our ceilings to keep the drywall dust from flying all over. He used a HEPA fan to suck the loose drywall dust and also vacuumed. We highly recommend Ricky and he will be our first call anytime we need electrical work in the future.

Was impressed by the reviews and quick response. Ricky was on time for the assessment appointment. He was very professional and said he'd get back with a quote that evening. Well, no quote and no response thereafter, so only one star here.

Richard is the BEST!! He fixed a recessed light that two other electricians could not fix. He is now helping me with a temporary 220v outlet. He is prompt to reply, timely and charges a fair price. You can't go wrong if you choose Richard for your electical work. I am glad I found him.

Ricky did an awesome job! Even though it was the end of the day, he was quick to respond to our request and came over within 15 minutes. He quickly diagnosed our lighting problem and fixed it immediately.
We were so happy with his knowledge, great communication and friendliness.
He takes pride in his work and it shows!
We will call Ricky for future electrical needs.

Ricky was very professional in his approach to our problem. We had a forty year old panel and was arcing. This led to power being cut off for a day. Our request was not only for restoration of power but also to upgrade service to 200A. Ricky managed to complete a service upgrade to new panel 200A within a day. It was a challenging project since it involved a lot of work and co ordination with city and utilities. He stayed at our place from morning till evening 9pm to make sure we had power for the night. I'll hire him again for future projects.

Excellent! I highly recommend Sherman Electric. He responded quickly to a request for an estimate, then was able to schedule pretty soon after. He really went above and beyond expectations. Very professional!

Ricky did an excellent job with the wiring for a set of new appliances, including an oven, microwave, cooktop and warming drawer. For the oven, he took it upon himself to call the manufacturer to make sure he got the electrical box in the right location. As it turned out, they still gave him the wrong information, but he figured out a way to get it where it needed to go and moved it there quickly, nicely patching up the wall he needed to get behind. On the day before the ovens were to be installed (literally the day before Thanksgiving!) we discovered that one junction box was protruding too much (by less than 1/2""), which would have prevented the oven from going in. I called Ricky in a panic and he happily offered to come that evening; he did and took care of the problem in about 5 minutes. I highly recommend this guy!

It took less then 30min from my call for Ricky to arrive! My job was small (fish wire a few wires to n new location) and Ricky quoted me a fair price. It took Ricky a bit longer than we expected but he stood by his price. He made sure to maintain the work location clean and didn't complain when I stood by and watched him work the whole time :)

I'll call him again for my next job.
