Southern Cross Electric

Grant and his Southern Cross guys (esp. Seymour) have come out several times, often on short notice, and problem solved and resolved whatever issue I have. One time there was an odd short after they had been in, and they came back out promptly and made it right at no cost. Another time, when I had sent them a check with a different address, Grant called to be sure it was a good check - that's a major character issue in my book. Highly recommend.

Solid work, scheduled and completed in a timely manner with a great crew.

I can't tell you enough how much I like these guys. They have done work at my house several times, including changing out every outdoor fixture, and several indoors, too. Additionally, they put in an electric box at my pond outside and a pole lantern. I have had a little trouble with the box at my pond, but every time I call Grant or Seymour, they take good care of us. (The heavy rains recently have caused a lot of problems (not caused by SCE) They're hard to get in touch with at times, but you have to keep in mind that many people that own their own business do it with a cell phone, and at times they are in the middle of work. They are hard working, and I realize that for good help, sometimes I'm not the first in line. I am a Realtor, and I recommend them to my clients, and will use them every time I need work done at my own crib. They're awesome!!

All I can say is good luck getting ahold of anybody at this outfit. Three phone calls over three days with messages left and not only does nobody ever answer but there is not even so much as the courtesy of a returned call. They must be really busy spreading Vegemite on their bickies or something.

Grant and his crew at Southern Cross were awesome to work with. I had to get two circuit panels replaced before selling a house. They were prompt, pulled all the necessary permits and scheduled everything with the city. Weeks later, when our buyer's inspector said that the breaker was not the right voltage for the line (or something, I'm no electrician) they came out the very next day and took care of it. Apparently it was nothing unsafe, just a code issue that he was being particular about. Either way, they resolved the problem very quickly. Will definitely use them next time I have electrical issues.

It's been almost 5 years since they did a small job for me and I am still angry every time I see the thoughtless work they did. And I'm a neighbor for heaven's sake! I still have a light switch that is still not completely flush to the wall and the box is probably a little too big, but they didn't bother to get one that fit. Argh! Also, they installed a switch for me from the garage and just left everything in shambles and refused to come and at least put back what they had torn down or neaten up anything. No attention to detail. And just plain surly. Boo on them.

Very professional guys. Efficient and clean. Polite and easy to have in your home. Great prices, too!!

We are doing adding a kitchen at our business and needed to upgrade the electrical panel. Made several calls to get bids from local electrical companies, but Grant with Southern Cross was the only one that got back to us immediately & gave us a timely estimate. They have been great to work with and his staff is definitely a step above your average electrician. Thanks Grant!

Hope there wasn't a horrible car crash or anything but I left work early to be at the house at the time Grant said worked best for him and he never showed and never called. At a rate of $95/hr and a town full of competitors, that simply will not do. Professional rates for unprofessional service. Somebody owes me two hours. Sorry Mate!

My husband and I bought a house that had been flipped, and since then had a remodel done by a less-than-precise contractor. Needless to say, we regularly discover electrical issues. I don't know about you, but electrical issues are some of the least-fun issues to have. I heard rave reviews from a friend about Grant and the rest of the guys at Southern Cross, and have used them for our last two bouts of issues. I am so so so so pleased. Honestly I have never found a service provider of any kind whose work I am so confident in, who explains things so clearly, *and* who is pleasant to work with. In regards to the other review, the first service call took a few days, but I called Grant this morning for our latest issue (involving our HVAC system) and he showed up just a few hours later. Good on ya, Southern Cross Electric!
