Company Overview

I have been operating a side venture while working full-time as an electrician for an electrical firm. I’ve just initiated this venture and am dedicated to creating a trustworthy reputation. I earned my certification and master electrical license back in 2012.

Since I was 16, I have aspired to be an electrician. Having a family of electricians and painters, I decided to pursue the electrical field. It pays more...LOL.

For the past 20 years, I have worked for an electrical company and recently decided to go independent to create a business that supports my family. Being self-employed allows me to guarantee excellent customer service and high-quality work.

Establishing a reputation is crucial to me. This is my livelihood. That’s why I can personally assure you of the best service available. Not only will you receive excellent service, but you will also enjoy quality workmanship.

I’ve tackled a wide range of electrical jobs, from repairs to troubleshooting in both commercial and residential environments. I can manage new electrical installations, from simple outlet setups to panel upgrades and car chargers. Whatever the electrical need, I can take care of it.

I assure you, you will not be let down.

I appreciate your consideration.
Eric Carnes

Never filed for the permits he was required to pull for electrical job. Refuses to provide us with receipts. Discourteous banter after the fact whilst attempting to obtain said receipts and get him to finish the job he was paid for.

We hired Flash Electric to repair a lot of electrical items on our home inspection list (Install GFCI's, Install fan and lights, alarm system keypads, etc.) Eric was extremely responsive, professional, knowledgeable and his pricing was fair. Highly recommend Flash Electric and I will definitely call again.

Excellent service. Very knowledgeable. Very reasonable. Same day service!
Eric asked for details about the electrical problem so that he could plan his time. When he came he had his face mask on, which was most appreciated. Next, he had all the right tools to detect active current flow. He went over and beyond by fixing wiring done previously.
Thank you, Eric.

Eric Carnes came to our house on a Sunday and installed a GFI outlet on the outside of our home for our pool. He also installed two hanging lights for us...one in the foyer, another in the dining room. He was awesome. Very affordable and a great guy. We highly recommend him.

Highly recommend Eric and Flash Electric! He's extremely responsive, returns calls or texts almost immediately. When I first called to get him to tie my new shed into my house's power, he was out there two days later checking things out and getting me an estimate. I was pleasantly surprised to see how reasonable the quote was (esp because we just had some AC work done by another company recently and am pretty sure we got seriously gouged). We set a work date and he showed up when he said he would, got the entire project finished in a few hours. Will be using him for all my electrician needs in the coming years. Great guy, quality work, cleans up after himself, and shoots straight with you on price/timing of work/etc. Thanks Eric!

Eric was friendly, timely and efficient! He hung a light fixture in my dining room as well as one in the bathroom. Highly recommend!!

Eric was not only super friendly, but he came out and installed on a weekend and did a fantastic job. He worked with me to create solutions and ultimately installed an electric outlet underneath our sink so that we could install a garbage disposal. I couldn't have asked for more! I 100% recommend Eric!

I just purchased a farm in Athens that has an older barn with 50 year old wiring. My electrical panel was buzzing. Eric came out quickly, identified the problem and provided immediate relief along with a reasonable proposal to upgrade. He was thorough, cost sensitive, and quick to respond. He completed the work on Saturday. It looks amazing! He replaced, rewired, installed switches so we wouldn't have to use the breaker box and got it done and cleaned up quickly. I have other work I'm asking for proposals for. Highly recommend!!!!

I have used Eric at ""The Flash Electric"" on numerous occasions for electrical needs at my home. He's installed outdoor security cameras, RING Doorbell, exterior and interior outlets, recessed lighting, added extra garage lighting, home theater curtain specialty switch, and even installed a special outlet for a high end TOTO Japanese automatic bidet toilet. Soon he will be installing exterior in-ground lighting for the American Flagpole I'm having installed in my yard. He's always professional and courteous and provides fair and upfront pricing. The quality of work is top notch. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Eric and ""The Flash Electric!""

We were looking for electric installment because we wanted to insert a garbage disposal. Not only was he extremely friendly and accommodating, he helped us same-day, and offered us multiple times! When we had an earlier time open, he even accommodated and came out earlier to help us. Super friendly, great work. Did exactly what we asked and explained things to us. Will definitely be using this company again!
