Recommended Customer Reviews

I had a circuit breaker and an oven go out and they were able to come out that same day, diagnose the situation and give me their honest opinion. Which I really appreciated. I able to get both parts installed that same without a wait. Great quick, friendly professional service!

Local Electrician did an exceptional job. They fixed an indoor issue I had with a light switch. Afterwards, they gave me a quote on a new fuse box (we desperately needed one) and I accepted since they were the lowest I've gotten. The next week, they changed the fuse box and goose neck and now we don't have to worry about our breakers failing to trip. Thanks again!! I highly recommend their work.

I was happy with the work they did fixing my wiring issues, which took problem solving and they were great at that. Also installed ceiling fixtures with remotes and dimmer switches that are really smart and cool. Not the cheapest, but they were experienced, knowledgeable, solved my issues, and made sure I was satisfied.

Matthew was very responsive, showed up when he said he would, assessed the problem, clearly communicated the repair details, obtained the parts, and did the repairs...all within a few hours. I had an unrelated a.c. concern after he left and he happily returned to check it out and do a reset on the air conditioner.
Excellent job and excellent communication! Highly recommend!

Matthew and joe were great. Showed up on time, wore a mask the whole time and wrapped everything up quick. Will definitely use them for any future needs.

I love leaving great 5 Star reviews and Sean and a local electrician definitely deserves one. He is truly an honest guy very easy to work with. They showed up on time, is very clean and respectful and their work is impeccable. Plus he was cheaper than everyone else I called. If you need any electrical work done residential or commercial give Sean a call you won't be disappointed.

Matthew explained what our best options were and how much it would cost us making it our choice whether we wanted to fix what was needed or everything that needed to be done. I thought that was a great option for us. We liked the way they worked, their honesty and courtesy. I will hire them again, actually, perhaps next week if they have an opening, to install my husband's father's gift--an outdoor (porch) ceiling fan. We had the option of going with Lowe's, but trust Matthew more! I recommend this company.

Highly recommend this company. These guys are trustworthy and do quality work for a fair price. Matthew was very responsive to all my phone calls and went above and beyond to make sure all work was done properly. My days of searching Craigslist for electricians are over. 5 stars

I can't say enough good things about these guys!. I had 3 different electric companies come to my house to give me a price estimate for the light fixtures I needed to install. The first was one of the big companies and they basically told me that I had to break the bank and get new everything, that my house was on the verge of getting set on fire by Lightning and surges. I'm a new home owner and don't know much about these things so after that scare (and the super high price) I decided to do my research and look into some good family run smaller businesses that may be a little more honest with me regarding the work that needed to be done and the installation of my lights. Someone more consumer oriented. I found two really good companies, one of them was Matthew Arnold, the owner of the local electrician who personally greeted me and was really honest and friendly. He made me feel much more at ease and told me that I was not in danger but only needed a few things updated to be safe at home. He also gave me a good price for the installation of the fixtures and answered all my questions and concerns. He and his college Lee were here yesterday and they were very good! Efficient and friendly!. I'm very happy about my choice and I'm sure that if anything should go wrong I'll have an honest and hard working professional to turn to!. Thank you Matthew!

Sean was excellent in giving us a prompt quote for repairs from inspection report. He gave reasonable expect advice and was very real and honest with recommendation unlike other Electrical companies who just want to upsell you on every service. We did not hire yet but just the process and communication and short notice response on our estimate was fantastic. Will def use when ready.
