Our power went out in the kitchen last night and I called many places, they all told me they had to change out so many things. I saw Walts electric on Yelp and decided to give him a call, he was so busy but still find time to come out and helped us out. I really thought it would be an arm and a leg but he was sooooo nice and reasonable !!!!! I highly recommend Walts electric !!! He will give you great advices on what needs to be done. I appreciate you for making the drive out here walts!!!!

I called Walt because on one side of my kitchen the outlets weren't working. He was punctual and friendly. As it turned out, the only thing wrong was a tripped circuit breaker!! :) So, embarrassed because I thought I had tried that already. He didn't charge me anything for coming out!

In retrospect, I wish I had at least offered to buy him a sandwich... However, I hope this positive review will bring him some business! I know if I ever need electrical services I will definitely call Walt!!

3-12-20 Walt was referred to me from a neighbor on Nextdoor who had used him previously. I really hit the jackpot, because he is an amazing electrician. Not only did he patch holes when he installed new ceiling fans and ran in-wall wiring, but he also checked everything to make sure all electrical was in good working order.

I had another tenant move out and when I entered there were no lights working. It appeared that the breakers were tripped so when I tried to reset them, they sparked and wouldn't go on.

I immediately called Walt on a Saturday and he immediately came out and helped me since it was an emergency, even tho he was busy on another job. While he was there he also checked all of the electrical to make sure there were no issues and secured the bad outlet until he could replace it.

He will be installing ceiling fans and bathroom exhaust fans also and adding new switches and outlets. His work his impeccable and his customer service is the best!! Thank you Walt....you deserve all the kudos you get! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Had a really great experience with Walt looking for the cause of a circuit fault I was getting. Was on time to the early morning appointment we had set up. And even before he came over, he was very helpful by telling me different things over the phone that I can check to try and find the cause myself. I am glad I found him through word of mouth in our neighborhood, and would not hesitate recommending him to others and calling him back for future electrical needs. Thanks, Walt!

I needed few outlets and light fixtures installed in my backyard asap. I contacted several electricians for the same. Most of them were booked months ahead and were super pricey. Some of them never bothered to give me an estimate after the walkthrough and after following up several times. I found Walt through Yelp and he came the very same day that I contacted him for a walkthrough and gave me an estimate immediately. He was also able to come in for the actual work the same week. He was extremely reasonable, punctual and did an awesome job. He also came in on the weekend to install an additional light fixture which we decided to add in last minute. I will definitely be calling him for any electrical work in the future. I highly recommend Walt!

I lucked out!

I found Walt on Yelp. I just did a near me electrician search. Made contact with a few. I need to replace all light fixtures in home. I had purchased fixtures, including low-profile recessed lights and a switch. Walt was only one who did actual walk-through before quote. He had best price and came on a weekend! This man rocks. He replaced all lights (10 of varying types) and put a motor in non-working bathroom fan. He left everything immaculate. I am so fortunate and happy to have found such a professional, considerate electrician has Walt.

I was really pleased with Walt's service. I've been trying to get some recessed lights wired, and some electrical repairs done in our attic for over a month - a lot of local electricians had very high prices, or were flaky. Not only did Walt perform all the work on a Sunday for a fair price, he also gave a lot of professional advice on things the previous owner of the house did wrong, and helped me fix something on the roof. I would not hesitate to call him again.

I spent two weeks planning and putting together a game room for my step son before his visit and a week before arrival the power blew out in the room. I contacted Walt and get made time to come the next day and fixed the issue within an hour. He did a great job and saved the day for us!

I needed 2 ceiling fans to be installed in my house asap... called Walt Wednesday, came over Thursday to take a look, he gave me a fair reasonable price, and next thing you know installed Saturday morning as promised. I could not be any more happier with Walt's work, will definitely be calling him for anything electrical going forward. Thanks Walt
