"Called them on a Sunday when our panel was tripping every 30 minutes. Someone answered immediately and had a crew at our house within two hours. Replaced the breaker, explained everything, fair price. Exactly what you want in an electrician."

"Had them wire our new garage addition — 240V outlet for the welder plus a Level 2 EV charger. Showed up when they said, passed inspection first try, cleaned up after. Would absolutely use again and have already recommended them to neighbors."
