I called in the morning and Sam came same day. He was absolutely amazing, upfront about the cost after having a look inside and outside. He was super patient with us as we talked about our power problem and was able to fix it the same day.
Sam explained everything he done and changes, and even checked our kettle to make sure everything was ok!
Thank you so much Sam!

Very professional, and great communication skills. This is the second job I have had them do at my house, they explain everything and if there is an issue of where something has to be placed, it is explained and a outcome is decided between both parties. The don’t just go ahead without discussing it first. This is really important to me. I highly recommend to anybody that needs electrical work done with a company that cares about their customers and puts their customers first.
