Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This company is amazing! From the very first encounter with Susan when you call you feel you're in good hands! Brian came out to troubleshoot our problem and even talked to Dominion to explain our issue. There's no sales pressure and Brian and Jeremy worked their magic within two hours, cleaned up and showed me everything along the way. I highly recommend this company for any electrical needs, you won't regret it!

He came to look at our wiring and gave some great advice that made me feel comfortable with our setup, without pushing any unnecessary costs. He also took the extra time to answer a few other questions I had as a new homeowner. He was super informative and kind.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a great experience. We needed an electrician asap and was having a difficult time finding one who could come out quickly. They were able to rearrange their schedule and get someone out asap to help fix our breaker for our heat and i’m very thankful.
