Lightning Bug, in general, and my specialist in particular, Christian, were easy to work with, very knowledgeable and extremely professional. Would recommend and use again.
Dear Lightning Bug Electric Team, I am writing to share my positive feedback regarding the service provided by Chris W. and his apprentice. Chris demonstrated exceptional professionalism, honesty, and dedication to high-quality work. He addressed my questions directly and showed thorough care in all aspects of the…
Very pleasant experience. They came and did the work, ran into a few surprises with the way the house already existed, but deftly worked around those to finish the job nicely.
Quick to respond to my request. Provided an on-site, detailed, free estimate of the work to be completed. Excellent communication throughout the process. If you want your project done right the first time, I recommend using LBE.
I had fun today swapping out the old wall oven that quit working. Getting the old oven out of there by myself was the biggest challenge because that oven was heavy. I also had to do a little bit of carpentry work to reduce the size of the opening so the new oven wouldn't be sliding around once it was installed.…
Lightning bug did great work and were wonderful at communicating! Updating to add: Steve was awesome to work with! They came to fix a light fixture that had come loose, and left everything 5x better than they found it. Very competent, knowledgeable, and kind.
I had some electrical work done at my home and Leo & Eddie were the fantastic technicians who did the work. I appreciate their professionalism and their knowledge. They were great to work with and a tremendous help in getting my two electrical projects completed and at a good price. Thanks much!
I've used LIghtning Bug several times for a wide variety of issues and upgrades with our 1960s home and they've been great! Griffen and Christian were standouts for their knowledge, skill, and professionalism plus a true get-it-done mentality. Cody was also great in proposing options with solutions that wouldn't…
Cody and Chris are both wonderful! They told me what was needed and they did it! It’s so refreshing to not have to deal with poor communication and misrepresentation between the estimate and the final bill. In the future, I will definitely be a repeat customer! Happy customer! -June Brown
I have used LBE multiple times now. I originally picked them for their competitive pricing and great reviews. I waited to post a review until I had a few experiences with them. They (Christian & Kristian) updated the electrical panel for my whole house, which was a big job, and I also had some smaller jobs done by…
So very pleasant and helpful. Very professional. Went above and beyond. I will definitely use them again.
Very friendly, professional, informative installer. Steve is always great.
Dawn and Jeremy were great. They came in and knocked the job out in a few hours when It was originally scheduled to take 3days. Looking forward to them coming back and doing my living room and dining room
We had three gentlemen (Steven Griffin and Brandon) work on our project to do wiring and install ceiling lights in basement. they provided good guidance, did good quality and timely work. We have used their services second time and are very satisfied with their services.
The team from LBE was amazing. I'm a former contractor. It's great to see real professional tradesmen that hold themselves and the quality of their work to higher standards than even those required by code. They upgraded the service and rewired my 1962 model home which I knew was not going to be an easy project.…
Service technician Steve and Griffin was very personal and conscientious about the work and the satisfaction of this customer.
Great experience. Friendly, knowledgeable, and let me pay on a credit card without an extra fee. Cale was great!
Cody and Mac (michael) did a great job on our landscape lighting and security lights and were very thorough and professional. They worked through the rain and humidity. We plan to use them for future work!
Scott and Kevin replaced my bathroom ventilation fan in less than 15 minutes. They were professional and knew their job very well. Thank you, Giti Bayhaghi
I've been using Lightning Bug for all of my electrical needs since 2016, when I lived in Dunwoody. They've always gone above and beyond, Bobby and James and Josh in particular, even coming out when I moved to Lilburn before it was technically part of their service area! Most recently they did a bunch of work on my…
Dakota C. has come by twice in the last two weeks for separate issues. He quickly found the cause of both problems, explained and recommended solutions in a friendly, professional way, and fixed it all. He was willing and eager to answer all our questions and went out of his way to explain ways to avoid the same…
They did a great job
Service person (Dakota) was top notch. On time, friendly, knowledgeable, and was very informative. Answered all questions, made suggestions and explained how the work would be done. Everything went well and would definitely recommend and use again.
Excellent service. Quality technicians Jeremy and Chris
My experience today and yesterday with their technician, Sam, was very pleasant. He was punctual, worked efficiently and overall just did a tremendous job for us. Hats off to Sam for a job well done!
I highly recommend Lighting Bug Electric! They were very professional, and easy to communicate and schedule a visit. The professional who came for my inspection was Dakota, he was wonderful! Very knowledgeable and thorough in his work, he took the time to show me and explain to me what the issues are and what it…
Cody was wonderful. He explained and communicated everything that he was doing. He worked around my work at home schedule. I appreciate how both Cody and Brandon were professional and efficient! It was a great experience. Edit to add: Cody returned to add two additional lights and he and Griffin said they would be…
Steven V. was awesome to work with! We had used him before and it was such a good experience we decided to call him again to hard wire our TV and replace a light fixture. We highly recommend using him and The Lightning Bug.
Great experience overall - and impressed with the professionalism and knowledge of our tech, Steven. We would definitely use Lightning Bug again and recommend them to others.
Amazing and couldnt have asked for a better electrician for all of our needs.
I want to commend the entire team, consisting of Leo, Cale, Scuba, Orlando, Jordan, and Rigo; for exemplary customer service. I will definitely refer this company to my family and coworkers. This team was professional, knowledgeable, and exceeded my expectations.
I highly recommend lightening bug. My electrician was Scott. He was very professional and accommodating. He did excellent work and went above and beyond to complete my project.
Steven from LBE was so helpful, and because of him, I feel more confident and educated about my electrical system. He listened, answered every question, never once pressured me, worked hard all day, and was the best I've ever had, explaining the problem, cost, building codes, how to prevent future issues, and my…
Lightning Bug performed the electrical work for my finished basement project and I cannot express how pleased I am with their work. It was a large project (870 sq ft from stud framing) and there were a few changes along the way. Coleman, the master electrician, was very communicative throughout the project, asked…
We have used Lightning Bug Electric on five separate occasions for electrical repairs and/or additions. They are very professional, friendly, prompt, and charge fair prices. Steven was our service tech on this visit and he is wonderful and very good at his trade....Thank you!
Jeremy has installed fixtures for me at two different homes. He is a professional asset to his company and a great guy. as well.
I've used LB for several repair and improvement projects over the last couple of years. They have always been prompt and professional. Recently Dakota helped me out. He did excellent work.
Excellent work. Agreeable technician.
