Taylor was professional, as always. The job was completed in a timely manner. He explained what work would be accomplished . He briefed me on the work when it was accomplished. Lightning Bug Electric is our “go-to” company for our electrical needs.
Gabrielle and Griffin were very professional and great communicators.
Aaron (and Braeden) did a spectacular job replacing my electrical panel, breakers and running a new circuit. After initial inspection, he gave multiple levels of options to fix my problem, and explained each well. I felt I got the upgrades I needed to be safe and up to code while not overspending. He was thorough…
Electrician was very professional.
We called Lightning Bug to bring our daughter’s new home up to date. There were many issues left by the previous owners. I asked for Steve, who had worked on my house. Steve did an excellent job. He and his helper Cairo did a thorough inspection. He made recommendations, and we chose a whole house upgrade. Steve…
Thank you to the Lighting Bug team for coming onsite and going the extra mile to get the project completed. Leo and Eddie, you are both amazing workers. Really enjoyed the positive attitude that you both brought to make this tedious project enjoyable and fun.
Lightening Bug Electric came to do a multitude of jobs at my home. The rates are extremely reasonable. Steven and Hunter were great! They were so professional, knowledgeable and courteous. I can’t say enough about them. I will definitely recommend this company!
The workers were professional and updated us the progress of the work. Work was completed as promised. I was pleased with the service provided.
Are you kidding, this is the first time I had anyone work on my house and these guys were so professional, quick and hard working. Easily the best money I have ever spent. Thanks Griffen and Jamal.
Steve literally saved my house from burning down! I bought a house two months ago and my inspector did a horrible job. I had to have my whole house re-piped and the plumbers noticed the electrical wasn’t up to code. Steve jumped right on it and immediately found a breaker that was burning. He changed out my…
We recently engaged several companies to get some quotes for some long overdue work, and Lightning Bug was fantastic to work with. Bryson came out took a look at things, and was able to explain in clear terms what he felt would be best, and why. He walked us through what to expect the 'day of' so we were well…
Finally a service business that treats you well! This company has the friendliest technicians I've ever been in contact with! They keep you up to date with anything that happens with your services and are always honest about exactly what you need to get you a fair price. I've never had a bad technician; they're so…
There are many choices to select from when it comes to hiring a company to help with electrical work, however there’s only one that I’ve found that provides a memorable experience, Lightning Bug Electric! The entire team at Lightning Bug Electric is always helpful from the initial call to after the job, however our…
Jeremiah and Don were very friendly, helpful and thorough. They were conscientious and seemed genuinely concerned about our safety.. Their work was already tested by a lightening strike which resulted in no electrical damage.
Best electric company I've had the pleasure of using. They were fast,efficient, patient, and willing to work with my budget. Will be using them for all projects going forward for sure.
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 Dakota is a highly skilled and personable professional
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…
Steven was great. He inspected, talked with us about the problem(s) and explained carefully. He was ready to do the work. We are happy we went with Lightning bug.
Excellent work. Fast and professional
