We have used Lightning Bug Electric for four different projects over the last several years. The entire operation is fantastic.

Quick friendly amazing service. Explained every thing they were doing clearly and showed us repairs when finished. Affordable pricing and great people all around.
I've been using Lighting Bug for over 20 years. Excellent service and prompt arrival at a fair price. You can't go wrong here!
Today was the best service by any contractor at our home ! Daniel was timely, thorough, knowledgeable and completely professional. He handled tranformer, landscape lighting, floodlight, new bathroom fixtures, etc. He was tireless. He is the best ambassador for your brand. We even joined your membership service…
Lightning Bug is great. Their quote was 35% of a competitor. Their work was thorough and they really went the extra mile. They offered some optional upgrades with a true soft sale tact that I appreciated. They showed me what everything would cost even as we changed the plan as we went. The entire process was great.…
Exceeding pleased with the service they provided. The purpose of the trip was to replace flood lights. When I asked for a light with a greater coverage and more lumens than the ones they were installing, they found and purchased four different lights to satisfy my request. That is the type of service we all hope…
Amazing service. Made a call Thursday and the electrician was at my home the next morning. Justin was very knowledgeable and professional. Highly recommend this company.
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…
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.
He was kind. He was upfront about costs. I appreciated him explaining, upfront, about where costs might vary.
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 have used Lightening Bug Electric for various projects since purchasing our home 7 years ago. Their service has always been high quality and the technicians extremely professional. The most recent service call was a shining example of this. We did basement remodel and put in a shiplap accent wall; however, the…
Excellent job! Very responsive and thorough. Arrived promptly and went right to work. Explained very thoroughly everything they were doing and made suggestions for improvements. Extremely professional and efficient. Cost was a good value for the level of work performed.
Technician was awesome! Give him a raise, he deserves it!
we are very pleased with the service we recieved from Leo. Leo is very professional, nice and easy to talk to, he completed everything we needed help with, and offered some recommendations.
Since day one Lightning Bug Electric has shown to deliver excellent service but Justin has gone above and beyond to meet my needs and make me feel that I had made the right choice when I picked them to work on my new home addition. Thank you Justin.
Justin is personable, reliable, knowledgeable and very easy to talk to and be around!
Steven came by for a free estimate for installing our Ring doorbell and security camera. (They don’t seem to give an estimate on the phone, which I think makes sense.) The estimate seemed reasonable so we gave the OK for the installation right away. Steven was professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. He even…
We had a great experience with Lightning Bug. Everyone was very polite and professional and did a great job!
I found this company by using listing on BBB and they are so responsive as I send request for appointment on the weekend and they continued to contact throughout the weekend to get an appointment that would work for me - I really like how they continue to check on you with appointment and they also contacted you if…
I've been putting off known electrical issues for way too long. Called Lightning Bug this morning, thinking I'd have to wait for service but the tech was able to come right away. He fixed my immediate problems, explained in detail the bigger issue, and was able to schedule that repair the same week. I am very…
I chose Lightning Bug again because I wanted a licensed Electrician. Steven, the Electrician, installed the lighting over my garage is reliable, trustworthy and punctual. He took pride in the quality of his work and customer service. Steven committed the highest standards of electrical safety and protocol. I am…
We bought a home that had major renovation prior to 1997. We hired Lightening Bug to restore connection to a flood light and install an additional gfi outlet to the exterior of our home. Our electrician James discovered several major non code deficiencies in the previous construction. He showed us evidence of the…
Guys were professional and knowledgeable regarding work requirements. Performed work while taking care not to disturb any other areas of the home
Matt was fantastic and did an incredible job!
Right out the gate Tim was easy to work with and based off other quotes we had received, he shot us straight! Sam and Justin were extremely hard workers they showed up on time and worked very diligently, our job was done in two days. They replaced our panel with a surge protector, upgraded several light switches and…
Sam does great work. Very professional. No surprises. Very high quality
Steven and Tito did an amazing job! Would highly recommend!
I called Lightning Bug Electric to repair three outlets, install three additional outlets, and wire in a new floodlight. While here the technicians were professional, courteous, and very thorough. Their prices were fair and their service was excellent. I wholeheartedly recommend them and will certainly call them first if I ever need their services again.
Bobby who led the project initially provided a very accurate estimate for the work by listening carefully, thoroughly answering questions and promptly following up after the first visit. The office made the day of installation go smoothly by sending out notices and making confirmations calls. The crew was on time…
Very knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. Took the time to explain their service, make recommendations, and they provide us options too choose from. We will be using them again for future electrical work.
