Highly recommend!!! Our experience with Max Electric was great! They navigated and carried us through a complex rewiring of our building (knob & tube) where we had to move out for 6 weeks. They managed the project between each of the units and their owners (us being one), and with the City. Their pricing was very…

Max Electric crew was very professional and did an excellent job. Lucas and his team ( Camilo, Pedro and Noah) were great and the EV charger installation including the wiring/ conduit was very thorough and clean. Lucas also handled the city inspection and got that done the very next day. Thank you!

The max team did some exterior rewiring in our 1920s condo building. They were incredibly professional, efficient and commanded a depth of expertise in their craft. While they weren’t the most cost effective compared with other reputable electricians, I’d work with them again.

The estimate was prompt and extremely competitive. The work was scheduled quickly. Lucas showed up right on time, did all the work quickly, and was really pleasant to work with. I didn’t catch the name of his assistant, who was also excellent. All in all, I was impressed and really happy with the results. Would not hesitate to call again.
