Brian and his helper did an incredible job of replacing all of outdoor lighting fixtures, adding a ring doorbell and installing a Lutron Casetta Smart Home Hub and several smart switches and outlets. We couldn’t be happier with the work, and would recommend Brian with Moonlight Electric to anyone looking for value and quality!

Thanks a bunch Dave! It was a pleasure working with you! The new fan looks great and operates beautifully! Gannon did an excellent job securing the fan to prevent any ‘wobble’ with the long down-rod. 👍💪

From the start communication with Moonlight was clear and explained the details of our EV charger install in easy to understand terms. The install went great and we were pleased with their work. While working the electrician found two unrelated items of concern from previous electrical work and fixed them on the spot. We plan on using moonlight for any electrical work needed in the future

Response from the owner · 3 months ago

Thank you, Sean. We’re glad our clear communication and EV charger installation met your expectations, and that our electrician could address those unrelated issues on the spot. We appreciate your trust and look forward to being your go-to for any future electrical work.

Brian is top notch. He's a small business with low overhead so can charge very fair prices. I found him extremely knowledgeable in terms of adhering to the electrical code and very willing to work with the homeowner on options to lower cost. Got my EV charger up an running in a couple of hours.

Response from the owner · Edited 5 months ago

Thanks so much, Paul — I appreciate the kind words. I’m glad I could get your EVSE installed quickly, stay within code, and help find cost-saving options. It means a lot that you noticed the value of working with a small, low-overhead business. If you need anything else, I’m happy to help!
