We were extremely pleased with the results of the work done. Everything turned out better than we expected. The Local Electricians is the only electrical company we will ever use.

The Local Electrician did an excellent job after my home was hit by lightning in June. Sean and his crew were very professional, well organized, and respectful of my property.

(The tech said his name was ANDY, not Matthew or Sean.) Andy arrived in the time window that was specified. He was very professional, friendly, easy-going, patient, and knowledgeable. It was a very big job to replace 5 GFCI and 20 non-GFCI outlets, with 14 requiring waterproof bubble boxes. He also replaced 5…

They were ready to do the job the next day - we had to have all our smoke detectors replaced due to age and have one installed in a bedroom we made from a children's den.…

Sean was very open and approachable and listened to what my electrical needs were. He displayed a good working knowledge of his profession and the company. I will use Local Electrician again because of Sean.

Joe and Edgar were absolutely excellent in caring for my house’s needs. We have aluminum wiring and were told by another company to just “sell our house” or pay $20,000 to rewire!
