What customers said about outdoor lighting installation
Jay did an incredible job. Was professional, on time and polite. Pricing was great. I’m very happy with KJ Electric!
This project was completed to my satisfaction in a professional manner . The electrician, did a superb job. I highly recommend Jireh electrical. Ruben Sandoval
They were great. Came out in three days gave me an estimate and work was done in 2 1/2 hours. We installed two electric outdoor outlets under the Soffit and switched a non working timer to a manual switch instead. I will use them again for installing lights illuminating several trees. Best price out of three electricians.
Tony is very knowledgeable and professional. Installation of a backup generator, cameras, lights, switches, timers, and replacement of the electrical panel went very well and as promised. I highly recommend Tony and Hunter for your electrical and HVAC needs.
Awesome quality work and very patient. Being that we has a CPS situation that lingered our installation a lot longer than anticipated, they stayed in contact with me for it all and finally when completed they were very helpful. I will continue to use them when needed in the future. Always recommended!! Thank you…
David and Pedro from Mr. Electric were absolutely amazing! They installed recessed lighting in my hallway, kitchen, and living room, added a ceiling fan, fixed a nonworking light in my utility room, and replaced both interior and exterior breaker panels to bring my home up to code. They were professional, friendly,…
