Richard was very responsive and easy to work with. It was clear from the start that he has a lot of experience since he quickly identified an issue with our dryer plug and explained what needed to be fixed. He even kept things light with some funny dad jokes that my husband and I appreciated! We needed to add new outlets and upgrade some to GFCI, and he completed everything quickly and exactly within the timeline he quoted. I would definitely recommend him and will continue to reach out for any future electrical needs.

Richard came out on a Sunday when our induction stove’s junction box was smoking and filling the house with terrible smell. He showed up on time, quickly diagnosed the issue (resistance in the wiring), and had everything fixed within an hour. On top on of being skilled, Richard was easygoing and genuinely funny, which helped a lot when we were stressed about this electrical issue. Great communication throughout. Highly recommend.

I hired Richard to install flood light over my garage. He came on time and resolved few other issues with my garage lights. He spent good time to install flood light appropriately and did a very good job. I highly recommend him for electrical work.

I was very happy with Richard and wouldn’t hesitate to hire him again for any electrical needs. He knocked out a bunch of small projects for me in a day and was very respectful, professional and easy to work with
