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.

Installed recessed lights in two bedrooms—very happy with both the results and the process. The team was professional, efficient, and easy to work with. They also gave me quick, helpful, and actionable recommendations on how to fix or replace the small lights in other rooms. I’ll definitely be reaching out again for future projects!

It was a pleasure working with Richard. He took his career seriously and made sure his customer was satisfy with his service. I wanted to have a bathroom fan and he went out of his way to send me various fans. He even stopped by home depot to pick up additional items for the extra outlet and extra bathroom light I wanted.
