I'm new to TT so this was my 1ST impression of the platform... and it went very well. I had a faulty Light switch that the electrician quickly diagnosed, acquired the parts in a timely manner and then repaired the flickering light switch. Thank you for a service call well done!

He came and installed the outlet. We tested it worked. The craftsmanship looks like it was there all along. My husband asked about electrical question. He answered.

Perfect experience!
Clarence was punctual, professional, polite, and very knowledgeable. When I didn’t have the right lights to be installed he went to the store with me to help ensure I got the correct thing this time. He didn’t rush me in the store and even increased the job from the scope we initially discussed when he was onsite.
This all was for a project scheduled last night.
Moving forward all my electrical work will be through Clarence.

We couldn’t be happier with the fantastic service provided by Core Electric! They recently installed a 220-volt outlet in my kitchen for a new electric stove, making the switch from gas to electric seamless and stress-free. The team was professional, punctual, and extremely knowledgeable, ensuring the installation was completed perfectly. They went above and beyond to explain the process and even tidied up before they left. If you’re looking for top-notch electricians who deliver quality work with a smile, look no further than Core Electric. Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
