Larry and Dave are outstanding electricians who take great pride in delivering exceptional quality work. They have skillfully installed more than a 100 of electrical openings (receptacles, switches, lights, can lights, washer/dryer, and etc.); 3000ft of electrical conduits and 12000ft of wires in my house. The work was done quickly, looks fantastic and, needless to say, passed rough inspection on the first try. They are professional, knowledgeable and pay attention to details. They took time to understand my needs and made intelligent recommendations. I strongly recommend them to anyone looking for an exceptional quality yet reasonable contractor for general electrical and lighting.

This is an update on the project that Larry and Dave started for me. My electrical work is still not finished. I have tried contacting Larry for about a month, but he did not return my calls or replied to email. David called three weeks later and offered to finish my house on a fixed hourly rate, which exceeds the remaining balance of the contract. At the moment, I have paid 80% of the contract amount for wiring, which does not meet my initial goals. So my advice, don’t rush with your payments until the work is fully complete. Also, these guys have aggressively cut on copper wires, and the majority of all circuits ended up being wired as multiwire branch circuits (shared neutral), which conforms to the national electrical code, but presents a major inconvenience to the homeowner. My recommendation is – hire an electrician who _can_ finish your job and will work with _you_ on meeting _your_ specific needs.
America's Best Electric's reply
This client changed the scope of work on a daily basis, proceeded to do the easy portions himself and then demanded a credit for the work he completed. He held out on payouts and did not honor the terms of the contract. Any negative action on my behalf was taken to avoid losing money on the project. It is not my customary behavior but was necessary after all terms of the contract were exploited by the customer.

I am a general contractor that has used Larry Hynda's firm America's Best Electric to complete electrical work on a number of remodeling projects over the past few years. He is an expert in his trade, shows up when he promises to and is efficient in completing his work.

I am a professional real estate investor. I use Larry exclusively for all my electrical work. He is prompt, professional, does good work at a fair price. Gives advice for best uses of lighting and proper wiring where there are deficiencies. Would recommend highly.

Larry Hynda at America's Best Electric replaced my existing 1980s track lighting with new recessed and pendant lighting and my place now looks fabulous (well the lighting is now fabulous..it's a start). He was prompt, efficient and at a fair price. HE did the work, along with Dave and did not hire out subcontractors which makes the process so much better. I would definitely recommend him for any electrical needs you may have. Super guy!!
