About
I love what I do even after all the years I've been doing it I still wake up every day happy to go to work I take pride and passion in doing electrical I was blessed to work with master electrician's that taught me never to take shortcuts and always do your best job
I enjoy it all there's nothing about electrical that I don't enjoy I love swapping out old panels and putting in the new ones and seeing how nice they look knowing I just made someone's home a lot safer and putting up cam lights or any type of light fixture knowing that I provided some good light to someone's home

Ricky did an excellent job with the electrical work at my property. He installed an outdoor lamp for me and also took the time to look at my thermostat. He was very kind, knowledgeable, and patient, and he spent the time needed to properly diagnose and fix the issue.
I highly recommend Ricky to anyone looking for a cost-effective, knowledgeable, and reliable electrician. He truly cares about his work and making sure the job is done right. I will definitely use him again for my future electrical needs!

I highly recommend I Love Electric! The electrician was incredibly professional, helping me choose the correct bathroom exhaust fan and handling the installation with precision and care. He was courteous, efficient, and ensured everything was clean and working perfectly before leaving. I couldn't be happier with the service and the level of expertise shown.
