Hired on Thumbtack

Mike Albarado strikes me as a genuinely nice and honest person. He replaced or installed 9 alarms of various types... smoke, smoke plus CO, CO only, and heat alarms in appropriate places. He did this at a fast clip. He was organized, punctual, professional, and capable, as well as responsive before during and after. He brought his soon-to-be-a-college student daughter along to assist and learn from him, which seemed at once helpful and touching. I will have him back in a couple weeks to do some more tasks that it is hard to find people willing to do (small jobs). I am glad to have his services available! Michael Bazin, Salisbury, MD

Michael Albardo did a fantastic job removing the old-style 5-blade ceiling fan and installing a new, modern one. He was very professional in offering recommendations and advice on other electrical matters.

Mike was awesome! He responded to our request on the same day and was able to get us on his schedule within a few days. We wanted a TV mounted and the wires hidden and he did exactly what we asked. He marked it on the wall before he hung it to make sure it was where we wanted it. He showed up at the exact time he said he would and he did not take long. We will definitely be using him again in the future!

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Listen to the customer to see what they need. Explain to them what I can provide.

I have worked with pros in many different fields for many years.
