Hired on Thumbtack

I need an GFCI outlet in my bathroom. I contacted Ben through Thumbstack and he return my call few minutes later and I hired him and scheduled for the work few days later. Ben came in time, he did a great job to run a new wire from the electrical panel to the bathroom, so he can installed a new outlet. I am very pleased with his work. I will hire him again for the electrical need in the future.

Ben is an absolute dream to work with. We had to have some wiring replaced on the exterior of the house that involved having bith CMP and the cuty to come oit. Ben coordinated everything and made sure the work was up to code and would keep us safe. He did an excellent job and we are looking forward to working with him again!

We hired Ben to take care of a number of different fixes around our house - bad wiring, new circuits, outlets not working, etc. He was honest and professional and answered all of our questions. I have already recommended him to others and plan to have him come back for some other projects.
