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 did a great job on our three or four small-ish electrical issues around the house -- fixed dead outlets, ran new lines in the house to accommodate higher electrical loads, installed a new exterior light and fixed our doorbell system, which had never worked! Impressed with his work ethic and quality of his work. Highly recommend, would definitely hire Ben again.

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!

Ben arrived the next morning after I found him on Thumbtack. He was early to the 8am appointment, and did numerous jobs throughout the morning in a professional and expedient way. He also found issues with some of the wiring in the house, and they were quickly resolved. Ben replaced ceiling fans, installed dimmer switches, installed light fixtures, and gave excellent advice about future projects. He is a kind and wonderful person, so willing to help, and reasonably priced. I would highly recommend Ben.
