Sly installed our ceiling fan beautifully! We just moved and needed it done immediately for our newborn and he not only responded timely but had a next day appointment! 10/10 would recommend, super professional and quick install.

Sly Residential came out and fixed a very tough electrical issue. It was tough to figure out at least but my guy Slean never gave up on tracking down the problem until he found it and then fixed it. Thank You Slean for all the trouble shooting you did and not giving up on finding and fixing the problem. I highly recommend Sly Residential to anyone that needs electrical work and they do multiple other jobs too.
