I hired Collective Electric to upgrade my electrical service and panel to 200 amp for eventual home electrification. He also installed a few new branch circuits for me. Paul was great and easy to work with. He showed up when he said he would, did the work we agreed on, and brought me in for consultation any time a decision was needed.

Paul is the electrician you need! Hes in high demand, honest human being and very reasonable with pricing. I asked Paul to come and change an outlet for me, and instead of just doing it to make money, Paul advised me of a better plan. He even helped me think through a couple of other projects I have to do. Ill be recommending Collective Electric to everyone I know and Ill be hiring Paul to take care of some of my home electrical updates in the near future. Thank you Paul!!

Paul is awesome to work with. He pays attention to details and makes sure the job is done according to specs and done right. When he is finished with a job, you don't even know he was there because he also makes sure everything is cleaned up. Plus, your electrical issue is resolved. Thanks again, Paul.

I hired Collective Electric to fix a non-working light switch in my home, and I couldn't be more pleased with the service I received. The electrician was prompt, professional, and efficient in diagnosing and resolving the issue.
