Timothy S. says, "We were having our water heater moved to an outdoor tankless, we were told it needed to have a dedicated circuit on our circuit board and an outlet installed before the plumbing work could be completed. We contacted Abel, he and his worker Luis came out the same day and had the work done within a couple of hours. They were both professional and the quality of work is outstanding. We would hire Abel and Electrical General Services again without hesitation and already have inquired about a few jobs to be completed in the near future. I cannot recommend Abel and his team enough for your electrical needs."See more

Switch and Outlet Installation

Great value
  • 170 hires on Thumbtack
Shravani B. says, "Akyl and Vadim did a fantastic job with the recessed lighting, drywall repair, and painting in our home. They are highly responsive, professional, and a pleasure to work with. They offered great suggestions and creative ideas for home improvements. The wall patch they completed looks seamless—you would never know it had been cut before. The recessed light installation was particularly challenging in the tilted roof areas, but they skillfully found a workaround that avoided cutting into the wall. Instead, they used the existing switch locations for wiring and installing the switches. They worked diligently and sincerely to give our home a fresh, brand-new look. Max from their team also did an excellent job with painting and replacing the existing recessed lights. We wholeheartedly recommend this team for any home repairs or improvements. Thank you, Akyl and Vadim, for your timely assistance and outstanding work!"See more
