Ray did a great job replacing a light and fixture and electrical outlet. He was neat and clean and finished the job quickly. He's a very nice and polite person and the price was much lower than I thought it would be. I will definitely call Ray again with my electrical needs. A++++ Thank You Ray!

My husband and I were very pleased with Ray. He got back to us regarding gut away. And he came the same morning we needed help. He was friendly from the moment he came to the door and a pleasure to talk to. Ray showed us everything he was doing and the problems he found. He was able to fix the issues that were affecting half our kitchen and our basement lights. It’s hard to choose someone when you have so many to choose from but we are so glad we went with Ray. We will surely call him again if we have any other electrical needs in the future. We recommend him to anyone.
