HIRE THIS GUY!!! We bought a beater messed-up house with a pushmatic panel and very odd/dangerous wiring throughout. We got a few quotes and a bunch of electricians just gave us quotes and vanished or stopped responding, etc. Black dog was no nonsense, stuck to their word and did good work. Quote was reasonable in the amount of work we had done as well. Thanks so much! We'll definitely bring you back!

I received a same day response and was added to the schedule quickly. Kayne and Chad came out and quickly got to work. They were thorough, cleaned up after themselves, and were very nice. The price for the work seemed very reasonable. I would certainly use them again for any additional electrical work.

Phil with Black Dog Electric was prompt, friendly, and provided high quality work. He installed an extension to an outdoor outlet, changed out a chandelier, and replaced 2 outdoor light fixtures. He showed up at the scheduled time and cleaned up the work areas. Would use this company again.
